    ok i've been considering trying shrooms and i need to know some things. I know absolutely nothing about them except that they make you hallucinate and that is the affect i'm going for. If these are stupid questions please don't laugh at me, they are not meant for your amusement :)

    How long does a shroom high last?

    and also i weigh around 100 pounds, from experience what would you guys say would be a good dose for my first time?

    any help is appreciated
    Thanks

    I'd assume your refering to psilocybin mushrooms so first and foremost, you should read everything on this page.
    http://www.erowid.org/plants/mushrooms/mushrooms.shtml

    A psilocybe high will normally last anywhere from 2 to 10 hours depending on the dosage.

    For your's and everyones first time I always recommend 1.5 to 2.5 grams, always start low.

    Do not eat anything for at least 3 or 4 hours prior to ingestion. My prefered method of ingestion is in tea, which helps combat nausea and bad after taste. Just make some tea, throw the mushrooms in, drink the tea and eat the leftover mushrooms making sure to chew them thoroughly.

    Find an environment with a good vibe, I suggest a park, a feild, or the woods. Whatever is most fitting for you.

    Go into the experience with the right attitude, respect these earth given gifts.

    I wish you good luck.

    Make sure you have a friend with you so you don't get lonely, my friend tripped on friday and after he had his shroom coffee (ew) he had to leave, and he tripped all alone in his room for 5 hours, said it was horrible.
    At a 1.5-2.5 gram dose you will probably be fucked for 5 hours after ingestion (that includes come up) so basically if you take them at 6 dont expect to be sober until 11.
    Shroom tea works well, also have some tums or something similar to stop the nausea it worked great for me.
    Try not to think about bad things, or things you don't like it will make you depressed.
    I also suggest sticking to your house, and staring at the rug, or any textured surface, outside isn't nearly as amazing as in your house with all your stuff.

    MAKE SURE YOU DON'T TALK TO ANY PARENTS OR AUTHORITY FIGURES, you may not be able to control yourself properly, and may fall over or laugh at them, or just stare at them really creepy.
    My grandpa is still wondering why the fuck it took me 40 mins to turn on the comp for him last week, hopefully he wont find out or I will die.

    You deffinitly need to have a good mindset before hand to avoid the infamous 'bad trip' Shroom tea is the best way to consume it, the first time i did shrooms i ate it in a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, BAD idea (my friend is dumb) Go to the park or in the woods and enjoy the beauty, stay happy and smoke some weed =D

    Peanut Butter sandwhich (without jelly) worked well for me, masked the taste well. I think adding the jelly would have been a bad idea but I think the peanut butter alone accompanies the earthy taste of the mushrooms well. Everyone is different though.. :p

    Ok, I too suggest 1.5 to 3 grams first time (split an eighth with a good friend). Also, although the outdoors can be far more interesting, I also recomend staying inside your first time. I only say this because you're more likely to feel safer and more comfortable there. I've never had a problem with the taste or indigestion (even with freshly picked wet ones) but i have a strong stomach, so tea may be good if you're not sure. Also, shrooms and weed go together quite well, so I would also recomend smoking a bowl right after taking them, and depending on how it goes, maybe a couple more throughout the trip. And to reiterate some of the previous advice:
    • Don't trip alone, even if the other person is sober, just not by yourself.
    • Mindset is important, just be relaxed and under no stress or worry.
    • Don't eat for a few hours before, or it will pretty much be a waste.
    I'd be happy to answer any other questions.

    Ya if you go outside you have to worry about a lot of things, inside is much better, you can appreciate the visuals. Last time I wasted it by walking around for an hour, constant moving sort of killed the visuals, plus it was freezing so it was sobering us up.

    Ya it would be much better in winter, because then you dont have to worry about being cold, and like dieing of exposure, or going sober.
    Probably 27C would be the best shrooming weather, with not too much sun, a nice overcast sky.
    Also go somewhere where you wont run into people, people were horrible when i was walking around on shrooms.
    Me and my friend were like "SHHHH! someones behind us... are they still behind us? I dunno take a quick peek *peeks* OMG they are still behind us! QUICK! lets go right here" and then we'd zig zag haha.

    People are annoying when they say: what are you talking about? the whole time, just to confuse you in your trip. AVOID PEOPLE LIKE THAT.

    Ya I do some dumb things on shrooms, today I took like 4 grams and vomited again. I was too full when I ate them. Everything was melting, it was a horrible enviroment (wires coming down from the tv, ribbons on the ceiling) but I just rode it out, I figure, eventually I will throw up, feel better, and then hit the stonewall and be sober instantly.

    The jelly didnt make it that bad. Yeah peanut butter kills the taste, but it sucked because peanut butter is sticky and its hard to swallow it especially with shrooms in it.

    If ur in a somewhat warm climate, please spend most of ur time out doors. i have found shrooms to be a very natural drug meant for natural settings. even if u are indoors, everything will seem alive - thats the shroom feeling, wheras with acid everything has more of an electric quality. i find that shrooms indoors can tend to get overwhelming and the closed environment seems to suffocate you. i've tripped mush a few times inside and felt like all my thoughts were sort of cycling in the room, and as soon as i stepped out there was a feeling of release and freedom. enjoy the gifts of nature in nature, as you urself are one.

    have fun! its a lot more than just make u hallucinate.... much love

    Both times I've tripped we put the shrooms in a blender with a little bit of OJ and ground that shit up, added more OJ just to dillute it a bit, then drank that. Sometimes the little chunks of shrooms get stuck in your teeth, but over all its been a pretty good method of ingestion. Worked for me both times =D

    Definitely split an 1/8 with a friend on a nice warm sunny day. Go chill outside and enjoy nature. First time I tripped was in my friends house at night. We started coming up as we were playing Gamecube. F-Zero and Smash Brothers, I can't even describe how fucked those games are sober, let alone coming up on shrooms. But that was nothing compared to how we were feeling an hour later. Watching the patterns on the carpet and so forth. Then at 2 in the morning walking a quarter of a mile to a bridge over the highway. We just chilled in the framework of the bridge in the dark and listened to cars come from miles down the road then blow bast under us. Sick stuff.

    Throwing the shrooms on a burger is good from what I hear too. Tums are good to have for insurance in case you start to feel sick. But yeah, just go into them with a chill mind and some chill company in a chill place and you'll have a great time!
