Whats a bad trip even like?

The only people I ever hear talk about 'bad trips' is either people who haven't done drugs in the first place, or completely retarded people who have they actually done the drug they are talking(lying) about, the only reason why I would believe it is because they are so simple minded. I myself have never had one. One time I remember whenever I stopped scratching my head(dxm/molly), it would feel like my scalp was literally on fire. So I scratched my head for quite awhile. Til I forgot.. I think I smoked or something and it went away. It was pretty freaky at first though.

I could see if it was just a terrible day and you were stressed and in a terrible mood.. Then all your friends start being assholes or something it could turn pretty bad. But nothing you couldn't like.. Snap yourself out of.. The only way I see it happening was if you took a shitload and combination of a lot of things.. I don't even think 5 hits of acid could send me anywhere bad.. Ill say the same with even a half oz of mushrooms. Mixing them though I could totally see..

I don't know what are some of your guys' stories of bad trips? Because obviously they exist. I just wanna know what they are like from actual edumacated peoplez

bad trips come from expecting one thing

and getting another

inexperience and ' i think im superman' usually result in such

They are pure horror. Seriously they are fucking horribly

The more bad you think the more you fall. I had first hand experience with 650ug of lsd. Took it a bad time and place. I would explain more but thats one chapter in my psychedelic journey i nevr want to talk/experience again

going to Oklahoma for a funeral & getting caught with 2oz of your last harvest.. that is a very bad trip.

Yeah bad trips r fucking insane. Iv never had a bad trip from any hard drug but had one on salvia. I USED to smoke salvia all threw high school cuz 1) i enjoyed it and 2) my buddys always wanted to smoke it but they were to chicken shit so theyd buy some, back out and id get it for free lol. Well one day about a year ago (this is almost 4 years outta school) me and a few buddys bought a gram of spice and i got an 8th of 160x purple sticky icky salvia. We got threw the spice after a few hrs of kickin it so we start n on the salvia. My friends and i smoke enough to where theres only a bowl left and no one else wanted. So seeing as i had done it the most i said fuck it and cleared the bowl. Nothing outta the ordinary or special but this time was so beyond differnt. I exhaled and within 3-4 blinks it hit me. I literally blinked and EVERYTHING was different. I had absolutly no idea who my friends were, no idea where i was or any idea how i got there. My friends see the look on my face as im lookin around my buddys room and they knew i was n deep shit. I started freaking out asking where the fuck i was and everything. N my buddys room he has one window thats covered by a small sheet and i could tell it was dark outside (but no concept of time) and this really tripped me the fuck out. I thought i was n a small ass space capaule that had been shot off into the cosmos and randomly floating around. I started to lose my shit so i sat back and tried to tell myself i was just really high. I got enough sense to get up and run out his room and go outside for fresh air n hopes itd help... Bad, bad, bad move. It worked for a min when the cold air hit me at first but i started trippin balls again. I turned around and started to walk back into my buddys house with his help but theres a slanted brick walk way n front of his door and that was it. I started walking up these bricks and got this fucking crazy feeling like i was being sucked into a black hole. I started to loose my balance backwards so i thought the world was tipping on its side and that made me freak out stupid bad. It got to the point to where i fell off the face of the earth... I fell down n my buddys drive way and was falling off of earth. I looked twords my feet and could see the tops of ppls roofs and trees and cars flying by. It was like someone built a whole world on the side of a cliff and i dove off backwards so i could see it all. Shit was flying by so fast and i was flayling around like an idiot (o keep n mind this is like 2am) so my buddy trys to pick me up tp bring me inside but he was tryin to catch my arms and legs so i didnt hit him but to me it looked like he fell off the world to and was falling above me which made shit even more real cuz another physical person was n my trip. I would try and close my eyes but it was black. Not like literally black but my mind was black like it was empty. I didnt know who i was or what my name was or what my purpose n life was so id freak out and open my eyes and id still b falling past all these buildings and shit. Eventually i was able to fight it off enough to where i could gey up and walk inside but had to fight it for a long time after. Idk y that time was so differnt than every other time. I took 1 hit a few months later to see if it was just as bad and that 1 hit almost freaked me out cuz it was the same super fast come up. Just slammin high right off the bat with visuals almost instanly. I havnt touched salvia since and never will again. Sucks cuz i liked salvia but now... Fuck that. Im cool on that.

you just expereinced a break through

see what i mean about expectations

you expected it to be like it was

but becasue you actually got enough to break through and be presented wiht the full experience

it distorted and scared you, you know

its inexperienced people talking, bad time/place(cops), or overdosing. basically there is no bad trip, unless ur groovin and get arrested or you eat to much and dont know how long and hard its going to be. as far out as it is, when youve tripped a bunch you know what to expect enjoy some visuals or go on a nature walk to change the scene. my overdose taught me to not be a retard as scary as it was, good lesson=good trip, in hindsight
"the spigots spit stitches to fix the bridges in the gaps, but now the broken bridges give us straps and trying to walk and get stoges is like hopscotch between polar caps!

The closest thing to a bad trip I ever had was when I got locked up about the time it(LSD) was starting to kick in. They threw me in this tiny jail in bumfuk Missouri because of my idiot friend. As I was being put in the cell my buddy turns and runs right out of the place. So I was left alone in there while they were out looking for him. I didn't freak or anythingthing, but it was a bum deal to say the least. I have had dozens of good trips though.

In all honesty, you dont want to know...i think knowing could give rise to ypu thinking about that info while tripping, bringing on a bad trip.

