Thank god this man exists. My dad has always just told me "never do drugs" I mean seriously when has that ever worked, by god I will do them, but I WILL test them and be sensible with them.
I always give my cat a substance what I am on. To make my cat feels more like me, the omnipotent mycelium. However, I can some times experience bad trips, when I realize that I have no cat, and the cat is me.
I was the trip sitter for my friend who wanted to do acid for his first time. It was going well for the first few hours but he started freaking out over his parents. No matter what I said it didn't calm him down. I hugged him for over 2 hours while he sobbed into my shirt. Once he felt better I made him a fruit tray, and we then colored for the rest of his trip.
I highly reccomend, as a trip sitter, to be as confident, casually compassionate, and happy as possible. I've found that when i'm tripping and a sober person is staring at me saying things like "do you feel it yet? are you okay? do you see stuff?" it would really freak me out no matter how well I knew the person. I think the best thing is to just casually hang out with them, don't look at the tripping person any differently than you normally would, and be as casual as possible. Be like "hey pass the doritos, bro" and even casually joke with them. Basically, I think the best thing is do not outwardly act any differently, while at the same time being very aware of what is going on and everybody's wellbeing. And if any problems do arise, be super compassionate and understanding and not-judgmental in the least. The judgement is the worst part for a most people. Theyre already encountering a lot while tripping, and you only want to make things easier and more pleasant. just my opinion.
+Taylor The Warlock Well said. It can be almost 'boring' for people that usually talk a lot.. but it plays such an important role in the trippers mind.
one time i was trip sitting my friend for his first time on LSD, he was fine for the first 4 hours then all of the sudden he’s started panicking and saying he was gonna get caught by the cops i just said “hey man ur good” , he said “you’re right” and didn’t freak out the rest of the trip. sometimes that’s all it takes
+Adam Moer he's also the biggest drug supplier in the world, so with his fake test kits, you'll think you're getting fake drugs and you'll keep buying drugs again and again in hopes of getting real ones. What a genius.
Today i did LSD with my friend and my friend was the 'trip sitter', and i made my friend watch this video before i took the acid and after it he understood what there is to do which is needed for the person who is 'tripping'. Thankyou for this video dude really means a lot!.
Dealing with high people is like dealing with a confused kid (or mentally disabled person). In the sense that you need to stay as calm as possible, open-minded, and to remember that they can be way more affected by the ambiance (or even themes of discussion) than you. If they're all happy and intense, you should encourage them. If they're very calm and cozy, you should avoid interacting too much, let them live the moment. If they're horny and all, well you still have the right to set your personal boundaries, but don't be too intense if you have to push them away, be gentle. And if they're angry or sad, don't try to go too deep woth words with them, and instead, you should try to help them through more subtle things like changing the music and lighting to help them get in a better zone.
Bro u making me regret breaking up with my ex 😢. She would have been the best trip siter . She good with mental stuff like helping mental people .ohhhhh welll
@@LaynesPayne6702 no, not anyone i know. at the most they might feel curious about their body and what things feel like, sort of like you likely were when you were younger, or like they would prefer to be naked just for the sake of comfort, but it's nothing like what MDMA or even some strains of weed can cause

