Xanax + LSD: Safety cushion didnt work and made things worst

People are way too quick to eat benzos or antipsychotics in the event of a bad trip, where the first response should be to change the setting by either changing music, lighting, or even going for a walk. If this fails, then administer a modest dose of benzos. If that fails, and the user is in danger or endangering others, then administer an antipsychotic. I've found Olanzapine to be effective while minimizing the dysphoric lethargy most antipsychotics tend to elicit.
 
Thanks for sharing this experience - it seems like it could help a lot of people in the future. Sorry there were so many negative posts.
 
You'll find that 1 minute they are okay, the next they panic

"when someone is in a bad trip and the benzo is kicking in their thoughts become a bit schizo. You'll find that 1 minute they are okay, the next they panic, etc, etc, slowly the time that they are okay becomes longer until eventually they stop panicking."
WOOOW...that happened to me 2 times...it was exactly like you said.
the first time it was in my birthday party, i was with 2 friends and my girlfriend, and i was the only one tripping on acid, my girl and the other 2 friends toke a bit of mdma, and one of my friend was smoking heroin, by that time i was starting to get addicted to heroin, and in that night i didnt use it, only my friend...i didnt want to use it because my girlfriend was present, and she knew, but i cant do it in front of her, she feels so sad...anyway i eat one and half tab, had a mild trip, the patterns in walls and in the ground, my house is made in hood, so i see the hood melting, tracers everywhere i looked, trees breathing and moving, dancing, etc...it was night...and i dont know how BAM like this i was feeling bad, like i was dying, very paranoid thoughts i freaked out, they asked me what was happening and i say to them i was in a bad trip...that i had scared by the trees...lol
And i thought.."its now, in my birthday party...i gonna loose my mind" so i take maybe 1.5 of xanax and that what happened...1 min ok, then panic...this last for about half an hour i think, and the second its the same thing, i was in a very good trip maybe with 2 tabs it was very nice, good visuals, and then i dont know why the ideia of smoking a weed joint arises in my head, great mistake, i smoked it alone, my friend was sleeping in my house drunk, and i was walking alone and smoking the joint..listening to good music...and then bam again, same history, in that time i dont know how much i took but it was the worst thing i ever done, i didnt wake up my friend to help me, and i started to take xanax like a fool, thinking"oh this never ends, maybe if i take one more it will end.."i dont know how much i take, but, i remember trying to walk, to my bed, but i was so fucked up, i cannot stand up, i was crawling up to the stairs to my room, then i went to bed and see a giant blue octapus coming at me and i "run" away from my bedroom, and i went to the room where my drunk friend was sleeping...obviously with time i calmed down and went to sleep....
in the other day, i start thinking...that bad trip happened because of heroin...im not ok. these trips showed me the darkest things inside my, everything emerged...and i just couldnt manage that.
Know im fighting with heroin addiction...clean for a month;) sorry for the trip report...sorry for any bad english (im portuguese) peace to you;)
 
Hmm sounds like a case of too much LSD for a first time (Those Dalai's are some serious business). That's a pretty big dose of LSD for a beginner, and some people are rather sensitive to LSD, while not as much to Mushrooms. I need a fair amount of mushrooms to get going, not so much LSD.
That. And too much Xanax.

I once gave a friend a 5mg Valium to calm him down from a rather daunting LSD trip, although he proceeded to eat a bunch of other drugs later which isn't exactly advisable, but it seemed to work before he decided to do that.
 
I've used etizolam or clonezapam to calm a trip down to reasonably good effect in the past, but I would say diazepam is probably the most preferable if you just need to tone things down a bit. If you actually need to stop a trip the only things I've found that work are mirtazapine & trazodone. They are 5-HT2a (& other various 5-HT site) antagonists. However they also knock me & most other folks, the hell out for a considerable amount of time. Honestly I guess I can't say for sure that it stopped the trip, since I was asleep in relatively short order. But effective nonetheless. These days I usually just ride it out if it gets bad. That gets easier with experience. Also I don't go taking huge doses any more ;)
