Hello everyone,

Fairly new here so I apologize if this is in the wrong place.

Anyways, my friend and I were originally going to try mdma for the first time tomorrow, but unfortunately that fell through. My friend says he could get some shrooms now and I am extremely skeptical of that because it is much more intense than mdma and I know nothing about it. I've only smoked weed. What are everyones thoughts/opinions? Is there any other drug that is kind of like an mdma experience I could try? I might just have to have a sober night out tomorrow :P Any input would be GREAT! Thanks!
 
shrooms are fucking awesome. by far my favorite drug and ive done em all from weed to IV heroin.

eat an eighth. they wiill not disappoint
 
Could you give me a little insight/info on them? As far as how to take them, some of their effects, a good enviroment, the chances of me having a bad reaction to them, etc? If you could that'd be great :D
 
Thanks everyone. If anyone can give me any advice or more insight on it, that'd be great. Also, I take 40mg a day of Accutane for my acne. Only side effects I've noticed were headaches, a sore back, and of course dryness. Would it be alright to do shrooms if I decided to do them?
 
Make sure you're in the right mindset and setting, this is much more important with mushrooms than MDMA
 
We don't do drug recommendations. Plus even if we did, I don't see how we could really recommend another drug to you that is similar to MDMA that you would presumably be able to get by tomorrow night.

There's nothing wrong with having a sober night out! :) But if you're friends are doing mushrooms and you're thinking of trying them, educate yourself about them so you fully know what to expect. You can use the search function, I'm sure there are tons of threads and trip reports. You could always take a lower dose, which I would recommend for your first time. Personally I would not just eat an 1/8 oz when you have never tried a psychedelic before, have no idea how potent these particular mushrooms are, and haven't even done an allergy test or anything.

We can't really know the chances of you having a bad reaction, common side effects include nausea and mental issues like not enjoying the trip, anxiety and paranoia. Studies have shown these adverse mental effects are more likely when someone does a large/potent dose their first time and less likely when someone starts with a low dose and gradually raises it the next time and so on, and that, as 20max10 set, "set and setting" are super important. I did have one friend who was seriously allergic, but as far as I know I don't think that's that common for people who have no other mushroom allergies.

Whether it's safe to take shrooms while taking Accutane is a good question, hopefully someone can answer that who is knowledgable and not just guessing, but my best guess would be that it shouldn't be a big problem.

Btw, it's best to have a title that reflects your question so that people know what your thread is about, more people who have relevant knowledge/experience will read it that way. (EDIT: I see the title has now been edited by a mod, just in case anyone thought I was insane ;))

Normally questions about mushrooms get moved to our Psychedelic Drugs forum, so I'm going to move this there, but I wasn't totally sure whether I should move it there since you were initially asking about MDMA replacements as well....? Anyway, the PD mods can do with it what they will :)

BDD -> PD

It's not my business, but rethink the risk of IBS/IBD that comes with this stuff. Temporary improvement of self image vs. potential feeling like your insides are ripping apart when you need to shit, and having to run toilet every hour for diarrhea and blood if you're one of the unlucky ones....just something to consider.

The depression/suicide/mental health problems risk associated with isotretinoin are the only thing that should make you weary of tripping on it, AFAIK.

Is there any other drug that is kind of like an mdma experience

We don't do recommendations, but enactogens/empathogens are the class of drugs you're looking for. Check out Section IV, Subsection D of the index.
 
If it's your first time doing shrooms I recommend a gradual approach. Start with 1.5 to 2 grams, wait an hour and see how you feel, then upgrade. I know that a lot of people want to have a mind blowing experience but that can come later after you know how the shrooms behave in your system, and how sensitive your body is to them.

The first time I did mushrooms, I did a heavy dose and I was not in the right environment. I wouldn't have done that if I had some guidance about dosing. I also find lower doses to be just as useful as higher doses, just in a different way. Higher doses are for visionary experiences that dissolve the ego and immobilize the body; lower doses are for exploring the outer world through altered consciousness. Just my $0.02.
 
I've had mushrooms many many times, they are usually very kind to beginners, just make sure they are the right mushrooms, don't take more than 3 dried grams first time, be prepared to laugh more than you ever have, make sure that you wont be disturbed by anyone, don't mix them with anything else, (a little bit of weed will be ok), very important to not eat for 6 hours before you take them, if anything instinctively feels wrong then trust your instinct and don't do them, get the set and setting right.

Have a blast, good luck.
 
everyone is different bro, ive done shrooms 4 times and pretty much freaked out everytime lol although there were definitely some euphoric parts of my trips, its still an experience worth having though
 
Set and setting are the most important things in shrooming. Remember also, that "little knowledge is a dangerous thing", so prepare your mind by absorbing as much info on shrooms as possible.
 
Thanks for everyone's input. Never did get any just so everyone knows, but I've done a ton of research and if they're available to me I will definitely will give them a try. And sorry about the title and the thread being in the wrong forum! Won't happen again :P
