Actually Ativan is the normal goto at the hospital with any freak out......because of its short duration......now if risk of seizure is warrented they will use Valium

Every responsible drug user should keep Xanax on hand for when things go wrong.

Yeah... try doing a 'mental backflip' when you're in the midst of a full-blown panic attack, feeling like you're about to die.I think suggesting psychedelic users add benzos into the mix is not hard reduction. "Bad trips" come from within the mind and that's where they stop. A mental backflip is one remedy for a bad trip, along with meditation, chants, singing, playing music or whatever works for you.
You need to conquer it instead of pushing it down with benzos. That will only make it worse in the long run. Once you learn how to stop a bad trip with your mind alone, you will not get them any more. You will never learn if you knock yourself out with benzos every time you feel uncomfortable while tripping. Psychedelics can be difficult and there is no easy mode.
It sounds like the universe is hellbent on teasing youTried to spit it out and lay down. Felt this all encompassing love and energy comming, like I was straight going out into +4 territory, only to see these entity like things laughing, flipping me off, and waving as they faded away...
Taking a benzo when you're having a bad reaction from a drug (psychedelic or not) isn't jumping down from a rollercoaster. It's simply getting off, saying "no thanks" to whatever horrible idea the drug had in mind for me.Jumping down from a rollercoaster is a much worse idea than sitting through the ride
I'm really glad I took the valium because I'd already identified the cause of my bad trip and I didn't see any benefit to sitting there dwelling on it and feeling like shit for the rest of the night.
Besides, psychological stress can have negative effects on physical and negative health. From a harm-reduction point of view, you're much better off using a benzo to end a trainwreck trip than trying to tough it out.