Tripping Azzi ...have you listened to what the person in this video is trying to communicate.?? Do NOT mix antidepressants and psychedelic substances..
Just something to add, if you are going to take LSD or Shrooms and you're type 1 diabetic. due to a reduced appetite you may eventually have dangerously low blood sugar levels (hypoglycemia) So make sure you have drinks with sugar in them such as monster or lucozade to avoid low blood sugar. But also have water around as drinking to much of this drinks can be dangerous for diabetics. I suggest having a few mouth fulls every hour to 2 hours to make sure your bloods stay round the 7 to 10 mark.
You are probably the most valuable channel on UA-cam. You are doing a great job with your videos and your approach on making drug use safer and prevent people from damaging themselves or their surroundings. Keep going! :) (y)
I tripped on Hawaiian baby woodrose recently (22 seed raw). And decided to listen to some heavy metal at the peak. Worst decision of my life. I spent an eternity in hell and thought I had died.
The last time I did 10 seeds the heavy metal music was produced by my stomach, when I was hugging my porcelain trip sitter. And between the conversations with my buddy I was in matrix.
That's why I would recommend psilocybin instead of HBWR if it is also legal in your country (or in a country where you decided to have a nice vacation with porcelain entities and the architect of the matrix). I tried HBWR 3 times. The score is: HBWR - 3, my stomach - 0.
+Dr. Darko this is just me but sometimes I don't mind taking the "risk" to have more spiritual bonding with people so I don't mind them venturing down the rabbit hole after me if they'd like lol
for fun...I like to have different rooms with different types of music. one room with more upbeat music where you can go crazy and another with something like chillout or ambient
A good way to calm the tripper down is to let them known that no one has ever died from taking that drug. For the most common psychedelics this is true so that works great.
I can't trip, I have a psychotic disorder meaning I'm prone to psychosis (Bipolar 1). However I find tripping fascinating and often trip sit for my friends (even though Ive never experienced a psychedelic before) This video was extremely helpful, my friends had the time of there lives last night (it was there first trip) and it went super-well, I cannot thank this video (and this channel) enough. Ive also come to learn that a 5 minute sober walk is a 30 minute trip walk
As someone who started their tripping journey late last year and has tripped plenty of time this year, huge props to you for all of that. It's completely impossible to understand what it's like to trip without tripping before, but understanding this video helps a bunch. The most effective way to get someone out of it is to take them for a walk. Exploring any random places tripping is amazing and can turn a challenging trip into something a bit easier. I especially recommend this if they get into loops. Personally it's really easy for me to have that loop hit due to a previous trip and I need to get someone else to help save myself and go for an exploration outside
I wouldn’t say can’t, you would honestly probably be fine. Did a doctor tell you that or did you just come to that conclusion? Usually it’s only schizophrenia you have to worry about if I’m not mistaken. I would personally try a small dose and go from there, but you do what you see best.
@@titohhh420 Yep! Thanks for checking in, and yes I did talk to my doctor about it! I always wanted to try it out but my condition is very similar to schizophrenia in the sense that I also can hear voices and believe outlandish ideas. So if I even do a little bit I could get thrown over the edge, I can't touch weed either sadly. I always wanted to try it out though! I'm just happy I could trip sit my friends so I'm still apart of the experience with them! 😁
Bonus Tip: if you’re tripping in a group with both genders and you know you’re going to be somewhere with gendered bathrooms, try to make sure you have a trip sitter for each gender so you can actually go into the bathroom if that’s where they’re going. There’s nothing more frustrating than having someone freaking out in a bathroom that you can’t go into when your job is to look after them
i doubt anyone will see nor acknowledge this but when you tell them “you’re okay” when they feel paranoid it makes it worse. try to find other ways to prove it’s okay. because they will feel stupid and devalued when they are told “you’re okay” which can lead to more paranoi and distress
Valuable. So many people in ordinary life are disregarded or pushed away by being told “you’re okay, stop worrying”; it seems logical that when someone is *intensified* they will experience the negative association even more
I'm studying social work and it's really interesting to me how many of the people skills (like becoming a mirror for the other person) align with what social work students are taught. A lot of the advice you're giving is applicable to dealing with people experiencing psychosis, panic, or even just general anxiety too
You know those 100,000s of videos of "GUY ON SALVIA FREAKS OUT" or "DUDE TAKES LSD WITHOUT KNOWING" look at everyone in the room and don't do what they do
It's really fun to trip sit in my opinion. Seeing your buddy tripping balls and saying nonesense or beautiful words feels very satisfying and even honorable. Of course if they panic, it is one's responsibility to be there. Kinda is nerve wreaking, yes. But whenever all goes well, it is a very memorable experience Plus i like charging them 5 bucks. Win-win
Mariandra Muuk He actually lost his hair because of an acne medication he took more than he should of when he was a dumb teen haha, he made a video on it
Hey, man! I started following you a while back but I've never commented on any of your videos. Just wanted to let you know that I have a lot of respect for you, and what you're proactively doing for the psychedelic community. I already personally know most of the things you discuss with your viewers, but I still find myself unable to stop watching you talk about them. It's exciting to know how many people are interested in not only psychedelics, but also safety/harm reduction in relation to any and all psychoactive substances. Keep it up man, and don't mind the belligerent haters or ignorant, judgemental buffoons. You're doing good for the world. Just wanted to say thanks.
THIS VIDEO IS WRONG... The true way to TripSit is to lock arms around whoever is tripping and jump around them screaming "NIGHTMARE! NIGHTMARE! NIGHTMARE! NIGHTMARE!"
dude, that part about breathing and time was exactly what messed me up... on one trip I felt like I was breathing and my heart beating 10 times faster, I thought I was having a heart attack or some shit. I running out of my house, yelling at my neighbor to feel my heart beat and see if its normal , she said it seems a little bit fast... that lie just ensured me there was something physically wrong when there isn't. in the end, called the ambulances and they told me in was alright, just trippin hard.
