I realized how great of a mantra "row row row your boat" actually is
Propel propel propel your vessel,
Carefully through the liquid solution,
Ecstatically ecstatically
Ecstatically ecstatically,
Life is but an illusion.

It’s an old Masonic poem

@@frankie9457 that's just terrific
for me bad trips are just amplified anxiety and a deep uncomfortably radiating from the core of my being as if there is a predator looming to pounce on me at any moment. I've come to realize these are just more intense externalizations of my issues with GAD, and it helped cement the idea that "bad trips" are mostly just the unconscious elements of ones psyche bubbling to the surface to say hello.
Absolutely. Very well said INDEED!
Could not said it better
whats GAD?

"You're not breathing, dude!"
🤣
Really felt this
This is one of my favorite shorts from him. "Shoot the lock off!" Lmao.
If you can find anything on him talking about his last psilocybin experience, where he had one of his most terrifying trips, that would be awesome✌🙃
@@deadbeats4894 I wrote an article about it years ago www.mckennite.com/articles/badtrip
there's no air, just mind
"Bad trips make bad sex look like no problem, which is an amazing thing to achieve" 😂👌🏽
When Terence spoke about how gentle psilocybin can be to beginners it reminded me of my first time. Had just got my hands on atlantis truffles and took a small to medium dosage and I just went in complete naive and was greeted with warmth and amazement. It felt like 5 hours of pure love and understanding, expanding the view of internal and external, some kind of personal enlightenment that is hard to put into words.
Wow. You articulated a very accurate trip.
Me too!
I took the same, however, sadly spiraled into a really, really nightmare-ish trip. But, as soon as I woke up the next morning... BAM!
"I GET IT NOW. OMG. I GET IT NOW".
Couldn't stop repeating those words in my head for the next week or so. Such an insightful thing, psilocybin. And who would've thought?!
@@KarusMBII yeah psychedelics are the key. Everyday I’m thank ful I took my first tan. Cuz it woke me up and I’ve never been the same and kept taking psychedelics and integrating it and here I am a few years later best I’ve ever been.
Yeah my first time I grew some B+ BRF in a shotgun fruiting chamber took 49+ fresh wet grams and had an amazing time in my room with amazing closed eye visuals syncing to whatever music I was listening to. During lateralus a song by tool I literally saw a color changing grid flashing while my eyes were closed I felt very connected to life and at peace. Later in the trip I was done with the music and just lay there unforcefully meditating and saw these neon and pastel colored native type God like figures staring down at me like they were trying to teach me something but it literally scared the fucking shit out of me and broke my meditation lol. It didn't ruin that trip though. Unfortunately because I grew them myself and I had such an amazing time, I didn't the rest to go bad so a day or two later I tripped again because I was so curious about this is new world I was voyaging into. But shitballs it was wrong decision and now tripping is always overwhelming for me and I dont know how to incorporate the teachings into this weird world of the U.S.A
I had a freakish experience tripping on Atlantis in a public park in Holland and basically worked myself up into thinking I would be attacked at any moment lol. I remember thinking “fuck it, if I die I die,” and like clockwork the surrender to serenity flipped the trip completely around. I felt that Atlantis love too 😁
“Shoot the lock off!” I lost my spit
I’ve learned to treat every trip as if it’s my first time no matter the dose. I can’t count how many times in my naïveté I’ve thought to myself “I’ve tripped before I know what to expect from this dose” only to later go “HOLY SHIT JESUS CHRIST WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT!?” Terrence was spot on when he said shrooms are usually very gentle with beginners if they approach it with respect. It’s the experienced trippers that get cocky that get their asses kicked.
Absolutely, I was halfway through reading your comment and said to myself, I got cocky last night! Thanks for the advice
I got my ass kicked tonight... 😅 just with 2.5 g. And I have done 5g, 8.5g, 12g, 15g etc. before. Sometimes the dosage doesn't even matter. If the mushrooms want to take you somewhere, they will.
