Recently had a very intense experience with drugs (mushrooms), had a bad trip and having lingering anxiety tonight. Is this the right group for this?

I feel very anxious after a carefully planned mushroom trip ended very poorly with a five hour trip which was highly insufferable.

I felt like I was going to pass on and that the afterlife would be all pain and anxiety forever. My girlfriend had to hold me and rock me in a blanket for hours while I cried, vomited and wondered if I was going to need to go to the ER.


I feel scared to go back to work tomorrow and feel like I'll get fired if I show up tomorrow and still have it in my system... But I can't take the day off. So I'm quite worried about that too. And everything.


Anyone have any advise about how to deal with it or similar stories? Really appreciate your time. Sorry if I'm in the wrong thread


(ps, first time taking mushrooms, I was just going to try it out for a bucketlist type of thing. I've flushed my remaining mushrooms and I won't be wanting more.)

@jeff339 In the weeks since you posted this, no one seems to have known how to reply, sadly. I hope things worked out for you, the pain and anxiety went away, and you didn't get fired.

As for whether you posted in the right place, I really don't know. It should have been as good a place as any.
