Well call me ignorant, but I'm not gonna respect mushrooms if they made me hear voices for months straight. Also with LSD the music is one of the most amazing things in life.
I will call you ignorant because if you got that attitude you shouldnt be eating any acid. Take responsibility for your actions. Mushrooms are not at fault for your psychotic break. Set and setting is up to you ultimately, and thats where you fucked up.
Yeah it was at night, we were watching a horror movie, but I thought I had a strong mind. It all made me feel more vulnerable in general that I could be effected like that even after all I have been through in the psychedelic realm. I have gone all the way on salvia and the death trip was on a whole other level in how much trauma it caused. Not saying salvia was traumatic, but I thought since I did salvia and dmt like that that I had gone as far as there was to go. I am still pretty convinced that like my friend said, there is some weird voodoo energy in that house. But I do know that I honestly like Lsd better anyways. If ANYTHING got me as screwed up as the mushies did, there is no way id do it again no matter where the set and setting was It shouldn't get THAT bad. The first few times I did mushrooms though, I admit was alot of fun. Nothing "divine" like L but nonetheless fun was a good word for it.
Its got nothing to do with how strong your mind is. You merge with your enviroment on psychedelics one way or another. Do not bring negative vibes in your space, you must RESPECT the substance.
Thats fine to prefer LSD to mushrooms but prone is right in that you have to take care of set and setting, regardless of what psychedelic it is or your prior experience with substances you perceive to be more intense. I knew a guy who went to the hospital due to a panic attack on MDMA, bad/unpleasant trips or reactions are possible on any psychedelic regardless of how strong you believe your mind to be and prior experiences.
Don't get it twisted, it's all love from me. But I'm pretty sure you're a drug addict. Yes, you can be a drug addict with psyches, they're not the fucking holy grail.
man fresh . . . i think you need to hit the "what is psychedelics 101" books, truly. it's painful to read your posts, and reveals why you reacted the way you reacted.
I'm surprised FreshDacre is still alive to be honest, or at least, still retains the amount of freedom necessary to post on the internet.
I came into the thread thinking "of course, you can work past it". But no. Fuck no you should not. You've tripped a lot, you're not going to get a whole lot of new stuff from it, but you could lose everything. Voices are not acceptable.... And maybe if you hear things and know you're just hearing things (I've done this, and I'm ashamed and a bit scared to say, it took me a few seconds to convince myself it was in my head) that's one thing, but no, when you're walking around town talking to nothing to impress the voices in your head, there are problems. Honestly I didn't read all of what you wrote, but I can tell you for sure, FUCK no, you seem to have run out of psychedelic luck, at least for a GOOD long break.
I fucking did. I had wonderful mushroom trips. I still will never forget it. I went by myself to fall creek, an astonishing creek that you can follow for miles in the middle of the redwood forest. The sun was beaming in between the trees and it felt like some mystical tropical rainforest. Some of the most beautiful colors I had ever seen everything working out in my groove around me. Not gonna lie felt pretty godly. I have seen much more amazing of colors on LSD though. I also went driving right after. That was also one of my best experiences. Felt like a crazy video game, but the road was moving left and right so it was hard as shit to predict the road. LSD I have full concentration and can drive great. Another time, my older tripper friend got these tiny but really potent mushies, it was nighttime so we just chilled in his room. He had stuff all over the place like posters, faces, art, so I remember things actually transforming on this trip. Not in too overwhelming of a way, just that things were moving and swirling and turning into animals and clouds. It was chill even though it was a deep trip, it came up with warning.
Yeah, its just weird how quickly I snapped. I had always thought nothing like this would ever happen to me, then one month, I just snap. And I feel like I did before I even tried mushies, which is a good sign. I guess its hard to tell how something is going to effect you sometimes, this whole thing just makes muxhrooms seem more dangerous to me. But mabey you are right about the long break thing. After all it's still the same year lol. Mabey since I might get a good hook of some bomb L I could just save it for a year.
Lol I used to take like twentieths of a hit of L like 3-4 times a week when I went to work. Those days were Fn adventures!!
I highly doubt you would take 5% of a hit and feel it, lol. even the dankest shit on earth. why do you lose respect for mushrooms after they thoroughly destroy your sanity? shouldn't that make you want to respect them more? since they reveal their true power and potential to you? they can destroy your mind man, if your mind is not ready for them. same with acid. why do you only respect them when they are fun? that's not respect, that's "liking"
Ok good point I don't like them though. Makes me see them from a much different light thats for sure.
Psychedelics are not physically dangerous, you can't od, but that doesn't mean they can't hurt you.... I mean, being rather the psychonaut myself, if it's in your head I'm of the opinion that it can be fixed. But there's no reason to break it in the first place. It's good that you feel yourself again. You should feel lucky, and be much more careful and respectful with your use of psychedelics. Also, your description of driving while tripping is rather disturbing... Good way to become a grease spot.
C'MON, dude! what the fuck?! not smart. you don't need me to tell you that either, so i dunno why i'm even bothering to post. seems like you're just telling us that to get attention? because you know damn well most of us in here aren't gonna condone that type of behavior. but i guess i did some stupid shit when i was 19 too. i'll admit that i've driven on acid and mushrooms (separately). but it's not a good idea. especially when "the road was moving left and right so it was hard as shit to predict the road." at least when i did it, it was on low doses, near the end of the trip, or it was an emergency. if my foot would reach all the way to california, i'd kick you in the ass, boy! straighten up. and gimme all your acid.
Haha no way. I could give a shit about attention. I posted it because it is one of my best experiences on the drug. Driving and snowboarding are like the best things to do on psyches. It is ok as long as you don't dose too high and have done the drug before so you know how it effects you. So many beautiful colors driving definately one of the best things on L.
