Honestly, that isn’t the best advice. A bad trip can be anything from mild discomfort, to paranoia, to a full on traumatic nightmare experience that has the potential to scar your psyche for a while to come. I had one of those nightmare experiences about 20 years ago after eating datura stramonium seeds. It was a 2 and a half day death trip, that I only came out of by being forcibly strapped to a bed and injected with haloperidol in a hospital. That experience messed with me for about a decade afterwards.
Gotta be desperate for a high to take datura. That is a poisonous plant with unpredictable results. It grew regularly where we lived, and we had a physician family member who basically said if you’re going to get high even some of the harder drugs were a better choice than datura. He’d seen too many people who didn’t survive or came out with permanent damage. It was a poorer rural area where they worked, and combined with boredom people tried other shit to get high. Datura’s got a bad track record.
I was young and I honestly had no idea what I was doing. A friend of mine gave me the seeds and I had never even heard of the plant before that point, and 5 minutes later I was choking down the seeds. I was young and dumb, and this was a gigantic mistake I made that caused me extreme trauma for about 10 years afterward. I didn’t actually even know what a deliriant was, or that it was even possible to trip like that and have hallucinations that were absolutely terrifying, fully formed, and were much more real than reality itself.