Lets put it this way...its fucking scary. For many reasons, but one of them being that you cant trust yourself during a bad trip. Its like fractals or exponentials. All you can do is spiral downward in a chinese finger trap of insanity. And it lasts seemingly forever.

I still recall hearing carnival music in the backround (when none was playing) while I laid on the couch trying to wait for a bad trip to fade away.

Not fun. Be wise. You are not superman. Keep it up and you might have your first bad trip on five tabs of acid and have a horribly frightful story to tell one day too. But the story is totally not worth the experience.

I knew a guy when I was a kid that seemed pretty normal. He moved away and I saw him a few years later and he was totally different and slow. He told me he did a hit of lsd and it messed his mind up. He spent a little time in the psych ward. He advised me to never try it. I did not have the heart to tell him that I had been having a ball doing orange sunshine, purple microdot, and my favorite blue barrel. If I had seen this dude before I started messing with the stuff, I would never have had the balls to do it because he was seriously fucked up. I think maybe someone gave him something that was all strychnine. The lesson I took away with me was this: I never dropped anything else unless I knew for sure that someone else in the neighborhood had taken some from the same lot first.

Bad trip? I proposed to my ex while on lsd. That was a bad trip that lasted for years and cost $$$$$$.

Now that's scary.

A bad trip. There is not a set definition for one set individual. Everyone has there own version of a bad trip. However, a bad trip normally consist of homeostatic changes like over heating, sweating, confusion etc. Once a definitive body change has taken place one perceives it as a bad reaction thus leading to a reactive mentality that connotes the feeling of death and desperation. Entrapment does not feel good. And once the body feels trapped and isolated natural instincts try to insist that what's happening is unnatural in nature. The feelings evoked in a LSD or Mushroom experience is suppose to be that of transcedence. But many do not reach that level. They reach the level of satisfaction, that of uplifting euphoria. Transcendence erases the conscious and unravels the ego to decimating levels. If you're not looking for transcendence, your not looking for a wholly psychedelic experience!

LOL too funny!!! Bad trips suck. The first time I ever tripped on Geltabs LSD I bad tripped nasty it was horrible. I was watching the movie x men and I got trapped in the movie I thought I was wolverine it was crazy I would even feel when he would get hurt and I felt like I was in the movie it felt so real. The bad trip ended after a few hours when I remembered I was just tripping. Since I had never experienced it I didnt know what the fuck was going on and forgot I was even on it. After that the next time I did it I kept reminding myself I was tripping and it was the best trip ever after that trip was when I knew I was in love with Lucy.

My first time taking LSD I had a bad trip. I took it right before watching the Usual Suspects. I had a friend who had a psychotic episode a few days before and had just been committed. She was on my mind and I began to try to understand what it meant to be psychotic. I was on the escalator in the movie theater and my friend said something but I heard a different word so I gave him a different answer. That didnt make sense to him so he replied with something else I misinterpreted and so on and so forth until I realized that reality is just a concept , a collection of stimuli that everyone has an agreed upon reaction to and if you deviate from that reaction, you are thought of as crazy. Even if everything you see makes sense to you. And as the acid kicked in I started peaking at the time everyone was dying on the boat. On the way home I was tripping balls and everyone on the subway looked like demons. I ran into some friends who smoked me down and we played UNO the rest of the night.

Lsd... I think Im gonna go get some tomorrow actually.. Should be amazing!

Enjoy!

Make sure to have all your bearings straight before waltzing with the little she devil.

A bad trip. Good trip. It doesn't matter. If its genuine LSD it will change your life for the better!

My experience is people have bad trips when it gets too intense for them. 500ug in an unfamiliar setting taught me to give ms Lucy a lot more respect. I've taken much larger doses in safe enviroments and not had a problem. My ego just needed to get knocked down a few pegs. She can be a harsh one that Lucy. But she'll never give you more than you can handle. Even if you she is.

Ahhhhhhhhh I just ate 2 hits of these white blotter, here I come lucyland!! But mrE I believe lucy has given me way more than I can handle before. Especially when mixed with other drugs.. Jesus it rapes my soul apart. But like I said at first it never went wrong ever.. I got pulled over once after eating 3 tabs of alex grey blotter.. Jesus was that a close call. We had eaten2 before and then I had the third one on my tongue 2 hours after the initial ingestion and the dumbass cop didn't even catch on to my teeth-biting-lip smile and slander.

i have yet to to acid but i have done mushrooms, just about everytime has been great. there was only one time i considered a bad trip, and it was more depressing than anything, normally after i trip things seem more clear to me,and i see thing in a different light, im happy, having fun withoutout a care in the world. this trip however was well like i said depressing, and rather than things making sense, it was a jumble of confused chaos. things that i was once sure of i began to requestion and think about and was again unsure and lost. i felt like the things i wanted to acheive in the future were unobtainable or impossible. however once i left and went to my house, all those feelings dissapeared. and i felt well. what i learnd about that night is when u start to feel ur trip go sour, try to change ur enviroment. go to a place where u feel at peace. with no bad feelings surrounding that place. also the ppl ur with play a big part. i feel like almost everytime i trip. what u do and ur emotions effect the whole group. so dnt trip with a pesimistic person, if there overwhelmingly being a downer it may bring the group down, however if the other group member are having fun and being happy, it may bring the pesimist out of his/her dark thoughts, and help them to see things in a different light. what else i would say is, find a friend u have that is full of life always making u laugh and unless you rele think hard, havent had a bad day u can remember. these are the ppl u trip with, my buddy greg is one of those ppl and he made my trip a great one, and one last thing. dnt trip with ppl u r unsure about or have second guesses about.