So happy to hear some of this info. I've been researching this for a while now and your videos are really helping. Also, every time you say something is or has been beaten to death, but still repeat it, it's all new information to me. I don't care if you're 'beating it to death' this is the exact information I need to know and absorb. So thanks a bunch!
Good info. I wish my trip sitter in the woods a few years back knew what the hell she was doing. I was having the most beautiful time, but as we were walking out of the woods and decided to go on a drive, she started screaming as a joke and it scared the living shit out of me. Paranoia got the best of me and I stressed the whole drive, luckily that didn't start until I had already peaked or I would have probably lost my mind.
The best trip sitter possible is one that you trust, but one also experienced in the compound you're taking as well as taking it with you. As a tripping trip sitter, you're the source of both vibe and direction of the collective experience. Your emotional state will dictate the emotional state of your friend. Never project, never suggest and absolutely never reminisce. But know this, a social trip is different from a solo trip. It's completely different experiences, meaning sometimes you're in another room entirely while your friend is going through stuff under the covers in the darkness.
I think this may be the most necessary video you've released yet! Even though it all makes sense, most people (including myself) would probably be lost without this guide lol. I can't wait to embark on my first psychedelic adventure, hopefully it'll be soon
I learned a lot about my last trip watching this. when he referred to projecting your own insecurities on others it definitley made me understand more about why i was thinking what i was thinking during my experience
I'm incredible glad this channel exists. It's great to have such a good host discussing such good topics, and advising psychonauts new and old. I like to think I have a decent understanding of the area from my experiences, but it's great to be able to cross-reference my views and attitudes
+psychedsubstance eating snow w/ a big yellow sign saying you took acid was great. Awesome videos Adam, you have built up my psychedelic understanding significantly. I look forward to joining you among the ranks as a psychonaut.
Trip sitting is so important..i helped alot if people by refocusing them in creative ways..one time i brought some candles and guided them through rough spots by playing melting and shaping wax..another was i put up a white sheet with tons of oaint and brushes and suggested that they try splattering the paint noon toxic of coarse..im creative and very intuitive and that can be a handy dandy tool when sitting.
I also have the same idea with being a trip sitter and taking a smaller dose (if the trip sitter is experienced and know what dosage is small enough to be sure you are sober enough to trip sit). Being influenced by the same substance it will get easier to create a bond with the trippers and them to you. You are "in their world" but you are also experienced and have taken a small dose so you are "in the real world too!". So you can in their eyes act like a "link to the real world" while at the same time being able to "step in theirs" and also "understand what they are experiencing". A totally sober person can to someone who trips be percieved as "to sober to understand my concerns". The trippers expanded mind, whether imagined or real might not trust a totally sober person because the tripper feels disconnected from the sober state / "normal reality" and any person being in that sober state. That´s why I believe that there could be an advantage in taking a smaller dose as a trip sitter. But only in the right circumstances of course. I.e the trip sitter being experienced and the right type of person for this type of trip setup.
I tripped on mushrooms after a beating that should have put me in a hospital. After I'd refused an ambulance or LE response. Before I go any further, I was with someone who advised against it but I had already started the process alone... Needless to say, the person who sold it to me and knew my plan didn't say a word but I've never blamed him, although others did. If I'd had a trip-sitter, I doubt they would have agreed at all. I had no idea wtf I was doing, was desperate to stop the relentless physical pain from broken ribs, facial bones, black eyes, and mental pain from being stalked and hunted for 45 minutes prior to it actually happening. I'd broken my glasses the day before so I had no chance to escape at any point because I can only see about 7 feet ahead clearly. Wtf I was thinking I don't remember. That near fatal trip was my last one, it took years to recover and was one of the top 5 most idiotic decisions of my life. God bless sitters. Thanks for this video. It's needed!
My first trip was an arrogant, spontaneous dosing of myself. Without my mother swooping in to save the day, idk how bad it could have gotten. I was panicked until she came to my aid. Through walking up and down the street for 5-6 hrs, while my mother pretended everything was fine and she wasn’t nervous at all, my trip was saved and I now have an intense passion for psychs.
Hey dude not sure if I've ever commented on your videos but sending big love from the UK. found your channel early last year and always look forward to your uploads ☺ just wanted to say I think you are doing something really special. so, thanks!
On 2 tabs of 25i at 3am in my trip sitters basement and he fell asleep like 10 minutes ago and then this vid poped up on my phone cuz I hav the notifications on and I'm watching straight outa Compton and it just finished aswell
The thing I like most about most of his videos is that at first he talks about pretty basic stuff that most people understand, but as the video goes on, he gets way more in depth and starts talking about a lot that isn't obvious.
***** I have had the butter for edibles and I ate the butter all by its self and I had no psychadelic effects but if u want psychadelic affects try a very potent sativa
I had a couple bad trips in the past and they actually scared me because my mind was much darker than I thought. I'm now thinking about micro dosing to somewhat check on my mental state. Your videos are extremely helpful! Much Love!
I followed the setting rule religiously every time i tripped until I got offered shrooms on my way to a rave once, best rave of my life! So the "safe environment" and "only trip with people you're close to" is not set in stone, but I still deem it as very very important! Especially when you're new to psychadelics.
