Taking 5-10mg of Valium before taking a decent LSD dose...

I have been tripping for around 11 years now and have had LSD more times than I remember along with most other Psychedelics, mainly mushrooms, DMT and 2C's(Dissociatives are another story) but mainly LSD up to im guessing around 500ug.

As ive gotten older ive become a lot more anxious about life and have also endured a heroin addiction for around 9 years. I will be on Suboxone for the duration of this trip, just to make things clear.

Anyway on to the point. I plan on taking 3x 150ug tabs at a Psytrance festival in about a month. One of the last times I used it at a Psy gathering, I found myself having to eat 2mg of Etizolam as I was coming up because I got really anxious. Though I made a clear mistake(I had too much nitrous and felt an invasive entity jump into me...... Strangely months later on 2C-B + Nitrous I saw whatever it was leave my body!) My friend lit some Sage which helped and ill now be using beforehand. But my main question is, will having a small amount of Valium beforehand(I find valium to be the most relaxing and the least sloppy and "fuck you up" out of all the benzos) affect my trip that much? I dont remember this Etizolam affecting it too much but to me its too much like Xanax to be useful. I obviously wont be having any Nitrous until im at least on the tail end of the plateau either. I also plan to take Ketamine through the night and a fair few mushrooms just before the sun comes up, maybe some DMT if it feels right. This festival is the highlight of my year though, I dont do this often at all!

Would love to hear your opinions guys and girls :) and if you care to share, What is your highest dose of LSD/other psychedelic that youve taken in a festival setting and what happened?
 
I always start off with a benzo or two at such events. Partly because I find them useful for socialising, loosening up, immersing myself in the atmosphere, partly because taking benzos is just something that I do. It also seems to help ease the discomfort of psychedelics kicking in, although I once took my temazepam dose too closely to the mushrooms and spent half the festival feeling like I just wanted to lounge back and close my eyes rather than stand by the stage dancing, so I didn't really get to enjoy the effect of either. Very dissociative experience.

If you're going to take a benzo and LSD combo, maybe space the two out a bit so it doesen't all come on at once. Also, 150 micrograms for me, at a trippy outdoor event, would probably make 3 mild doses- it's amazing how much the atmosphere can factor in and strengthen the experience.

Have fun!
