How can I tell the difference between a challenging trip and a panic reaction?

• Challenging trip: You feel emotional or introspective but still aware you’re safe.
• Panic reaction: You feel trapped, disoriented, or fear you’re losing control.

For panic reactions, breathe deeply, change environments, and use Trip Stopper. If distress doesn’t ease, seek medical help — staff in the Netherlands are familiar with psilocybin effects.