***** The girl who offered me them (a friend of mine today, but this was the first time we met) always takes shrooms when going out instead of mdma/alcohol/speed, never gone sour for her so I believe that mindset (set) plays a bigger roll than people might think (more than setting maybe) sry if I'm writing weird english isnt my first language
***** I would definitely consider myself an introvert, and I was fine :) I had taken some speed prior to though maybe that mattered a little? My friend though, she's the biggest extrovert I know haha
It's called Spiritism. You are a spirit with an ego attached to it. Your true essence wakes up from deep sleep after you pass on! Alan Kardec is an interesting read.
I think death anxiety is one of the worst fears you can have, because it’s uncontrollable, it happens to everyone, and it’s difficult or impossible to really understand.
Real Fights actually watch the video and you’ll see that the “incense” on the right is actually a slim jim. No need to use shit wad either. This channel is for sharing love and drug information.
Thank you for your videos :) your ego death video saved me two years ago when I was having my first experience :) I don't have people to do stuff with so I was alone. It was like having you in the room with me. You're a good friend!
The_Adem most 2cb ive taken is two quite strong pills, while outside on kingsday (a very well known holiday in the Netherlands where EVERYONE is on the street partying). Make sure u know that ur with others who know what u did and allow the 2cb to have its effects. Its a trip that is very steerable so setting has a great effect on ur trip. Make sure that, if its the first time, you are in a quiet place to really know what ur reaction is
You are literally my guru. I watch all your videos all I learn to much. Every time I've had an anxiety attack I watch one of your videos and calm down. You are really appreciated and I hope you know it!
thanks for making such a great video, as a novice I was shocked at how strong these substances are,even taking a relatively low dose like 30 or 40 ug has seen swim lose her grip on reality. having someone there to help him out and stay physically safe is an absolute imperative now swims discovered this amazing chemical. really great video and channel
+Kieran Black to hear him explain the experience immediately afterwards. Explaining a trip from a year or two ago is different then explaining one a minute or two ago.
never tripped but you're still my favourite youtuber by a long shot! not only are you educated in what you're talking about, you show that you're educated with your vocabulary, posture, etc.. so much respect!!
I once took mushrooms with a guy my friend met at a rave who lived in a trailer on the back of his truck. Wound up being one of the best trips and best guys I've met. I was low key freaked out because at the park we were the only people who spoke English.
Wow I felt like he called me out I never realized that the reason sometimes I think people are manipulating me when I’m tripping is because I am manipulative person. I never realized this, I guess internally I become manipulative sometimes when I’m in that state, I tell people that I know what they are trying to do 😂. I am mind blown right now
Hey man I fallow you and appreciate what you do, my first trip on L i wrongly decided to do it alone and i was 2 and a halve tabs in it was helpful but horrible and amazing at the same time my mom was in the house sleeping and i wanted to tell her and talk to her it was what i need it at the time since i pop out of a bobble life when i left cuba and within 3 years i lost my college career went homeless for 3 month almost died in several occasions my family lost all our property back in cuba to come to USA and my parents divorced here. Complete chaos I didn't know what to do who to help how to do what, anyway a good friend of mine and you entertained me and school me in throug most of the trip so think you thank you thank you for being there for me
The public washroom as a last resort safe place saved my brain at a festival. Fantastic tip. Sat on a toilet for an hour with anxiety, then realized I wasn't anxious, I just thought the floor looked cool.
the only time i did acid my sitter - very experienced with many substances - took the same dose as me. beforehand he assured me that looking after me will be his first priority throughout the whole thing. this made me feel very safe because he was someone i trusted. everything was going wonderfully until halfway during the trip, we came back inside my flat after a short walk outside. he then said that i shouldn't walk around outside during my first time on this. i remarked that i trusted him to stop me from doing anything stupid. he then said that he's just an observer and wouldn't intervene with anything. if i was to run off or something, he wouldn't try to stop me, he'll just be entertained. at that time him saying this started making me feel extremely uneasy and even kind of unsafe. anxiety was quickly starting to build up and this time i knew that if the anxiety turns into a bad trip i suddenly had no one to turn to which made me start to panic a bit. at that point i almost felt his presence as a threat. i thought he might actually manipulate me into doing something reckless on purpose, just for fun. but then my reasoning turned on along with the realisation of how irrational my reaction is and how a bad trip because of what he said was absolutely unnecessary. i also had to remind myself that although my current perception of reality is strongly altered, i still knew what reality was like from before. so i could stop myself from doing something like setting myself on fire - which was kinda tempting at some point while i was holding a lighter. not because of any suicidal thoughts, just seemed like it would be fun. after this realisation the trip continued as smoothly as before, the whole experience was magical, one of the best nights of my life. i felt pretty good about succeeding to ground myself and to rationalise while my mind was in space but i still wouldn't dare to do it on my own and now i don't have a sitter that is at the same time trustworthy, familiar with the substance effects and willing to spare 15 hrs to watch over me and to be alert the whole time :/
This video was long due video. All of what you said is very practical and well said. Yes,some people cross boundaries,other seaters will just stay mute,I think there's some balance to it Hilarious catatonic state :)
There is a website called the bad trip guide. If you can't remember how to get out of a bad trip or if you're not familiar with tripping go to the site.
Although I will be tripping with my friends for the first time tomorrow (and not have sober person) I hope I can keep these things in mind for my first trip to help a friend if they need it thank you. :)
the first time i was tripping, i did it in a super dark, super secluded area with my 2 friends in the middle of the night😂😂 it was scary asf when i was sober, but after, i was compleatly combfortable. like, i felt that i was the night, and the darkness was my domain. weird
You had me cracking when you said you did not know if others were speaking English or Chinese.. Whenever I trip, I feel the same way, I mean I hear everybody talking in Hindi at party places where most of the attendees will be Europeans!!!

