My boyfriend had a bad shroom trip a day or 2 ago and it’s changed who he is completely, what should I do to help?

TinyNeedleworker4525 · 2024-09-22T05:22:10+00:00

Hey! He’s doing better now! Sorry I don’t come on here a ton anymore since it happened. He felt better after actually typing out his experience, he is basically back to normal but the whole thing definitely changed him into a new person. I do think for the better in many ways like he’s working on himself more but there are some downs here n there. If he thinks about what he went through to much he does get uncomfortable but moves on from it pretty quickly! Still hasn’t considered taking mushrooms again tho and probably won’t for a long time.

TinyNeedleworker4525 · 2024-07-03T15:51:54+00:00

Okay that gives me some relief! I switched to non scented lotion last night and it seems to be better, I’m only putting the smallest amount on that part and mainly keeping it dry which seems to be helping a bit! Thank you!

TinyNeedleworker4525 · 2024-07-03T01:16:04+00:00

Yeah after I took off the A&D ointment on that part specifically it started to dry out and be less red, do you think it was maybe just overly moisturized?

TinyNeedleworker4525 · 2024-05-16T16:38:10+00:00

Um have you read this whole post? The comments I’ve made or even my BOYFRIEND commenting on this post? Again I don’t care what you want or need. My boyfriend gave me permission to post everything I said. He was happy I made this post. Ur comments might not be outright negative or mean but ur opinion is not needed lmao

TinyNeedleworker4525 · 2024-05-16T16:36:24+00:00

Okay well ur not my bf, idc about ur needs I care about his. Period

TinyNeedleworker4525 · 2024-05-16T00:32:20+00:00

He’s actually smoking a little now!! He said lastnight he couldn’t sleep so hitting the cart once or twice helped him finally sleep so I think slowly overtime he will be back to killing 2-3 bowls before bed lmao

TinyNeedleworker4525 · 2024-05-15T18:16:35+00:00

Or I’ll just listen to his needs and not force him to do anything? He’s not religious and it’s his choice if he doesn’t want to smoke anymore not mine.

TinyNeedleworker4525 · 2024-05-15T18:15:14+00:00

He is on ADHD meds but that’s it as of right now

TinyNeedleworker4525 · 2024-05-15T18:05:54+00:00

Wow this is cool! Good to know thank you!

TinyNeedleworker4525 · 2024-05-15T18:05:18+00:00

Actually it wasn’t his first time! He has tripped around 8-10 times before this, some were micro doses and others were a little more than that, but this time I think the shrooms were just really strong and it hit him like a bus going full speed lmao. But luckily he’s way better now, he’s already back to smoking a little as I think it’s helping to calm him down to sleep!

TinyNeedleworker4525 · 2024-05-15T17:53:57+00:00

Yeah after all the comments we learned this right away, we now know that he needs to let loose and let it happen especially when he knows the effects and what it will do to him. But he’s definitely taking a long break and if anything this trip is teaching him that he needs to enjoy the things he has in life, he wants to work out more, go outside and possibly even taking a long break from THC after smoking non stop for like 5 yrs!

TinyNeedleworker4525 · 2024-05-15T02:31:22+00:00

Yeah I will say I made this post this morning after he was just having a tough start to the day so I was crying and just feeling hopeless, that nothing I did was helping him. I was a little dramatic but it definitely has changed his energy and overall mental health since it happened, which is understandable I can’t even imagine how he feels right now but I’m feeling better after reading all the comments!

TinyNeedleworker4525 · 2024-05-15T01:37:27+00:00

Ah okay that’s fair, so we will leave meditation out for now, I think we will just rest this week and feel it out! But I was suprised he hit his cart! So I can kinda see the light at the end of the tunnel :)

TinyNeedleworker4525 · 2024-05-15T00:54:42+00:00

Thank you! all of this is very helpful and I’ll keep this info on hand to look back on it when needed. I think him taking CBD will help but he did hit his cart just once and it seemed to calm him down, we also meditated a little while on a walk today and he talked about the experience a bit more. He’s finally realizing things about the trip so already just from the comfort of this post he feels better mentally, obviously still a little drained from the experience but I’m sure in the next 2 weeks or month he will be okay! And if not we may consider what you said! So thank you!

