I am a newbie psychonaut by any means, I had only a couple of LSD trips, as fantastically mind shredding as they were. LSD was quite "clean" and "clear" as I also tried hawaiian baby woodrose seeds and similar ethnobotanicals a couple of times, which happened to be much darker and essentially tapped into different and much more primal mental states than LSD did, but which also came with quite nauseating physical side effects. So I got my hands on some of these Sclerotia Atlantis (philosopher's stones,truffels). These are my first mushrooms and I am a bit baffled as to how to consume them, as some people report having a "heavy stomach" on them, which happens to be one of the aspects I don't really like about ebs. Even though I am absolutely prepared to endure these if unavoidable, I would like to ask if there is a way to consume them without becoming sick? I feel this takes away from the experience, even though in some cases it seems to be an essential part of the experience itself, a rite of passage if you will, which is why I feel a bit silly even asking this question.
Don't feel silly, standard question. Make a tea with them - that kills off any nasties and will reduce the heaviness - but it'll still be there. Tea also hits you quicker and harder cos your body isn't having to break down shroom material to release the good stuff, but means it lasts less time too. But, I like the gradual shroom creep.. and the nasties that are present on the shrooms are a good way to exercise your immune system anyway Anyhow, the stomach isn't that bad, not anywhere near as nauseating as the woodrose. Enjoy
I know what you mean, I also like the gradual coming up it's a quite exctatic gradation, even though it might be a bit unpleasant at times, but I still think I'll be better off just munching them up without thinking too much about it aww I feel like a psychedelic baby waiting to be born
Let me know how it goes. I've been considering giving these a go. How do they compare to cubensis: Effects, Potency, Duration, etc... You could always do an ethyl alcohol extraction and evaporate the Ethyl leaving cubensis goodies. Throw that in a capsule and your good.
