Coined by artist Jerry Cantrell on his sophomore album under the same name, a Degradation Trip is often interpreted as a reverse victory lap. Instead of looking back on what you have done with pride, it is more akin to wallowing in your own regret as a way to punish yourself into doing better in the future.
In the case of Jerry Cantrell, it comes as a looking back at his time in the band Alice In Chains before the tragic death of lead singer Layne Staley. What he would have done different, and what he would have said different, and looking at his own life to reflect on if he is going down the same path.

Guy 1: "Hey man, you alright?"
Guy 2: "Yeah, just kind of reflecting on mistakes. A Degradation Trip if you will."

Get the degradation tripmug. Similar to guilt-tripping; convincing someone to be involved in situations when they don't want to but you know they would have fun.

Get the Trip around the worldmug. Hallucinating after prolonged sleep deprivation. Unlike regular tripping, this is mostly done on accident, sometimes involving too much caffeine, or a sign of insomnia or other sleep disorder.
Hallucinations during night tripping are usually more horrifying in nature, involving shadows and flickering light. Someone may even think they see bugs crawling on the walls, or shadow people.

After typing his paper up until the early morning hours, Alan started night tripping. The fear caused by this made it nearly impossible for him to sleep, and he stayed up until sunrise.
