Bad Trip, when tripping becomes a nightmare
Never underestimate psychedelics; do so under supervision!
Imagine this: you’ve just planned your first psychedelic trip. You are enthusiastic and curious about the experience ahead. But what if this psychedelic journey turns into a true nightmare?
Welcome to the world of the “bad trip.”
What is a bad trip?
A bad trip refers to a negative and intensely frightening experience while tripping. It is usually caused by incompetent use of hallucinogenic drugs. The most common are LSD, magic mushrooms, ketamine, MDMA, truffles or DMT(Ayahuasca).
During a bad trip, people may experience feelings of extreme anxiety or paranoia for long periods of time. Loss of control and intense visual hallucinations make this even more frightening.
A bad trip can occur due to several factors. Inexpert use but also the set and setting can cause it.
The set is your mental and physical state. The setting is peaceful environment you are in. Preparing well for the trip is important.
In some people, a bad trip is increased by incompetent guidance. Lack of guidance can make the anxiety worse. Never trip alone!

Prevention is better than cure
Of course, it is always better to avoid a bad trip. Here are some strategies you can use to minimize the chance of a negative experience:
- Don’t do this alone: Book your first trip with a professional guide. Then you are in safe hands.
- Dosage: Always start with a small dose if it is your first time or if you are sensitive to psychedelics. Build up slowly as you become more experienced.
- Set and setting: Make sure you have a positive mindset before you start tripping. Choose a comfortable and safe environment, preferably with people you trust and who have experience with psychedelics.
- Preparation: Take the time to prepare properly before you start tripping. Do research on the effects of the substance used, read trip reports and make sure you feel good mentally and physically.
