Smoking bud ever bring back bad trips?

[Who?]

Right before the first of the year I'd tripped on mushrooms for the first time. And I had a really really bad time. I coulnd't handle it for some reason, I didn't have many visuals I just had really heavy deep racing thoughts. I've heard a lot of people get this, but they normally think of good things, I'm the exact opposite.

Well, ever since then I've been smoking mainly Indica type strains. However, recently a few different nugs have come around that had very big Sativa qualities. Whenever I smoke these Sativa strains I have been having horrible racing thoughts again.

Does anyone have an explination to this? Is this that Hallucinigenic Disorder ?(forgot name sorry) If so, how long will it last? Really sucks because before that shroom experience I liked Sativa strains the most.

Or do you think it's just a certain strains genetics and it's just part of that strains high?

Really sucks and I wish it woulnd't happen. Hit me back.

that happens to me, i freaked the fuck out on some pcp once and after that for a little bit when i would smoke it would bring back that feeling of loseing it

You mean HPPD? No, it's not that but I think you might have some issues to deal with.. at least that's what has caused me to have bad time tripping. Also, I believe (and hope) that the effect you have while high will propably wear off over time.

Ive had highs that have brought back memorys of lsd trips. Though Ive never had a bad trip, one difficult experience but not really bad.

As far as I'm concerned, when I smoke low quality commercial horse feces, and the "effect" is crappy (i.e. mild, not lasting long enough, bad comedowns- headaches, etc) I get pissed.

Then my mind starts racing off to destructive thoughts, such as running over that crappy cultivator w/a battle tank or drowning him in a vat of boiling crude oil. But other than that...I'd have to say "no."

More than "bringing bacK" a bad trip etc., I'd say smoking commercial quality crap is what rushes my mind w/ bad thoughts.

i think inner problems cause bad trips

HPPD is related to post-traumatic stress disorder. Being in a similar mindstate it is very possible to bring back bad trips.

I think Erowid might have more information on the subject?

Sweetie, don't worry. The effect will fade in time. I used to flash back on acid trips frequently when I smoked weed. Now it never happens. My flash backs were mostly good, but so were the trips. Sorry about your bad trip. The effects will lessen as time passes. Hang in there- Granny

 

[Ohh.Word]

nope

 

[ogrefugee]

nope... but then again I've only had 1 bad trip... and since then i've learned what not to do while tripping thus i do not fear bad trips...

but i have had mj induce short flashbacks... then again i have been getting flashbacks weekly now and I haven't smoked in months... that may have something to do with the large amounts of fluff i've been injesting every other weekend

life is grand

Mushrooms and cannabis are both psychedelics so if you smoke a strong heady sativa then obviously there is a chance your mind could return to the same place you were at recently in your mushroom trip.

My advice would be to stay away from the strong sativas for a while and the shrooms aswell. Go back to them when your mind is in a better place.

Always remember to treat the mushrooms with respect and they will respect you in return (most times ).

peace

^ yep.

read this book for a read interesting perspective on psychoactive herbs...

It was written by an anthropology student who spent years with a great shaman Don Juan. Don Juan explained in great detail how to perceive and treat different ethnogens. it changed my perception and approach of hallucinagins (sp) greatly, and after reading i feel my trips are much more rewarding and profound

it is a great book, they probably have it at your local library, if not then check out the closest college library because it is a popular series for antropology students.

sativas do that to people. when i first started smoking i used to bug out because of heavy sativas.. but after smoking for a while, it went away. its just something you gotta work through i guess, its all in your head man. your mind is way more powerful than you can ever imagine.

Nope, never had any problems and on a regular basis for years I've done psychedelics and stuff stronger then regular herb.

Thanks for the replies guys. I've only tried shrooms once and it was a bad experience in most ways. Although, if I could go back I would still take them. I learned more about myself in those 4 hours of bad tripping then I ever have in the past.

I really like Sativa bud. It's just since then everytime I smoke it I go back to that bad place. It's like that door was opened with the shroom trip, and I forgot to close it when I was done. And now everytime I smoke a strong Sativa I wonder back through that door.

I hope it passes, the Sativa strains were a big help with my artwork back before the whole shroom thing.

It sounds to me like you are getting panic attacks. I did shrooms years ago and I did to many and I remember wishing it would go away, lol. Drinking helped mellow it out.
I think when you are getting high now you are dwelling on it and causing the anxiety....

Had some bad LSD trips, ended up having massive anxiety for 7 years because of it, and am now on paxil, to reduce the panic attacks. Smoking herb, especially sativas really bring on the panic. I quit toking for 8 months, and no trippin for about 7 years The mind is hard to heal after this. I can only smoke once in a while, Sativas and Dirty chem weed, really brings on the trips. Smoked some schwag out of my vaporizer this morning, and had to lay down for 3 hours, because I felt like I was on LSD. Bad trips can really FUCK YA UP, best thing to do, is lay off of everything, for a long ass time. Giving yourself repeated panic attacks, only lengthens the healing process. Good luck.
