I'm sorry, I just need to feel like i'm not alone in this right now... I feel so alone and shitty. I had a really hard trip today (fun, but the strongest i've tripped without wanting to die), and I am completely emotionally, physically, and mentally drained. I wish I had someone here to just hold me, just that creature comfort of someone else's skin and warmth and smell and the beat of their heart... It's kinda weird and sad, but right now I have no one else to reach out to. Anyone else ever feel this way?

Post script: I debated in my mind for a while about posting this, and I'm sorry if it constitutes spam or otherwise affends your sensibilities.

Anyone else ever feel this way?

Yes. Although not from tripping; Just from .. Life. Being on your own can be hard.

Yeah I can relate, don't worry you're not a faggot or anything. I just about made a thread like this earlier, I feel like......... wow? You know? Hopeless sort of, as far as love goes man, I already found something perfect and I have no shot, if I ever did I fucked it up now. It's stupid sounding but no, really, I connect with this person on a different level so it seems, and it is like there is a big force fieldd in front. You dig. Oh why did I post that? I just want the same thing you do dude.

I dunno what do do, i've never eeevver felt as empty/pitiful as I do today.

but good luck with your situation. hope i broke the ice for other commiserators.

In dealing with trips, specifically...

I always get that feeling after an intense trip... just the need to be with someone... to connect on the issue of human loneliness and misery and sit together and cuddle and fall asleep.

But... the solution is actually just to smoke a shit fuck load of weed.

I actually usually want my mom to hold me. I always want to call her at 5 in the morning when I usually finish tripping. I definitely relate, and if there's ANYONE you know who would want to come over and keep you company just call them and ask. Nothing bad could come of that. I have a lady friend that I'm deeply deeply in love with... talking to her used to help a lot. Even calling someone you wouldn't normally ever talk to and telling them your situation can sometimes be an awesome experience.

However, I must say again that loneliness and emotional emptiness after a trip can be epically bad and if there aren't people available to hold you, smoking weed will sort of... kick in certain aspects of the trip again and relieve that horrid emptiness feeling until you can fall asleep.

I know all about trips man.. Last time I came down (actually my 2nd time with shrooms, ate 2.5 g) felt kind of like this, but I was already with friends so you know..... it was ok I just bitched to them.

but its the worst feeling in the world not to be able to call someone up. I am also "deeply in love" with one of my lady friends, and I know she would talk to me for a good hour, cuz she has before.. she straight up told me one night how much she cared.. and it felt good but one of those things about this indescribable feeling is your.. inadequacies shining through you.

Oh it'll be awkward, you think. So you regress into some fucked up thoughts. The thing is I know the truth but I can't stop the feelings of worthlessness, it will be awkward, but this Friday I just sat there in her embrace listening to her comforting me like a damn baby and i just kept kissing her over and over.. and it is awkward. It suckz.

Peace my fellow miserables.

It was really awful... I'm still really down. I felt so low, 'cuz I just wanted to be in my girlfriend's arms, and she's half a country away, no one else was in the apartment, and I was way too lazy to walk through the snow to campus...

I still feel really alone, I never realized how much time I spend alone. It sucks. At least I'm not the only one here, though, who feels the abject suffering.
