Thats a bummer man. Best way to get over the fear of a bad trip is to have a good one.

I have had bad trips before. I found that if you dive back in immediately like some would think would be the best the bad trip comes back. I noticed that on DMT each trip is a contiuation of a previous trip to some degree. The only thing I was able to do was go outside and spend a busy day or two in the malls and the world get my mind clear and then go back.

i'm with Vovin on this one...SWIM has gone on close to 100 journeys by now and none of them have been "bad"....however, he has had a couple that were "work". he had to really hunker down and dig his heels in..it wasn't just pure love-bliss. in both cases, SWIM just wanted to immediately go back and reclaim his "sweet spot" in hyperspace.....not the best idea....not because he got his nuts slapped or anything...but because this medicine shows you YOU. the purest, most unclouded-by-ego you imaginable. if you are in a funky space....or if set/setting aren't dialed in...it's best to table it. even when you think it's all good you can have, as s8 discovered, a rough one. listen to what you're being told/shown. meditate on what is going on inside of you and then go back when you feel you have sufficiently processed through it. there's no heroics with this sacrament.....that for damn sure!

LOVE AND GRATITUDE!

That's absolutely true! The relationship with the entities is a long-term development.

Sounds like this could be a setting problem S8. I would never do this under a street light, they spoil the night sky with their harsh monochromatic light. Hated them ever since I built my first telescope!

Good luck next time, quiet darkness recommended!

Also keep in mind there are 2 completely diffrent ways to trip. Eyes closed and open. If you keep your eyes closed yur mind will make it's own imagery whereas if your eyes are open the imagery is a result of what you are seeing. Try both, personally I preferred to keep my eyes closed as the journey was much more intense for me.

Yes. The occasional bad trip. Sometimes you come back shaking your head thinking--that could have gone better. With SWIM its always about the soul barter. They always want a piece of swims soul. They show swim it can go the easy way or the hard way. The easy way they show me images that are so beautiful swim could cry and swim gives them some of what they want. The hard way they show swim images of fighting, angry and menacing faces,etc and take away the bliss feelings. They are very business like. Much like a mugging at times. These images come and go with each turn of swims will. Swim just tells them 'hey, look, we all know there are going to be more visits so play nice'. It seems if you give them what they want, your will, then ecstacy ensues. Swim knows now to ignore the hyper-pests and just view the beutiful. THH also helps in this area. Sublingual 20mg plus 25-35mg spice and you have yourself a deal! The anxiety is lessened greatly, one almost doesn't mind that your soul is being milked a little. It seems worth it really. Where else can you see such sights for so little. (ignore the fine print)

anyway.saddle up S8. Good luck.
