Opinions - Does swiy have criteria or a checklist for taking a trip?

[pankreeas]

Swim was wondering what must be, and what must not be right in swiy's life to enter the psychadelic void. Also does swiy have a mental or written pre-trip checklist. Materials, notes, goals that should be accomplished with physical, or mental discovery?

For swim he must not have things looming on the horizon that would cause him to overthink too much. All possible negative issues on the forefront whould optimally be dealt with so deeper issues can be tackled.

For a checklist he always makes sure he has something to relieve anxiety and something to help doze off. Also a pen and paper must be close by.

Swim's "checklist" is some kpin within arms reach in case he freaks out, some diphenhydramine to take the edge off so he can go to sleep when the trips over, oh, and his trusty mp3 player with trippy tunes.

Swim can be in any mental state. Psychedelics can be fun, but they have also helped him through some of the most difficult moments.

Materials: diphenhydramine (for nausea and inevitable histamine reactions - his body thinks everything is out to get him), club soda, gatorade, music, and a terminal window open to his trip journal.

As far as goals are concerned, he's found that pre-determined goals simply don't work. He can plan to think about whatever he likes, but his mind will wander over to something else - often whatever he should really be thinking about.
