trip sitter
Hallucinogen experience supervisor
A trip sitter is someone who remains sober to watch over a person taking psychedelic drugs, ensuring their safety and providing reassurance during the experience.
The role parallels a designated driver but for hallucinogenic sessions: My roommate agreed to be my trip sitter the first time I tried mushrooms.
Trip sitters help manage difficult moments and keep the user grounded.
