Ready to try psychedelics? Here are some steps you can take before and during your trip to stay safe.
Before Your Trip
Choose a Safe Place
You’ll want to have your first psychedelic experience in a place that feels very safe to you. Often, it’s your own home.
Some people travel to Canada to buy legal shrooms and enjoy them in a hotel room or Airbnb. If you’re doing drugs in an unfamiliar place, make sure you put the do not disturb sign on the door and make the surroundings as comfortable as possible.
The room where you’ll be tripping should be clean and uncluttered. Your coordination might be impaired, and you don’t want to trip on something and fall.
Some things you might want to have on hand during your trip include:
- Blankets
- Pillows
- Journal and pen
- Art supplies
- Full water bottle
- Snacks that are easy on the stomach
- Calming music
Overall, remember that your trip should be a calming and enlightening experience. The area where you’ll be having it should reflect that.
Have a Trip Sitter
If this is your first time taking magic mushrooms or other psychedelics, you should ask a sober friend to watch you and take care of you while you enjoy your trip.
Yourour trip sitter needs to be someone who you trust and feel comfortable around. This is true for any other people who will be tripping with you as well. You want to create as peaceful an environment as possible.
Your chaperone can tell you what’s real and not real in your environment and reassure you if you have a bad trip. They will also ensure that you don’t try to leave or hurt yourself by accident.
Your sober friend shouldn’t interfere with your experience too much so that you can enjoy the ride fully. They can just be present in case you need help.
Eat Light Before Your Trip
Psilocybin shrooms can make you nauseous, which is no fun while you’re tripping. One of the best ways to avoid this is by eating very light before your experience.
It’s recommended that you fast or eat light meals during the 24 hours before your trip. A magic mushroom experience is better without a lot of food in your stomach, and it may be stronger that way, too.
If your stomach feels unsettled, you can take a ginger supplement, have some ginger ale, or drink some ginger tea. While ginger might not get rid of the nausea entirely, it might help take the edge off.
Start with a Small Dose
It may be tempting to take a huge dose of magic mushrooms or LSD your first time. However, it’s much better to take a smaller dose until you know how it affects you.
A good dose of shrooms to start out with is 1 gram or less. A microdose of LSD is between 5-20 micrograms, and a low dose is between 25-75 micrograms. Don’t exceed either of these doses at least not too much when you trip for the first time.
During Your Trip
Use One Substance at a Time
Don’t use any other substances while taking psilocybin, LSD, or any other psychedelic. It may seem like cannabis or alcohol will amplify your fun, but in reality, it’s much better to experience the trip by itself.
Don’t Drive
This may seem obvious, but don’t drive or operate any heavy machinery while you’re tripping. Your trip sitter can take your keys to ensure that you don’t try to leave.
It can be nice to experience some of your trip in nature, but only go somewhere that’s easily accessible to your home and isn’t too public.
Don’t Look in a Mirror
Looking in a mirror while you’re tripping on magic mushrooms or LSD isn’t exactly dangerous, but it can lead to a bad trip.
When you look at yourself in a mirror while you’re tripping, you might notice differences to how you usually look, including the texture of your skin. This causes some people to pick at their skin or cause other small abrasions, so try to avoid mirrors during your first trip.
Find a Balanced Emotional State
How you feel during your trip can be highly impacted by your state of mind. You’ll want to be as calm and balanced as possible to avoid any disturbances to your mental state.
Some ways you can keep your head clear while tripping include:
- Journaling
- Meditation
- Calm music
- Drawing, painting, sculpting with clay, or making other art
- Playing with a fidget toy
- Taking a bath
- Lying down in bed
- Spending some (safe and supervised) time in nature
What to Do If You Have a Bad Trip
No matter how well you prepare, it’s possible that you’ll have a bad trip on LSD or mushrooms. A bad trip isn’t a health issue and you’ll recover just fine, but they can be very scary.
Some symptoms of a bad trip include:
- Feeling like time is standing still
- Negative thoughts
- Negative interpretation of your environment
- Extreme paranoia
- Extreme and sudden mood swings
- Negative hallucinations
If you’re having a bad trip, the best thing you can do is acknowledge you’re experiencing one and surrender to it. The more you try to fight it, the worse it could become.
Let your sitter know how you’re feeling and ask them for help. They can remove you from any stressful situation and help you settle down.
Try to relax, get comfortable, and ride out the trip. Surrender to how you’re feeling, and remember that you’ll feel like your normal self soon.
Overall, LSD, magic mushrooms, and other psychedelics are very safe, as long as you plan ahead and avoid any safety risk factors.
