Thinking of embarking on a trip alone.

Right guys n girls ive used libs for nearly a decade, and am thinking of having a trip alone.

What do you guys think of tripping alone ? and what do you think of me doing it outside whilst set up camping on a quiet fishing lake ( Because i night fish alone often anyway )

Anything you would like to add would be appreciated, eg, comforting things to do when tripping alone etc ..

 

i love tripping alone,
just make sure you are ready for it. you have to remember that there wont be anyone there to calm you down if anything wrong happens.


i've never tripped outside alone, only with others with me (ones tripping, and ones not)
after my peak i've also taken walks after spending the day with people, and i was fine for the few hours after that...


i write a lot of my poetry when i'm alone, i also like to draw, color, watch movies, play my instruments, anything that you like to do and have a passion for you could do then.


good luck and have lots of fun!

 

Go for it! I prefer to trip alone sometimes.

 

no less than 4 grams. alone, dark room, no sensory input.

needs to be done at least once a year. its like running a disk defragmentation on your brain. a psychic house cleaning of sorts.

 

youve been shrooming for a decade and never tried them alone? O_O

alone is a whooooole other story man. Tripping with people and tripping alone are two different things. I don't even know if tripping with people prepares you for tripping alone in some cases.

its the shit man. its where real work gets done. very very healthy. enjoy and enjoy.

 

I'd say it's high time for a loner trip if it's been a decade.
It's great, as much as I like a friend or two, alone you can do anything you want, without question.
Have fun.

 

i need to do this

 

I agree with all the above statements, great fucking idea. I love to sit on the ground and play some music by myself, eventually this leads to long periods of meditation and maybe some light yoga.

Disk defragmenter for the brain huh? Damn good simile, damn good.

 

Yea tripping alone is really how to experience a trip. When your alone its just you and the trip, you will face yourself, and you will experience who you truly are. Plus you are free, totally free to go all out, to do whatever you must do, move whatever way you must move, think whatever thought you must think. Anyway to express yourself, to release all the blocked energy inside of you, all your thoughts and emotions cleared up. Then you can sit. And when you sit you are free to sit still with no one asking you any questions. You must decipher things with your self. Then you will move into yourself, you will close your eyes and it will no longer be the back of your eyelids, it will be new dimension, a reality behind your eyes. You are not tripping, you are the trip. This is what they call samadhi.

 

Thanks theres some real nice ideas there ..

And yep Mr writer, i can fully appreciate how tripping with friends will be nothing like tripping alone .. tripping has allways been a small social thing between 2 - 6 people, me and my friends ( just the way its allways been )

Inthydreams, What you posted was just what i needed to fully decide on this, For me to be totally free imersed in my own trip without distractions, no one asking questions to interupt my journey.
As a side note i find reading a lot of your posts intresting in general.

This is going to be be beutifull, i now have a real good feeling about this.

Thanks for all replys not just the ones ive personally answered, and anyone else got anything to add then please feel free to tell of your solitary tripping experiances ..

Thanks again ..

 

Good Luck! I prefer tripping alone for all the reasons others mentioned. It's supposed to be an enlightening, liberating journey.. It can be near impossible to do that with people keeping you tied down.

 

Glad I could help. Happy trails friend!

 

My recipe for the ultimate solo trip.

1. Plan an overnight camping trip to the most remote location you can manage.
Try to get as far away from civilization as possible but not so far you can't walk out in an emergency.
Pick somewhere that gives you the least possibility of being fucked with by people. Preferably foot access only.
Don't worry about camping gear other than clothing and a little water. You won't need a sleeping bag or tent cause you won't be sleeping...

Oh and leave your electronics at home (cellphones, music players, etc...)

You should have something to light a fire. Even if you you don't plan on having one.


2.Make sure to get plenty of rest and eat well a couple of days before your trip.


3. Be well settled in to your ideal location before you consume the shroomage.
Wait until dusk or later to eat um.


4. If you can have a fire, get it going before you start to trip hard...

Just a small fire is all you need. Think "Indian fire" not "white man fire"
Build a really safe small fire pit surrounded with rocks.

Be carfull!
It won't look too good if the morning papers headline reads,
"Drugged out hippie charged with negligent arson"


5. Leave all thoughts of your everyday world behind.

Listen to the sounds of the night and stare into the night sky.

If you are out with a good moon, large uncluttered landscapes like grass covered hills make great canvas for large visuals...

let the sounds and visions of the ancient shaman come to you.....

Thanks everyone, all realy good sound advice ..

So now its just gonna be " When " as ive got my setting sorted etc, just gonna wait untill i decide its the right time, then ill delve into my first solo trip.

And Zombiewolf, surely taking a tent and bed stuff would make sense ? i mean i will be using my angling gear, proper comfort stuff for the chilly comedown ..
Rock solid tent, and wicked bed to relax on.

 

Naw, leave all that shit at home. Its a mushroom trip not a fishing trip!

The point is to take as little extra stuff as possible.
Keeping track of equipment and stuff is just a drag when trippin' imho...


You'll have all the entertainment you need just from the acid. (Edit:whoops, I mean mushrooms)
Yeah, bring stuff so you don't get cold on the come down,
But when you finally do come down , just go home and sleep in your bed...:cheers2:

Yeh im getting you zombie, but i do like a bit of comfort, and its getting cold / wet wintery season over here in the uk now ..

The last few times this is how ive tripped with shrooms but with mates, and we all camp up at the lake, but just thought similar set up but solo tripping, and no mates with me aswell.

Suppose ive just contradicted my opening question with this post ...

Anyways ill find my way, and if i dont ill have fun loosing the way if you get me ..

 

Just don't wander onto the moors and get attacked by a werewolf.

 

fucking knowledge :cheers2:

 

Gratsi! :cheers2:

The best trip I've ever had was alone. For the best results, I recommend the following preparation for tripping alone:

1) Do it in a dark, silent room, as dark and silent as possible
2) Have drinkable water and written utensils and paper nearby if you plan on writing stuff down (because you may want to relay something back in writing when you realize you AREN'T ALONE ANYMORE)
3) Clear your thoughts beforehand through meditation, focus, etc.

I also recommend lying down and closing your eyes, and letting go. Just let go and let it do what it wants. The less activity and stimulus the better. You will be guided towards whatever it is that is there awaiting your arrival. Prepare to meet a presence, something other than yourself. You may very well realize, as I mentioned above, that you are not alone.

Good luck and have fun...
