Random Laughs and Confusion (first time shroom)

[trancetasy]

This is my first time on mexican cubensis and probably the last time i'll ever take.
sorry i'm still dazed from it right now, it's been 6 hours since i took them.

4pm - i ate approx 2 grams of dried mexican cubensis on empty stomach
4:45pm - i felt sick, took a shower and puked out a little bit.
After 5pm - i watched Fast &Furious Tokyo Drift on tv and laughed at every random shit, now this is when it gets strange. the walls seem like it were "breathing" i saw twirl shapes around what i focused on. my carpet seem like 3D and poked out at my foot. i started to get uneasy, i was like "i took some shrooms, relax." i started seeing walls morphing sideways, i focused on the buddha to let him know that i felt like i was dying please guide me and protect me. my cat jumped next to me, snap me back to reality.

i took a 2nd shower because i felt very cold, i thought it was a bad idea to have candle light. i was confused at getting the right warmth and i saw dark shadow figures in the corner of my eyes. i got out looked at myself in the mirror, my pupils were enlarged and red veins. i've attempted to snap myself out of the "breathing walls" several times. i was terrified that this should've lasted no more than an hour. i took too much mushrooms.

7pm, i got back to the living room, decided to vaporize a bowl of weed, strain called "Amnesia Haze." After smoking weed. I started to have a bad trip. i thought my neighbors will hear me laughing/puking so i got really paranoid. i laid on the sofa looking at the walls breathing making funny shapes, i wished it would stop. i walked around jumping between reality and funny walls. i wanted to sleep really bad but i felt like if i had sleep i would never wake up again.

8~9pm, after trying to sleep several times i thought i was going to die so i did not want to fall asleep. i ate a banana, only to throw out later. i ate some watermelon and it made me feel a little better.

it is now 10:50pm, i've regained my conscious. the walls still twirl a bit if i focus hard enough. obviously i took too much shrooms for the first time. i am fairly experience mdma/ketamine/marijuana user but never done lsd or shroom before.

Hey. Welcome to the psychedelic experience! First off, I must say it sounds like you had some pretty strong mushrooms based on the fact that you had a small dose (2 grams) and such an immense effect! Also, shrooms are *not* supposed to last for only one hour. They generally last from 5-7 hours, rather.

I have a few questions for you... What kinda mindset were you in before partaking? It sounds from what you wrote that you just got hung up on a lot of little things that were happening in your psyche and simply did not like the chemical feeling produced from the tryptamine(s). Were any particular thoughts making you uneasy during this trip, or do you think that psychedelics just aren't your thing and that there couldn't be another, better circumstance where you could trip and enjoy the delights of altered perception? I mean, you describe classic psychedelic visual distortions, but you express distaste when it comes to them. Any particular reason why this bothered you? When I read your report, I thought that everything you described sounded like it would be pleasant, yet you said you were not feeling so well yourself. Maybe this is because you had trouble letting go. You said that you tried to "snap yourself out" of the visuals - I've never heard of that kind of attitude producing a pleasant experience. Going with the flow tends to make for a more enjoyable experience; you have to be okay with letting go in order to really get into the psychedelic experience.

What was your motivation for tripping? Curiosity? Self-betterment? Spiritual purposes? Visuals? You said that you probably won't revisit, but If you ever do, perhaps a clear intention for your journey might help. Thanks for sharing!

finally fall asleep around 1am and woke up now. My mindset was to explore the psychedelic experience of magic mushroom. I had a uplifting mindset before/during taking this but i found the walls distorting was too much for me, not to mention my whole body was nearly numb. That got me really annoyed after a while because i wanted it to stop. I wasn't feeling well because I had stomach ache for 2 days and i was tired from work. i still took the shrooms that night while i had a good breakfast and bread for lunch. It will be a while till I want to trip on shrooms, next time it will definitely be a spiritual purpose to self improvement.

trancetasy; this sounds like what happened the first time I took shrooms (0.67g). Isolated, discrete moments of fun and laughter punctuated by moments of discomfort. It was by myself, in my own place; but I had no one present to 'help' me through the rough spots. Didn't vomit (came close though). Subsequently found that the more frequently I took mushrooms, the less difficulty they gave my stomach.

I didn't know what was happening to me. I didn't know how long it was lasting. And I didn't know if I broke my brain. After about 6 hours I felt 'normalish' or at least not so predisposed towards dark thoughts.

It's going to vary with everyone, but I always have an 'anchor' (most often a movie waiting, but sometimes a favorite piece of food).

Yes, early on in my shroom taking a sore stomach could easily last for a few days.

At least with mushrooms, I've found perseverance can pay off.