Cats are great tripsitters. Every time I feel a bad trip coming on, my cat is there for me. I focus on her purring which calms me way down.
dmarcus1260 God I love my cat
Did you know that if you trip with your cat And you pas out, breathing so low that the cat don't feel your breath, the cat will eat you.

Dealing with high people is like dealing with a confused kid (or mentally disabled person). In the sense that you need to stay as calm as possible, open-minded, and to remember that they can be way more affected by the ambiance (or even themes of discussion) than you.
If they're all happy and intense, you should encourage them. If they're very calm and cozy, you should avoid interacting too much, let them live the moment. If they're horny and all, well you still have the right to set your personal boundaries, but don't be too intense if you have to push them away, be gentle. And if they're angry or sad, don't try to go too deep woth words with them, and instead, you should try to help them through more subtle things like changing the music and lighting to help them get in a better zone.

Just something to add, if you are going to take LSD or Shrooms and you're type 1 diabetic. due to a reduced appetite you may eventually have dangerously low blood sugar levels (hypoglycemia) So make sure you have drinks with sugar in them such as monster or lucozade to avoid low blood sugar. But also have water around as drinking to much of this drinks can be dangerous for diabetics. I suggest having a few mouth fulls every hour to 2 hours to make sure your bloods stay round the 7 to 10 mark.

Avoid caffeine drinks though. Caffeine can really fuck up a trip

+Dr. Darko this is just me but sometimes I don't mind taking the "risk" to have more spiritual bonding with people so I don't mind them venturing down the rabbit hole after me if they'd like lol
+Tims ummmm its "They're" house lern how too spell
YOu make fucking excellent content. I've watched like 30 of your videos and they've all been extremely informative and relatable. Thank you!
for fun...I like to have different rooms with different types of music. one room with more upbeat music where you can go crazy and another with something like chillout or ambient
+ImageSounds this is a brilliant idea
+ImageSounds Cool idea, I'll try that next time I trip.
+Kalvin N tripping on shrooms? or acid
+cocoarecords mushrooms. I suppose both work well, although I'd prefer mushrooms over LSD
ImageSounds dude they are dangerous every drug is
Someone asking you to be their trip-sitter should be an honor. IMO. They put their faith/trust in you and they are comfortable to be open about it.
A good way to calm the tripper down is to let them known that no one has ever died from taking that drug. For the most common psychedelics this is true so that works great.

I can't trip, I have a psychotic disorder meaning I'm prone to psychosis (Bipolar 1). However I find tripping fascinating and often trip sit for my friends (even though Ive never experienced a psychedelic before) This video was extremely helpful, my friends had the time of there lives last night (it was there first trip) and it went super-well, I cannot thank this video (and this channel) enough. Ive also come to learn that a 5 minute sober walk is a 30 minute trip walk
As someone who started their tripping journey late last year and has tripped plenty of time this year, huge props to you for all of that. It's completely impossible to understand what it's like to trip without tripping before, but understanding this video helps a bunch. The most effective way to get someone out of it is to take them for a walk. Exploring any random places tripping is amazing and can turn a challenging trip into something a bit easier. I especially recommend this if they get into loops. Personally it's really easy for me to have that loop hit due to a previous trip and I need to get someone else to help save myself and go for an exploration outside
I wouldn’t say can’t, you would honestly probably be fine. Did a doctor tell you that or did you just come to that conclusion? Usually it’s only schizophrenia you have to worry about if I’m not mistaken. I would personally try a small dose and go from there, but you do what you see best.
@@titohhh420 Yep! Thanks for checking in, and yes I did talk to my doctor about it! I always wanted to try it out but my condition is very similar to schizophrenia in the sense that I also can hear voices and believe outlandish ideas. So if I even do a little bit I could get thrown over the edge, I can't touch weed either sadly.
I always wanted to try it out though! I'm just happy I could trip sit my friends so I'm still apart of the experience with them! 😁
Just by watching your vids i am getting happier
be happy
my turtle as well gets happier by just watching
+OelOel same! he calms me too
Bonus Tip: if you’re tripping in a group with both genders and you know you’re going to be somewhere with gendered bathrooms, try to make sure you have a trip sitter for each gender so you can actually go into the bathroom if that’s where they’re going. There’s nothing more frustrating than having someone freaking out in a bathroom that you can’t go into when your job is to look after them
i doubt anyone will see nor acknowledge this but when you tell them “you’re okay” when they feel paranoid it makes it worse. try to find other ways to prove it’s okay. because they will feel stupid and devalued when they are told “you’re okay” which can lead to more paranoi and distress
Valuable. So many people in ordinary life are disregarded or pushed away by being told “you’re okay, stop worrying”; it seems logical that when someone is *intensified* they will experience the negative association even more
I'm studying social work and it's really interesting to me how many of the people skills (like becoming a mirror for the other person) align with what social work students are taught. A lot of the advice you're giving is applicable to dealing with people experiencing psychosis, panic, or even just general anxiety too
You know those 100,000s of videos of "GUY ON SALVIA FREAKS OUT" or "DUDE TAKES LSD WITHOUT KNOWING" look at everyone in the room and don't do what they do
This is perfect!

