Question about shrooms?

I tried searching but I didn't know how to word it so I could get the answers I'm looking for and I couldn't really find anything helpful. So whenever I do more than one hit of LSD I start to loose control(I still have common sense) But I will say random things and zone out in the middle of a conversation. Also I know I'm coming up and then all of the sudden its already been an hour or 2 and I can't remember what the hell happened. So that kinda ruins the trip but when I used to use 25i I always had a clear head. I hear an eighth is a pretty good dose but do they generally cause that much confusion?
 
An eighth is a pretty strong dose. I enjoy taking multiple hits of LSD but find an eighth of mushrooms to usually be too much for me personally. I find 2-2.5 grams to be much more enjoyable. Any more than that I find to be a little sedating and overwhelming. I can certainly see 3.5 being disorienting for you.
 
LSD has much higher activity in dopamine vs traditional psychedelics. Anti psychotics like haldol block the action of dopamine. Probably some relations in this connection and LSD tenancy for higher risk of setting off things long term.

That being said mushrooms are the best. Eat a couple than eat a couple more later... Unless they are huge and bone dry. Depending on strain the amount differs although unless someone picked them outside you probably have cubensis if someone grew them for you. 1.75 grams of dry mushroom is a good start although for the first time 3.5 grams is the most recommended. Always have a knowledgeable sitter with you for your first time as the above poster mentioned things could get weird.
 
Is the loss of control and the self not what everyone seeks in psychs? The clear-headed, boring nature of 25i is what I hated about it, all filler, nothing to take away from the experience.

With mushies, I personally feel that eating under an eighth is extremely... boring, per say. The mind fuck creeps in a little, but not enough for it to be worth-while; however, at an eighth, I get plastered to the floor and waves of bliss wash over me as I become the carpet, and the carpet becomes me. I say just dive in, even if it's a bit tough, the comedown period is always so peaceful and tranquil for me.
 
don't go higher than 2.5g, any higher and the trip tends to cause quite a bit of confusion in those prone to it.
 
As a mushroom lover (and someone who tolerate them very well), I say the more the merrier (for myself). As someone who advocates responsible, educated use, I say start low; perhaps 1g. See how you react to that. Wait a week and take an increased dose. Repeat, etc.

There is no hurry, and nothing lost if you don't feel the magic on a lower dose. You can always take more; you can never take less once you've dosed.

One method of careful dosing might be to make a teak and then volumetrically dose.

ive done acid 6 times and shrooms 3 times. on acid ive never found it hard to communicate with others generally. i never did more than 1-3 hits. i mean never really had any intense visuals either, everything just became very defined, pronounced, outlined. HD vision :)

On shrooms, first time was 1/3 of an 8th (8th between 3 ppl). was the most enjoyable experience of my life. it was first time tripping for them, and 2nd/3rd time total for me. There weren't any heavy visuals. we just played rayman (classic ps1) and couldn't stop insanely laughing at everything and really enjoying the moments. Like really really stoned with slight visuals, enough to truely enjoy. great body and mental high. enjoyed talking with each other the whole time (but generally it wasnt more than us saying DUDE THIS IS SO AWESOME LOLOL)

2nd time, 1/8 of shrooms. LOL. idk about having a conversation, you will be too busy watching EVERYTHING CONSTANTLY morphing and seeing things that arent there. it may get confusing. but it was very intense but very enjoyable. be careful, as in, be sure you're in the right place for it.

3rd time. 1/2 of an 1/8th. weirdly, it seemed just as strong, (the same) as the 1/8 trip. only prob was i didnt have a great time with it at first, mb cuz i didnt eat or sleep much that day, or just wasnt so comfy w/ the people there, felt weird in my own body. i mean i was still a newb at life/talking u know.

but the comedowns on shrooms are so nice and relaxing, especially outside, that convos become very deep and intense. id say during the trip itself, it'd be more interesting to go for a nature walk on a nice day and just observe and become lost in it.

id trust a natural over a synthetic for anything (food, drug etc)

but dont do drugs.
 
First time I did shrooms, I had 1/2 an eighth during the day, and it was mild, some visuals but nothing mental. Took the other 1/2 at night, again more visuals but nothing crazy. Second time took a full 1/8 and this was my first real trip of any kind and it was insanely awesome, especially since I was with 5 good friends, all tripping balls, in an empty campground. I've probably done shrooms about 6-8 times since then, taking 1/8 every time. There's no way I would ever go under, unless I was combining with something else.

Shrooms are my favorite. It's crazy, introspective, and doesn't last TOO long. And my body can take it fine. The hysterical laughter from psychadelics was one of the most unexpected but nice surprises about tripping for me.

OP, 1/8 is a strong dose, but totally do-able. although, it does sound like you have a low drug tolerance. With acid, I'll do 2-3 hits. Did 4 once, and that was pretty insane, but nothing scary.

I've always done 1/8 for shrooms and never really considered anything else until now. Just out of curiosity. I wonder if there's a ceiling on how crazy it can get with shrooms. Anyone ever do more than 3.5g?

My 'sweet spot' is between 3.5 and 5.5g; but I've done more (and less) and enjoyed them both for different reasons.

However, at greater than 6g I find them to be utterly incapacitating; all I can do is sit, stare and enjoy.

I've enjoyed every trip from 1g to 3.5g 3.5 was the most intense and quite easy to get lost in. I have observant impeccable control while tripping though.

I'd suggest half an eighth would be a good starter dose.
