Panic Attacks/Anxiety after Shroom Trip and Low Dose of 2C-P, Please Help!

Hello evereyone, I hope this is the right section to ask this, I really need help!

So basically I had a very intense shroom trip 7 days ago which ended in a horrortrip because I took too much (about 4gs) and I was alone at home.
After it was over I felt very reliefed and happy/just normal for the whole week while still processing the trip.

Yesterday I got my hands on whats supposed to be 2C-P, a powerful Psychedelic Phenethylamine, which I ordered. To test if it was real I took a very small dosis of not more than 1-2mg orally.
I didn't really feel anything except for maybe slight placebo effects until about +5-6 hours after I took it.
When I tried to go to bed I had some strange thoughts that for some reason really freaked me out because I thought I should be sober and i got a panic attack just like the one I had one shrooms 7 days ago.

The panic consisted of my heart beating faster and a feeling in my stomache, body and neck that I would describe as "burning".
After that I wasn't able to sleep the whole night because of anxiety and fear of new panic attacks. I should also mention that I had sleep deprivation because I didn't get enough sleep the last 2-3 days (only about 5-6 hours a day)
Then I went to school the whole day and this anxiety/fears got less and I was very awake and almost euphoric.

Then when I got home and tried to sleep (about +24h after i had taken the 2c-p) the anxiety slightly came back and I had 2 more panic attacks. My heart is now beating faster than normal all the time and I can't get any sleep.

Has anyone ever experienced something similar and is this likely to go away soon? What would be the best way to get some sleep? I don't really want to take any meds..

Please please help me, I am very scared that this won't go away! Thanks in advance!
 
sounds like you didnt get much sleep on top of having a really strong mushroom trip. Try and abstain from all psychs for a bit and get some healthy sleep.
 
thanks dude yes I'll try
the problem is that I have this weird feeling (not even sure if it is anxiety but I guess it comes close). my pulse and blood pressure are slightly elvated and I have this hot feeling in my stomache that won't let me sleep
I need something to calm me down, already tried tea and a hot shower which helped a bit but not much
 
Thanks man, this helps alot!

I should probably also mention that I consumed about 150mg 4-Fluoramphetamin (4FA) the day after the trip and felt very tired and exhausted for 2 days after that (last Sunday + Monday)
and I just dipped very lightly into the 2CP bag when I tested it, I'm pretty sure it wasn't much more than 1mg that I consumed, I might have a very low tolerance
I really hope this just caused by my lack of sleep, the 2CP side effects and my brain being confused like you said,
at one point I was very afraid and panicing that I might develop an Anxiety Disorder because I've heard/read from several people getting this after shroom trips and my symptoms are really similar
 
Well, you eyed out a phen that is known to be super potent a week after you had a horrorshow trip n shrooms after which you took an RC floranated amp...
Like everyone else said. Lay off the substances for a while...You will return to baseline eventually.

In the future though, I highly suggest using a scale for 2c-p, not doing so is asking for it.
 
To test if it was real I took a very small dosis of not more than 1-2mg orally.
I didn't really feel anything except for maybe slight placebo effects until about +5-6 hours after I took it.
When I tried to go to bed I had some strange thoughts that for some reason really freaked me out because I thought I should be sober and i got a panic attack just like the one I had one shrooms 7 days ago.

Take this into consideration: 1-2 mg orally +- 100% eye-balling error margin might produce already threshold to mild effects and it certainly is a long laster. So you perhaps had these strange thoughts due to a very subtle 2C-P "trip" projected some anxiety stemming from bad trip hypersensitivity onto that.

I agree with the other posters, avoid any drugs, try to relax and get your mind some time to process and acclimatize to these imprints. You'll be fine :)
 
^ With 1-2mg the line for error when eyeballing is much larger. You can be 3,4, maybe even 5mg above what you think you took due to different densities of the powder and it looking different in different shapes, positions, or from the powder not being flat etc. Now taking 1-2mg 2C-P and taking 5-7mg 2C-P is a HUGE difference, so a scale is a must.

