1st REAL Mushroom Experiance

I have tried mushrooms 1 or 2 times prior to this experiance, but always either pathetically weak mushrooms or low dose (1g?). So after a hard night of raving my girlfriend and I woke up around 12 in the afternoon and drank some tea to give me an extra boost of energy (we had gone to sleep around 4:00 am coming off of ecstasy). We waited for my friend to come, and finally, by 1:00 he was there with my other friend. One of my friends who came had an 8th of mushrooms for himself, the other one was just hanging out with us (which later we realised was a mistake), my girlfriend had a little under an 8th and I had a little over an 8th. We took them in the living room and put on one cd I made as the "Mushroom Mix" which had lots of trippy songs and stuff.

After about 45 minutes I began to just feel wierd. My body movements were much more apparent as I felt a lot heavier, but at the same time I felt a lot higher (in the head). Eventually the trip began, staring at the walls, they were swirling everywhere in utter beauty, but I noticed my girlfriend wasn't saying anything at all, so I asked her if she was okay and she smiled and said she was, it was just odd because she was silent, curled up in a ball (she's never done a hallucinagen prior). Eventually everything my friend and I did resulted in hilarious fits of laughter. There was one point where we were melting so badly that we couldn't even walk so all three of us are crawling on the floor to get to each other. All of a sudden a song called "Several Small Species of Small Furry Animals Gathered Together in a Cave and Grooving with a Pict" by Pink Floyd came on and this song sounds like tons of animals are just going crazy, so I started seeing monkeys all over the walls which was real neat.

I kept checking on my girlfriend but she was just acting oddly, at one point when I was laying down she sat down on top of me, and I didnt mind this per say... but it was agrivating cos it was literally pinning me to the floor. At one point, ever 5 minutes or so she'd kinda have a little freak out and ask what time it was and she was always complaining about the lack of clocks in the house, eventually she told me she was worried cos she didn't know when to take her birth control. So I calmed her down and assured her I would remember, that made her a little happier. The next bothering issue to both her me, and my friend, was that my other friend (the sober one) was getting a bit antsy watching us all tripping out so he went to go get egg rolls. So when he came back he wouldn't leave us alone about the damn eggrolls (now anyone tripping know egg rolls are the last thing on your mind). So that was kinda getting on my nerves.

To make matters worse, he turned on the TV, so I'm sitting in the living room, the TV is in the room right next to this one (about 5 feet away) and I'm listening to like a hockey game or something while Pink Floyd is blasting and my girlfriend is asking what time it is. So this is where the downward spiral begins. Finally I get up and go I have to leave, cos honestly, I couldn't take it any longer, so I went outside with my friend and we watched the clouds mutate and swirl around the sky which to this day is probably the most amazing thing ive ever seen.

So it was getting real cold cos I mean it was like 20 degrees outside, so I went in a bedroom and and took my girlfriend with me and locked the door. I put on my mushroom mix and put my head on the speaker, I was happy again. Finally I had time to talk to my girlfriend cos thus far she hasn't said a word more than "what time is it?" So I told her it was time to take her birth control and she was real happy after that, giggling with me and asking me real wierd questions, like - "Does my mouth taste wierd?" And, "Am I you?" What had happened to her is she experianced an Ego Death - where her body wasn't there just her soul and she wanted to figure out who's body she actually belonged in.

After a while of calming down (still tripping hard), I took out a pound bag of skittles. It was excelent the colors... while being able to touch them and sort them and make patters was the best thing ive done in a long time. I highly suggest playing with skittles. So we sorted about 50 orange ones in a pile (which glowed flurecent orange by the way), and we picked them up and brought them to my other tripping friend in the other room (who was actually having a real bad trip just I didn't realise it) and we threw all the orange skittles at him. Now concidering he didn't even know we had skittles... this was kind of a shock. We laughed about it for a few days later. Basically my girlfriend and I went back into the room and stayed there and just had a lot of fun.

