Mushrooms (13g dry) - Experienced - Visions of Self Transformation and Death

At 1/4 I start loosing my sense of body. At 1/2 oz I start loosing my mind. Its as if the mushrooms are thinking through me and I'm just along for the ride. After you are forced to understand your place I can see why you cried. good thing you were willing to accept it. :D
 
13 grams dry? holy shit...i literally think that if i did that much then id go crazy. the sense of ego loss on even 4 grams is just too intense for me. glad to see you came back ok.
 
Wonderful report man, very interesting to me. I would also appreciate you posting any more details of the trip that you remember.
 
I ate 2 grams last haloween and snapped... (it was the last time I ever did anything psychedelic)

I dont mind the mushroom high i really love(d) it but the outer body experiences really freak me out and takes anxiety to a new level.
 
Hmmm...

You know, in all the cultures where shamanism is practiced the shaman apprentice is made to undergo a psychedelic ritual of some sort (from fasting to cubensis injestion) that leads him to a death sequence, and afterwords he is rebuilt by a higher power and is then a certified "astral traveler"

It sounds like you may not have known what to look for, or maybe rejected some of the gifts and 'fell into hell' (maybe you just blacked out for the good part though)

If you notice shitty changes in your real life- like this trip really traumatized the fuck out of you, you could go to a psychiatrist or whatever, but I think another huge dose trip would let you choose again.
 
Sure and out-of-body experience is difficult. But the difficult trips are the most rewarding. It's a shame you let a difficult experience steer you away from all psychedelics. If you can learn to let go, it will become to beautiful that words cannot possibly describe it. Difficult? Yes. Worth it? Absolutely.
 
this is probably one of the best trip reports Ive come across. Awesome, Ive experienced almost the same. Im glad you made it through. Latley any trip ive done. Ive come out crying like a baby. They have become way more spiritual to me than anything
 
Taking a large ammount of mushrooms was the best experience i ever had combined with mdma :) It was around 100g fresh homegrown weight with some being dried (how much is that dry?) It wasn't scary in the slightest literally everything morphed into something else!

Lovely report, thanks a lot for sharing :)
 
I'd be certainly interested in a ego-death or near ego death experience..Not yet though, would like 1-2 more strong experiences with psychedelics in a completely natural environment.
It's said that you experience just pure,full consciousness, you feel like you can't breath or not feel your body at all, you are dying and then you are reborn.
 
I would say such a strong experience is far from 'having fun' in the mainstream way. It's about soul searching and directly experiencing the unconscious forces of your mind.

I would say psychedelics are about Heaven&Hell, narcotics are about "heaven".
 
Psychedelics

Ive always found both the reality altering hallucinations as well as the reality replacing ones, absolutely worth it every time. In fact i tend to think mushrooms are the best trips i ever had, of a fairly long list of other experiences mushrooms rank at the top.

While the morphing altered colors etc can be very fun, its the higher level doses of most of the psychedelics that are worth the experience and any fear they cause. I think its the higher level trips that you can learn more from, some of the best trips i ever had were high dose ketamine and salvia trips, replacing reality and being shot to the end of the universe, playing with the edge of reality like a piece of fabric.

I havent had the chance to try this with psilos yet but i have a feeling i will soon :) If you can handle the anxiety they may cause, and you can handle the trip itself, which is not everyone for sure, then higher level doses of the "real" psychedelics can be far more rewarding than colors moving around etc.

The problem is not everyone can tell if they can handle it beforehand, numerous people (on BL) have contacted me after serious problems resulting from a trip, in some cases long term psychotic symptoms occured weeks afterward.

Notwithstanding the complications it can still be rewarding for a lot of people, perhaps its possible to tell how well you can handle a high dose trip by what happens on lower doses, perhaps not.

I would be interested to know how many people have felt a presence during a trip like this, either seen or unseen. I could definitely feel something there with me with both ketamine and salvia, both times it didnt seem angry just seemed...well.... sort of like a superior presence, toying with me sort of like hazing in college haha :)

I think since we have threads about all of the psychedelics and there effects, perhaps we need a real comprehensive thread about what people experience with these kinds of trips, what it could mean, what the common themes are, and such.
 
I don't remember too much after this. I'm not sure exactly when I fell asleep, but I do remember someone coming in the room pretty far into my trip, and trying to communicate with me. The room was almost unrecognizable due to the intense OEV's and warping of everything. I was sure my head was playing tricks on me, because I thought it was someone coming to check on me, but I couldn't tell who it was. In fact, they didn't really look human, and when they spoke, it wasn't english. Whoever I was seeing started looking more and more like a troll, and I remember trying to tell them to leave, because they were scaring me. Finally I just put a pillow over my head, and when I took it off they were gone.

that sounds sort of like 'logos': http://www.maps.org/news-letters/v07n1/07112bea.html
 
Wouldn't mind topping this, although part of me says no, no, no, no. A true adventure BUMP!

The thing I worry about is loosing yourself, as long as people are their to make sure nothing happens its fine but in those circumstances I prefer to be alone but then its probably hard not to be alone in a state like that. Shrooms engulf the psyche complete and utterly, i fear horrific visions which cropped up after only doing 50g fresh by myself, blood, guts and nastiness appear from nowhere that alone puts me off. Whether its a bad or good trip does not make the blind bit of difference in this dose range.
