Smoking weed while tripping?

I have tripped a fair amount (probably around 20 or so times) and have more recently been dabbling in doses between 200-350 micrograms. I have always been able to keep a controlled, positive mindset, even on more intense trips. However, on my most recent trip, I took 200ug and smoked a bowl of a pretty strong sativa right on the come up. This is something I rarely do, especially on doses higher than 100ug. Personally, smoking this amount intensified my trip tenfold and the visuals were amazing and almost overwhelming. The headspace on the other hand took on a very anxious tone and created what I felt was a pretty negative experience. You could say I was "freaking out man."

This is just my personal experience and obviously certain people react differently to different stimuli. I tend to feel slightly paranoid or anxious on certain strains of weed when not tripping anyway, so I'm sure this has something to do with it. There's no way to know exactly how it might effect your trip, but just proceed with caution because weed does have the potential to intensify a trip, even on a level that you may not be ready for. I would say start slow, maybe wait until you've already peaked and just take a small puff or two to get a feel for it.

Happy tripping and stay safe.
