5 grams of mushrooms, chewed thouroughly and held in mouth for a few minutes then swallowed on a empty stomach of 6 hours.

Set: Had just returned from a cruise in which i saw the most beautiful islands and had had a great time and had also been looking forward to my remaining mushrooms of the 7 grams purchased. I was in a generally above average mood and was fairly ready for a trip. I was seeking a full blown life changing experience from this but knew it was unlikely.

Setting: 1am to 7am, crystal clear weather, light snow on the ground, cold and barren. Included taking a walk outside, driving around to our stoning spot which will be described later. Smoking at a park. Returning home to my room and shower at dawn. Oh not to mention it was halloween in my festive little neighborhood.

Had one friend with me named C for about 2.5 hours. He had taken shrooms a couple of times before and generally knew how to take care of me.

So it began, it was daylight savings and i waited for the clock to hit 1 am and reset then waited another hour. I went into my dirty room and maneuvered myself into my walk in closet, pulled out the rest of my shrooms and started chewing, holding them in my mouth for a few minutes, then swallowing. After downing approximately 5 grams i returned to the computer and began chatting with friends online including C.

After about 15 minutes i decided it was time to prepare for the trip. I entered my room again, turned out all of the lights and began to meditate. The meditation was somewhat complicated and it was definately not what i was hoping for to prepare myself. After meditating for about 30 minutes I opened my eyes and was hit by a enormous perception of change, i had entered the shroom world in all its beauty.

I stood up and put on some sigur ros then lied down hoping to meet some entity or have some enlightening train of thought. I began to get uncomfortable feeling as if i should move, go do something, sensing i was headed for a degenerative trip i decided to do just that. I dressed up and left out my back door.

I proceeded to visit my local park smoking a cigarette and being tripped out by all the decorations of halloween. I can't remember this part to well but i believe i went to the park and just smoked a cigarette and enjoyed the clear air and the city lights about 15 miles south east on the mountain, the sky was clear at this point but there was a cloud front moving in from the west. I returned home and logged on to IM and began talking with C.

I asked him if he wanted to grab a cigarette and hang out for a while, we both suffer from insomnia so we tend to roam around in the wee hours of the morning a lot. He knew i was tripping and told me a car ride is always fun. I told him i could drive to the park i'd just take it real slow and drive in the middle ( the park was only about 250 yards of road away. We agreed to meet at the park and i was off.

Driving was incredibly strange. The road became all stretched out and it appeared that, although i was only going 10 mph, i was going at least 30. It also was more like driving a boat. It felt like unseen forces were wobbling the car and pushing up against the bottom. I made it to the park and parked (good park job too, not on the curb or anything) and lit up another cigarette.

I was mumbling to myself when C knocked on the window. "Holy shit," I screamed and just about jumped out of the window and made a mad dash for my life. C started laughing and i got out of the drivers seat and took shotgun while C turned on the car for heat and began smoking a cigarette. We finished smoking (I happened to smoke the filter yuck) and we were off. I noticed the snow was very orange from the lamp post and it looked very very pretty just glowing a tint of orange against the dark sky.

First we went to shroom road where the road drops off and you can sea the sky perfectly over the houses and you can also see the city on the mountain mentioned before. A few clouds were hovering above the city which turned them orange with their lights. We ended up driving to our stoner spot which is this place that is really flat and in the middle of nowhere and you can see the city on the mountain in one direction and in the other you can see another city just north of ours.

I got out and wandered through the mud and was just entranced by the cover of clouds that had come over us. to the south east they glew orange above me the moon was poking through a bright white with a few stars sparkling as well and then north more orange clouds. It felt like i had no head and it was just erupting into the sky, that it was the sky. I got lost out there 30 feet away from my car and my friend almost had to come get me when i finally figured out where i was and forced myself past the treacherous mud puddles that would be sure to suck me under!

It was really hitting me. We got in the car and he gave me two now and laters, apple and banana, he told me to stick them both in my mouth and i did. Holy fucking shit of santa those where good they kept getting lost in the cavities of my mouth only to pop out screaming flavor of the gods as they ruptured every taste bud in my mouth. We turned on some jazz which was beautiful and started our drive home.

