If I’d have to describe my average weed experience in a few words, it would be fun, warm, soft, calm, soft fuzzy blanket
If I’d have to describe my few psychedelic experiences similarly (mushrooms only), it would be cold, hard, sharp, alone and from one horror trip (I was given way too much and after hours of nothing, smoked a little weed which I regretted 10 seconds later) chaos, mayhem, extreme loneliness from being the only person alive in the universe
Wife has similar experiences and after our last fucked up trip vowed to never again try it.
Are these experiences typical? I see so many positive experiences but I hated the cold and lonely feeling I had with it every time. How could I have a pleasant trip with shrooms, or say, lsd even?


Only typical during a bad trip for me.
Maybe try a different form of shrooms? For me if i just eat shrooms whole i feel a bit upset in the stomach and that can affect my trip. Instead i make a shroom tea and that gets out some of the stomach ruining shit and my trips are great.
Also don’t trip when you’re in a bad head space. If you think you’re going to have a bad trip you probably will.