I might be lucky because i feel like i'm unable to get cocky with those stuff. I always do everything by the book and am always anxious and scared before taking them, just breathing deep, trying dancing and breathing, going with the flow until i settle into a stable state which is just about when the gut discomfort and nausea wear off. Never had a bad trip. But these beginnings when i have nausea end stomachal discomfort lead to some bad thoughts that i need to just deliver myself and wait it out and i go through it landing in a good stable and marvelous side
One of the most powerful experiences came when I started feeling a bad come up. I was on 3g of some solid shrooms and my last trip was pretty nasty and I felt the same anxiety creeping up so I remembered what Terence said about singing. With no other idea I just sang the first thing that came to mind and I slowly started feeling relief and a lightness coming out of my chest in stead of being dragged down. Coming up through singing, even if it's just vocalization or improvisation is one of the most blessed states I'd ever been in on any substance and it made the following experience the most loving and nurturing trips I had ever had. Proof enough of a saying in my country that goes "One who sings has no ill thoughts" and I haven't failed to sing every time I've tripped afterwards.
Aww tell me more I haven’t heard of this
"One who sings has no ill thoughts" - are you from Balkan?
@@theTranscendentOnesthats what came to my mind also :D
The thing to remember for me has always been, “just hold on, and find the lesson”. Understanding it will wear off before you know it. And then ironically, when recanting the experience, feeling foolish about how you responded to the journey lol. Sometimes when you knock on the universes’ door, it actually opens. Don’t get scared now lol.
Interestingly this mechanism/approach lowers "normal anxiety" attacks too
very nicely put!
Same here... just hold on and find the lesson. Don't cave and freak out or you will end up doing stupid shit and feel that pang of "oh no, please god no" when you open your door in the morning and find you've thrown a dining room chair through the window

Duude 🍄👀🕳️🤔
Lol this is a great comment
Thank you. Perfect.
I find Bad trips sometimes teach lessons... But you need to hold yourself together and not cave to fear. Good trips are just awe inspiring.

Yes indeed
One time I was tripping on shrooms and I had a broken collar bone that had been healed 1 or 2 weeks at most and on the trip I brought myself to do push-ups

Crazy Terence story starts at 10:00
The animation is amazing. Terrence is slowly making his living presence known through the inter dimensional portals of the internet 😂
Hes so right. Shrooms usually bite you after a few trips. The first few are usually smooth going.
I've done it numerous times and never had an issue
I am super grateful of one particular bad trip I had. I did have some "bad trips" with Salvia before but nothing like the one that I still remember so vividly. Since then I have never had a bad trip again and have always had amazing experiences with Psychedelics but that particular "bad trip" was incredibly life changing.
As a short example... I would experience multiple death scenarios (possibly 1000s that felt incredibly real, it was so confusing to me) and I would freak out that each time I died I wouldn't be able to get back to my original life. After all the death scenarios I met a blue being that was me but also everyone / the Universe and I was standing on a blue line and could see the Universe below me, I could see planets and galaxies and was told by the blue being that this happens to me in every incarnation and I would always freak out because I would forget I was the Universe lol
So much happened in that "bad trip", just thought I'd give a quick example of what happened, it felt like I was gone for years haha
I truly believe in reincarnation after that trip.
Awesome story
I don’t think people should take their trips literally
@@seanmatthewking i don't haha but it def felt real at the time! 😅 but it did change my life in such a positive way, sometimes I feel a bit too lucky with the way my life is haha it led me to finding people like Ram Dass who have helped me a lot in life. I've only done lsd since and just had a nice feeling of oneness when I have done it and the visuals seem to be the same every time, mainly just patterns that look similar to Raava from Legend of Korra lol. I've had LSD around 12 times since that trip and they are always those same patterns everywhere haha. Can look up "Korra Raava" for an example. Not sure why but it is cool to look at lol
The time was passing by soooo slowly, did you had that too? 2 minuts seems a lifetime
I had the exact same trip and it was so fucking scary I really don't know why but I died over and over again and I could never return to my normal self that's crazy I've been wanting to do another trip but been scared to since
TM's humour is just so spot on ... his story about the cops had me in tears.
personally i farted just as he delivered that joke. it smelled good
@@Freedom21stCenturi 🤣
"What do you do about bad trips, if you have character you live through them and after a few months go back to it"
Or years... depending on how much of your mind you lost and how clear it was that getting drawn to the darkest side really is like you barely held on to the ledge of a bottomless pit.
