Mushrooms, tried 3x and I don't like it

You ate an 8th and you had mild hallucinations? When I ate an 8th I was tripping major balls.

You said you ate a half 8th and had a good time but weren't tripping. I think you were. Why did you double your dose the next times? It may have been better to take baby steps and work your way up.

You are eating your drugs then trying to go to sleep and getting pissed when the drugs are not letting you sleep.

Take your drugs at a different time when you don't have to sleep or go to school or think about anything for that matter. This is a case of set and setting.

What are you trying to get out of tripping? Are you doing this alone? If these are your only trips your experiences sound kinda normal. I think there is a break in period wen people first start tripping. As you start to get the feel for it you can navigate the experience a bit better.
 
Some good recommendations have already been made here. I would only add that I would not recommend tripping again unless you are prepared for the ride, even if it develops into a "bad trip." If you have expectations for your trips and your going to struggle against any experience that significantly deviates from your expectations, don't bother.
 
I guess the thing is, you really should figure out what you want out of the experience, in case you're looking for some fun, I don't think shrooms are a good call, mostly because a lot of people find the nausea exhausting and it contributes to the whole feeling of being dark.

Shrooms are my favorite by far, though I usually stick to 2g dosages. Usually when I take more than that things tend to go into weird directions... Still interesting, but not something you want to do unprepared.

I found 2c-b much more easier to bear (minus the insufflation), so if you're looking for a fun evening, I'd recommend checking out low doses (15mg).

Did Acid only once (apparently it was a 150ug blotter) and I'm surprised how people keep claiming that they find LSD more clear than mushrooms, whenever I do mushrooms, I can hold consistent thoughts in my head for the evening. The night I did LSD I would start explaining something, and stop mid-sentence completely forgetting what I was trying to say. My friend and I discussed how it felt like your brain melt, and we were trying to capture every thought before it slipped through our fingers. It felt pretty messy... on the other hand, if you can't hold onto a thought, it's probably much harder to fall into a difficult trip. Not to mention my lymph nodes have swollen up and made it difficult to sleep (Anyone else had that happen, never read anything about it...)
 
Kindly cut out the clever rhetoric, someone is trying to host a thread here. More banter will be edited if need be.

Actually yes the story about the mushrooms sounds really familiar. My first trip was fairytale fun, my second one was the most intense experience of my life. The trip was so strong that I rather wanted to die than endure more of it. Then I let go and was utterly ego-less lying flat on my bad for hours.
After that my pants were so shat that I didn't trip for 6 months. Then curiosity got the best of me and I continued tripping, mushrooms often make me extremely confused and I find them much more intense than LSD. Many trips were horrible and each of those times I was so thankful when the end was in sight and had an amazing afterglow. Beyond some point I started to learn enough from them and gain enough insight to be able to navigate psychedelic mind space much better. Then it got better and better.
 
Did you weigh the eight yourself to be sure it was reallly 3.5g and not 5 or 6? That would be ALOT.

Did you line up some preselected music and have it laid out ready to go, and listen to music during the exoerience? Sitting in the dark silence on 3.5g shrooms is enough to make anyone feel "dead" due to just the BLANKNESS becoming amplified in intensity... it seeps into you and then YOU start feeling pitch black and silent on the inside... i.e., dead.

I always found 3g to be ideal... stong enough to "really" trip, but not so much as to be overwhelming, in general. MOST trips. But that can still be VERY intense. I will admit that even on only 3g, at home alone (entire house not just bed), candles & crystals aglow, the most uplifiting and spiritual favorite music on... good frame of mind with no pressing obligations or worries... in other words the ideal set and setting... One time I *STILL* at some point started feeling that there was something wrong with my brain... thoughts refused to form, started feeling as if I was totally forgetting language itself, and thus ended up in the "Oh no, I must have done POISON mushrooms by mistake and now I AM DYING... OH NO!!!" panic/anxiety thought loop, damnit!

Seems like something that is part of the mix of chems in shrooms that almost everyone is bound to get this from time to time. Perhaps the Fungi Faeries smell us tripping and fly into our heads and vex the silly monkey creatures for their own ammusment, haha, I dont really think that. Or perhaps it is the design of ??? that we are given these Death Trips occasionally so that we might appreciate our lives a little more once we realize we are not in fact dying... you gotta admit, didn't that fell kinda sweet?

Interestingly, I have found on 3 occasions that doing 3g of Syrian Rue followed 45min later ny ***ONLY*** 1.5g of dried shrooms led to not MORE anxiety which I was expecting, but LESS... a smoother more centered trip. It felt every bit as if there was some OTHER invisible spirit guide / chapperone in the room with me, calming me and soothing me and connecting my mind more reliably with some sort of "Cosmic" or "Spiritual" frequencies. I can see why the ancients considered Syrian Rue to be such a special ally. 1g shrooms seemed not enough with the Rue, but 2g was too much, 1.5g seemed the Golilocks dose.
 
if you want to really enjoy a psychedelic drop some lucy haha. i enjoy shrooms most of the time but any given moment i can trip myself out. once AFTER my peak on 2.5gs i found myself looking in the mirror convinced that i was the most ugly person ever. shrooms can be real deep especially if your by yourself, maybe lower the dose and definitely change the setting if your gonna try them again. but before you do that maybe try some acid, so you know what its like to enjoy a psychedelic.
 
The first two times i measured. The third one I grew and eyed to be be about an eighth. I also dosed it up with some cranberry juice :)
 
the 1st time i had mushrooms i had 2.2 of some cubes n had a blast, louds of laughing, no attention span, couldnt put words together jus gibberish, great visuals, still left me quick n i was pissed. 2nd time i had em had 3gs of golden teachers they blowed, no lauging no visuals but some terrible tremors, that happend 2 more times but i recently picked some up n got off nicely off 2.5 of some penis envys. there really inconsistent
 
set and setting man, nobody is gonna have fun with a head full of shrooms when you got school in the morning

LOL, so true! =D Where's common sense these days?


But seriously, the instant I lie down in bed, psychedelic trips just fall off the rails. It's just not a good idea. You need to be sitting upright, at least.
 
My favorite part of this thread was the brief name-insult-interlude.

Set and setting; sounds like the times it went well were the times the dosage suited your environment. Also, try 2 - 2.5 grams, it sounds like 1.5 was good for you, step it up slowly, the dosage curve for mushrooms isn't linear. YMMV and all that.

True! Whenever I sat up and turned on a light I basically stopped tripping... Just had some nice visuals and hues to colors.
 
So, whippa craka, are you black after all? lol. This is all in good taste, to settle a joke earlier on in the thread. :D
