Sister doesn't mind being a labrat

5meo-dmt was hands down Sisters most frightening experience, but she would do it again.

So her answer is dmt, not sure how to add that to your poll though dmt-tripper . . .

^^^^^^

I NEED you to add a vote button, please!

Is this being cranky? To ask you please to leave cannabis out of this?
How is that cranky? Can you please explain?

Are you crazy?

I asked you "please" to choose one! I did NOT tell you to choose one!

Read this again. And if you quote me will you PLEASE not leave out things like that



How do you like me to put it to you so I don't offend you?

I don't know why you can't vote. I just made a poll and it was working fine then. And I didn't put any time limit on it.
How do I fix this?

Hmm I'm not sure what the technical glitch is either. I havent been able to vote in the last few polls I tried to vote in.

My vote is for......


Shrooms.

Well, you gotta put a start and end date on it would be my guess.....

Well it says to leave it blank for no limit.

Forgive my ignorance, but I feel that anyone who said Cannabis has not experienced a true bad trip. I'm not talking about a panic attack, I'm speaking of a ride to hell and back. Truly, Cannabis can not create anything like the immense pain and suffering that I experienced on acid. A real bad trip, nothing like, "Oh, weed boosts my anxiety and I get really scared".

But to answer the OP, from all of the information I have encountered over the years and experienced, I would say the average person is more likely to have a bad trip on shrooms. It is in fact, the only drug I have ever had a bad trip on while in a positive state of mind.

That's my two cents.

Oh, by the way, the poll is a glitch in the software and is not due to the OP. I have experienced many a glitch during my short time on these boards. The software isn't anywhere near the quality of vB, IPB, or even phpbb2/3.

I have had multiple experiences of laying paralyzed on my bed for hours while my consciousness spins into the abyss.
The issue was full body awareness the entire time...entirely convinced mind was lost while body lived on.
A living death, separated for eternity.

I feel this qualifies as a bad trip.

Yeah, trust me, I've had my fair share of truly bad trips on psychedelics, but nothing really compares to the utter level of confusion and fear that I feel when on cannabis. It just really doesn't agree with some people. Everyone is different!

Eat a couple of tablespoons of full strength cannabutter made with some high end bud and get back to me. No, don't do that.

I've had some bad trips. One night on about 8 hits of good blotter I got at a show in the 80's, I was on fire for about 6 hours while my dead mother kept laughing at me while my adopted mother yelled at me about what a loser I was. It would mellow out and star all over again. Looping for about 8 hours. I've had some pretty bad trips. I actually started keeping a good dose of diazepam, a chloral hydrate and a placidyl on hand just in case I needed to abort. I aborted once, with valium and placidyl after a friend and I foolishly took a quarter sheet each. Hey, I was 18. I was stupid.
I've had some really horrible trips, where I considered suicide. None of them came close to a bad cannabis experience.

Maybe it's just some people.

There still seems to be a problem with the voting.
Of the three substances i would choose LSD. Mushrooms though, can come in poor quality, containing toxins that cause unpleasant sensations.
But i think with good mushrooms like the celebrated hawaians, or with pure psilocin or 4-AcO-DMT, wich i would categorise as 'shrooms' still, i think having a bad trip is far less likely than with LSD. Ofcourse, when you take too much shrooms it get's crazier than just a very large dose of acid. But still i find that acid is more fucked-up than most other psychedelic's.

High doses of cannabis are close to acid in this regard, but that substance isn't included in the poll.

The most fucked-up psychedelic i know is chaliponga, though. Not included either, but it should be. Whether it contains 5-MeO-DMT is still an issue of debate, but let's say that people who've taken both find them very simmilar in effect. My experience is confined to chaliponga, so i can't judge whether it's very much like 5-MeO-spice or not, but i can say that it's most definately more mindfucking than LSD, shrooms and DMT combined. Of all the psychedelic's i'm familiar with, this stuff is the most of a white-knuckle-ride. It realy is.

Cannabis can fuck you up indeed. But the sheer panick of a bad-trip on LSD is something else entirely. If you're not familiar with that feeling than you're realy lucky, because you realy don't want to know what it's like.

No, I disagree. There are different kinds of scary. A bad weed trip might be a different kind of "bad" compared to a bad tryptamine trip, but bad weed is a legitimately bad time.

Yeah, but cannabis has this sedating quality to it. It can fuck you up quite well, i'm well aware of that. But i think it's realy not as bad as a bad-trip on acid. Mostly because it's easyer to find some kind of calmness again. On an acid bad-trip, you're realy fucked.

In swim's experience it's more common for people to have a bad experience on mushrooms than lsd. But a bad mushroom experience tends to level out after an hour or two, if you get yourself into a bad space early on into an lsd trip you have the potential to spend the next 10 hours begging for mercy.

edit: It's pretty rare on all three really and usually relates a bad set and/or setting in most cases.

I've smoked for 8 years, usually only high quality or medicinal marijuana, and I have only experienced a single panic attack, and I would have had it anyways. I own many vaporizers and have had many edibles, I don't think it can compare. I've been known to smoke as much as an ounce in a sitting (with a person or two) and at least an eighth to a quarter a day - in reality I've only seen lightweight marijuana smokers have "bad trips".