My friends are great tripsitters, they did everything you said and let me hug them as much as I wanted
It's really fun to trip sit in my opinion. Seeing your buddy tripping balls and saying nonesense or beautiful words feels very satisfying and even honorable.
Of course if they panic, it is one's responsibility to be there.
Kinda is nerve wreaking, yes.
But whenever all goes well, it is a very memorable experience
Plus i like charging them 5 bucks. Win-win
Damn...I'm a horrible trip sitter...I am always narrating my philosophies

Hey, man! I started following you a while back but I've never commented on any of your videos. Just wanted to let you know that I have a lot of respect for you, and what you're proactively doing for the psychedelic community. I already personally know most of the things you discuss with your viewers, but I still find myself unable to stop watching you talk about them. It's exciting to know how many people are interested in not only psychedelics, but also safety/harm reduction in relation to any and all psychoactive substances. Keep it up man, and don't mind the belligerent haters or ignorant, judgemental buffoons. You're doing good for the world. Just wanted to say thanks.
THIS VIDEO IS WRONG... The true way to TripSit is to lock arms around whoever is tripping and jump around them screaming "NIGHTMARE! NIGHTMARE! NIGHTMARE! NIGHTMARE!"

dude, that part about breathing and time was exactly what messed me up... on one trip I felt like I was breathing and my heart beating 10 times faster, I thought I was having a heart attack or some shit. I running out of my house, yelling at my neighbor to feel my heart beat and see if its normal , she said it seems a little bit fast... that lie just ensured me there was something physically wrong when there isn't. in the end, called the ambulances and they told me in was alright, just trippin hard.
ur a tweaker
So happy to hear some of this info. I've been researching this for a while now and your videos are really helping. Also, every time you say something is or has been beaten to death, but still repeat it, it's all new information to me. I don't care if you're 'beating it to death' this is the exact information I need to know and absorb. So thanks a bunch!
Bros the researcher, have you ever done anything yourself?
Good info. I wish my trip sitter in the woods a few years back knew what the hell she was doing. I was having the most beautiful time, but as we were walking out of the woods and decided to go on a drive, she started screaming as a joke and it scared the living shit out of me. Paranoia got the best of me and I stressed the whole drive, luckily that didn't start until I had already peaked or I would have probably lost my mind.
The best trip sitter possible is one that you trust, but one also experienced in the compound you're taking as well as taking it with you. As a tripping trip sitter, you're the source of both vibe and direction of the collective experience. Your emotional state will dictate the emotional state of your friend. Never project, never suggest and absolutely never reminisce. But know this, a social trip is different from a solo trip. It's completely different experiences, meaning sometimes you're in another room entirely while your friend is going through stuff under the covers in the darkness.
I think this may be the most necessary video you've released yet! Even though it all makes sense, most people (including myself) would probably be lost without this guide lol. I can't wait to embark on my first psychedelic adventure, hopefully it'll be soon

I learned a lot about my last trip watching this. when he referred to projecting your own insecurities on others it definitley made me understand more about why i was thinking what i was thinking during my experience
I'm incredible glad this channel exists. It's great to have such a good host discussing such good topics, and advising psychonauts new and old. I like to think I have a decent understanding of the area from my experiences, but it's great to be able to cross-reference my views and attitudes
+psychedsubstance eating snow w/ a big yellow sign saying you took acid was great. Awesome videos Adam, you have built up my psychedelic understanding significantly. I look forward to joining you among the ranks as a psychonaut.
Trip sitting is so important..i helped alot if people by refocusing them in creative ways..one time i brought some candles and guided them through rough spots by playing melting and shaping wax..another was i put up a white sheet with tons of oaint and brushes and suggested that they try splattering the paint noon toxic of coarse..im creative and very intuitive and that can be a handy dandy tool when sitting.

