So yeah the question is in the title. The reason im asking is because I think im finally doing shroomz for the first time this summer. Some backround... The reason im asking you guys to compare it to DXM is because I belive its the most similar thing to shroomz of done up to this point.

All the "trippy" (dissosiatives, halucingens, Phenthylamine) substances iv done are:

Salvia
Nos (youd have to be crazy to have a bad trip)
2c-b
Mdma/pills
Dxm
weed (big suprise huh)

Salvia was definalty the craziest (in terms of tripping out) and iv never had a bad trip, but it only last five minutes. The only thing that conerns me about shrooms is how long it is (you strapped in theres no way of getting out). For that reason I can see it being comaparble to some dxm experiences.A couple time I did dxm I was in and out of feeling good (take in mind I took zero percautions doing this drug, the first time was a shitty rainy day with nothing to do)

HERES MY REAL CONERN. (the whole emotional aspect of phycadellics) This one time I did DXM I legit tried to trip myself out in a bad way... I know thats a super bad idea, but I just wanted to see If I could handle it. If i could bring myself back to reality I could be prepared for many similar things in the future. The DXM was like NOOOOO!!! it wouldnt even let me think of bad things in my life, it was like filtiring it or sommthing. Later that night I was forced into a problem with a realtionship and I puked (after i was less hi and didnt trip bad)

The big question. Given this info, if im with good friends in a good settting should everything be fine for the most part?

Also probobly going to take a higher dose of 2cb before I do this to prepare myself.
 
I HAET fucking dxm
so yeah
i can handle shroooms just fine, but i WONT touch DXM, it SUCKS
dmx is a rapper, just sayin
 
apples and oranges.

i've enjoyed both, in different ways. sometimes it would make sense for me to do one, but not the other. (btw, with dxm i always combine w/ cannabis, which by itself or with psychs i don't like, but it's different w/ dxm).

oh, and an alternative answer: try them both together! i've combined dxm and shrooms (and cannibis) with great success.
 
I would pick shrooms over dxm anyday (tried doing 1 bottle of robo and did'nt enjoy the high, it was so so, was horrible comedown feeling, felt lke had a cold or something and reaked havoc with my bowls)

Fairplay if going to be the 3rd or 4th plateau is real interesting, but i went to the 1st and did'nt see the attraction, way to weak. Shrooms rule thruogh ;)
 
It will be most like 2C-B; that's the only other serotonergic psychedelic in your list.

2C-B (and psychedelic pea's in general) have a distinctly different feel than tryptamines, and 2C-B in particular doesn't go very deep mentally, while psilocin does. That does mean that it's easier to have a bad trip, but it's also more likely to produce meaningful - rather than merely fun - experiences.
If you do it in a good setting, with people you're comfortable tripping with, it should be fine. Id advise not smoking weed until you're already coming down, if at all.
 
Thnx for the advice guys. Can anyone describe some similarites and diffrences in effects between the two.

The most interesting effects that have happend on dxm

Enchanced colours (bright green grass was infact burnt brown)
Music/audio - actaully came out of the tv and I felt it, a truck hit a puddle and I felt it through my whole body
Depth perection - feet up to my knees, things closer and further then they are.
Closed eye visuals
Mild open eye visuals - steped on a leaf thought it was a purple frog.
Got hippi-ish? - Became really pissed off at cars after leaving a lake.
Supressing emotion - Like I said i tried to trip myself out negativly, and the dxm wouldnt let me. Wouldnt let me have a bad trip.

The most undesirable effects

Nausia - Who knew that a bottle of cough syrup could make you feel sick.
Bad vibes - Thats mostly me not taking percautions (wanna trip today?) but it never lasted a long time.
Emotions - I was bascically forced to face a relationship problem I had (this was real not in my head) But the DMX made me puke where I would normally, pretend it didnt bother me.

Hangover effects

The day after I blazed with some friends and a video game with polygon graphics (3d, games today) became 2-D. This was actually really cool, it freaked me out at first because I thought it was just the weed!

Im sure iv had a headache or sommthin, my legs felt weird for like a day after one time.
 
Enhanced colors, definitely - but you can always tell what color something actually is (IME). Music is enhanced. I also experience differences in perception of distance and size.
stepping on a leaf and thinking it was a frog is bizzare. I get patterning OEVs, sometimes "melting" visuals, or seeing far more stars than there are supposed to be in the night sky on typical psychedelics, but never cases where an object looks like a totally different object.

Suppressed emotion? No, quite the opposite on shrooms. Taking shrooms recklessly, in bad mindset/setting, is a bad idea.

There's some nausea with shrooms, hits some worse than others. I got zero nausea from them, but a friend was puking.

Yes, psychedelics can make you face issues in your life. This can sometimes be quite helpful, as you see things from a different perspective, and can recognize things you might not have otherwise.

I've never had visual effects the next day from shrooms. (2C's? absolutely. Shrooms/other 4-sub-trypts, only in combo with 2C's). Often you don't sleep quite as well after tripping, and end up tired or unfocused the next day.
 
Yeah I figured 2c-b is the most similar, but I didnt really trip that hard off (well not as intense as dxm)

The frog thing, yeah I thought that was pretty out there ahahah it was like a split second but thats def what I saw. The supressed emotion thing, i thought was weird, and am def not expecting it for shroomz.