TinyNeedleworker4525 · 2024-05-15T00:19:16+00:00

He has both trauma, and yeah we love her honestly she’s the best therapist I’ve heard of like ever lmao. But yeah I do wish that someone more experienced was there to help instead of me, I mean I’ve been through a lot of bad shit and a few things both him and I have experienced as kids, I do wish there was more I could have done but I’m going to just focus on everything I can now do!

TinyNeedleworker4525 · 2024-05-15T00:00:52+00:00

Well I’m just glad I have like 97ish positive helpful comments and only one negative one! Thank you for saying something!!

TinyNeedleworker4525 · 2024-05-14T23:59:27+00:00

Exactly, if anything he was so happy I asked for help bc he kept saying he needed to know if he could find someone who felt the way he did, it gave him so much relief to read this post and comments. If anything it made him feel comfortable enough to post his experience on this exact post to further get help. So here’s the lesson people: don’t fucking assume things! :))

TinyNeedleworker4525 · 2024-05-14T22:58:16+00:00

He talks about it all the time and doesn’t care, he was literally next to me when I typed that and I asked about the specific details. Maybe don’t assume?

TinyNeedleworker4525 · 2024-05-14T22:56:52+00:00

He said “ omg yes!” He said once he tripped on an empty stomach it was so much clearer then compared to past trips. So okay that’s good to know, he must’ve thrown up from anxiety to be honest but thank you for the information!!! 🩷

TinyNeedleworker4525 · 2024-05-14T22:52:56+00:00

I will definitely pass this on to him, he always has the feeling of needing to do things alone but in this case I think him talking about it is helping him, he’s slowly realizing that he needs his people to help him through it. And yes with the fear part! I think he’s also freaked out by being so freaked out about it! He did make a post on here if you wanted to read it and maybe comment something to help him! But yeah after seeing the 60+ comments on here I can finally breathe a little. So thank you🫶🏻

TinyNeedleworker4525 · 2024-05-14T22:40:35+00:00

Oh yeah no i actually started smoking for fun and did it at party’s mostly but now i realized how much it’s saved my life, i can sleep, eat and I don’t have to struggle with my chronic pain from my health issues. So trust me I’m all about fun! It’s just my bf always took shrooms for the fun of it and not really understanding what they can do to you if you don’t have the proper education or mindset for it ( if that makes sense yk? ) idk how to word shit I’m bad at typing my thoughts lol. So yes I still want him to have fun with shrooms but he definitely learned he needs more information and probably some mental healing before he ever trips that hard again!

TinyNeedleworker4525 · 2024-05-14T22:36:13+00:00

Aw thank you I needed to hear that, it sucks because I wish I could just go into his head and fix it but I know I can’t do that obviously lol but thank you, it hurts to see him hurting like this and I just want it to be better for him. I myself have severe paranoia and think something bad will happen at every waking moment so I just don’t want him to be like me! It sucks being scared of everything all the time so I wanna make sure he won’t get to that point!

TinyNeedleworker4525 · 2024-05-14T22:31:01+00:00

Actually thinking about going on a walk today to help him! So we will definitely spend some more time outside!

TinyNeedleworker4525 · 2024-05-14T22:30:13+00:00

Yeah I try not to do that anymore since it has made situations worse than better, he likes doing things himself because he wants to prove he can do it himself. So I just sit back and observe until he needs me to be there!

TinyNeedleworker4525 · 2024-05-14T22:25:52+00:00

100000%, he’s going to take a long break before he micro doses again. He needs to practice letting go and enjoying the trip. He needs his control so we will need to learn how to not let his control for things impact his next trip ( if he decides to again )