Letting go is unthinkable at that point.
@@DaZeDmerlin yeah man I can relate. Im at a point where I actually don’t see myself tripping again. Got the message if you know what I mean.
@@stefanlouw6395 I think I understand. I got two messages that changed me. And a bad trip truly worthy of the term, probably more a psychotic break, that got me off psychedelics for 4 years, except for DMT.
Both happened about ten years ago.
One time I experienced ego death and entered a realm that felt so ancient, and I knew right away that I was home again. I forgot about that place from the day I was born and I knew I will come back over and over again. I’ve been there what felt like, thousands of times. It was home.
After that I became interested in Buddhism. (It made me understand Samsara)
A second time I experienced how everything is an illusion and could clearly see that everything is connected and truly one. I also realized that no one really knows this and we’re all creating this illusion of separation. I understood that everything comes from one core intelligence, divided over countless forms, unknowingly connected.
That got me interested in Hinduism. (That made me understand Advaita Vedanta)
But I also know that devoted meditation, brain tumors, mystical experiences, etc can give that exact experience.
Does it mean it’s the answer?
That reincarnation is real and we can liberate ourselves from the circle of rebirth through enlightenment?
I don’t know. It’s what my brain tells me, but that doesn’t prove it’s validity.
It’s an experience a lot of people share through different means, religion is built upon such experiences. We try to explain the ineffable, but we don’t even understand it.
I don’t feel the need to trip really hard anymore, but I still trip a few times a year to try and heal my soul, (normal doses, strong but not ego death strong), I believe in the medicinal benefits, but those deep experiences, I don’t need anymore.
Not for now at least.
@@DaZeDmerlin wow man thank you so much for sharing such an in depth and personal story. that was incredible to read.
Ive got a few questions:
You said you carried on with DMT? Don’t you find DMT too heavy? Ive never done DMT but I have done Ayahuasca once.
Another thing, I was brought up in Christianity. I’m not practicing. Strayed from that path long ago BUT my trips are always very heaven and hell. And when I say always I mean in the strong doses. It always takes me to a kind of “hell” realm. Not sure what the experience is trying to tell me by doin that.
All I can say is that my last trip scared me so much that Im actually partially convinced that psychedelics open you up to evil spirits/ hell realms. I don’t know.
I also don’t want to jump to quick conclusions because I know how our minds just want to make sense of things by rationalizing everything.
Anyway thanks for listening 🙏🏻
@@stefanlouw6395 You’re welcome, I’m glad you could get something out of it.
We share some similarities.
I also did Ayahuasca once, and it was a rich and soothing experience, but I feel like the dose was too small, no purging, but the experience was beautiful.
As for DMT, I have trouble smoking it right. (And I’ve been trying just about everything) I eventually bought a Glass Vapor Genie, which is a perfect way to inhale a very smooth vapor. But I just can’t hold it in well enough.
With DMT it’s important to get a good hit, preferably all at once, and hold it for about 20 seconds, but my lungs fail on me, and I almost never break through. I don’t think I ever have completely.
It’s always a warm and beautiful experience, but almost never rough, or deep. I had many people break through, but I’m not cut out for it. So DMT was still safe and predictable for me, it never scared me. (I respect it, and know it should scare me, but it was always rather mild for me). Even 100mg, it would blast me off if I could hold that in for sure, but when I try it in 3 hits, like many suggest, it just keeps me in this realm, the visuals get very strong, but I’m not going anywhere.
I was also raised Christian, and when that darkness comes when the trip becomes really intense and thing go wrong, I also associate it with hell, and feel a dark force trying to take me to that void, resembling hell.
I also saw a friend morph into the devil, he looked basically the same, but his eyes and facial expression showed me true evil, I was convinced he was in fact the devil himself trying to murder me.
