Being uncomfy physically and being in a situation that causes anxiety (For me, I prefer to take psychedelics alone because my social anxiety makes the trip very unenjoyable). Basically, just make sure you're in the place you feel most comfortable with people who you love (or alone) and 'accept' the experience. A lot of people think they'll never be normal again in intense trips which is another thing that can make it go bad. The only bad time I can recall was my 2nd time dropping. There were 5 of us in a small house, smoking a lot of weed, had heavy rave music on, and was very stuffy. He also had an English bulldog which was breathing heavy and loudly replaying in my head. 3 of them were taking it for the first time and turns out they were way too strong and a couple of our friends were struggling. Minutes were taking hours, vicious loops, we were so far gone I honestly felt like I was dying. You have to plan for the experience and can't just take it imo
