Deffpony Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 6 years in the military has forced me to be a good boy for a while. So I have been trying some things (responsibly) that I could never do when I was younger. I wanna try mushrooms pretty bad. I don't have any friends who have ever done them and I'm having trouble finding them to begin with. Anyways I'm looking for some advice on having this experience. I've done MDMA once. But that's it. Anything I should know going into it. Are there do's and dont's There's alot of information on the Internet but its hard to trust is all. I'd rather hear it from people familiar with.

Rather dear I suppose but they do the job Anything I should know going into it. Are there do's and dont's Well, I guess they'd go alright with your Sunday Roast, but the ones I've linked ya have 0.5g of fat so go easy on them, eh? EDIT: Oh and when you reach the checkout, ask for my man Doug, he's real trusty with this kinda sh*t. Edited January 9, 2013 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cold fusion 33 Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Give them a go by all means but be in a good state of mind and atmosphere when you do them. Don't sit at home by yourself or go somewhere you're unfamiliar with surrounded by people you don't know or you could trip badly. So yeah give some a go and under doing it is definitely better than over doing it, and expecting too much would ruin it, for many people, myself included, they give a good buzz but nothing mind blowing, but I'm fine with that.

OverTheBelow Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Do you want to go to prison, a big fine, probation and/or get a dishonorable discharge? I get a dishonorable discharge every time I go for a sh*t. Is that at all relevant to the OP's question? No - much like your superbly dull post. Damn, I need to go to the clinic. Speaking of mushrooms, I'd back LazyBoyEight's recommendation of the Tesco ones. They sure are great if you like mushrooms. If you don't then, well, they aren't great.

GrandMaster Smith Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 6 years in the military has forced me to be a good boy for a while. So I have been trying some things (responsibly) that I could never do when I was younger. I wanna try mushrooms pretty bad. I don't have any friends who have ever done them and I'm having trouble finding them to begin with. Anyways I'm looking for some advice on having this experience. I've done MDMA once. But that's it. Anything I should know going into it. Are there do's and dont's There's alot of information on the Internet but its hard to trust is all. I'd rather hear it from people familiar with. I hope this isn't against the rules in any way, if it is I'll delete the post. Shrooms aren't much like other drugs, especially things like MDMA which are more party drugs, but it's effects are very similar to LSD. There are two things that will either make or break your trip; set and setting. The set being the mindset and mood you're in, setting being the actual location you'll be tripping at. Don't just jump into doing them the first chance you get them, wait for a day where you wake up and everything just seems really positive. You'll want to avoid doing psychedelics if you've had any major emotional events occur lately; break up with a girlfriend, death of someone close or just anything really negative that will effect you. The thing about psychedelics is that it will amplify your emotional state tenfold, this is why mindset is so important and alot of people just don't think about it. This also ties into the setting in which you're tripping at. If you're at a friend of a friends house you don't know to well you may feel somewhat unwelcomed, or if you're in a public place you may feel paranoid; all of which can feed into negative feelings. Always trip in a location that you feel 100% safe in, be it in the comfort of your own home or out in a secluded grassy field in the middle of the countryside. Turn off cell phones or any other distraction and just let yourself go. Alot of the trip may be spent within your head, which may sound confusing but is similar to the first time you smoke weed, just amplified many times. It's best to just become an observer and simply 'watch' your thoughts come in and out while remaining conscious of the fact you dosed on shrooms, some visuals may be intense but just always remember it's just the drug and will wear off lol. And no, just to clarify you won't see pink elephants and floating unicorns. Nothing like that at all.. It'll be things more inline with floors waving up and down, anything with patterned designs would be shifting, twisting and whatnot, colors enhanced ect. Alot of people want to trip solely for the visuals, while can be fun, you'll be so distracted by whats going on in your head that you may not even notice or pay attention to any of the visuals you have. To give an idea of what is may look like, goto and watch www.neave.com/strobe Always be safe, be smart, dose within a safe range (anywhere from a gram to an 8th, depending on how experienced you are with mind altering substances) and just have fun. You can learn so much about yourself and achieve a greater understanding of things. Psychedelics are really more of a self exploration drug than anything, they help you learn about yourself and who you are. You can do them more in the recreational sense, but that's just kind of like drinking fine wine just to get sh*tfaced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clem Fandango Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 "find a sitter, good atmosphere, good frame of mine blah blah blah" That's all bullsh*t. All these drugs are essentially perfectly fine no matter what you do. There aren't any "rules" you need to follow to have a good experience. Honestly, they're f*cking fine.

Stig Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 (edited) ^ Agreed, but it's also HIGHLY dependent on how much you eat. Plus, everyone reacts differently. Friends + couch + shroomin = goodtime The less you ask yourself and worry, the more fun you'll have. Do you want to go to prison, a big fine, probation and/or get a dishonorable discharge?

