Low doses of mushrooms

[DrunkardsDream]

I noticed that there is a thread about low doses of LSD, is there one about low doses of shrooms?

I've had mindblowing high dose mushroom trips but I haven't done that in years. One where there was some ego fragmentation and ESP type stuff that my friend who also took them experienced with me.

Nowadays I would like to experience low doses of mushrooms that show the low dose side of mushrooms, what are they like?

We've got most of the common topics and lots of uncommon ones in the PD Index. The subthreads are in the first post of some "Big & Dandy" threads.

We've also got the [Mushroom subthread]: Dosage and Methods of Administration.

They're generally milder and could be predicted. Some might say they are more prone to anxiety and others might they they are less. It's all subjective but a lower dose as a rule, gives a less intense experience, obviously.

I dislike low doses of mushrooms, it makes me feel anxious but I need to run or something.

Low dose mushrooms are good - just the thing for a relaxed social gathering

I love low doses of mushrooms.
I get creative without being too altered.
Especially if I do a tiny dose - I'm talking less than half a gram - with friends who are also on mushrooms.

Less is more with mushrooms. I dig around 1.5-2.0 grams. More than that screws me to the wall on a social level, leaving me curled up under the blankets in the fetal position.

1-2 grams has given me very optimistic, stimulating afternoons, a sense of enhanced chi circulation and cognition. meditation, yoga or qi gong, artistic expression, aesthetic appreciation - all come easier. Someone mentioned casual socializing and that would be cool too. Higher doses tend to put me into a vision quest or "ego death" experience that I find best to play out in private - lower doses leave more of your everyday functions and inclincations in tact while loosening me enormously.

Here in texas they grow out of cow shit lol. ABout 5-8 nice size caps is really nice. I think that is a low dose? Usually just laughing my ass off, seeing small visuals, and crazy visuals when eyes are closed.

low doses are beautiful aesthetic and mood enhancers
they also very much inspire creativity

low dose whilst gardening. I've made it a practice for a few years now to have a few shrooms on hand to tend to my garden(s). I've found the effect is quite nice in listening to the plants and noticing some of the minutae there. However; I generally take a nice handful(high dose) and wander the planned space(s) when the first hint of spring and planting season arrives prior to putting anything in the ground. (note: these aren't entheogen gardens, edibles/herbs/flowers). The flower garden is especially nice on a moderate dose when the various butterflies/hummingbirds/dragonflies arrive.

Either I'm highly sensitive or I had really good shrooms since when I've had 2g I tripped very hard and it was spiritual, introspective (at the time), there was some ego fragmentation, and my friend and I had some telepathy/ESP type stuff happen since we both were tripping. A ++++ on the Shulgin scale.

I ate 1.5g or maybe a tiny bit more of the same batch and I tripped moderately but I didn't have any ego death and colours were brighter/flowing and I still saw lots of visuals.

In both cases I'm glad I was with friends who were also tripping and that we were in a relaxed place and not at a social gathering or someplace where I'd have to pretend to be sober.

A friend of mine ate a very low dose of shrooms and he did get some anxiety but from what he told me he didn't get any visuals and he found it hard to just let go and relax. He has really bad anxiety so he's probably not going to take any again.

Not if you're looking for a full-on psychedelic journey = P

I think maybe I overshot mushrooms for a social setting. Usually I need more to trip but one time I ate roughly 1.5 grams and it was too much for a social setting but still too little for a trip.

I will try less next time...and of course MORE if I want to trip and not be bored.

How odd though....
