Drinking the day before tripping

Would it be bad to drink alcohol the night before shrooming? Could it affect my trip in any way? There's a halloween party I want to drink at on Friday, and we are planning on shrooming on Saturday, late afternoon (5-6 ish)... I wouldn't want to drink much either, prob like 2-3 shots.
 
Just make sure you know your alchohol tolerance-

I never drink so I once got really sick from drinking and dosed on LSD the next morning. I was hungover and dehydrated so the first part of the trip was a bit of a haze. Afterwards I took some tylenol (and oxycodone) and took a shower... the rest was a blast.

that doesn't sound like what's going to happen to you- just make sure you're rested so you can run around outside on mushrooms like you're supposed to!!!!
 
Ime anything more than 1 shot the night before a trip is excessive and may impact negatively on your experience.
 
i think a little alcohol will be fine. just keep it "tipsy" and not "wrecked". depending on your alcohol tolerance that may be 1-2 beers, maybe a bit more.

but after a well rested night with plenty of hydration you should be fine.
 
maybe this is just the case when you get older, but Now a days, I can drink 4 or 5 drinks to have a good night drinking (which i rarely do, i dont really care too much for alcohol) and not have any negative effects the next day.... I dont have problems with combining alcohol and tripping now that I am older, but I remember when I was younger it would effect things much more to the point where I didnt think it was smart to do....

I think I just realised that the difference is actually in what is satisfying to me now, when I was younger (like highschool aged) Drugs were about doing things in excess, as much as we could, as quick as we could.... getting older its gotten more about just being comfortable and enjoyable rather than FULLY FUCKING SATISFIED OF EVERY CRAVING....

Priorities, thank god they change .
 
Having been a moderately heavy drinker most of my life, I have usually been quite drunk while tripping and the night before (and the night before that...), it's never caused me any problems. Such caution as expressed by others is certainly erring on the right side but seems a tad excessive.

I am Scottish though.
 
i wouldn't want to start out a trip hungover, dehydrated, or otherwise feeling like crap. However if you're not planning on dosing in the morning and don't overdo it the night before i doubt it would have much of an impact. Though if you're a bit fuzzy headed still when you trip I could see it detracting from the experience a bit.
 
Only you can really judge the way your body may respond. If you're the kind of person who can drink & feel fine the next morning, then I'd say you'd be alright shrooming. If you're usually wrecked the whole day after drinking, then either don't drink or don't shroom.
