    hi i need some help trying to get back to my normal self. ive done shrooms like, 10ish times and the first 9 times were fantasticcc i loved it. but the last time that i did shrooms i had a really really bad trip. i thought i was dead and that there was police tape all around me and i couldnt remember who i was or who my friends were or anything. i was looking at my friends and i didnt know who they were and i thought they were police undercover people and i was basically going to die again. it was like i was in this reality that i saw in Dali paintings and .. it was terrifying for real. i got really sick also.. basically it was a really horrific experience for me.

    so its been about two months since this happened and now every time i think of shrooms i get really sick to my stomach and get really scared and paranoid. i really liked shrooms though and im scared that i'll never be the same.

    my friends want me to try it again and maybe it will undo the scariness of that trip but even just typing about it now i feel scared and anxious and sick to my stomach.

    do you guys have any tips or similar experiences that could maybe help me get over this? thanks!

    u should of just relax and chill think that all of this is not real..
    use those words from dr. timothy leary-

    Whether you experience heaven or hell, remember that it is your mind which creates them. Avoid
    grasping the one or fleeing the other. Avoid imposing the ego game on the experience.
    You must try to maintain faith and trust in the potentiality of your own brain and the billion−year−old life
    process. With you ego left behind you, the brain can't go wrong.
    Try to keep the memory of a trusted friend or a respected person whose name can serve as a guide and
    protection.
    Trust your divinity, trust your brain, trust your companions.
    Whenever in doubt, turn off your mind, relax, float downstream.

    Your mind will also naturally try to keep you away from things that have made you sick.
    It's called classical conditioning and it can happen suddenly if it was a real system shock

    basically what happens is if you eat/take something and you get sick (even if it is completely unrelated) your mind will give you the same sick feeling if you ever smell/taste/think of it so that you won't go back and try it again.

    this happened to me and lucky charms. i had eaten them at my day care the day i got the flu and ever since then I can not stand the taste or smell of them.

    This might sound crazy, but try a low dose of another psychedelic. When I dropped acid, I didn't have a "bad trip" per se, but there were some uncomfortable moments, and the trip left me shaken. A few days later, I ate about 2 grams of shrooms, and had a moderate trip. It really helped me come to terms with my L experience, and while I'm still a little nervous about dosing again, I'm looking forward to it.

    Of course, your experience seems much more extreme than mine, so my advice might not apply.

    ^it isnt the best argument though. anybody abusing a substance in the wrong way in the wrong situation can end in horrible results.

    as for the op, if u dont want to do shrooms right now, fuck em theres plenty of psychedelic fish in the sea waiting to be explored by your mind. try new things, keep an open mind and keep the dose's low. time heals all wounds and eventually this trip will be a thing of the past, a faded memory, and u will be tripping on mush and not know what u were so worried about. in the mean time like i said theres plenty of other substances waiting to be taken buy you.

    honestly, a bad trip fucks you up for a while, i had this after an insane night on a head full of LSD. but its possible to get over, and i did, and did it about a month after, only 1 hit though, no way i was doing more.

    but when you go into it, just have absolutely positive thoughts, smoke some buds, laugh, and then just good vibes, good vibes. you should probably do it in a sheltered environment, with only people that you trust because thats what i did and it completely worked.

    and just make sure you don't need to make any kinds of important decisions or don't do something that'll get you confused, or paranoid, or give you bad vibes.

    if you're gonna try to work through it with another psychedelic, i'd try ecstasy. it's pretty hard not to have an experience of pure love and positivity and harmony.

    bad trips are awful, but they make you stronger.

    i'd just recommend restoring yourself before taking another trip. find a form of ecstasy within yourself and bring it to the table next time you trip and the synergy will be awesome. don't take another psychedelic expecting it to heal you if you're still soured from your last bad trip
