First of all, here's what I ingested. I'm thinking I got some bad mushrooms:

I only managed to get an eighth; I wanted to do at least two eighths, so I decided I'd just sample the eighth at low doses, as a teaser (when I trip, I wanna trip.)

I thought mushrooms would produce a golden effect

Clarity of thought; laughter; pleasant body sensations.

It was nothing like that.

Mild nausea; neutral, heavy-feeling body-buzz; lights became slightly brighter; and people looked very lurid -- kind of like when you put glasses on for the first time in your life. The doses I took were too low for any visuals (I basically quartered the eighth, over a week), but I experienced mild tracers. Let me put it this way: One time I downed a small bottle of Robotussin Max; this felt like I drank half the bottle. I guess a good way to describe the experiences is: mild delirium. A cold high. Another kid I talked to, who took these shrooms, also said the effects were kind of delerious.

An acidhead I used to hang out with told me that shrooms felt poisonous to her, whereas acid felt clean. A bunch of people seem to feel this way.

Does it depend on the type of mushrooms? Do some mushrooms have more of a poisonous feel?

Merged this question in as well.

Mushrooms are not some golden panacea... they're a very serious teacher plant, and you've got to use them in the correct setting with the correct mindset or they're likely to make you feel very uncomfortable. I've only had one mushroom trip that didn't make me feel really uincomfortable and wish I hadn't taken them during the come-up, until the peak. Once you settle into the state after the usually difficult come-up, it will get calm and beautiful for the peak usually, unless you give in to the anxiety of the come-up, and then it will be a difficult trip. If you've got repressed issues (which most people do even without realizing it), they will most likely come to the surface, and you'll have to deal with them or they'll give you a bad time. But these trips can be the most valuable because you tend to learn things about yourself and deal with the issues. if you do that, those issues can be removed and you can improve as a person. if you try to ignore or re-suppress them, you'll be in worse shape than before you took the mushrooms.

Generally, in my experience, the first few trips can be quite rough. After that as long as you've integrated the experiences, they tend to get a lot easier and you can go deeper into the psychedelic state.

Hope this helps at all. :)

DO NOT stop your medications to trip. Thats foolish.

Try fasting. My stomach used to feel a bit uneasy but then I started not eating before trips and have absolutly no urge to throw up. Be sure to have a nice transition in and out of the fast.

I'll agree with you on that point. I fasted for at least 8+ hours before my first trip, and had not an inkling of nausea, while my friend that had ate 2-3 hours before, had a medium nausea episode for a bit, but he cleared right up about 2 hours into the session.

For First time mushroom trippers or anyone thinking of doing them..
1: Be 100% sure they are psychedelic shrooms. Get them from someone you trust. Eating random mushrooms that someone may have just pulled from the ground and dried up can easily kill you. Maybe they are trying to make a buck and rip you off. However I haven't heard of that ever happening.

2: 1/2 eighth or 2/3 of an eighth is a really good starting point.

3: just munch and chase them down with water or juice.

4: I doubt you will even want to do other drugs while on them, especially drinking. Weed is good for some people though.

5: 1/2 eighth (depending on potency and the user's size) will last about 6 hours, give or take.

6: Myth busters:

-you WILL lose a sense of time - so if you are having a bad trip just thinking it will be over in a few hours doesn't help. but don't worry, just change the scenery or find a distraction. it will pass.

-yooking in the mirror IS fun.

-tripping with others is better than tripping alone.
(remember - this is for 1st time mushroom users and might not apply to everyone).

7: don't worry. anxiety is normal, but you wouldn't have eaten them if you didn't want to experience it. You're going to have fun, everyone does their first time.

8: it is non-addictive. (duh)

9: don't plan on having to drive.

10: Upset stomach or feeling weird is normal during digestion. Try and poo before hand to get it out of your system.

11: (for guys) your weiner is going to look weird. Don't do anything drastic. Some people say sex on shrooms is great.

12: If you see strangers and they all look like the have down's syndrome, the shrooms are working.

13: if you have discovered the meaning of life and religion, the shrooms are working.

14: If you get lost in a line waiting to get on a roller coaster at a theme park, the shrooms are working.

15: The only thing that will give you away that you are tripping is your pupils will be very dialated. Also animals just seem to "know".

Best mushie checklist Ive ever read!!!!!
 
Seriously does the size of the mushroom matter, Ive always thought once the veil breaks nomore psilocybin is produced, but Ive gotten people 1/8ths before wild, with larger caps and theystill had a good time, obviously with less caps


Im so Confused :(
 
I have a question...I bought a bag of shrooms from a "friend" and they're just stems, no caps. I didn't get a chance to inspect them upon purchase because it wasn't me who actually made the exchange, but a friend who is less experienced with drugs than I am. I've never done shrooms before, but I'm not a total drug newbie. Did I get totally ripped off? It seems like the general consensus is that stems are weaker than caps. Should I increase the dosage?
 
Makes me wonder who's got the caps, and probably for free.
And what his trip will look like. Brrr.
 
Tripped on 3 grams mexican cubensis on saturday night. Awesome fun. The shrooms were absolutely gross by themselves so I put them in a peanut butter sandwich and they went down alright, although there was a bit of nausea here and a few tummy rubbles there. I threw up a couple of hours and a few beers into the trip, but this seemed to amplify the trip.

Anyway, my question is about storage. If you are keeping your mushrooms in a sealed baggie, will they go 'off' anytime soon? Is there any better way of storing them?
 
^Are they dry? If not, dry them either with the power of air or with light heat (ie. a small radiator with the mushrooms somewhere above). Then seal them in a vial ie. film canister stylee, put in a dark place with a sealed packet of dessicant in there (optional) and they will keep for quite some time.

Incidentally, I quite like the taste of mushrooms...
 
^^ The taste of fresh mushrooms is actually pretty pleasant... they're nutty and earthy. I remember once while tripping on mushrooms already I ate a nice big fresh one and it tasted awesome. :)
 
personally the flavor of boomers coupled with the texture makes me gag a bit,
rolling it up inside a fruit roll up cures that problem though.

I have a court date on the 28th for sale of psylocin. =[
Dumb mistake.
 
I already asked this a page or two back but I really want you guys to weigh in, without making a new thread.

Do you think even one-time 3.5g mushroom use could affect or change one's future cannabis highs? I've noticed they're much more psychedelic.
 
^i personally feel like mushrooms have made me psychologically notice certain aspects of a cannabis high, and take advantage of those notices. but not physically.. as in i get higher because i've taken mushrooms

but i too have noticed that familer psychedelic head space more recently when i've smoked some
 
Sure... I'd say that if you got a lot out of mushrooms, they have the capability to change a lot of things about your life, particularly in what you notice about your activities, including getting high.
 
thought, most suppositories are bond in wax (like chap stick) I wonder what powdering an 1/8th of mush and mixing it with some chap stick and plugging would be like. Possibly would get rid of the come up
