unlike most ppl i skipped mushrooms and went straight for the good ol LSD. i tripped about 3 or 4 times a week for an entire summer. i just bought some mushrooms on sunday. i got the last of a quap my boy had so i have roughly 5 grams. theres a good eigth of parts of caps and stems and then a good 2 grams of powder. im deciding if i should eat a full eigth my full time or if i should eat half of what i have in caps and stems and then eat the other half making tea with the powder my next judging that i like the mushrooms. any thoughts, tips, advice?
i think that acid is the best psychedelic to start with. i kind of feel as if mushrooms have more depth to them, more power. or atleast, they are just powerful in a different way, from a different source. it really depends on if you want to ease into it or just go straight for it. if you want to get to know the mushrooms a little then you should take a 1/2 eighth. but if you want to dive right in then take an eighth or like 2.5 grams. if youve got some good labbies 2.5 would probably ideal for a strong trip.
right, right. . . .i think ill eat a little more than half. leave like a quarter of the bulk material i got then eat it with the tea i make. thanks for the advice its much appreciated anybody else?
np. just make sure that when your making tea with the powder that you don't let any of the power into your tea! that shit's nasty! i'm guessing that is all the powder from the entire quap?
yeah pretty much lol, thats why theres practically 2 grams of it. my friend just gave me the last of it for the price of an eigth. i was just gonna put all the powder and tea bag and proceed to do the process of making tea as normally
You've tripped enough to be ready. Eat at least an eighth. More if you have it. It's more sedating than LSD, and has more of a mind fuck. I also think it feels warmer and more organic. As far as visuals, mushrooms tend to have more green, brown, red, tan, earthy colors, compared to the kaleidoscope of LSD. They tend to make more vine-like, snaking patterns instead of fractals. It also doesn't have that electric feeling that makes you wanna jump. There will probably be some anxiety on the come-up and a little stomach discomfort, probably gas or a little nausea. Nothing too bad. Watch for the waves when you're coming down. The first time you feel sober, you're probably not.
I went straight to Acid too but I didn't even think of which one to do first. I just wanted to get my "feet wet" with Psych's soo bad I grabbed whatever came my way next. But yeah when I first did shrooms I did 1/2 eighth with one friend, and then another friend who ate a whole 8th. Me an the other halfy were great, really good recreational dose for first time I'd guess. But my friend who ate the whole 8th had a bad trip... He was fine on acid but then tripped hard on the shrooms. He ate a half eight a few weeks later and had another bad trip. But everyones different! Just get a friend or two, a plan, some music and let your mind get blownnn!
mushrooms are the real deal medicine. this aint your hippie uncle's afternoon delight respect the mushroom. those who come to play, eventually must pay
i got you, i was originally planning on eating them and just tripping in my room, no real set plan just letting the trip take its course. you guys think a first trip shud be more structured or at least with a friend whos tripping as well?
just eating in your room with some good music, water, and anything else you might need is sufficient. a little word out of contemplative reverence goes a long way. make sure you can get comfortable where you are. just be open and ready to explore whatever is going to be shown to you. you should probably have an experienced friend come along too. he can partake as well just let him know that you are going to need him to stay on the lower on end of the dosage range.
i wouldn't be too worried about it. i mean mushrooms are powerful and deserve respect, but you can't be scared of the experience. if you have a decent amount of experience with lsd then you obviously know what tripping is like for you and how to handle yourself. you will probably be fine, even if you take a little too much in a less than stellar setting(not that there is anything wrong with tripping by yourself in your room, but you get what i mean). mushrooms pretty much ended my never-ending afterglow that i had from dosing lsd all summer, slapped me in the face, and then brought me back into reality. i guess that's all i have to say about that, lol.
thanks for the advice everybody! its really appreciated. i feel ive been somewhat loosing myself since that summer ended partaking in drugs to get fucked up and make my problems go away more than anything and i want this to be an experience to help my find the colors of my soul once again. ill post a thread letting everyone know how the trip went. peace and love
