Just remember your world hasn’t ended, and I know it’s been said a million times over but time really will heal all scars

I don't think of them as "bad" trips necessarily. I almost think of them as a mini heroes journey. The terror and despair is part of this journey,.....and once you make your way past the monsters and demons, a overwhelming feeling of triumph and enlightenment is achieved.

Bad trips just want to teach or show you something you were likely not prepared to accept. Work on acceptance and on sending love even to the darkest parts of yourself and of others. Love is the ultimate cure for anything.

I've had three dozen trips, most between 2-4 grams and several over 5. The most terrifying was 1.5 grams of Ape, but it was an abort the cap was black...it was like quadruple potent. Nothing is scarier than expecting a low level light trip and getting blasted into a Hindu temple with Shiva in your room

This was so needed for me. I haven’t tripped in about a year and that last trip messed me up. I had 6 grams and had only had 2-3 previously. I’m pretty sure it was laced with lcd or dmt because my trip felt like it lasted over a year. I was stuck in a loop trying to figure out who I was and what I was doing, and my friends all had the exact same trip weirdly enough. It was a very scary trip but it made me appreciate life and made me want to stay away from them for a long time and enjoy life how it is, not wanting to understand everything about myself.

I experienced pure, unadulterated suffering on mushrooms a week ago. For 6 hours I was at the edge of a match being struck by the purple feminine presence that’s there for me whenever I trip. Being in the moment and being taught a million things at once is exhausting beyond belief. Time was so far out of my understanding and so was empathy and emotion in general. All of my senses blended into one general perception. I actually considered asking my father to kill me, but I was so far gone that death didn’t even feel like an end to the pain. I was faced with infinity and was shown what it was like to know everything. If you have nothing left to learn or experience, life is pointless. I couldn’t even get out of my bed, but when I had to piss I crawled to a bucket in my room and couldn’t help but throw up. I couldn’t piss without throwing up so I just pissed into the bucket while kneeling on the floor and dry heaving over and over. Peeing felt like I slit my throat and was bleeding my life force out. Dry heaving felt like giving birth to hell itself. We all experience little doses of suffering while sick or when I loved one dies, which can be compared to dipping a chip into some salsa. I experienced the salsa with no chip. Pure suffering with no vehicle to bring the suffering to me. Just pure and infinite emptiness. I still struggle with little flashbacks to that night and little poofs of a feeling of meaningless. Overall it was a good experience because any emotional or physical pain I’ve felt over the last week has felt so minimized. Like the mushrooms made me suffer to broaden my tolerance to give me some breathing room in real life. I went into the trip thinking “just show me something, something I need” and the purple feminine presence said “strap in cowboy” and winked. Then continued to drag me down the highway by my ankles. Gotta love it.

Thanks for the video, I had a bad trip about 4 months ago where I took too much for the first time. I underestimated the drug like I always do, it's usually with edibles. This time I was in Amsterdam, and took 15g of truffles (not dried shrooms). The woman at the shop undermined how strong these were. When I told her I was halfling the box with my mate, she said no, you won't feel much, take one each. I was walking near the red light district while we ate them going from bars to coffee shops when it started hitting, so immediately I had put myself in a horrible position. At first, it felt like a come-up of MDMA or something, but then the visuals and the patterns started to occur, it was nice though. About 2 hours in when I was watching people playing pool, my sense of distance between objects became really hard to judge. Then extreme anxiety started kicking in, you know that feeling when you are becoming too fucked up to be around people, so we had to leave. It was around 6pm now getting dark, poring down with rain and we didn't know how to get back to our hostel because I couldn't physically look at my phone for directions. There was no way of determining how to get back because I was in a mind loop and I couldn't make sense of things. Eventually, my friend (who was also on truffles; we had no trip sitters) managed to get us on the metro. On the way back, this is where it became extremely intense, with visuals and thoughts I cannot explain. I remember looking down the metro as we were turning and thought the carriage was never-ending. I remember having classic psychedelic thoughts such as seeing different dimensions and having a wave of ecstasy going throughout my body. When I got back to the hostel I felt damaged from the experience, I remember feeling I'm never going to come down or be sober again, especially when a random girl came in the room to sleep and I couldn't hold up a simple conversation because I was still not sane. The next day I had a migraine all day, I reflected on the bad decisions I made that night, and I realised I hadn't drunk or eaten anything during my trip. Sorry about this big paragraph, I just needed to write down my story. Feel free to comment, thanks guys...

my bad tripped showed me that there are people in my life who I rlly shouldn’t associate with anymore and it’s my choice to choose who I be around. I don’t have to be friends with everyone and that if they’re an ass than why waste time with them, find ppl who lift you up and look to help you with your goals.

