Moments that turned a good trip bad

Has anyone been having a great trip and then It is suddenly ruined by something and it turns dark?
I remember one time I was tripping on an 1/8th of shrooms with a good buddy of mine and we called this one guy from school to deliver some bud. All was well, he delivered the bud and he was on his way. So me and my boy are chilling in his gazebo smoking when the dealer calls us back. Before I start, this dude was always real awkward and constantly trying to chill all the time, bottom line, he was a weird ass dude with terrible social skills. So he calls me and the convo goes something like this:

me: hello
dude: hey whats up?
me: Not to much (While I think like wtf... you know whats up you were just here and sold me weed) Blah blah blah
dude: What you getting in 2?
me: Jus chilling dude, you need something?
dude: You trying to smoke?
me: A....yeah...you know.....you just sold me weed? (While I think wtf, if you wanted to smoke why didn't you say something?)
dude: Alright cool I'll be over in ten minutes

So naturally (almost like he was waiting right up the street) He has already returned in like ten seconds and we get to smoking. So the whole time he's trying to break the ice and say something. I was FUCKING DYING. Every time he tried to make small talk my friend and I would laugh in his face uncontrollably. It was pretty mean in retrospect, dude was just trying to be nice and obviously didn't have anyone to hang out with. So after several failed attempts at striking up a convo he is like: "Yeah..this one time I took these shrooms and they were great at first......then they just started to get to strong and I started freaking out."( Basically begins to tell us about his bad trip while we're tripping) Well, needless to say his story started to make me question my trips intensity and he destroyed every good vibe in the air in a matter of three sentences. From that point on shit got weird. We told him to leave and spent the remainder of the trip recovering from his story.

Also this was around midnight and shortly after he left, my buddy's neighbor decides to deliver a magazine to us that accidentally got delivered to her house. My boy and I are sitting in his gazebo in almost pitch black, smoking weed and drinking (tripped the fuck out) and this Bitch fucking comes outta nowhere to deliver a mother fucking magazine. I was beyond paranoid. She didn't say anything about us smoking and shit but my buddy swears he had never even met her before. Like really? That shit couldn't wait till another time? It was the worse trip ever, I spent the rest of the trip curled in the fetal position convinced I was going to die.

Anyone else got a funny or crazy story about tripping?
 
Idk if you did, but can you switch it. I'm trying to hear some good stories
 
My old room mate ( who is naturally flamboyant ) decided eat some L with his ex girlfriend and hang out one night. Apparently the entire night started off magical, sharing visuals and feeling off the wall amazing.

After watching a movie or two they decided to wander around the apartment and check out all the trippy/pretty posters and tapestries we had in our place.

While they were checking out a movie poster for Watchmen, he had commented on Dr Manhattan and how 'buff' he was. Instantly he said that the room got darker, heavier and there was a sick nasty feeling just floating in the area. The vibes went instantly dead, and he knew right away it was because she thought he might have been gay.

He spent the rest of the night trying to convince her otherwise and to sort of kick the trip in a much more positive direction.

I almost peed laughing when he told me the next day.
 
Never had a bad trip, beaten every negative vibe with a positive one. Simple math!
 
Being around morons with weapons while tripping is something I stray from these days.

Had a few trips where I had to dip from others to save my sanity, typical shit though for the most part.
 
You have no idea how this dude told us his story. I consider myself seasoned (relatively low dose as well), but this dude....something about his timing/awkwardness. What kills me Is he knew we were tripping, probably not the best thing to discuss, you know?
 
once my brother got spiraled into a negative trip because some TV show they were watching mentioned "he died laughing"... he became convinced that this positive emotional trip must be his last moments because it felt so good. needless to say, the thought that you have killed yourself with laughter can turn dark pretty fast :)
 
I've never had a "bad" trip but I had some difficult times on psychedelics but they were just temporary.

I remember the first time I took LSD as a teenager I took the acid at school everyone knew it and in my science class this kid would do things like grab my arm and pretend to pull a piece of my body off and eat it. I wasn't tripping very hard at all at this point and I'd taken the acid the 2nd or 3rd to last class of the day. I also remember some douche nozzle in my math class telling me how I'd actually taken Ketamine and not acid. I remember thinking dream on even if there was some K in the gel/windowpane it'd be such a low dose it wouldn't do anything. All of this did nothing except annoy me.