I also have the same idea with being a trip sitter and taking a smaller dose (if the trip sitter is experienced and know what dosage is small enough to be sure you are sober enough to trip sit). Being influenced by the same substance it will get easier to create a bond with the trippers and them to you. You are "in their world" but you are also experienced and have taken a small dose so you are "in the real world too!". So you can in their eyes act like a "link to the real world" while at the same time being able to "step in theirs" and also "understand what they are experiencing". A totally sober person can to someone who trips be percieved as "to sober to understand my concerns". The trippers expanded mind, whether imagined or real might not trust a totally sober person because the tripper feels disconnected from the sober state / "normal reality" and any person being in that sober state. That´s why I believe that there could be an advantage in taking a smaller dose as a trip sitter. But only in the right circumstances of course. I.e the trip sitter being experienced and the right type of person for this type of trip setup.
I tripped on mushrooms after a beating that should have put me in a hospital. After I'd refused an ambulance or LE response. Before I go any further, I was with someone who advised against it but I had already started the process alone... Needless to say, the person who sold it to me and knew my plan didn't say a word but I've never blamed him, although others did. If I'd had a trip-sitter, I doubt they would have agreed at all. I had no idea wtf I was doing, was desperate to stop the relentless physical pain from broken ribs, facial bones, black eyes, and mental pain from being stalked and hunted for 45 minutes prior to it actually happening. I'd broken my glasses the day before so I had no chance to escape at any point because I can only see about 7 feet ahead clearly. Wtf I was thinking I don't remember. That near fatal trip was my last one, it took years to recover and was one of the top 5 most idiotic decisions of my life. God bless sitters. Thanks for this video. It's needed!
Who beat u up??
Johnny Parsnips hard when you have no friends monkaS
My first trip was an arrogant, spontaneous dosing of myself. Without my mother swooping in to save the day, idk how bad it could have gotten. I was panicked until she came to my aid. Through walking up and down the street for 5-6 hrs, while my mother pretended everything was fine and she wasn’t nervous at all, my trip was saved and I now have an intense passion for psychs.
Hey dude not sure if I've ever commented on your videos but sending big love from the UK. found your channel early last year and always look forward to your uploads ☺ just wanted to say I think you are doing something really special. so, thanks!

Adam seems to be very nice.
rehab ads? fuckin classic man haha
The thing I like most about most of his videos is that at first he talks about pretty basic stuff that most people understand, but as the video goes on, he gets way more in depth and starts talking about a lot that isn't obvious.
such an important video. thank you
do u do psychidelics or just weed
+Splurt Splet not really

I have had the butter for edibles and I ate the butter all by its self and I had no psychadelic effects but if u want psychadelic affects try a very potent sativa
Oh wow I just noticed im a dumbass what ever u learn from ur mistakes
I need to find a trip sitter!
I really love this video..like a lot. He's doing a amazing job of informing people please continue to do so..
I had a couple bad trips in the past and they actually scared me because my mind was much darker than I thought. I'm now thinking about micro dosing to somewhat check on my mental state. Your videos are extremely helpful! Much Love!
I followed the setting rule religiously every time i tripped until I got offered shrooms on my way to a rave once, best rave of my life! So the "safe environment" and "only trip with people you're close to" is not set in stone, but I still deem it as very very important! Especially when you're new to psychadelics.
***** The girl who offered me them (a friend of mine today, but this was the first time we met) always takes shrooms when going out instead of mdma/alcohol/speed, never gone sour for her so I believe that mindset (set) plays a bigger roll than people might think (more than setting maybe)
sry if I'm writing weird english isnt my first language
***** I would definitely consider myself an introvert, and I was fine :) I had taken some speed prior to though maybe that mattered a little?
My friend though, she's the biggest extrovert I know haha
When I trip sit I just make sure people get hydrated and talk only if spoken too
The first rule of Trip-Sitting is,
if anyone begins to freak out,
just trip them and make them sit.
I feel like every tripsitter needs to watch this before actually tripsitting
Am currently watching this before i tripsit for the first time! 😄 Always wanna be informed before i do something i havent done before.
Miranda Cooke how did it go?
@@Yuukiosaki went great! My fiance and his friend did acid so they really enjoyed it all. !(:
I just gonna ask the voices in my head to take care of me while tripping :)
Does anyone feel like that life is a dream and that when we die, we wake up?
Yeah sometimes I do you're not alone man :)
It's called Spiritism. You are a spirit with an ego attached to it. Your true essence wakes up from deep sleep after you pass on! Alan Kardec is an interesting read.
I think death anxiety is one of the worst fears you can have, because it’s uncontrollable, it happens to everyone, and it’s difficult or impossible to really understand.
I trip sat at school. Had to do twice the work
I known you for a few years now. Now its my first time to Tripsit a budy of mine wish me luck. Thanks again
The slim jim in the vase killed me lmao
Cameron thats not a slim jim you shit wad. Its an incense
Real Fights actually watch the video and you’ll see that the “incense” on the right is actually a slim jim. No need to use shit wad either. This channel is for sharing love and drug information.
Real Fights ya wait till the end of the video shit wad and you’ll see it
Responsible drug use I am impressed.
So basically treat them like a baby👍
Thank you for your videos :) your ego death video saved me two years ago when I was having my first experience :) I don't have people to do stuff with so I was alone. It was like having you in the room with me. You're a good friend!
A "How to 2C-B (safe use guide)" type vid would be quite lovely! I love the videos, dude. Keep up all the hard work!!
The_Adem most 2cb ive taken is two quite strong pills, while outside on kingsday (a very well known holiday in the Netherlands where EVERYONE is on the street partying). Make sure u know that ur with others who know what u did and allow the 2cb to have its effects. Its a trip that is very steerable so setting has a great effect on ur trip. Make sure that, if its the first time, you are in a quiet place to really know what ur reaction is
Most Informative Video on youtube!!!!
Going deep tonight on PE. Your channel has been really helpful. Thanks man.