Had a real bad trip the other day. My heart was beating so loud that it became the rhythm of everything I did, I started expecting it to stop beating. I then lost all sense of time and place and truly believed I had died. I was talking to what I thought was my conscience (turns out it was my neighbour) and went through different stages of regret, denial, then a reluctant acceptance but I truly believed I was gone and in a never ending cycle. I had so many regrets and thought I’d never see my wife and daughter again. I woke up the next day like Scrooge mcduck and felt like I had been brought back from the afterlife. It’s left a lasting impact and I now feel very anxious and exhausted but it’s help me realise that my thoughts on death are not healthy and I’ve decided to see a therapist about it.

Mindset is so important for these experiences! You gotta teach yourself to go into the experience with a completely open mind as you never know where you could go ! And it’s good to have bad trips if you can go through them with an open mind and let yourself know that you will be ok and normal soon! It’s hard stuff to explain but just do as much research as possible!

As a fellow northerner who has spent many a night on The Curry Mile, it just sounds like a regular weekend in Manchester😃 Seriously though this is a good grounded commentary on these challenging experiences

On my second mushroom trip I had the worse experience ever. I lost touch with reality and that's the reason why I am here. I have no idea what the trip tried to show me but man it was scary. I have never been afraid of anything in my life. The trip literally shook my world. I'm ok I guess but for some reason I keep thinking about It and can't stop and its making feel out of it. I hope I can come to terms with it. In do time

I like too call them challenging trips , last one I had was 7g of PE mushrooms. All it did was taught me too lose my ego and respect psychedelics . That was 2003

This helped so much man, replaying it over and over

This is the video I was looking for

This is a legendary video idea IMO and will help people over time. This sort of personal advice from people who have had uncomfortable experiences and gotten past them is not really that easy to come by. I think these bad experiences can be really helped by writing it down. I don’t know why exactly but I think it’s because these trips can be so terrifying and confusing that details will constantly be remembered and interrupted differently by yourself trying to make sense of them that writing it down give you some grounding to reconcile it. Anyway thanks again mate I’ve commented on another video before of this for this exact reason.

Great video, you sound so casual but don't realise how enlightening this was. Thanks so much.

Really needed to hear this video while I was trippin to calm me down

I really like your channel man. Thanks for all the content you post !

i draw when i come out of a mushroom trip makes me feel at peace and keeps my mind off the bad parts of my trip thankyou vivec :)

This was definitely what I needed to watch after having a bad trip yesterday night

Oh sweet a great new video from Vivec 🎉❤ love you

I had my first bad trip and won’t touch shrooms again, I don’t feel like I used to and I’m more panicky and stressed everyday

thank you for this my friend

I had a very scary trip about 5 months ago, I have tripped since and even then this one sticks in my mind so strong. It truly was one of the scariest moments of my entire life. I was caught in the aftermath for weeks after. I was genuinely terrified. It was the strongest trip of my life even though it wasnt my highest dose. It was incredible in many facets looking back. I experienced lifetimes, eons, time loops, intense fractal and full 3d geometry. It was incredible, but my ego was clinging on strong and my mind wasnt prepared for ego death.

Haven’t recovered from a mdma trip. So ima watch this to see what’s up

i looked into darkness too long and darkness looked into me, shit it was scariest thing in my life, like I felt unavoidable sense of doom, and everything felt without meaning, but I kind of took my lesson from it, but it surely wasn’t worth it

this is an important topic.

Nice fish, and and bird!