We were at a party and I took two tabs and I was with people i didn’t know that well. Set and setting are so important, but setting to me is crucial. A rough trip in the comfort of your home is better than at some party with people you don’t really know enough.
I quickly walked away telling him to leave me alone, scared shitless, and was eventually convinced I was already killed but my spirit was still wandering around to experience the moment of my demise before it could pass on.
I saw blood gushing out of stab wounds that weren’t there. Every footstep was my killer. It was my personal hell on earth.
That was the trip that stopped me from taking psychedelics for a few years.
As for the Christian thematics. I assume it’s all indoctrination. We mirror what we were brought up with.
Good and evil, heaven and hell.
They are concepts that make sense to describe what’s happening to us, but in the religious sense, I don’t feel like it has any value.
There’s nothing wrong with doses that are manageable, you can still get a lot out of them.
Perhaps in time you will learn to work with psychedelics again. But really, finding your path sober is probably much more rewarding.
talking to cops on acid is not fun. last century, underage sitting in a van on acid when a cop rolls up and says we have to leave the parking lot. I tell him 'we cant the driver is inside the show' he says we have five minutes or he's coming back because we will be officially trespassing then, and as he slides the door shut, i look down at my feet in relief only to notice the pile of illegal fireworks on the floor by me. the driver returned and we skedaddled. ah good times
Lol
Lmao. Nice

It's like watching a sitcom with a laughing track
Terrence had plenty of wonderful insights to share but there's definitely a weird cult of personality around him.
🙏🏾 thanks for all your work in gathering these rare McKenna recordings. Much appreciated 👍🏾⚡️😁🔥
Perfect Timing. Thank you man!
I will never get over how amazing this channel is for compiling the brilliant works of Terrance!
What an amazing topic to be covered by an amazing mind.
Thanks for continuing to upload these
absolutely brilliant talk and editing. i can relate so so much wow
the laughing at 1.5 speed sounds like a bad trip
Thank you for the tears of joy. And thank you for the joy of tears.
He mentioned aphex twin that's cool
Some of his stuff is real bad trip, like Come To Daddy.
I've had a very good trip listening to the Collapse EP and watching the music video. 😜
I'm glad others caught this.
Had so many good laughs watching this even though it was about bad trips lol
I think that's one good strategy: take it with humor!
great vid, people need to start hearing this fr...
Beautiful
No such thing as bad trips as long as you can push through it and come to realize depression/ anxiety/ general bad vibes are gifts as all emotions are. They're signals that there is work to be done, it isn't something to suppress but to contemplate
Yeah dude in theory you are right
There are no bad trips....only experiences that we can learn from (jmho). Great channel....thanks for all the amazing uploads 🕉🍄☯️😃
Articulation is one of the best tools For me during challenging experiences.
Did my boy just drop Aphex Twin?
Great videos man
fear and loathing on intro , nice touch plants
I dont think anybody can get across how bad, bad trips are! He made it sound like the movie hangover or something. In reality (or not reality) they are the worse thing you could ever experience! Nothing that can happen to you in real life could ever come close!
Haven't had bad trips but just like rock climber or another extreme sport I know what I'm getting into and I want to experience what ever I'm presented with. What ever the psychedelic wills me to experience. Set setting and intent
Dude that story about his friend..That shit is so real and raw man I can picture myself in his shoes and what I would be thinking. That's nuts dude.
Yum, got that message too about singing to dispell the bad thoughts. Xoxo
I've never hit the road of a "bad trip" however I am well aware of the "if your mind isn't ready you are inevitably gonna derail"
The story he talks about asking the policeman to shoot the door off is pure comedy, love it!!
"Oh, you're having a five minute freakout! Look at that, its already been four minutes, its almost over." -R.A.W
“Lets take 500 mics and hit the streets and mess with peoples mind” Amazing to imagine someone casually stating that
Done it. Massive doses, up to a point, can easily be handled, it just requires repeated experience at those levels to become comfortable with it. At anything remotely close to thumb print levels, forget about, but I've easily managed 14 hits of strong blotter. The Pranksters lived by this approach, of learning to be comfortable at extreme high doses.
