    I couldn't decide whether or not to ask the n00bs or the pros, so if this doesn't belong in this forum, please feel free to move it.

    My best friend and I have been toking for quite some time and decided it was finally time to try psychedelics. I had an extraordinarily beautiful and mind opening experience that has left an impact on my life. Regrettably, my friend had an extraordinarily bad trip and mind closing experience that left a lasting impression on his life.

    What's even worse is that he gets bad vibes whenever tokes now. He used to toke all the time. He can't toke anymore because of the bad vibes he gets. We have no idea how to resolve this. He'd love to start toking again, but he's scared enough of the bad effects to avoid it. A curious exception to this is that he can toke when he's drunk, but alcohol is a terrible habit and I hate to have to see him get trashed just so he can enjoy his favorite pastime. I need not mention that alcohol is very expensive as well.

    Has anyone had a similar experience? Does anyone know of anything to try? Any and all help is appreciated.

    I've only had a psychadelic experience on shrooms a couple of times and both, initially, were the most wonderful sensation one could ever experience... until the vary end just when I was starting to finally come off it.... and it was hell, pure unholy hell.

    The thing about psychs from what I understand is you have to do happy things. Watching anime/cartoons, finger paint, run outside, play video games, whatever... because otherwise you do risk something of a nightmare.

    As some strains of weed is more of a mental high, this could trigger a sort of post traumatic nightmare flashback of sorts. Perhaps trying strains more indica-based could help... or maybe just make certain you're doing good ol fun, happy things while toking...
    Then again if worse comes to worse give up a week or a month (maybe longer) and let time heal old wounds.

    May I ask what type of psychedelics you guys used?
    This happened to one of my friends when he tried shrooms, he ended up having a bad trip. He said it was so terrible that he cant describe, as if the bad trip was personal and out to get him.

    I would tell him to maybe consider trying shrooms or whatever again, and try to go in with a good mindset. Then if he has a good trip it could restore his well being.

    Idk that's just what my friend did and he said ever since his good shroom trip, he is done with them and wants that to be the memory of his experience.

    But trying them again could be a bad idea for him, so you don't have to take this advice.

    Or just tell him it was just a trip and brush it off ?
    Just my .02 from my stoned thinking :smoking:

    I would say just have your friend take a break from any psychedelic drugs for about a month atleast. It might be hard, but necessary for him to get his mindset back. Than take it in easy and just be around good vibes when he tokes again. After that, he should be ok.

    As for the taking shrooms again idea, I think thats a bad gamble. If the poor kid has another horrible trip, he would probably have a breakdown or something.

    Thanks for the feedback everyone. Actually it was acid, not shrooms, I dunno if that makes a difference. It's already been about a month since he last smoked, we just tried today and he still got a bad trip. Can someone enlighten me to the differences of the high on different strains? I've heard someone suggest a Diazepam?(this doesn't sound like a good idea to me but I thought I'd ask.) Again, any suggestions are welcome. Thanks!
