Hey guys,
On Monday, I consumed some psilocybin mushrooms for the first time in over 2 years, yet my experience with them was very very mild compared to the previous experiences (granted I only took about a gram of dried shrooms this time around). I definitely felt the effects though and was met with some euphoria and the nice appreciation of nature during the experience, but completely without any visual or auditorial hallucinations. I take Mirtazapine as an antidepressant and it's a 5ht2a/5ht2c receptor antagonist, therefore it might be responsible for the lessened effects of the trip. What I would like to know, is if psilocybin use from 2 days ago could cause cross tolerance for ayahuasca/dmt. The last time I took the mirtazapine was 2 nights ago but since it has a long half life I suspect it's still in my system.
I drank some ayahuasca for the first time ever today and got extremely mild if any effects. They were virtually non-existent, but I had a stomachache and slightly purged 3 hours after ingestion (yet it was clear, nowhere close to the dark red color of the ayahuasca). I researched how to make the drink and believe it was made correctly but would like some further guidance. I brew 114g of mimosa hostilis powder, and 112g of yellow banisteriopsis caapi powder in 2 separate pots for over 12 hours in 64oz water + 32oz lemon juice each. The mimosa turned a really nice deep red and was put in the fridge overnight (the yellow caapi was made the following day and mixed immediately). I combined the liquids/first wash of both together and put it in the fridge. The second wash was made in the same manner but included vinegar instead of lemon juice..the second wash was put in the fridge in separate containers than the first.
I drank 4oz of the first wash (there were 44oz of the first wash total, and 48 oz of the second wash), and didn't do anything with the second wash yet. Am I supposed to combine the washes together and brew them as well before consuming? I just combined both washes in a large pot and am brewing them right now. I was thinking about reducing the total mixture (roughly 92oz) down to about half, would 4oz of the final mixture suffice or did I do something wrong?..I was planning on sharing the ayahuasca with a couple friends on Friday and I don't want to disappoint them, I was also considering taking the ayahuasca again sometime next week to gauge the effects, in case tryptamine cross tolerance or my medication may interfere..thank you for any advice
