Hey I am 16 years old and my friend and I tripped on shrooms for the first time yesterday. I must say it was one of the best experiences for about 2 hours and then something terrible went wrong. Around 2 in the morning (I dont remember my friend told me) I became talking crazy and acted very violent. I picked up a bar stool threw it at my stereo system in my basement, shattered the right speaker and then picked up a lamp and smashed it on the wall. My parents heard this and ran downstairs immediatley. They sat and tried to talk to me for about an hour but I didn't make any sense and my mom said I told her I didn't even remember her. I finally came to around 5 a.m. my parents helped me upstairs so I could take a piss and then they sat me down and I got in some serious trouble. My friend had explained to them that we were trippin and my parents asked me all the drugs I've done so I had to confess e, pot, shrooms, and acid. My mother cried all night and even today she is still upset. I just hope that one day I can gain their trust again and figure out why the shrooms made me react that way and not my friend. I had only taken an eighth, but that was enough for me to bug out.

Did you hear what I just said ???

according to what i've read an 8th of mexican shrooms is a heavy dose. if it was an 8th of 'liberty caps' (what we get in the uk) then fuck me, i reckon the chances are you'd be on a suicide mission (unlesss your VERY experienced).

you had a pyschotic episode. no really. that's what most people refer to as a bad trip or freaking/bugging out. something initially goes wrong with your trip, like maybe the effects of coming up on the drug or the emotional/psychological/interpersonal aspects of the situation you find yourself tripping in are suddenely unhappy or confusing or uncertain. the natural response to this is to be a little afraid or anxious. if you don't check yourself or deal with it or have someone around who can help you relax, then your fears and anxiety can build and eventually overwhelm you, leaving you in a "freak out" state which is essentialy pyschotic schizophrenia. you can begin to "loop" or become violent, think you are in physical danger or danger of dying (and put yourself or others in actual danger), and not know who, how, where, or when you are. this state is caused by anxiety overwhelming your conscious (or self-conscious) faculties, your super-ego, your sense of self, of right and wrong, action and consequence. you really can't help yourself and will not return to normal until you either stop tripping, are given anti-psychotics (or, preferably valium/zanax), end up in a hospital, or die. everyone who is going to trip or sit for someone should probably read erowid's psychadelic crisis faq first. (www.erowid.org/psychoactives/faqs/psychedelic_crisis_faq.shtml) the most important thing to realize if someone is manifesting symptoms of severe psychosis (disorientation, doesnt know what's going on, can't respond or comminicate coherently, irrational, violent, childlike, or fearful behavior) then they are in a state of massive anxiety and pyschic stress, and that the ANYTHING you can do to help them relax will make it better. if they become uncontrolable or dangerous, then get help immediately. parents are good but usually only for calling paramedics. this is not a happy experience for anyone, but many people have been there and made it back more or less ok. fairly interesting shite for philosphy of consciousness majors as well. be careful. tripping isn't good, it isn't bad, it's just the most fucked up thing you can possibly do to yourself, in my opinion.