We flipped to rock and marylin manson came on. I couldn't think it was all just assaulting my vulnerable head. Luckily C noticed and realized it was tripping me out and we found more jazz. We eventually drove home and i drove home from his house (not far from the park).

I got home and immediately i remembered i had heard something about a shower. When i undressed for some unkown reason i began to feel more primal. I turned on the shower, which felt odd, it felt cold even though it was warm and it felt like spaghetti. I turned off the lights and was just killed by millions of patterns of CEV's and just enjoyed them for a while. I turned the lights back on and layed down in the shower and suddenly the primal side took over. I just sort of grunted and looking around, my intellectual side kept screaming know this isn't right, i'm a man i think i interpret i'm intelligent. They continued to battle back and forth until finally my intellectual side won over. i got out of the shower and went to my room.

I turned off the lights, put on beethoven's 2nd and 8th and closed my eyes. Thousands of naked women morphing into more naked women pleasantly came over me. It didn't make me horny or anything, i just looked at how beautiful the female body can be in all its different forms, all different types of women were expressed. I had a feeling these women were out there and they had personalities to them, i could almost sense their personality. I just sat there trying to think of something new but they just kept on morphing into more different women (chances are with all the women i saw i've seen one or two of you naked imagine that). I think beethoven might have accidently written some symphony of naked women.

Eventually i turned on my lights as i heard someone walking around upstairs it was about 7 am and my family was getting ready for church. I began to panic, i put on radiohead amnesiac and listened to that album all the way through. I was coming down and it was physically and mentally straining me more than it ever has. I wanted it to be over with i just wanted to sleep. I kept trying to sleep but couldn't, i put on elliott smith which always helps me in hard times, and after about 3 songs i was dead asleep.

I woke up feeling somewhat sick and out of it and even two days later i can still see things a little bit shroomy at nights.

Anyways it was a fun trip except the comedown, not quite my best as that one was just a glowing experience. I didn't get any life changing things accept i am gonna quit cigs now, they are dirty and gross. I'm also in the mood to really get going on school and smoke pot less and try to meet more people and be more extroverted, i guess it did change me a little just i wanted a more spiritual thing which i avoided from the beginning because it just felt wrong and i didn't want a rough trip so i wussed out and made it more recreational.

Long read i know with parts that could have been left out but i hoped you enjoy. Also has anyone else gone completely primitive on their own ass, that was really a startling experience for me.
 
why are you taking psychedelics when you've been diagnosed with schitzoaffective (sp?) disorder, there is nothing good that can come of this. Whats better a night of experiences or a lifetime of suffering. You make the decision.
 
I forgot i'd get this, yeah its my last time probably forever. I just had such a glowing experience before i couldn't resist buying more. I have yet to notice any bad effects from taking them but i know i've just been ignorant and to be honest it really hasn't sunk in that i am schizoaffective. I don't know I guess you could say i'm still in the denial stage, this was my last trip for a while, i decided that on shrooms i was going to have to really reduce the frequency of shrooms and i should probably quit altogether.

I don't know why i do it, a brief escape, the typical reasons that some people get high for. Its hard to comprehend that you are schizoaffective, just imagine if one day you got diagnosed with such a large illness, it just doesn't hit you. I really haven't matured very much in that department, i'm almost as much in denial as i was at first. For example i don't really think i'm schizoaffective i think i've been misdiagnosed but i can't really know for sure what with the bias of denial always pressuring things.
 
what kinda symptoms did they say were schizoaffective.

my advice is you can't really believe everything that's supposed to be believed..

doctors lump shit together... my happiness could be your schizophrenia...

or vice versa..

or whatever..

remember.. al einstein's son was schizo...

there IS something to it!
 
Okay, so you've had your token warning about taking psychoactives whilst having a disorder, so we'll leave that one alone for now. I can't let this one go though, DON'T DRIVE ON PSYCHEDELICS! Please, please please please, consider other drivers and arrive alive, I've seen this argument before and I'm going to barrack on the side of DON'T drive forever, regardless of how confident a driver anyone is.

I feel you with the smoking the filter thing though, I did it on acid and didn't realise until it was too late....eugh,never again.

and 10 points for the nekkid women visuals ;)
 
i once took 10 grams of mushrooms and took off all my clothes and danced around my room listning to metalica for like 4 hours man i know primitive! lol mushrooms= great times in my young life!
