Mushrooms and crying

So I've read reports about why people cry on mushrooms and have my own take on it. When I dosed aprox 3/4 of an eighth of mushrooms I started to have a bad trip. Ive done shrooms about 6 times total in my life. This trip was the first in which I cried waterfalls. I sprayed like a geiser. I felt scared and lonely and abused and I cried, it felt relieving to cry but it was as if the mushrooms were taking all my repressed emotions that I had been bottling up and letting them out. Past boyfriends, fights, and all the things left unsaid and undone were let out. I can say I no longer miss my ex boyfriend who has been haunting me for the past 5 months. I havent cried like this since before puberty. It felt amazing and relieving, years of therapy and ssri's havent come close to in any way shape or form helping me the way psychadelics have.
 
That's really refreshing to hear :) Thanks for sharing. Mushrooms can be extremely healing, sacred material.

I've noticed that other than making you cry for emotional reasons, psilocin/4-aco-dmt definitely has watery eyes as a physical side effect. My eyes always water on 4-xxx-DMT.
 
Yeah, shrooms can bring up some bottled up feelings.. It's good to get them out. It's a healing process.

I remember one trip I had. I was crying my eyes out too.. I was going through some shit in my life and it really helped me get over what I was going through.
 
totally agree,

my view on bad trips is that they dont just happen for a random reason (besides the ones where your setting is just a horrible place). normally bad trips are just things being vented out that were repressed in, imo its a healthy cleansing. It may be difficult but in the end you normally feel a lot better in general even long term after the trip
 
My girlfriend often cries on shrooms and lsd, but not because she is sad, just because she is overwhelmed with emotions....she cries then laughs about it, then cries again, lol, before bursting into laughter again
 
My favorite thing about shrooms is the vast emotional capacity it gives while on/for a few days afterwards.
 
Well I had been watching goodwill hunting and the elliott smith songs just instantly switched on the waterworks, and although his music moves me emotionally anyway its almost impossible to get me to cry. I need to learn to cry more haha

Yes! I have cried on mushrooms before, but never for a long time, and never in what I would call a "bad trip". I don't think crying is anything to be afraid of in mushroom-land, I'd be more worried if I began to feel afraid of crying. Best to just go with it.

I have cried on mushrooms and ended up laughing giddily within 10 seconds. :(:D
 
I absolutely love to cry on psyches! Especially shrooms and at the end of a good dmt trip while on shrooms. I relate with the waste of time therapy is compared to an intense psyche experience. I still would be holding onto years of emotional baggage that did nothing but get me physically sick. The road to both physical and emotional recovery is worth crying for!!
 
yup have spent quite a few hours crying on mushrooms... Way more then any other psychedelic I've ever taken. If there was ever a drug that could be used in "psychedelic therapy" Id imagine itd be mushrooms... By far the best for getting down and dirty work done. Its such a healing experience its hard to explain.

Like I'll tell my friends about the times Ive spent bawling my eyes out like a baby on mushies and they'll pretty much respond "that sounds awful"... And I mean I guess it can be, but its so worth it. IDK what it is about mushrooms but they almost works like a truth syrum for me.. Helps me to realize the things Im too scared or too proud or whatever to admit when Im sober. But being sad or depressed is not the only thing that would make me cry on mushies. Even just hearing Carl Sagan talking about a finite but unbounded universe, or alan watts explain what it means to be God can result in me turning the water works on. Mushrooms are.... its hard to describe man. Best just to eat 5 grams and see for yourself
 
DMT MAKES ME CRY TOO, I feel terrrified and sick after smoking dmt unless Im already tripping on something else.
 
I'm amazed at the reliablility of mushrooms for eliciting healing states, brings up something that i've been ignoring to the surface then I confront it, every come up is the same and I can't have the fun portion of the trip until I deal with that karma (usually during yoga sessions that emphasize the space in my body that the tension is held)
 
I have cried on shrooms before, alternating with laughter, during the come-up.
That was less about being sad than about simply being overwhelmed with human emotions that ran the full scale.

I have cried on cactus as well, but that was about experiencing the full depth of the emotion in the music I was listening to. It was something like crying along with the music, but maybe it was "crying the music".

There is little I like more than a good cry.
It really sets things straight.

Exactly what I found myself asking was "why am I not having as much fun as the first few times I've tripped" I realized I had so much garbage plugged up in my sentimental sinkhole that I'd never let myself deal with. The shrooms let me get over something that could have otherwise taken months or years of therapy to get over. Its been a few days since I last tripped and I still feel cleansed. Im so greatfully dead alive.

Yeah, I've also cried during the coming-up of a truffles/MAOI-trip. It seems to be a time in which it's easy to get emotional - laughing & crying.

(Or it might have been because of certain female hormones which are always making me feel emotional, too... :\)
 
Im really find shrooms refreshing, I took a few fresh Psilocybin Cubensis like 4 hours ago and I have cried a sea of emotions. At first I was thinking about the people I've hurt, my friends, my family. Then I felt an urge to go see pictures of my sister that lives in DC and Im in Puerto Rico, so I miss her alot. Then al of a sudden Im looking at the mirror and what the mirror reflects is a man broken down to tears, and he is bound to let them go. I found a man, that understood the pain that have caused other people. Remember, it is refreshing to cry but always remember and think back what caused you to cry, that is the real magic of mushrooms.
 
^interesting
i found when i take acid sometimes the pain inside can come out as laughter, but this isn't so deep, and i get the feeling magic mushrooms are a better key to one's heart

I recently cried for the first time on psychedelics.

It sort of reached a point beyond good and bad and was sort of a release into a greater sense of wholeness.