Deffpony Posted January 9, 2013 Author Share Posted January 9, 2013 Do you want to go to prison, a big fine, probation and/or get a dishonorable discharge? Dude, I'm not in the military anymore, and don't give me the whole prison ordeal. @grand master: thanks for the insight. It will be tough for me not to "plan" it since my schedule is so strict that I won't be able to just drop and go. Couple questions. I was thinking about doing them with a friend. Is that a good or bad idea. Also anything I can do to avoid the nausea. I got really sick on MDMA, I have a weak stomach so to speak, so I really don't wanna spend the whole trip watching wavy lines in my toiled water. Oh and as far as the come down, weed to help me pass out?? The come down for MDMA was god aweful. I couldn't sleep and I felt so burnt out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually drug related discussion is against the rules of Google Ads. The same reason why we can't post nudity and why the swearwords are filtered. For some reason this is the only rule that GTAF does not live by. The Forums Stoners being a good example of that. Not that I really care though. I'm not against all drugs. I know I will try some of them one day. Just sayin'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh and as far as the come down, weed to help me pass out?? The come down for MDMA was god aweful. I couldn't sleep and I felt so burnt out Nausea can vary quite a bit, I felt nauseous a couple times coming up but I think it was just more due to just being anxious than from having a weak stomach. The wavy-ness isn't like being drunk at all.. you don't feel like you're spinning down an endless hole or anything alike, its just like 'holy sh*t, the walls are warping' type feeling lol. I could see how it could possible tie into motion sickness but I've never had any issues with that. And I forgot the mention but yes, the first time you do it would probably be best with a really close friend. Someone who you're not scared of being judged by or anything like that. Sitters aren't necessary but it's always nice to have someone there incase you start to feel uncomfortable. After doing it once or twice and you get the feeling of it then it'd be fine to do by yourself. It all depends on how much you wanna do. If you do a small dose, 1-1.5 grams you could handle it by yourself no problem, it'd just be like smoking the most potent weed in your life. If you do something more along the lines of 3.5 grams then yeah I would have a friend with. There's a major warning behind doing any psychedelics though, it can turn your view and perspective on life completely upside down forever. You may or may not ever look at life in the same way again. It doesn't happen to everyone, but it can make you realize how amazing life is and what a gift it is to be able to experience it. It can help you drop an addiction cold turkey. It can help you find peace within yourself.. it truly is an amazing thing and is much more than just some recreational 'see some pink elephant' drug. Much more. If you wanna do it just to get that feel-good sensation then I would stick more to MDMA and all that stuff. Oh and yeah, come downs aren't bad, just smoke some bud and don't expect to sleep for a good 4-6 hours after you hit baseline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loch Dawg Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 My advice is that you need to set yourself up in the right frame of mind when you do them. If you start feeling weird just remember that it's only the psychedelics taking affect and that in a few hours you'll be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeeperRed Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Shrooms are a pretty good starting psychedelic as if it starts to go south the peak isn't long to ride out. However that's not to say if it goes horribly wrong you will defiantly come out feeling alright. I have seen my friend think he died and climbed back into his mothers womb. Though he is quite a free spirited, open minded person so he literally was fine after he stop tripping. We were even joking about it as he was coming down and he actually really enjoyed the experience. This was a very large dosage however and our first time. I just ended up laughing for about 4 hours and in awe of how amazing the visuals are. Colors patterns, crazy closed eye visual I am sure you have heard it all already. The headspace is very introspective but I always find mushrooms quite cloudy as well with more random thoughts. If you have any serious issues in your life then you might want to wait till there resolved. The less you have to worry about the less chance of something coming up in the trip. I don't tend to do mushrooms often as I find LSD better. It's more clearheaded, focused so you can appreciate the visuals/introspectivity more. However its got a 12 hour run time so mushrooms is a good place to test the water with your psyche. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr.Mister Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Be in a good mindstate before. Doses vary. I have heard people tripping off an eighth, while it took me 10gs to feel it. Quality varies.

I smoke cigarettes here and there but I don't let the urge control me. I just want to try this experience before I die.

Now I don't use any drug, except smoking cigarettes, unfortunately Maybe your friend was just destined to become a hobo in the first place..? There's no doubt overusing and abusing drugs can have their repercussions, but honestly it has more to do with the individual than the drugs at hand imo. If your friend was irresponsible enough to abuse drugs to the point of where he couldn't even take care of himself then his life ending in a disappointment was probably inevitable to begin with. More than likely he wasn't just doing psychedelics either, but I could be wrong. Shrooms and LSD aren't drugs you do day in and day out and don't have much if even any physical addiction risk.
