Do all hallucinogenics cause anxiety?

For me, dxm can cause massive anxiety. I once took 200mg (not a big dose) and went to get cigarettes. I almost freaked out when I was around people. I got the cigarettes and ran home, totally paranoid. Go figure.

Shrooms can cause massive anxiety in me, that's why I only take them in a very controlled setting: at home, alone. This way I can deal best with everything that happens, and once I fight myself through, I always have a rewarding trip. I feel I got a lot stronger and less anxious through this mental training.

The only psychedelic that has not caused any anxiety in me is mescaline, rather San Pedro cactus. I have not been able to take really high amounts, but I have been taking good doses where I was still tripping 10-12 hours after onset.
These trips have always felt like psychedelic mdma to me, very euphoric, very bright, colorful and happy.

Its a persons reaction to the drugs not the drugs .

It's a molecule thrown into a complex pool of other molecules.

The mind and the substance have equal share of the experience imo.

Basically, they remove anxiety. But they can also be a catalyst of anxiety, especially if you are an anxious personnality, and that could cause panic attacks.