The comedown was just as fun if not more fun. All my friend had left to go somewhere (coming back eventually), so it was my girlfriend and me in this dark house, with christmas lights everywhere (inside the house). Everything was the same... yet everything was just SO different. Everything was just wierd, but with no explination as to why. It made the rest of the time fun and interesting.

The following day I felt excelent, even tho I did 2 pills of E friday, and over an 8th of mushrooms saturday, Sunday I felt fine, no nausia, no nothing. Overall it was a well worthwhile experiance which I hope to endulge in again, soon.

Thanks for your time if you read this whole report. And as always

I'm glad that your trip seemed to get progressively better, some people aren't able to direct their trip towards the positive side of things like you did.

Nice report :)
 
yes she did, now i dont know what factors were involved... we ate about 4 hours prior (kraft) but she didn't eat a lot at all, and she weighs about 125 lbs. Also it was her first time ever doing them. Overall she had a good experiance though and did experiance ego death, which ironically enough is what I was aiming for, but it happened to her. Lucky girl. haha
 
ego death only really occurs on 5 grams or more and its not fun at all...are you sure she really reached a level five experience with less than an 8th with food in her stomach?
 
She was sitting on the bed asking me who she was... if she was the cat, me, and our friends. She was really confused at first because she had no clue who she was. There was no first person, ther was no 3rd person. She felt as if she was a non-entity, a lost soul, so to speak. If this isn't ego death I don't know what is. But regardless, it happened, you can't argue it, you might as well accept it. They are called MAGIC mushrooms - anything can happen! :)

mushrooms vary quite a bit and potency, 3 grams of one kind could be more powerful than 6 grams of another batch. secondly, setting and individual reaction can factor into ego loss. it's possible to experiene ego loss without the use of drugs so how can you claim it only occurs with 5 grams or more? i've experienced ego death while meditating after smoking a single joint.

Gold! I've had this problem, never being able to find, and subsequently read the clocks in the house. "What kind of house is this, I don't understand these foreign clocks!" =D

I know mushrooms vary in potency, especially if grown on straw & poo. But the point is, I've NEVER heard of someone achieving ego death on less than 3.0 grams, much less describe ego death as being a fun experience, which it is not and anybody who has experienced it will tell you the same.

Eat 10 grams of dried mushrooms, then talk to me about ego death.

First of all an eigth is 3.5 grams - just for the record

Secondly I never said she was having a fun time, she was distressed and confused, hence the not talking for that whole time (as she was trying to find out who she was). Things became more fun once I assured her she was "R" (pseudonym just to keep names protected), and that she was my girlfriend, etc. Sorry for the mixup. Now maybe you need 10 grams of mushrooms to experiance an ego death, but youd have to talk to her and tell her that what she experianced didn't happen. It has been known that there are the occasional people who can trip hard off of less than a gram of mushrooms, and then there are others who can't trip at all on a quarter of an ounce. I think it depends greatly on the individual.
 
I know an eighth is 3.5 grams, ive been growing them for years, bud.

Anyway, my point was that I'd never heard of ego death on less that 3 grams, and I still dont think your girlfriend experienced it.
 
Okay cool i respect your opinion, maybe we can mutually agree that we just don't know what hapepend and we never will.

Peace
 
you are fucking nuts if you took 10 grams dried. i mean that in a good way.

i've tripped off 3.5 grams twice, and each time i most definitley had 'ego loss', im not sure about ego death.

it was really fun the first time, fucking wierd and more scary than anything the second time.

i've heard of a lot of people saying that ego loss is the best part of a mushroom trip.
 
^ I think you learn the most from the ego loss, but calling it the best part is a bit of a far reach.

Everyone's idea of what constitutes ego loss is different, experienced psychonaughts have their own perception, naive users have another, and it's a very grey area to pinpoint. I think anyone that thinks they have experienced it has experienced a certain degree of it. Who's to say that one person's total depersonalisation is exactly the same as another person's? How can we say what is and isn't ego loss when we are all so different?