I’ve done 🍄 4 times never lsd yet, I feel so different and empty in the head feels like I will never be the same

Bad trips at the end of the day are kinda good ones cuz how much you learn from them

Just Saturday i went on a 10g trip of PE where at my peak i became literal God and stood on top of a mountain of my trauma and suffering, and had conquered it all. Then the crash happened. The mushroom was telling me that i need to complete the peak and give myself the most ultimate of releases, and that was suicide. I obviously fought the mushroom and didnt do it, but i was so conviced that i still had committed it that i fully believed i was living in the spirit realm, and i was just an entity. I was completely detatched from reality. I could not distinguish between what was real, what was a memory, and what was a thought that was conjured up in my head. I was so scared i had actually done it that i had to get up and check and make sure the door to my gunsafe was still locked shut. Over the next however long though i began to reassemble my brain, and reassemble it how i wanted it to be. Im still not 100% ok from that experience, but i do think that it was something that i needed and something that will help me in the long run. Im still struggling with believing that im actually alive right now too, and im struggling with understanding reality, but it has gotten better since my trip and im sure that in a week or two i will be ok. It was not a light trip, but it was one that i needed and one that i wanted.

After many great trips man last night was different felt like my thoughts/memories were being looped but being chopped up with false/dark endings felt like I was in a whole different dimension and realizing that I was in to deep into these false thoughts/scenarios caused me to panic I thought I was becoming one with my bed truly felt like I was dying getting reminded with every wrong I’ve done in my life left & right questioning my purpose in this life diving from this scenario with this person to instantly creating a different situation with another person to having that feeling of I’m slowly losing control of my own body parts to the feeling of my senses spazzing like crazy felt like I would turn on my phone and felt like everything I was trying to read didn’t make any sense to me I would check social medias constantly refreshing just to see if was I alive and in a real world but it felt like nothing made sense when trying to figure out how to use my own phone truly wanted to call 911 but I knew I would be dealing with heavy consequences if I didn’t just ride the extreme wave out trip lasted around 6 hours ( took 6 grams for my 6th time ) One thing I learned on the comedown is man I have a lot of changes to make & work to do.

Stop calling them "BAD", start calling them CHALLENGING. Remember... ✋EVERYTHING TEACHES🤚

Bad trips can teach us a lot about our individual lives and the world. However bitter experiences also serve another purpose. They allow the uninitiated and the nubs to let go of what we cling to without needing to be Jedi Bodhisattva types who can move on at will. If you're happy and safe, then there's nothing motivating you to surrender. In fact it motivates you to cling harder and to fear or despise letting go. During my first satori experience I was told by Source that that's why old age and death are so awful. It's spiritual lubricant to facilitate moving on from the illusions of life that we're so utterly invested in and trapped by.

Legendary mate! 🌞 Thank you for your content 🙏 💎 🎶 "the hard ain't easy, but the easy usually isn't worth it" 🎶 'Dialated Peoples' ~ Show Me the Way

i just woke up from a bad trip and I feel so confused thank you

i took a tab of 200 then i had 2 cones... natrally i started thinking i was in a simulation and cut my trip off

I’m so thankful for this content I’ve been going thru the after effects of a bad trip like the depersonalization n derealization n I smoked sum weed after the trip n the first time smoking after the trip it was ok but the second time caused the DP.DR. to get much worse n now I can’t even enjoy weed or use it to calm my anxiety the same sense. I know with time it should get better tho. But a part of me wonders if I tripped again would it fix the DP.DR.?? Cuz while I was tripping I felt completely real n when I came down I felt like a glow almost but when I smoke again it caused like ptsd of the trip n that gave me the DP.DR. Much worse then bf I don’t really remember there being much DP.DR. After the trip but after smoking the weed it put me in a full DP.DR. Mind set So I’m wondering what y’all might have to say about tripping again to get rid of the DP.DR. Or is that just a really bad idea???

I had a bad LSD trip about 4 month ago, I was having a good time at first but then all of a sudden I had the worst sesation ever, my body felt sick, I could see devil faces on the floor, even when I found a trip sitter, the bad trip wasn’t ending, I felt crazy and depressed, but then the next month I saw shodows watching me two times, I saw an anime poster turn into a demonic face whit a big smile, I could hear voices, then I tried smoking and all the demonic sensation/hallucination came back, now it’s been a while, I’ve been sober, I’m wondering if I can smoke weed again but I am scared to try, I hope all of this gonna finish soon. If you have any advice how to heal pls tell me I’m open.

