If one is on a bad psychedelic trip, what other drugs can help relieve anxiety/fear?

Hello everyone

I taken a far share of psychedelics (2c-b,psilocybin,lsd,ketamine) and i havent had a really bad experience, and i have had a bad trip i needed to have to learn from (which is ok to get through without any other drugs), but i was wondering for future reference and when i trip with people who have never tripped before: If one found themselves on a bad trip on a psychedelic such as lsd or magic mushrooms, what other substances would help ease the bad trip or take a bit of anxiety away. obviously diazepam would be the first choice, but say if thats not available, what about alcohol? or would that get much more crazy. Maybe a natural substance like camomile tea but 100x stronger? or sleeping pills/pain killers u can buy without prescription?

Thanks and happy psychedelic endeavours!
 
I don't know if it's wise to mix them with Psychedelics, but any Benzo would help with your anxiety.
 
I remember having a bad trip a couple years ago on 4 hits of LSD, and my friend made me take a Xanax. I don't know how many mg it was, but it definitely calmed me down. Also kind of ruined the rest of my trip, but thank god the Xanax stopped it.
 
From a little research it seems there's no interactions, you should be fine taking a benzo to calm yourself down.
 
From my own experience enough clonazepam, diazepam or whatever will stop any fucking trip. Atleast with a tryptamine psychedelic anyway. I use it for when the acid or shrooms has worn off and i need sleep bad.
 
^^^^ Alcohol will dumb it down but ive found it can make the trip worse. Alcohol isint exactly the best thing for calming down a trip in my opinion. Ive seen some awful trips with people mixing the 2 and ive felt like shit myself on the combo.
 
^^^ You will still trip on opiates or atleast i do. One of my best psychedelic experiences was tripping on shrooms and shooting up 8mg's of dilaudid at the peak :D
 
thanks for all your replies. where would one purchase some benzos? or can anyone recommend a good site to buy valium from?
 
Benzo's will take it right out of you.

Nope, sorry man we don't know, and for future reference, don't ask where to get anything.
 
I'd avoid haldol. In medicine benzod are the drugs of choice. xanax 1 mg if your trippin alittle. 2 mg if your trippin balls. 6-8 mg if you use the upper dosage ranges therapeutically.

I read an article in an old hightimes called drugstore cowboy, a short story written by James Fogle before the movie came along. Anyway, one of their stories was that they were tripping hard and needed something desperately to bring them down. They proceded to break into a pharmacy in the 70s and get reds (seconal) to come down with. But benzos are probably much superior even though enough barbs can put you to sleep during a bad trip (or permanetly if your not careful).
 
Wouldn't count on alcohol having much effect, at least in the way of relieving anxiety or fear. I've never had large amounts of alcohol while tripping and small amounts have such subtle effects they are completely steamrolled by the psychedelia. I'd imagine that large amounts is a bad idea; I don't think the feeling of being drunk would be very enjoyable on psychedelics and you'd probably just be decidedly more "messed up". Benzos are the drug of choice here; if I had a choice I'd take Xanax because it's potent and has a very quick onset. You don't want to be waiting very long for that thing to start taking effect (although the very knowledge that you will soon be feeling an anxiolytic drug may in itself relax you).
 
any benzo would work but it will probably kill the trip you should try valerian instead it can be bought at cvs like $5 for like 100 capsules it works on the same receptor as benzos and is actually used to ease benzo withdrawls