Failing that, use Liquid Measurement, though you need to know the total initial amount you have.

As for your panic attacks, it sounds like you have some form of anxiety, either longer lasting or just something brought up by the trip. Just relax, avoid drugs as a whole for a while and take a break. Try to remove stressful factors from your life, and see how you feel in a few weeks. :)
 
thanks alot guys, I feel absolutely fine now, the anxiety faded away after 2-3 days (exponentially).. I think I had some sort of a flashback, does that sound plausible?

and sorry I probably worded that wrong, I have no idea how much 2CP I took, I'm guessing it was really really little, just above the threshold because I only wiped my finger over the inside of the plastic bag it came in like 2 times and put it on my tongue

I was laying in complete darkness and began thinking in strange ways I usually don't do, and also saw some really really subtle CEVs and then I just questioned myself why that'd happen..and suddenly that caused the initial panic attack (I had completely forgotten about the 2CP i took earlier/couldn't believe that such a small dose could do that.. but apparently it did cause it kept me wide awake the whole night and day after) I also never had any sort of anxiety before in my whole life

@jesusgreen thanks for that liquid measurement thread, I was looking for that

I haven't taken anything for 8-9 days now and I'm wondering If it'd be safe to smoke some weed or take a small dose of 4FA? or should I pause even longer just to be safe?

I'm also never ever gonna take psyhcadelics on my own again because when I took shrooms (1-2g) with my friends I had alot more fun and no bad thougts at all
my house is also obsolete as a setting now because I'm pretty sure if I'd trip there again I'd be reminded of my horrortrip I had there, or what do you think?

To be honest I don't understand where you're coming from. I've been doing drugs for a while and these weren't my first experiments with RC's and I wouldn't describe them as mystery substances..

I am 100% aware of the risks that these substances involve, even more after having this intense shroom trip I have alot more respect for psychadelics which is a very good thing imo.
The thing is I'm just trying to be alot more careful now because I haven't experienced after effects like these (panic etc) before.. I was initially debating whether to make this thread or not but since this forum is very active and some supposedly smart/experienced people post here I thought why not?
Wouldn't you also ask for help if you experienced something like this? What gave you the opportunity to see this happen with "thousands" of people?
 
I changed my mind.. you are right.
I'm not gonna take any psychadelics for a longer time, maybe they aren't as good for me as I thought.

I felt totally normal the whole week but the anxiety came back on saturday night and has more or less lasted until now (Tuesday). Falling asleep is difficult because of the burning feeling in my stomache that is there even if I don't experience any kind of fear/panic, but it gets worse with bad thoughts..
I wan't to convince myself that this won't be permanent and try to find the cause of it. Could it be something I'm not aware of/that is buried in my subconsiousness? I always try to think that this still the after effect and that it'll go away eventually..actually it was completely gone today until I got home from school and was on my own again without any distractions..

how long could this last and what could I do help myself? Should I just distract myself and wait? Or should I try to meditate or something to find the cause of this (if there is one?). Or is it really still the after effects? (It's been 12 days since I had the 2CP)
 
Your next trap to fall into...benzos

I'm sorry, I didn't really mean that, benzos are very helpfull used short term but beyond that become a nightmare I wouldn't wish on anyone.

Diet and engaging in walking, running, young people yoga-classes (there are old people yoga classes - those won't help you much) Mainly improving diet and going on a steady excercize routine can really help a lot...I know, I've been there.

At any rate, best of luck..a break from drugs is likely avery good idea for at least 2-3 months.

Take care.
 
Thanks dude I'll try..
How long did it take you to recover? I felt quite normal today but then had the bad idea to read stuff about depersonalization etc (because ive heard that before) and got pretty bad anxiety/panic :/
I really hope I'm going to feel better soon..if not I'll probably visit the doctor.