Going to be using this advice next trip I take! Which, incidentally, is going to be the silent darkness trip 😉
Psilocybin wasn't terribly gentle with me as a beginner haha, it kicked my arse in an immediate and shocking way and the takeaway was, to my mind; "there's nothing here for you, you don't even know yourself". 16 years later, we had a chance reunion and it was magical in all the ways I'd wanted it to be as a young 20-something, who had lacked the capacity to even begin to listen to what the mushroom had to say.
"There's nothing else" was a message I've got during my first trip. Someway similar tho
8:30 “The thing to do is sit up and sing”. My tripping companion, who has many aliases, communicates with me and The Medicine via sacred Tibetan (Shamanic) instruments. Last night, for the first time, I negotiated brief intervals of straight mindedness. But I still did not manage to pay my bills...
You'd have a job singing any Aphex Twin 🤣 The good old row row row your boat has got me out of some sticky situations though. Thanks Terence.
I feel like bad trips are brought on by refusing to let the ego die;
When people try to fight that, and let their ‘egos’ remain in control, it brings intense anxiety….
The ‘bad’ ones always turn out to be the most meaningful in my opinion;
And when I say bad, I only mean the moments that were a little or a lot more intense than is comfortable, which never lasts the whole trip;
Music is a good way to ride the wave rather than being consumed by the wave
The first time i tripped it was the most terrifying experience of my life, but like he said, i lived and it built character
Shrooms are the most introspective psychedelic I have ever touched.
Rule number one in the universe: Don't panic .
This simple truth has blown my mind😂🙏
Sometimes it can amplify my anxiety so hard there's this strange place where I feel like if I go there I'm going to be finished, I'll be insane. Other than my first mush trip I cant seem to let go and experience ego death my resistance and fear of going insane from letting go is actually probably exactly what shoots my anxiety through the roof. So I've learned I can only trip once I have financial stability or my main loved ones have died, because I go through the death of loved ones as though they actually died every time.
Thats the shrooms telling you to noy be afraid of death. Taking them after your loved ones die will amplify your fear and regret. Taking them before will help you accept the fact that dying is a natural part of the process.
Thats awesome thanks, i felt similiar things in my trip
I remember having to walk two gals back to the bars the night before canada day a few years back, I took mushrooms not long before, they began to hit hard by the time I got them to the bars and my journey back alone was so strange, that whole night was a bad trip but the next day was paradise and I was just so glad to be alive lol
I was the clueless first timer that took too much and they were not gentle. It’s took me 20 years to unpack it all and only after a dmt hit can i truly understand it. All paths lead to the same place, just different scenery. Mushrooms were a very “earthy” path. I felt deeply immersed in the earth. I was in a tower, infinitely tall filled with chimeric entities all yelling about me being there. Floating with me through the whole experience, a solitary fractal “elf” that said nothing. It only observed. I wish i could have that experience again but with the experience and what little knowledge i have now. I can’t even microdose mushrooms now, the ego death instilled such a deep fear.
If it feared your ego death, it means you didnt understand or learn from it
Your not breathing dude. "Great insights" bless
terrence warms my soul
Terence has the loudest gulp of all time. Its in all his talks.
9:00 aphex twins! Richard i hope you've heard this one
That dude laughing in the background 😂 zoned in
When I was 16 a junior in high school and very new to LSD, I had tickets to see Frank Zappa and the mothers of invention.
It turns out we went into the Holiday Inn to use the bathroom before we went to the Civic Center where they were performing. On the way out, who comes walking in the front door but Frank and his bodyguard after his ordeal in London where he got pushed into the orchestral pit in the dark my son, jealous guy and he was on a wheelchair for a year. Anyway, during the concert the mothers were playing what I would consider monster music, they were all over the place and it was wonderful but at the same time it scared the shit out of me. The curtains behind the band were moving and yet they were not moving and then out of nowhere just spout out don’t do drugs. They’re bad for you and it gave me some food for thought Anyway, the lights went on for intermission and we moved up into the nosebleed section because we didn’t want to be so close. I just thought it would be better. I was starting to feel better so the band came back out and started jamming and my other friend who participated with me, decided that he was gonna have a bad tripand so we missed the rest of the concert and that’s my story. Interestingly enough it was in Frank’s hometown Baltimore and we went into the Holiday Inn and anybody who knows anything about Frank knows that Holiday Inn are important in his repertoire peace out🎉.
