anxiety on lsd come up.

muscle tension and anxiety on lsd come up.

so i have enjoyed lsd for many years and i love taking it in all sorts of settings, sometimes the anxiety of the come up makes this very hard as i tend to want to be alone, shplopped and twisting on the bed for 2 hours.

i actually do not enjoy the first few hours on lsd at at all, from the molment it hits the back of my throat a shiver goes down my spine and i can already feel the quirkiness onsetting. i really enjoy the trip after about 2.5/3-4 hours in once i feel the anxiety leave and the silliness comes in.

i have tried preloading my body with magnesium and potassium as those usually help my leg tension IRL but it doesnt seem to have much effect.

is there anything else i can take for the anxiety and muscle tension that isnt going to effect the quality of the experience?

Idk a small benzo dose can be very helpful. Shouldn't take away from the trip unless you take a recreational benzo dose.
I've never had this issue. The comeup and peak are my favourite part hands down

It's all psychological. Try to keep busy on the comeup, or do some meditation.

My theory on taking benzos in order to be able to take a psychedelic is, why take the psychedelic at all? They are anxiogenic in nature, they push your senses over the edge and the transition from 'normal' to 'intensified' can often be a rocky one. Try doing something like taking the tabs and then going for a bike ride for an hour, that'll probably solve the problem right there. It's all about what you're focused on, assuming it's LSD-25, and the comeup phase outlines the rest of the trip so this phase is very important to actually experience.

Crashing is right, but if that fails, then you could try a short-acting benzo? (Wikipedia points me at Ambien or Triazolam, but I'm not big on benzos so you should seek someone else's advice for that) Not sure if there's anything that doesn't meddle with psychedelics, so maybe you're just out of luck.

Out of curiosity though, do you only experience this with LSD? Some psychs make me socially inept (seems like the cause for the come-up?) so could be worth exploring a bit

I always ehrlich reagent test weather its liquid, WoW, or blotter art before taking. And I notice these effects most of the time regardless of what its on or in.
I don't really like pharms, is there any supplements or anything else I could load up on to ease the muscle tension?

And yes i do have some leg tension(rls) in my day-to-day
I alao experience leg tension on mdXX.

I had a nice time off 3/4 of a powerful 1/4in WoW tab last night. Wednesday I'm taking a dhalai lama tab(supposidly 250ug? More.likely 175) and I'm gonna be around people the whole time walking around and stuff.

Ill probably just suck it up like usual and look forward to when everything becomes magical.

I think for it to be effective it would have to be psychoactive in some way, meaning that it will intervene with your experience. You could look at herbs like Kava or something

Keep a xanax in the closet.

In case of emergency break open etc.
