passing out on mushrooms?

A few months ago, I had a rather odd experience on mushrooms. I had been up approximately 24 hours, and had the equivilent of about 5-7 drinks before I took approximately 4.6 grams of dried cubes. This was my largest dose as of yet, with 2 previous experiences of 2.3 grams (weak trip for me, little effects on 2 other people) and 3.5 grams (great experience....favorite drug experience as of yet). This night went as expected, with lots of visuals, some complete mindfucks, but overall quite enjoyable. After the trip has pretty much passed (5-6 hours later....now at 30 hours without sleep) we walked to a friends house. there we smoked a little weed, as we had throughout the trip. After an unknown period of time, I started getting really bad stomach cramps, but I dismissed them initially as just the afteraffects of the mushrooms. they continued to grow in intensity (or so it seemed...maybe the shrooms magnified the effect) until my fiance noticed I wasn't looking so good, and asked if i wanted to lay down or something. i got up to walk back to the bedroom, when i just.....collapsed in a heap. My knees buckled, and I just went down in a pile. I was only out a few seconds, waking up to my panicked fiance telling someone to call 911. I told everyone not to panic and that I was Ok. I got up, and the same thing happened, and again, I came to right away. I managed (with some help) to make it to the bedroom, where I soon feel asleep, and woke up feeling fine. Was it just lack of sleep coupled with too intense of an experience? or did something else happen here? No other drugs, other than a moderate amount of alcohol, some cannabis, and the shrooms were involved.
 
yeah this happened to me once. I think it was because I smoked weed and forgot to breath. or didnt breath enough to get significant amount of air. I passed out got up with a friends help and layed own to sleep for a few hours and woke up fine.
 
This didn't have anything to do with my breathing, I don't think. To the best of my knowledge, I had no trouble breathing. My only explanations for what happened was that
A. My body just saud " Enough!!" and shut down momentarily
B. That when I stood up to go to the bedroom, I experienced a headrush intense enough (in my body's weakened condition) to cause me to pass out

Anyone else ever had anything along these lines happen?
 
Yeah, cannabis can give a lot of people (including myself) some very uncomfortable and dizzying headrushes. In your case I would assume it was exacerbated by the alcohol, mushrooms and lack of sleep.

But no, I can't say I've ever had this happen to me.
 
I don't know how many times in mid-mushroom-trip that I've WISHED I would pass out, yet it never happened... seems like that could be a good thing, no?

LOL....I actually was enjoying myself immensely until I had this weird little experience. My fiance reminded me today that I had't really eaten much that day either....I think it was just a combination of factors, which I won't subject myself to again before tripping.
 
It's never happened to me, but it did once happen to a friend of mine. We'd eaten a fairly low dose of Psilocybe Mexicana Sclerotia (truffles) and just got back from a wander round the park. We were just chilling, smoking a joint, my friend was sat at his computer and suddenly fell forwards head-first onto the floor. He came round a second or two later and was fine, but momentarily passed out a few more times afterwards. He was fine in the end but for a second it scared the shit out of me. I don't think either of us had had any alcohol either, so it seems that mushrooms or some combination of mushrooms, weed and possibly other factors can cause this. It doesn't seem to be anything too serious though. I've seen several threads similar to this one and no-one seems to have reported any serious effects from it.

I've had similar things happen to me on mushrooms before.

This trip report documents the second such occasion I passed out on mushrooms. I went started feeling very faint, my vision got pixelated and eventually washed over to white. Moments later I found myself face up on the floor watching the ceiling rematerialize before my eyes.

It was fucked up and sucked.

Lesson? Stay hydrated and keep your blood sugar up when eating mushrooms.
 
Bluedolphin, what you described is almost identical to what happened to me, along with a feeling of my guts being twisted and pulled, which was uncomfortable to say the least. Since mushrooms are a rare treat for me, I'll use better planning for my next trip, going into it sober and well rested. Thanks for your response.

LOL I hear ya! Last night, my friend and I had eaten a quarter each, the most he has eaten before. We drank a bottle of captain morgans while a couple girls drank some bacardi razz or some shizznit... and later in the night, we were outside smoking a cigarette and he just fell over and hit the ground. I picked him up, threw water on his face, he woke up and wanted to lay down. Tried to keep him awake by making food, which woke him up and he was fine after that! What I got from it was that he just didn't wanna be there, he was having a rough emotional time with an ex girl.
 
drink water...eat...

give your body fuel when your tripping.

I have never passed out completely on shrooms, lied down maybe, fell asleep possibly. I've passed out from a lot of weed though. So my advice is to be careful. I think it's something that happens once in a while.
 
it happened to me once. it was also after the trip, like 1h after, we were drinking some beer but really not much. i stand up and after i've walked a little bit, i felt the need to puke and i wasn't able to stand myself on my feet. i also felt a pressure in my head.

i haven't really collapsed but if i did have not something to lay down, maybe i'd have collapsed.
in my case it was not the lack of sleep or the alcool. maybe the need of food, i don't know...

and i thing bluedolphin give the good advice.
 
it happened to me once
3g peganum harmala + around 10g dried mushrooms (i have a big tolerance)

i felt great
was totally in control of my thoughts
just some difficulty talking
then suddenly i felt dizzy, felt i was going to faint and started to look for a place to lay down
i also woke up laying on the floor with a bump on my head.
i threw up a bit
and felt extremely good again
then went back home
and threw up everything i had eaten

that was my first and only stupid drug experience so far
the first time i lost the control when i didn't expect to
i didn't expect to because the effects of the mushrooms were strong but not overwhelming

i could easily have fainted in stairs or in front of a car.
 
During the 24h you were up and drinking, etc... had you had anything to eat? Thats a while to not eat anything, especially w/ the alcohol.
 
My first shroom trip turned into a bad trip, and I was sure I was fucked up mentally for the rest of my life. My friend who was also shrooming for the first time left my room, and I felt as if he had been gone for an eternity, and was sure he died out there, but since I was feeling so bad, I wouldn't leave my bed.

Turned out he passed out.

I don't have a logical explanation.
 
its happened to me before...my vision went black and white and the next thing I knew I was in the kitchen with my roommates asking me if I was ok. I had no idea what had happened...

I think I remember reading that shrooms lower your blood pressure....that could be the cause of it.