Agree with the last few sentences for sure regarding mushies. Great when beginner, can be hell once overdone

Today I saw my boy walking on low tides by the beach and I said to myself Oh damn he was jesus all along.
Bad trips often teach you something. Like to be humble and not assume you can take an overly large dose of a new plant or substance based on prior experience with unrelated plants or substances, shirking all notions of shamanic tradition and coming at it like an arrogant thrill-seeking consumerist. Not that I have done that or anything, but hypothetically if I did I bet the plant would put me in my place.
My bad trip started when I was taking a shower and had soap go in my nose, I felt the like I wasn’t going to be able to breath, I could taste and feel the burning pain, ended up blowing my nose for 20mins, I started bleeding and all I. remember was seeing the ceiling when I woke up, lmfao it was scary but exciting as well.
So you started blowing your nose for too long and passed out while doing so?
@@ronnieb4282 xd
Nice
I have always gotten something important out of a bad trip
Had a bummer on shrooms once - just this overwhelming feeling of something evil. I got rid of it by playing Bob Marley's One Love and with a set of rosary beads! but later on (like way after the trip ended) it sort of came back and made me think lots of gifts I had been given were evil, and to my eternal regret I threw them out. I understand now more what it was that i perceived, but that doesn't bring my stuff back so it's still a bummer. It was a paradoxical future loop to a worse future. I still don't know the cause though.

Interesting
Shoot the lock off LOL. If McKenna can have an episode like this i suddenly dont feel half as bad. RIP to the Genius, Poet, Saint.
When I spot someone who is having a rough patch from a choice of mistaking going a step to far with something... I sit down & explain that the panic attack is going to be worse & take as long or longer than the high, & higher state of mind your in now for fear of finding yourself at that point now... If you panic you have to deal with that as well, so deal with yourself & the drug. Don't panic because that will be & is a bad trip of its own right & equally as confusing for being an experience itself... Panic attacks & migraines are experiences that bad drugs to take or abuse will be similar for experiencing as effects. So I let others know when I can sense or spot a bad or rough patch for being to high... Not to let go of it being a rough patch to work thru quicker to pass, than let it ride out & roll u over into panic... mostly people have welcomed the intervention & advice. They instantly begin to think about their breathing & begin to slow that & themselves down without having to point it out to do. I think it helps for knowing panic & the high as separate things... It's also why some minds won't work well for want to be high. They aren't comfortable for being of it... or out of it. Lol
Has somebody good links to articles or videos about stopping prolonging bad trips with Benzodiazepines?
You must take this path slow. You simply cannot jump headfirst into a barrel of LSD or chow down a field of mushrooms. These things won't sugar code. If you know yourself you'll know what pace to go at but it will always be a slow one. If you want to "dive right in" try starting with a tab of acid or 3 grams of mushrooms, it will feel like diving in without losing your mind. This stuff is more powerful than you can possibly imagine
Take it easy but take it
Four of us took a bad trip once, sitting there gripping the table unable to even walk, I describe it as having your brain taken out of your head, strapped to a plank of wood then thrown into the ocean during a tropical cyclone, hell of a ride not pleasant, but funny thing is I realised a friend had taken one and gone to play a football match, somehow and way too late I got to his place to warn him and found him huddled in the shower and his mrs not real happy, it hit him during the game and he apparently just ran off the field mid game, through the crowd and into the car park and drove off and she found him curled up in the shower..ahhh so funny
The only time i enjoyed the audience laughter
Dextrose is a good dopamine booster in a bad trip situation. Combined with chocolate or a dose of cocoa will be more effective. Anyway, a bad trip will expose parts of your unconscious that aren’t in order and need healing. Investigating will be a second choice. I usually say in that situation: “Forgive my ignorance and please help me.” You will be surprised what “letting go” mean when you surrender…
*Hits the bomber*
Whoops! I was taking life seriously for a second
❤ Terrance ✌
Step into the Void unabashedly.
