First trip on liberty caps

So, yesterday I finally got to try liberty caps!
I´ve had earlier experiences with 4-ho-met; MDMA (crystals), E, Amphetamine, LSD, Magic Truffles (Atlantis), Weed, Hash.

(I´m trying to write as comprehensive as possible, but I still feel really slow!)

We were a group of 7, I had never tripped with that many people before. But 2 of them were my childhood friends, my boyfriend was there, and the rest also really good friends. So I felt absolutely comfortable with the people around me.

I am currently in some kind of life crisis; and I did feel pretty bad some days ago. But prior to the trip I really worked with myself; I did a lot of yoga and meditations the day before. "Confronted" my fears and my anxiety; and I felt that I could handle it good enough to be able to trip.

So we arrived at our friends house and prepared the shrooms. At 8PM we ate them. I had not eaten anything but tomatosoup that day, so I was really really starving; before eating the shrooms it was almost unbearable.

We sat down in the living room, just talking, listening to music. The shrooms hit REALLY fast, after 20 minutes I already felt a little "weird". I went outside to have a smoke, and my body felt really great and light. I looked at the tree in front of us and I could already notice that it was vibrating and pulsating a little.

As I went inside; I started to notice the room had changed a little. Everything in the background was glowing and vibrating a little. I think we started to laugh a lot (which we did through the entire trip).

We took out loads of pillows and blankets on the floor and just sat down and got cozy. My body felt really nice. The days before the trip my neck and left shoulder was killing me, (I have had whiplash since 2006) and I was worried it would get worse while tripping. But I wasn't tense at all, I felt my spine and every muscle; I can't describe how GOOD my body felt. I'm used to having a little pain all the time, so it was a real delight feeling this great.

I laid on top on my boyfriend who laid down on the floor, and It felt as if we were one body with 2 heads. It felt a little weird; so I laid down next to him to look up at the wooden ceiling.

(I went to look into the mirror, and I looked so beautiful haha. I was really amazed by how good I looked; crazy. Just had to squeeze this in, 2 of my friends felt the same way about themselves too.)

Now this is my first really trippy moment; because the wooden ceiling started to move and float around, there were all these patterns and the more I stared the more powerful the visuals got. After a while it looked like someone was projecting images on the ceiling; and it looked similar to the "Shpongle"-face.

It´s so hard to tell what I did in what order; so I´ll just try to write down as much as I can remember; ignoring when they happened.

We laughed a lot, everyone was telling everyone what they were experiencing all the time and it was really just constant "babbeling". The music sounded really interesting too and it kinda influenced the visuals.

Somewhere around here we took hits from the bong, and it felt really really good. We ate a little too, but the hunger was all gone. I was really chocked about the amounts of food I usually eat because it felt like a little piece of chocolate was really much.

I went outside to have another smoke; and I looked down on the grass with all the leaves. The leaves all changed into a geometrical pattern; I had to focus a lot to see it, but it was really beautiful. When I closed my eyes I saw neon dots that shaped into pulsating patterns.

As I went inside again I sat down on the sofa and but my legs on my boyfriend. We felt like we melted together, being close to him was really nice. This is when I started to trip really hard; and so did everyone else. My boyfriend kept talking about us being in a desert in the middle of nowhere.

My friend had a pink fake-fur hat with ears, and my boyfriend took it because; and I quote; "he had to tell the hat that it´s dead". He kind of strangled and squeezed it with his hand. And man, I think this is really one of the strongest visual hallucination I have EVER had.

His hand and the hat really morphed together, and it didn't look like his hand or the hat anymore; it didn't look anything like fur or human flesh. It was just a pink THING with spikes, almost like a starfish with a lot of arms; I remember seeing it and being chocked because I had never seen something be THAT different from what it looks in reality.

I looked at my boyfriend; my legs where resting on his torso and it kinda looked like he was only a head. He melted into the sofa.

Now I can only recommend something like fur to look at while tripping. It´s really easy to get lost and stare at all the "hair". I had a fake-fur hat too, I put it on my knee and started looking at it. It looked like grass, then as if there were hundreds of tiny shrooms growing on it. The color changed a little too, and after a while my hat looked like moss growing on my leg. While staring at the hat the room around me changed massively. It was as if we were at a completely different place; and it looked as if it was daylight too. (The sun goes down at around 7PM now, so I was really dark by now).

What I also noticed during this trip; is that I have that REALLY distinguished way of taking a deep breath when I´m tripping. My best friend sat next to me and she instantly recognized my "trip-breathing" and laughed. What my other friends all noticed where that I move really different when I trip; I repeat certain movements a lot, without even noticing that I´m even doing a movement.

Also I noticed how I was suddenly "sharing" the trip I had with my friend, we looked at each other from times to times and had eye contact, it felt as if I could read her thoughts. Every time I closed my eyes I saw her in front of me.

One thing I really noticed now, after tripping a couple of times, is that I get really "manic"; I´m always afraid to "waste" a trip so I want to do new things all the time. Others seem much comfortable with only doing what they do, but I can never really seem to relax for a longer time. I just want things to forward, I want things to happen. I really wanted to go for a walk and I was the one trying to gather everyone all the time.