12g mushroom trip report. Murdering all of my friends First a bit of backstory. I have quiet a bit of experience with psychadelic substances mainly acid but also and dmt. I have tried mushrooms once befor this trip and had a great experience meeting several entities in one sitting and i'm planing on writing about those too but first i wanna share what i experienced today in order to comprehend what was happening to me. It was around 7pm when i took the mushrooms. I crumbled them over a piece of white bread and choclate cream. The taste of the mushrooms is simmilar to walnuts in terms of consistency and taste but they are a lot more bitter, kind of like the aftertaste of wallnuts if you eat to many of them but as the main taste of the mushrooms. After eating the sandwich i started playing the game "High on Life". Everything went well for the first two hours and i had a lot of fun while playing the game and the mushrooms started to show their effect. I hade a quiet pronounced body high. My chest started to feel very light and i was not longer able to tell if the game was supposed to look like it did or not but i could clearly tell that i was tripping based on looking at my arm hair which started to look like it was floating above my skin rather than growing out of it. I kept playing for about 10 more minutes befor i was no longer able to. I layed back on my chair and stared at the ceiling which started to morph and make geometric patterns kind of like an hourglass. Then i closed my eyes and there was a green glowing ball with hexagonal holes in it. It also morped between the green and a redish pink collor kinda like a watermelon. I openned my eyes for a short momend and closed them again. I found myself in a snowy forrest whith pine trees but not only that i was POV inside of a creature with Muscular arms kinda like a wearwolf and he held one of my friends in his right arm. My friend was just hanging there and the creature just crushed their already lifeless head. I could hear the cacking noise it made and it sounded so real. i also saw blood spilling out inbetween the fingers of me (during the trip i was thikning the creature was me). Then i openned my eyes again and closed them and this creature had another friend of mine in his arms and crused it the same way. After that it started hunting for the next person and in the distance was another person and it lunged at him at an impossible speed and sunk it's claws into the persons ribcage and forced it open with ease and it was already looking for the next person. Those people wher all my friends and this creature somehow was connected to my mind and was hunting for whatever fiend that came to my mind. Then i openned my eyes again and felt horrible for what i just did and i started to relive the time when i was depressed and alone in my room with noting to do and no friends just thinking about kiilling myself. I also thought about all the friendgroups i got kicked out of and had to relive those moments too. It was almost like i was trapped to relive all thos bad experiences again and again. Aftermath. Eventho this was a horrible trip and i whish noone to have such an experience i also think it was an important lesson for me. This trip brought to light my fear of being disliked by other people and always having a mask on to protect others from seeing wo i really am. I also learned that this beast only attacked the people i consider true friends and i have talked about it with them and it also gave me the opportunity to mention some things that bothered me a bout them. Overall it strengthedn the friendship between them and me and it showed me that these people if found, i can absolutely trust them with anything. Eventho this was a bad trip i am glad i got to experience this and i would not undo it if i could.

Easy bro love your videos, I'm based in wolverhampton, I've got hppd man so if you wanna chat to me about anything for a video give me a shout happy to spread some light on how it's been the past few years

So i was on shrooms (my most recent+last time) and i had a major panic attack (found out my girlfriends mom was coming home, spoiler alert she never came home that night) and ever since that night my personality i feel has changed more feminine kinda not in a weird way more in a way that im just more emotional about stuff or at least emotionally aware unlike before and i want to be like myself again

What do you think about bad trips triggering schizophrenia? I feel like I have these thoughts only since doing acid. And whilst they’re not horrible where I’m thinking of doing anything drastic, I feel like I can have these weird thoughts that might change how nervous I am for a couple of minutes. How can I recover from this?

How long did it take you to recover? I thought I was being kidnapped by friends and police running through streets barefoot, took 15 cops to subdue me in the end and had to be choked out to stop me running into traffic as I was too strong for anyone to hold me down.. this is a year ago