There are no "bad" trips. There are only possibilities to face your fears. I don't think even Mckenna knew about the progression of awareness and the results of Ego dissolution.
learn breathing techniques like the wim Hof method for bad trips...you can neutralize the feeling of dread/horror if you remember to breathe!!
I never smoke more than a joint, i would say i smoke half a joint and i feel great. But once i smoked alot like twice my regular basis. I thought "well i dont feel any diference" then suddenly, this feeling got me. I thought: "wait a minute, im not breathing... or am i? OH MY GOD I AM NOT, I FORGOT HOW TO BREATH" and i had the worst bad trip thinking i couldnt breath and that i was going to die
@@madeinusados2808 It’s crazy how much the line between physical and psychological can disappear. Of course, it’s all happening in the mind, but still. I know it can 100% feel like you’re not breathing when you are, and I know we can imagine all kinds of physical sensations.
The worst of my trip started when i started look in the mirror felt a overwellming sence of self hatred and after what felt like a few minutes of looking i felt a presence coming and i walked away
Said in the right way, I'm thinking a bad trip might withdraw from the phrase 'shoot the lock off'. I wonder what Terence would look like now?
Ironically Terrance had a bad mushroom trip and stopped taking psychedelics later in his life. It would be interesting to know what happened on that trip that scared him to not go in again. It is hush hush, but Dennis did mention that he talked to and was unhappy that Terrance was talking the talk but not walking the walk.
He possibly faced the fact that hes going to die from the cancer
i wouldn't blame or judge anybody for quitting after having an extremely unpleasant experience, regardless of what they may have said in the past. some trips on high doses can be disturbing to the core, stuff that you wouldn't wish on your worst enemy.
This.... important to note
🔥🔥🔥
holy shit Terence knew of Aphex Twin? Aphex Twin is how I got into Terence

@@vilhelmhellgren6464 we ate 7 g in a complete dark room together and he said he seen his soul and it’s a bright yellow light he said .... too bad the mushrooms made me sick so I was busy throwing up etc... meanwhile i look over at him while I’m done puking and he’s somewhere else not even knowing I just threw up... he didn’t see the light by then but he was saying a lot of information I’ve heard before in videos like these just like the mushrooms were telling him things but just confirming it when he woke up then a few hours into laying there he thought his phone light was shining but me and him both had our phones off...he was scared to look into it I told him to look into it since I didn’t see it and this is why we took a high dose he said it’s his soul... the crazy thing about all of this is I read a book a week before call the tibitean book of the dead a Buddhist book and it says you turn into a yellow light when you die 😵😵so this all blew my mind it’s like he seen it all bc he didn’t have the information I had and didn’t get sick but yeah he seen the “light” inside Buddhist talk about
@@nicomacs5452 Man that sounds like a hell of a trip, much love brother❤️
I would sing through it
I’m epileptic with temporal lobe epilepsy. My seizures are like hallucinations at times. And when I took mushrooms my ego separated and spoke to me lol and I was literally in space met god and everything . But since then I’m a bit scared of taking them because it’s soo similar to a seizure to me. It worries me because my friends say they know where they are during a trip as in sat in a living room. But I wasn’t in the living room I was in space lol. I didn’t kno I was in a living room lol. Anyway my heads still screwed lol.
Never ending loop of doom
Anyone knows the real talk of this. ? Would like hear the full of it thanks ❤
You never know. You may think you know. Exactly. This is why psychedelics work so well. They show you the bare-naked truth no coddling no sugar-coating this is why one ego death is on par with 25 years of psychotherapy. You unravel completely it's like losing everything and then being reborn without all the burdens of your past life. You work out all your shit, all your clutter. It's like your brain is a computer that's been running for a few years and has files all over the place, and psychedelics are a defragmentation program that straightens all the files out.
Holy shit. Is this rare audio?
What does he mean by: “ask again”?
mckenna for the win
This guy knows exactly what my visuals look like lol
Funny story within a grim one if you wade through this.
