I agree with that. Once I knew what to expect I really didn't like tripping with others. Sometimes one other person is ok but groups always sent me off to places I didn't like to go. Plus the trip gets trippier when you are on your own.
I do think someone who is new to psychedelics needs to be shown the ropes a couple of times though.
I agree. The worst experiences I had tripping always occurred with three or more. There's just too much happening.
Yeah that is a lot of the problem and sometimes people get a little too weird and that can throw off the whole feel of the trip.
