It turns out I think I'm eating mushrooms for Christmas by myself. Recommendations for a positive solo experience?

THE MOST REALISTIC AND BRUTALLY DEPRESSING CHRISTMAS MOVIE
I'M DREAMING OF A BLACK CHRISTMAS
You know it's Capra's critique of culture? It's an inversion of reality, but not the way it's framed up to be.
The middle part without him is reality/portrait of society. The fantasy of wonderful small town life is on either end.

Sit in the dark, listen to records, etc.
Just make sure to write on your hand something like "It's OK, you're tripping balls". Last time I had a psychadellic experience I had a terrible trip and legitimately thought for a while that I would need to be institutionalized. A note like that would've helped me remember that it was a temporary thing and I could've gone back to enjoying watching kitties crawl a crossed the magical floor.
Personally, I would play music as loud as I possibly could if I was alone on Christmas, whether j was tripping or not!

Great idea! I hate doing psychedelics with other people, solo is definitely the way to go.
If you want to watch something, watch Samsara. Otherwise just put on your favorite records, keep a journal (just revisited an acid journal my roommate and I did, not very insightful, but really funny) and follow your (non-destructive) impulses.
