i must admit I like the taste.... I cant really stand 'normal' mushrooms unless they are on a pizza or in some sorta sauce thats on my meat lol... but I just like these.. chewing em up slow and letting them just chill in my mouth for a bit... I like it...
I think they taste muck, dried or not, always make me gag... Well fucking worth it though! When I was at Glastonbury two years ago there was a stall sellin fresh ones and another stall directly accross from it selling pizza!! mmmm.... conveniently delicious!!!
haha sweet! i rather dislike the taste, too. sometimes, through association, it even fills me with pre-trip anxiety. yep. but it's all good.
a glass of orange juice and as little food as possible. i'm not sure, but i beleive a orange juice enhances a trip, i have heard it and had more intense visuals everytime i eat them with orange juice. but i can't compare becuase i started doing that on my 3rd trip, and ever since havn't eaten them without o.j.. but also, as little food as possible means more shrooms faster!
I toss em in a blender with juice(whatever i got), mix it all up , and gulp it all down like im shot gunning a beer..............Fun times, fun times
i havnt done them much so im prety anxious taking them anyway, but its kinda more like excitement though.... BTW does anyone have any tips on getting a less introspective trip? i tend to think too much when on them
you could either not take as much, just enough to feel giggly n stuff or maybe don't smoke any weed with it? i have really 'mental' trips and i can quickly think myself into depression or 'freak out' mode heh. but it's never been anything introspective or irrationally paranoid. the best way to have a good trip is almost always to be comfortable with yourself and your situation (in life or at the moment).
Ummm, I think thats the whole point. Enhancing your mindstate, visuals just happen to be a side effect of all the thoughts that come w/ shrooms, or are the thoughts a side effect of the visuals....either way, asking to do shrooms without thinking is like asking to smoke pot without getting high
my last probably 6 or 7 trips have been very low visuals (at least open eye), 3 mushrooms trips and the rest of those were acid.. even a time on 4 hits but I still have incredible inward mind journeys (and I'll have intense visuals right after I come out of it, but they fade within like a half hour) I used to get incredible visuals... crystalized light, everything being alive and breathing and glowing with energy... everything would be transformed.. my walls would all slant inward making just a little pathway for me to travel through... I remember using fruityloops and all the little buttons and knobs would be moving all over the place.. eating dinner with my parents as I had to chase my food around the plate... i dont know what happen.. but its definitly not like that anymore.. or at least it hasnt been in a while.. even when I smoke salvia its not as open-eye visual
Regarding introspection, If you get hung up on anything on a trip, try just moving to another location (within reason). Even the next room can be enough of an adventure to pull you out of deep introspection. The other alternative is to enjoy and benefit from the introspection by writing down some questions to yourself before the trip and purposefully address them while tripping (take notes). A trip plan is often a good idea, helps you get the most out of it. It's very rare for too much preparation to be bad for a trip.
I wrote this yesterday and then went out and had the best mushroom experience i've ever had. My friend and i went this place in Dublin on the coast called bray and walked along the seaside cliff walk for 3 hours until we reached this small town called greystones.. i had never experienced how wonderful nature can be on shrooms and this was amazing. It also made me realise how important setting is and that the name tripping is very apt because that day i took a journey through my head and sorted alot of shit out.. it was my third and by far my best.. I love those little guys. btw brokenwingz and synaptic ether, what you both wrote yesterday is so true and my latest experience made me realise this. Thanks for the help
I usually just munch em down straight, and wash them down with a drink. I've dipped them in chocolate syrup before though, and that's pretty good.