Out of everything iv done I have never experinced the "melting or shifting" it happend to my friend who took more 2cb then me. I didnt go all out with the 2cb because there was nothing to do that night (the wreckless pycadellic use your talking about)

Dont mix with weed, really? I never did it with dxm (dxm was one of the first things i tried other than weed) but since then iv blazed with basically everything and makes it better. I should note im one of those people who really enjoy mixing mdma and weed (goes together like pb and j imo) Then again the only long lasting "trippy" drugs iv done are dxm and 2cb. I smoked with the 2cb and was great (wasnt tripping that hard tho) and when I did dxm it either didnt occur to me to smoke or I didnt have any. Looking back i could see weed helping with dxm.

Good advice tho thnx
 
O also big question as far as the emotional aspect goes. I dont wanna come off as super emo lol but i feel like my mindset isnt going to be perfect anytime soon.

At the same time I feel like im overthinking it/overreacting. Iv heard of people being helped out by phycadellics. As in things wernt working out, they then look at things from a diffrent perspective and gain some clarity. When I hear that story I wonder why they took shroomz in the first place (i wonder why you would take phycadellics knowing your shit isnt together) It also blows my mind how people can get addicted to phyadellics (like wouldnt you always have a bad trip constantly facing the fact your addicted)

With that being said im not an emotinonal trainwreck or anything but im not exactlly at the perfect time in my life, but really who is. The two reasons I havnt done shrooms in the past is because it was winter when we could get them, or I was freaked out (not a great time in my life) Keep in mind this was highschool and who dosent go through the cliche trials and tribulations of highschool (NOBODY GETS ME!! ... lol)

The best idea would be to wait till im like 100% satisfied with life but id like to take shroomz befor im married with kids lol.
 
i think dxm leaves u more fucked up, like alcohol, than shrooms

i can barely see straight on dxm

shrooms over dxm any day
and dxm over infected mushrooms
 
lol im aware, but you cant tell me there are any similar effects? From what iv heard from people whov done both there are some similarites. Im not looking for a detailed trip report or anything.

Yeah when I did dxm it was more drunk (intoxicating) then say 2cb (but keep in mind i didnt take a huge dose of 2cb, however my friend seemed to be the opposite of intoxicated as he claimed he could manipulate the "shifting and melting" effects to some degree)

Personally, I don't think DMX can be beat
 
I think that DXM is nasty stuff but that it is metabolized differently by a lot of people, giving a really diverse spread of tolerance levels. I am one of those that mostly get amnestic and feverish from it.

You want to psych yourself out to try and manifest something? I would recommend changing that plan for the better! You can get really far out by something that does not need confusing yourself. Sorry but that is a really ineffective plan. What is better is to try something exactly like meditation. I have been in many varieties of both states of being, both being in deep meditative states as well as being deeply psyched out in a trip.

The difference to me is this: psyching yourself out is trying to cause a problem, which you are forced to solve, and every time you do this you risk either overcoming something or failing, falling in recursive negative emotion and problems with identifying (as well as keeping a coherent sense of reality. It's like starting to move frantically and hoping to do at least 3 steps forward as you go 2 steps back.

Meditating is instead starting from a centered state, one ready to dissociate but in a steady fashion, with intent and therefore understanding. Of course the real 'understanding' and the dissolution into 'just experiencing'. Temporospatial conceptualization and abstraction capabilities are then fleeting, severely deepening and mystesterizing states of consciousness can be directly approached with a finger on the progress dial.
While tripping it can be very intuitive and surprisingly easy to do. To be in such a psychedelic trip probably means that you are more sensitive to trance-like states.

It's absolutely incredible what you can do with some basic understanding of meditation (and maybe such things as yoga and t'ai ch'i). What it has suggested to me is that it allows you to feel incredibly complex energy flows going, sometimes theoretized into thing like chakra systems and other esoteric matters. This esotery is as theory disappointing, knowing is not even half worth as much as the just experiencing of it all...

With something like mushrooms, it is IMO just a question of time before you meet your deeper sense of self and some conflicts within, that alone can with mushrooms be really harsh life lessons because for instance it is good to learn to deeply let go of something. Which is associated with 'good ways to die, similar to the stages in near-death experiences. Letting go of yourself ultimately is the only key to a sense of enlightenment. Be be able so go there and have so much I think you first have to let go of so much. There is nothing like losing hope that you will ever survive something and then discovering that you go *there* (not an afterlife but to a near-death-state comparable to strong ego-death) and come back again, that you can still just be confiding, that after pure heaven and pure hell there is mediocrity again, and ups and downs that just seem to work as fractals and usually be proprortional to each other on different levels. By that I mean the basis of vicious circles, positive internal feedback systems if you will.

Thnx for the info, what you said about "letting go" makes alota sense to me. (of course not in a wreckless way)

As far as phycing myself out, that made me think. I was going to say "that was just the dxm a one time thing" but this makes me realize when im doing shroomz for the first time I cant just block everything out and get "fucked up" and I should really prepare myself, and not go into this "to care free".

sorry if i misinturpreted what you said, but it was helpful.
 
Great idea, it's my signature though: it is automatically placed under everything I post so it was not meant personal, even remotely.
