I'm going to be doing mushrooms for my first time with one of my friends (he's done them several times before). I'm a little bit nervous about having a bad trip but I almost had an anxiety attack on mdma before so I feel like I'm ready to deal with it/control it if it happens.

I'm more worried about the taste!! As soon as I saw the mushrooms and pictured that going in my mouth I felt sick lol!
What's the best way to take them so that they'll still have the best effect?

Also, I'm worried that they might upset my stomach/that I might throw up. Is that likely to happen? I read some people might feel sick at first but it goes away. I know I'll have a terrible time if I feel sick through the whole trip so is there any way to avoid that or make it better if it does happen?

And one last thing! Is 3 grams a good amount for a first time? And is there a difference between eating the stems and caps? (I mostly have stems)

Thanks a lot! xox
 
Sorry to say this, but if you had trouble with MDMA, well mushies are much less euphoric, so watch out.

You could crush them into powder and drink it in tea or something, but it's easier to just chew them up and swallow. There's a good chance you'll get nausea, cramps, or both. If you do get nausea, the best thing to do is just throw up. You'll feel much better and it won't affect the potency of the trip. Do not try to "tough it out" with nausea. That's a guaranteed bad trip right there.

3 grams is a monster trip for a first timer. I would go more like 2-2.5, but that's me. Just be prepared for the cognitive effects. You will feel very out of sorts.

And there's no real difference between stems and caps.

Hope that was helpful. Good luck!
 
make a tea, i always throw up on shrooms though.

its surprising to hear you had an anxiety attack on mdma, very strange if it was indeed actually mdma and not a methbomb.

my advice: let go
 
I'm not even sure if it was pure mdma or not, I felt it in just over 20 minutes which is unusual. My friends were fine though... Other than that and one time when I took too much I was fine with mdma.
When you chew the mushrooms do you have to chew them really long?
If you took like gravol or some anti-nausea meds would that help?
 
I just slapped them in a peanut butter sammich. Covers the taste and I like peanut butter :)

I haven't done them in a decade or more, but it's one of my favorite's. My trips always included color spectrum shifting. I found it very smooth.

I never got sick.
 
you don't have the chew them a lot.. 3 grams is enough that you will feel some stomach upset.. a little weed helps me.. i have never actually puked from the feeling, but it can be strong nausea for the first like 30 mins of coming up..
 
I'm dreading the nausea DX
I was told you gotta chew it up reallly good so its like a black mush lol
 
Grind it up in a buster like you would weed, and put in in almost anything and eat it / drink it
3 grams will be fine as long as you have a POSITIVE ATTITUDE towards the trip. If you are expecting a bad trip don't even take them and save yourself a head fuck.

Do you have a strong stomach? For me mushrooms feel like stomach pain from hunger / eating too fast when I take 4.5grams+. Luckily the nausea is very easy to control (for me) and it goes away after the come up.

Safe tripping =D <3
 
Fast for at least 2-3 hours before you eat the mushrooms.

This will make you avoid sickness and you shouldn't get any sickness anyway.

IME opiates give you way more nausesa than shrooms do.

Just eat them plain and don't make a tea or put them into food.

3g may be a lot but the first time I took mushrooms I ate 2g of mushrooms and I got ego death/ego fragmentation and a friend and I had telepathy and it was a very intense experience.

Some meditation before you eat the mushrooms can help calm you.

I did get some depersonalization when the mushrooms first kicked in like I thought I was dreaming that my friend and I ate mushrooms but then I just went with it and realized we were tripping and that's what you have to do with any psychedelic.

Buy a big pack of Reeses and put the shrooms on top of them. Nothing goes together like reeses and mushrooms! In all seriousness though it actually does make them much more bearable. Also, wash them down with OJ.

You should dose maybe smaller than 3 grams for your first time, as the general rule of drugs is usually that it's better to take too little than too much. Especially true for a first time.

And remember to let go, don't try to fight any feelings you might have. There are no bad trips. A trip is just an amplification of all your regular feelings and thoughts. Life isn't always fun - tripping is an amplification of life - therefore, tripping is not always fun. That's the way it goes.

Be safe and enjoy yourself. Let us know how it goes.

yeah, i think im just odd in that respect, opiates calm my stomach like nothing else, i was addicted to heroin/oxys for many years and not once did they make me puke (when i couldnt get them that was another story though) but they made some of my friends vomit like crazy.

all natural psychedelics make me throw up (shrooms, mescaline, ayahuasca) nearly every time, my body just cant handle the initial body load i guess...
 
Do you have such instant soups that you throw into a mug, cover with boiling water and drink?
If so (how are they called?) put your shrooms there. It tastes not-so-bad.
Have music you relax to. It's great if you feel unfine.
Don't go on very long, straight road (or rails). Comming back you may fall into loop, as I did. Go into forest. Take some ciggs. Have great time :)
 
To avoid the taste, I ground up my mushrooms and put them into capsules. Works perfectly for me, plus I don't have to taste that nasty shit. :)
 
i like the taste.... :) reminds me of the good feelings i know are soon to follow... the taste is not what gets you feeling ill - it is the digestion afterward..
 
make sure you're in a safe, familiar place & with someone you can trust and chill out with, go into it with a positive outlook and you'll have an awesome time

materially, ambient music / a movie?
try watching human traffic, it's amazing
 
shrooms..try to chop them up as fien as you can, powdery type consistancy is best, to get them down quick. I almost puked eating the fucking things, when i just omnom'd a stem. Nausea isnt too bad for me, after you get em down.
 
Some people don't mind the taste much; others find it disgusting. They taste very earthy, but not bitter or anything, so if you don't psych yourself out about it, eating them isn't too bad.

As long as they end up in your stomach, it doesn't really matter how you eat them. You can just chew whole dried caps/stems like you would any other food, you can chew it longer, you can grind 'em up and mix into something... Grinding or chewing more thoroughly might make the onset quicker, but you don't need to.

One popular trick is to melt some chocolate , mix in powdered shrooms and then let it harden. My roommate used to buy bags of Hershey's Kisses or chocolate chips, melt them, mix in finely ground shrooms and then form chocolates with a couple grams apiece in a plastic ice tray. That covers the taste up pretty well, IMO.
 
I've never had any nausea from mushies or noticed any bad taste from them, so don't psych yourself out expecting it. And be conservative with how much you take your first time. They have a way of sneaking up on you.