After a couple of tries we finally got out of the house. We decided to take a walk down to the ocean that was really near. We walked through a small forrest, even though it was really dark it just looked really cozy and nice.

My friend and I had bananas, and I have no idea how it happened, but I took my friends glove and put it on the banana. And suddenly, the banana looked like an incredibly cute penguin! We probably acted like retards, but we played with our "penguins" and man, really, bananas with gloves...

As we got to the beach, we also saw the incredible spa by the sea. Just a huge building with a lot of lights, and huge glass-walls that you could look into, it was so damn beautiful! The ocean was breathtaking, and the moon reflected on the water. My friend and I decided to walk down the bridge that lead into the ocean. It felt like a never ending bridge, the end seemed never to arrive. But it did, after a while. The water looked like silk, so fucking smooth! (Pardon my french).

My friend and I where amazed by the huge amounts of water that we could see, and how crazy it was that 80% of the world are oceans. We talked about how everything we are, has its origin in the oceans. And how asphalt never could exist without the ocean, because asphalt is an human invention, and had we not evolved from small things in the sea there would never be no asphalt.

We walked back, and for a while we were standing on a parking lot and I don't think anyone of us had the slightest idea what we where doing. Then our friend remembered he wanted to show us something special. He took us to, what could have been a greenhouse, only inside there was a dinner table and a huge chandelier and christmas lights. I can't remember if he ever told us what it was; maybe it was part of the spa. But it was just so random, this beautiful greenhouse with all these pretty christmas lights.

We walked back and through the forrest, it looked really calming and nice. I think things where starting to calm down a little. As we went inside again we all sat down, talked a little, I still had some visuals but it was all just not that strong anymore. I think we just chilled on the sofa, while the heaviest parts of the trip faded away.

We decided to watch something, so I put on "Pikachu- The Movie". To make it worse, the movie was on japanese, without subtitles. Not that they did talk that much. It was just really weird, but the pokemons looked incredibly cute. It was impossible to even try to understand what happened, the pokemons just DID things, that´s what I can recall.

Afterwards we started to watch "Fear and loathing in Las Vegas". I´ve seen that movie a dozen of times, so It was a lot easier to follow. It was fun watching, because I still felt pretty weird even if the visuals where almost back to normal. I kept thinking that I really really "got" how the characters felt. I got pretty tired halfway in; so I retreated to a room where I´d decided to spend the night.

My boyfriend joined me too; there where 2 really narrow, small, beds so it was a little disappointing, because I wanted to be close to him. But we still laid down in one bed to cuddle. My body felt so incredibly weak. Still managed to make out, and it was sooo nice having him close to me.

We had a little sex, and it felt really amazing to have him inside of me. Really, I just wanted him so near and close to me as possible. It was really intimate and special; it felt as If I´d never been that close to somebody both with body and mind.

We said good night and went to bed in separate beds, and I must have fallen asleep INSTANTLY.

It was about 2AM at that point, so it had been about 6h since we took the shrooms.

It was a really nice trip, I felt great the entire time. The people we´re perfect fellow psychonauts. I think it would have been a better recreational trip If I´d been by myself or 1-2 people. There wasn't really any soul searching going on for me during the trip, I was just enjoying myself. I still think this trip brought a lot of positive aspects to my life, and it still was a really wonderful experience.

I would love to do shrooms again; it would be great doing it only my boyfriend and I. I´ll try and find more shrooms, or ask around If I could buy some; but I´ll wait at least a month before I do it again.

Also, here is a picture I drew during the trip. To be correct, I drew the face, and my friend drew the hair!

 

hi.
Liberty caps....yeah...these fungi can induce ..a profound psychedelic experience....im glad you posted your "trip report".
Dealing with the psilocybin experience can be challenging.
i feel psilocybin is not the best psychedelic to trip with at first...however there are more difficult paths into the psychedelic experience for sure.
psilocybin yes....it can induce profound self incites plus quantum emotional healing and behavioural changes also......on the down side ... it can produce anxiety psychotic states of like(inner "reality doesn’t match with socially agreed upon "reality")and also particularly with shrooms spontaneous emotional catharsis.
any sort of psychedelic must be used carefully and site and setting is critical to keep you safe both physically and emotionally.
i grew up(partly) on a tropical dairy farm where what we call "gold tops" or tecnically Psilocybe cubensis would grow in abundance.
mostly as a kid.. i would ignore them until i came into contact with some hippies who showed me what to do with it all...i mean life and the psychedelic experience.
and the drawing is very expressive and i like the fact you collaborated on the drawing.....yeah tripping.
well..it changed my life.
i am impressed that you entered into the experience with spiritual preparation. This is good and critical.
psychedelic experience is a sacred activity …never to be taken lightly… the outcome is more often than not very private.
thanks for your courage in sharing.
tha MAP s web site has some good imfo on psilocybin..and i beleive the john hopkins studies where conducted with psilocybin.
cheers ink8290

 

sorry typos

 

wonder what the baeocystin is?..might go find out...."Baeocystin is a psilocybin mushroom alkaloid and analog of psilocybin. It is found as a minor compound in most psilocybin mushrooms together with psilocybin, norbaeocystin, and psilocin."
are got it. always wondered why they would turn blue..probably one of the alcoloids..ay
