i had a semi-bad trip (on ecstasy) and i think i was just not expecting the effect to be so strong. i took half a pill, and the first hour was intense but the second one knocked me off my feet and made me cry uncontrollably.
still worth it though.
so, my advice to anyone who tries it for the first time is: LOW-DOSE. you have no idea how it will affect you, but you can stay safe by essentially trying with a very low dose first.
I don't know if in the case of all psychedelics this is true. I've often heard, and I think I agree, that having a good or bad trip is relatively independant of dose, rather it is based on set and setting. I've even heard it said that with for instance LSD it can be easier to have a somewhat higher dose, because with that you'll have no control, and you'll often be beyond even trying to control what's happening in your head. While with a low dose you might be very aware, and precisely for this reason more susceptible to paranoia and fear, which could still spiral into massive proportions. You might want to control what's happening in your head, and you'll find that you're unable to, which is conflicting. With ecstasy I certainly agree, I tend to think most people that use ecstasy use too high of a dose for their own good anyway. I go by the (max bodyweight in kg)x1,5mg total for 1 evening, and only do it once every 3 months or so.
I honestly think that's precisely what's scaring people, at least it would scare the heck out of me. It's like putting yourself in a submissive BDSM position with somebody you barely know. Who in their right mind wouldn't be scared as shit. Even if it ends up going well, the sensation of helplessness and fear might leave a permanent trauma on you.