Honestly y’all this is probably one of the most needed channels on UA-cam at this time in the world
thanks for making such a great video, as a novice I was shocked at how strong these substances are,even taking a relatively low dose like 30 or 40 ug has seen swim lose her grip on reality. having someone there to help him out and stay physically safe is an absolute imperative now swims discovered this amazing chemical. really great video and channel

Omg. I was at the beginning of the bad trip phase...and this video helped me stay grounded
Nothing like a video at 7am PST over here
6:25 so fucking true. My first shroom trip, my blanket was like my sanctuary, that shit was my house/home for 6 hours lol
never tripped but you're still my favourite youtuber by a long shot! not only are you educated in what you're talking about, you show that you're educated with your vocabulary, posture, etc.. so much respect!!
I once took mushrooms with a guy my friend met at a rave who lived in a trailer on the back of his truck. Wound up being one of the best trips and best guys I've met. I was low key freaked out because at the park we were the only people who spoke English.
The conclusion is: Have GOOD friends to trip with them
6:22 why is it so true lmao 😂😂 the blanket is the only thing that feels safeeeee
Thank you Adam you really made a difference in the psychedelic scene.
This guy's videos always give me the biggest grin
Wow I felt like he called me out I never realized that the reason sometimes I think people are manipulating me when I’m tripping is because I am manipulative person. I never realized this, I guess internally I become manipulative sometimes when I’m in that state, I tell people that I know what they are trying to do 😂. I am mind blown right now
treat people how you would like to be treated . thats what i always say to myself.
Hey man I fallow you and appreciate what you do, my first trip on L i wrongly decided to do it alone and i was 2 and a halve tabs in it was helpful but horrible and amazing at the same time my mom was in the house sleeping and i wanted to tell her and talk to her it was what i need it at the time since i pop out of a bobble life when i left cuba and within 3 years i lost my college career went homeless for 3 month almost died in several occasions my family lost all our property back in cuba to come to USA and my parents divorced here. Complete chaos I didn't know what to do who to help how to do what, anyway a good friend of mine and you entertained me and school me in throug most of the trip so think you thank you thank you for being there for me
The public washroom as a last resort safe place saved my brain at a festival. Fantastic tip. Sat on a toilet for an hour with anxiety, then realized I wasn't anxious, I just thought the floor looked cool.
the only time i did acid my sitter - very experienced with many substances - took the same dose as me. beforehand he assured me that looking after me will be his first priority throughout the whole thing. this made me feel very safe because he was someone i trusted. everything was going wonderfully until halfway during the trip, we came back inside my flat after a short walk outside. he then said that i shouldn't walk around outside during my first time on this. i remarked that i trusted him to stop me from doing anything stupid. he then said that he's just an observer and wouldn't intervene with anything. if i was to run off or something, he wouldn't try to stop me, he'll just be entertained. at that time him saying this started making me feel extremely uneasy and even kind of unsafe. anxiety was quickly starting to build up and this time i knew that if the anxiety turns into a bad trip i suddenly had no one to turn to which made me start to panic a bit. at that point i almost felt his presence as a threat. i thought he might actually manipulate me into doing something reckless on purpose, just for fun. but then my reasoning turned on along with the realisation of how irrational my reaction is and how a bad trip because of what he said was absolutely unnecessary. i also had to remind myself that although my current perception of reality is strongly altered, i still knew what reality was like from before. so i could stop myself from doing something like setting myself on fire - which was kinda tempting at some point while i was holding a lighter. not because of any suicidal thoughts, just seemed like it would be fun. after this realisation the trip continued as smoothly as before, the whole experience was magical, one of the best nights of my life. i felt pretty good about succeeding to ground myself and to rationalise while my mind was in space but i still wouldn't dare to do it on my own and now i don't have a sitter that is at the same time trustworthy, familiar with the substance effects and willing to spare 15 hrs to watch over me and to be alert the whole time :/
This video was long due video.
All of what you said is very practical and well said.
Yes,some people cross boundaries,other seaters will just stay mute,I think there's some balance to it
Hilarious catatonic state :)
There is a website called the bad trip guide. If you can't remember how to get out of a bad trip or if you're not familiar with tripping go to the site.
Although I will be tripping with my friends for the first time tomorrow (and not have sober person) I hope I can keep these things in mind for my first trip to help a friend if they need it thank you. :)
Notification squad. Great vids I think you've helped a lot of people:)
the first time i was tripping, i did it in a super dark, super secluded area with my 2 friends in the middle of the night😂😂 it was scary asf when i was sober, but after, i was compleatly combfortable. like, i felt that i was the night, and the darkness was my domain. weird
You had me cracking when you said you did not know if others were speaking English or Chinese.. Whenever I trip, I feel the same way, I mean I hear everybody talking in Hindi at party places where most of the attendees will be Europeans!!!
