A bad trip refers to an uncomfortable or distressing experience while under the influence of magic mushrooms. It can be characterized by feelings of anxiety, paranoia, confusion, or an overwhelming sense of negativity. But fear not! While bad trips can happen, they are often influenced by factors such as set (mindset), setting (environment), and dosage. Creating a safe and supportive environment, having a positive mindset, and starting with a lower dosage can greatly reduce the likelihood of a bad trip. Remember, mushrooms can be capricious, so treat them with respect and proceed with care.