It was my 2nd time doing acid and the tabs where double dipped and extra potent for my gfs graduation and it was just me and her we both took them I did 2 tabs (bad idea) she did 3. The first 3 hours was fun but then literally with a flick of a switch .1000 seconds later everything just started pulsing with negative colors I could feel the negative energy and it happend to us at the same time we looked at eachother and asked “ur feeling this right now to right) well not only am I dumb but I am so so stupid because I have heart problems I had open heart surgery and the trip I had was just telling me imma die and I would see hearts beating and busting open and at one point me and my gf had the same trip we where In absolutely sync we’d look at eachother at the exact same time and we couldn’t make eye contact even tho in our heads we knew everything we both where gonna say and do it was such a terrifying feeling and keep in mind right before it peaked our dumbasses went ham on some dab we had so that definitely blasted us off I couldn’t see anything in reality just felt like I was already dead no consciousness just floating in negativity and then finally about 40 mins go by of constant and I mean constant pulsing and negative colors it dies down by like 3% but just that tiny little bit helped me to where I could atleast stumble to the room I layed down and the last thing I saw was a heart slowly beating and the rate mine was and fell asleep (after laying there for atleast 3 hours). Really thought I died that night was so happy when I woke up and it was over never again man never again

Hey Vivec, im looking to submit a report but don’t want to waste your time with something too longwinded since im sure you get plenty, around what kind of length do you prefer for subscriber submissions?

9:35 I can relate bro! lots of people are so closed off to themselves! and can't atcually open there minds it's really kind of sad for those people

At 5:16 I got traumatized 😂

I just started taking golden teachers that I cultivated. I noticed a bit of dizziness and head pain so I decided to take my blood pressure in the middle of my trip. 150/100. Wtf?! Went back down after trip was over. Is this normal?

yeah bro. i had psychosis once bc i was being a dumbass n just didn’t gaf. but i drank 1/5 of makers mark and 3 tall boy bud weisers and shot of fireball😊 definitely most traumatic experience of my life lmao

It's all well and good to write here that bad trips are the good ones and I get it, but some people, myself included have trips that are so fucked that they take years to recover from, if at all. I am lucky that I had the courage and mental strength to come back from the brink of permanent insanity and I just felt it important to add this perspective to the seemingly overly positive and "it's not all that serious" sounding comments. I'm not trying to come off as negative but someone might need to hear that some people never make it back, so be fuckin careful!!!

A bad trip is not a bad trip its just a negativ experience and... Christian Rätsch did say that taking another trip a week after a "bad trip" will give you a whole new uhhhhm my english suck tbh i dont know the words

Ok so I have a question, I’ve tripped on shrooms 3 times and acid twice except for one of my acid trips they’ve been pretty low doses I feel like to go deeper I need some more understanding, so when you talk about ego death, how does your ego coincide with your consciousness. I guess I don’t get that part of it. Like is your ego you consciousness? I know that your consciousness won’t die but when I’ve tripped it feels like my consciousness fights with the trip even when I feel like I let go. Even when I’m ok with it, I somehow get scared when it starts to get intense. So maybe I don’t know how to let go? I guess I don’t know why I’m scared of letting go.

Use Scorn gameplay for the darker trip reports

After all my years of psychedelic use never had a bad trip. Other then the one time I ate way to many thc jolly ranchers mixed with to much whisky. But other then that Its something I wouldn't wish upon myself or any one else. I think I was built to handle psychedelics quite well.

ne-how we doin 😂

These videos have helped me. I did the Jesus trip, I stayed awake 42 days and was thrown into the lake of fire at the end. Ego death you trippers call it. It was the worst trip ever, everything trippers talk about except for the visuals happened to me during the 42 days. When I was thrown into the lake of fire, I saw it, I felt it, I was there and I Knew it. Worst part about fasting sleep is when the delusions start, you cannot wake up from them, because you are awake. You will see the simulation all around you and it speaks to you. Anyway, you want to take a trip beyond trips, stop sleeping for 40 days and nights. I must warn you, this will trigger your Great Tribulation. The 40 days and nights was only the start. 1,104 days of insanity! Worth it?!, absolutely! ❤ you all in spirit.

3 years ago something happened to me when i quit meth, i would smoke weed and basically would get strapped to a rocket and shot into space ( horrible panic attacks) 3 years later im finally getting back to life. Finally im able to walk into a store without having a panic attack and ditching my cart 😂

Im sorry but I'll disagree with the notion that "every bad trip is a good trip". There are some trips that you learn nothing from and are just pure terror

20 years it took me so don't talk about it lightly - if you understood you wouldn't speak that way - so if you don't understand, why even comment - Grof doesn't take it lightly
