i know those *look* like magic mushrooms but it's just a regular old mushroom tea i just figured all you mushroom connoisseurs here would appreciate the way it looks. drinking it now!
strange... it seems that the act of drinking this tea has put me into a pleasant meditative state. from here i will be referring to this unforeseen phenomena as a "trip"
well i think the combination of a low amount and the fact i recently started Lexapro means this is the best it's gonna get. i know, SSRIs usually block this, but i started 7 days ago so i figured they haven't built up in my system long enough to do much. and i don't think they have... i'm getting very tiny visual patterns (what i'd expect from how much i had), but oddly enough, the "feeling" is different- it's almost ecstatic, way more emotional than most other times i've done em. in a good way. haha my cat knows what's up... normally at this time of day he's running around freaking out, but he's being really calm, curling up next to me on my bed and purring.
is there suppose to be a picture somewhere? if so its invisible.. lol... .. wbat you mean but just a regular mushroom?
oh, damn.... yep there was supposed to be a picture, i can see it... not sure what the problem is lol it was just my disclaimer to what *may* have been an incriminating picture and i actually slept from like 2 PM until 3 30 AM (don't ask), and i woke up to the sound of rain outside and it felt like a good time to do that. i felt the beginnings of a trip but they were quieted pretty quickly, most likely by the SSRI... the early stage was very euphoric though and i still feel pretty good, but little/nothing in the way of visuals. edit: picture work now? i tried something different
yeah this shit has been giving me insomnia so fuckin bad... last night was the first time i got more than 5 hours of sleep this entire week, i managed to get 12 with the help of benadryl. but my mood has been way more stable this week so i dunno, i'll give it some time and see what happens. and orison, i'm actually not sure... i wanted to weigh it but my friend who has a scale is always working so i didn't get the chance to go over... it definitely wasn't more than 2 grams, though. it was leftover from some that i had several months ago, maybe even a year. they weren't great mushrooms to begin with anyway.
Word. I had a friend who was on lexapro for a little while and had the same kind of symptoms However, she said it didn't do much for her mood at all (but we've recently found out she's more ADD than depressed). My old doc tried to put me on them when I talked to him about my OCD/OCPD but I shot that down because I knew the effects they have on tripping, which was and is more important to me than the serotonin flatline that is an SSRI. But if it really helps you more than the side-effects fuck with you that's what matters, more than any negative effect on tripping. Whenever you do want to trip again though, it would probably be best to cycle off the anti-depressants--which I've never heard stories of.
mild trips are always worth taking.. but I think your defeating the purpose taking ssri's.. While it may help ease the hard trip, its a waste of money if you spending it to TRIP..
