how have shrooms changed you?

I think recently mushrooms helped me see the whole universe in a different perspective- kind of like everything is just interactions with eachother. It doesnt matter what something looks like- it is there and it changes through time and space which could be very different than how we experience(or see) it. Organisms interact with other organisms and cycles intermingle to create new things and occurances that will never end. did that make any sence? if you really want to know what I think just ask me and I'll try to re-explain it.

 

shrooms? shrooms havent changed me.

 

I understand what you're saying. It's the difference between noumena (the thing in itself) and phenomena (world of appearance). Read the metaphysician Immanuel Kant if you're interested. He thought the noumena was unknowable, so basically irrelevant. Of course, he wasn't "experienced".

 

thanks weatherman, i am most definently interested.

 

shrooms made me happy....then i came down

 

mushrooms have opened my mind to what is important in life, and what really makes no difference whatsoever, i could go on for a while, but theres no point, once u take them you'll know what we all mean hopefully, i hope your mind opens up as much as mine has since eating them

 

Not very much ... they just made me appreciate the little things in life more than I used to.

 

An experienced tripper can trip in any set or setting, and have a good trip.

 

I don't know about that. I consider myself an experienced tripper, but I still get "bad" trips, which I define as a trip where you spend most of your time dwelling on the negative. Now I can prevent myself from turning into a slobbering and incoherent mess in any set or setting on reasonable doses of psychedelics, but I think "bad" trips are inevitable.

Maybe it has to do with personality though. I dislike this about myself, but I am generally speaking and I think I've always been pretty pessimistic. I've got a bleak world perspective. I think psychedelics do help work that out but I've still got a long way to go.

 

After hundreds of trips, I've never had a bad one.

 

Follow your heart and not your mind. Grab the bull of life by the horns and just ride that motherfuker and remember to laugh

 

Shrooms played a major role in opening my eyes to see & comprehend things differently than I was accustomed to. I've been drawing and painting since I can remember back... usually cartoons, portraits and landscapes. Once I experienced shrooms my art changed totally. It's more psychedelic art and pop art now. I have no desire to draw anything else but this type art now. I can see things and make out shapes and faces when looking at simple things like clouds, the ceiling, wallpaper, bricks, trees, etc., etc. Shrooms opened the door.

 

Tripping made me realize some of my insecurities that I refused to acknowledge, but it also made me realize that reality is relative.

 

I suppose i am not an "experienced tripper", because every once in a while i do get a bad trip. Nothing like anxiety or paranoia, just negative feelings, and anticipation for the trip to be over.

 

Even the most experienced trippers can have bad ones, but if you have them more often than not, it's probably not the best idea for you to trip. Sometimes it can unearth emotional problems and stuff, but if you aren't tripping that often, you should be ok... No worries, just if you do trip make sure you're in a really safe setting around really close friends. That's the only way I'll trip. I can't do it by myself and I can't do it with people I don't lnow b/c it's too scary.

 

i lived in the mountains of purto rico for a few years ......cubensis- mexicanis- and the blue stained ones ...cyanesences ? .... did a fucking bunch of em ......well it helps u accept life n death ....as well as see the very more that there is than would appear to be ......

 

The way i see it, before shrooms entered my life i thought everything about the world was 'ordinary', then the mushroom made me stand back from my life and realise that actually it's utterly improbable and insane. It's like being unconscious in a dream, then you have the psychedelic experience and it makes you realise that you are dreamng(that your life is actually SOME KIND of dream), from then on you have a completely new set of priorities in life