Later after school when I was tripping very hard and I'd smoked some herb I went to visit a neighbor of mine so I could listen to a CD he had (this was long before ipods or electronic file formats of music) and I took my dog over and my dog scared his kid and knocked over his screen door and I was tripping very hard and he said something but at that time I totally forgot how to speak/hear/comprehend language and I was seeing all sorts of trails and patterns in the sky.

This guy was an alcoholic and mad at my dog but I just went home and put the dog inside and took a walk around the block and saw a tree turn into a giant crystal obelisk and then melt and become a tree again. I came back to the neighbor's house and he saw me and sort of figured out I was tripping since I was staring at his siding that was breathing fast and swirling about, he'd used lots of drugs before and he just said how I should pretend to be "sick" and go to bed early and that's what I did. I also remember looking at the carpet in my parents' bedroom after taking a bath that night-I didn't want to stand and take a shower-and it became a whirlpool that was melting/swirling about and my mom asked me what I was staring at. I knew she suspected I was on drugs but I didn't admit anything and I just went to bed and tripped very hard in my room.

The first time I ate shrooms I remember they instantly kicked in and I was tripping and at the time I thought I was dreaming that my friend and I had just eaten mushrooms, and then I just went with it and realized I was instantly tripping and had a good time.

Another time on 1.5g of shrooms after smoking a bowl of herb and inhaling some nitrous I completely forgot I was on drugs while I was eating cereal in my kitchen. I was no longer seeing visuals at all but I was just confused and I just went with it.

I was once a trip sitter for a friend and his roommates who ate lots of mushrooms and I was just drinking beer that night and my friend was having a difficult time since he thought that an earthquake had happened and he couldn't find his cat and he kept pouring water on himself and he saw a black hole and I eventually got him to calm down, gave him a towel, and turned off electronics since there was water on the floor.

NE 1 ever laugh so laugh so much you feel like your going to die. I remember laughing for hours on 2ce and there were moments where if I didn't take a breath I would've passed out. God, tripping is just such an insane topic to discuss and explain. The feeling can truly not be described, you just gotta try it for yourself.
 
I was tripping shrooms one time and I got a phone call from an old friend that I hadn't heard from in years:

me: Hey what's up?

her: My mom just died, now I'm an orphan.

(Her dad had died just a few months earlier)

I don't remember what I said, if anything, but she started screaming and crying and eventually hung up. I never told her I was tripping, and I hesitate to bring it up. Honestly, the trip wasn't the worst I've had, but that was definitely a dark moment that made the rest of the trip considerably darker.
 
I clearly remember that on one of my first trips ever, on mushrooms, I got pretty discombobulated because some dorm mates of mine had changed my computer desktop to horse porn.
 
i just lol'ed so hard at "discombobulated" and "horse porn"

The first time i did acid I did it with this kid i'd just met (he gave me some for free) and I remember i was tripping way too hard/it was too intense and this kid who i barely know only had 1 eye (the other one was glass) and it was tripping me out so hard because he ate like 8-10 tabs and was trippin balls and I just started getting the worst vibes after a while and kept thinking this dude was absolutely insane and I was going insane too haha
 
once it turned sour for me by getting a text message late in the night, while tripping. stupid me read it. it said i needed to be at work early next day. no way was i going to be sober by then, or close to functional. and lying wasnt the first thing that popped to mind, but rather "man, i shouldnt have done this"... and that took some effort to calm myself
lesson learned. drug goes in, phone goes off

Wow. Id be speechless myself but I don't think it would make the whole experience dark. Death can either be a very good + rewarding topic of discussion or very dark +scary realization while tripping.
 
friend spilled bong water on my brand new laptop that my parents bought me and it made a terrible screeching noise

since i was tripping balls and no one else was i couldnt understand what happened and if the computer was alright

for half a second i saw the room as being completely full of people all laughing at me because they knew it had been broken for years and i couldnt figure it out

i left the room and came back and everything was ok but for a couple minutes i was on my way to a bad trip
 
My parents barging into my room and asking me why I'm up so late at night. Hah.

Actually one time I'd been smoking changa for like an hour, and by that point I had gotten high as the moon, and I was making all sorts of crazy noises, breathing heavily and speaking in tongues, and going through all sorts of wild dancing motions on my bed, and suddenly I hear the door open... luckily it was pitch black in my room, and for all my Dad knew, I was asleep having some terrible nightmare. I do wonder if he ever smelled the smoke, though. Needless to say, the trip went downhill from there.
