last time i took shrooms my ex got mad at me for not caring enough that her food was taking too long to get delievered to her at work. she was mad at me the whole time i was tripping and wouldnt tell me why until i came down
What’s pillow duty?
Judging from the context, allowing one’s chest to be used as a pillow.
Dudes rock
counterpoint: Bro no
Haha this turned dark real quick.
It’s not that dark. If mushrooms helped you realize you don’t wanna be married to a person you should divorce them. Why spend time with someone you don’t want to be with?
There is this belief for some reason that divorce is like the end of the world and a giant nightmare but like, I’ve done it, its not hard stuff and as long as you and your (soon to be) ex-partner aren’t assholes then the hardest thing is gonna be making your schedules line up.
Like Yeah it’s devastating to lose a built in best friend, but also you gotta live your truth
Anyways don’t jump on mushroom thoughts immediately, let them settle and ferment for a bit before you follow them.
I’ve been divorced. But i didn’t decide to do that while tripping balls sucking on some other girls titties. It’s a data point only.
Yeah shrooms are way more likely to give you the ability to think through legitimate problems than generate spontaneous bad ideas. Still though, give it some thought when you come down.
Yeah you never act on your psychedelic realizations for at least a few days. Gotta give it time to settle
i remember hearing something along the lines of “before making a decision, consider it once while sober and once while drunk.”
Is “off boobs” the opposite of “on boobs”? Asking for a friend, obviously.
I would assume they meant “of boobs”, but you present an interesting question of terminology. Unfortunately it begs the question, what exactly would we mean by “on boobs” in this context, so that we can question if “off boobs” is it’s opposite?
Also, boobs. The answer to boobs is usually yes.
Unless you’re gay
Why I said usually. Most gay men and most straight women are the exceptions.
I was telling my therapist that I wanna take shrooms only last evening. I have a bunch. They’re legal here. My partner works on Sunday and I have the place to myself. Hope she doesn’t get divorced. Lol.
Wow I would never admit “recreational” drug use of any kind to any medical professional. Many years ago I admitted to smoking marijuana to my doctor and it turned into a major catastrophe. They threatened to report me to law enforcement for using illegal drugs and kept extorting me with bogus bills for months afterwards. I never trusted any medical professional again. Fuck the bible belt.
I admitted to my primary doctor that I used MDMA, acid, mushrooms, and ketamine within the past 3 months. He didn’t even bat an eye, he was concerned of my drinking habits instead.
It’s just straight up illegal for medical professionals to report drug use in Canada. The government doesn’t want people to die because they were afraid to go to the hospital
That’s straight up illegal here in the US too. I don’t think OP was at a doctor lol
I’m currently growing my first batch, they are unfortunately not legal here 😅 They’re fantastic though. I’ve done shrooms twice in my life now and my depression and social anxiety are all but gone. I’ve got years of therapy under my belt too and without that the effect would surely not have been this noticeable but still. When you take them you never know what will happen. Most likely it will be amazing from start to finish but every now and then shrooms make you confront unpleasant things. Taking them was a way to prove to myself that I’m ready to confront my fears.
They just amplify what you’re feeling. Not in a good headspace? Stay away. Wanna confront that headspace? Buckle up and GL.
Also I’ve found while you can’t always directly control it the trip tends to follow your attention. At least in those stages where there still is a “you”.
For sure, emergency cartoons can and should be deployed in event of any immediate danger.
Bad trips do happen. But huge breakthroughs are possible, as well. Go in not seeking anything specific and just see how it plays out.
I will say this though, if you feel a bad trip coming, you have to surrender to it. Surrender to the fact that you are tripping balls, and that it’s is a finite experience, and that you’ll be ok. You won’t get in trouble, you won’t become crazy, and if you do? Fuck it we ball.
“Shrooms can’t kill you, they can only convince you that they can.”
Totally normal shroom experience. I once took a hero’s dose and spent 30 minutes thinking I was gonna die.
What’s a heros dose. I only did small amounts and it was long ago. Much better experience than I expected. Easier to snap out of than anything else. If your high on weed or drink you can’t really snap out. But with a low amount of shrooms I definitely could. Then go right back to wondering why all of the Scooby Doo characters are naturally occuring in the cement walkway while sitting on the stoop
According to the Psychonautwiki on shrooms (which is fairly reliable in my experience), anything over 50mg of psilocybin is a “heavy” dose. Trouble is, unless you can get your shrooms from a reliable source, guessing the psilocybin content is pretty tricky. The one time I intentionally did a pretty heavy trip on shrooms, it was something like a quarter ounce of dried shrooms, but another time I just had a nibble on one for laughs while drinking with my buddies and it wound up being pretty substantial. If they’re fresh instead of dried or just a different strain or batch, it’s all pretty up in the air, so my advice is to always be ready for a heavy trip unless you’ve already had some experience with that particular batch.
Yeah just be careful. There are instances of dudes whacking their weeners off with hatchets and one guy repeatedly headbutting his eyeballs onto pencils until he died on heavy psilocybin doses.
This sounds exactly like the lies anti-drug proponents tell to try scare people off drugs. Did you know there was a boy who died after injecting just one marijuana?
From the first:
This is the first documented case of Klingsor syndrome related to psilocybin, in which a psychologically disturbed person self-inflicts harm on their genitals. Plus the dude was already messed up and an alcoholic.
The second guy was on ADHD meds and hypertension meds:
Although some might be tempted to draw broad conclusions from this single case, it is important to understand the nature and role of case reports in medicine. Case reports are detailed descriptions of unusual or novel clinical events involving one patient. They do not establish cause and effect or generalize to larger populations.
It’s pretty common advice not to mix drugs unless you know what you’re doing, which is something that happened in both cases.
But the point is your “warning” is the same as telling someone about to drive or fly about the worst accident on their mode of transportation. It’s just a paranoid thought (and a dick move), not a reflection of reality.
A heroes dose/heroic dose just refers to doing a very high dosage of a psychedelic substance like shrooms.
https://healing-mushrooms.net/heroic-dose
I’ve always heard a good normal dose is an eighth. According to that article linked above, a heroes dose is 5 grams, or an extra 1.5 grams beyond that.
I had 7g once.
It was amazing, the visuals just took over my senses completely and when I came back, still tripping, I felt like I could telepathically talk to my friends lmao.
Glad you had a good trip! I accidentally did a heroic dose of acid back in 2016 and I have been leery of psychedelics ever since (though I have done shrooms and a few other research chemicals since then). I had 2x 130µG tabs of acid in my sock drawer for ~18 months that I didn’t store in the freezer or anything, so I figured their potency had diminished and decided to take both. Big mistake. :)
I wouldn’t consider that a heroic dose. People lie about potency of tabs all the time. I typically do between 250umg-350umg and I’ll get time completely stopping and rewinding. It seems like you just had accurately provided tabs and tripped hard. People do thumbprints of lsd between 10mg-15mg. 5 grams of mushrooms should be more potent than 300umg of acid with just standard cubensis.
I had .35 oz of mushrooms two days ago and I saw the faces and eyes of the God that lives in my solar plexus.
Fantastic experience. Scary as all fuck. But fun as shit. I just had a major change in my life and I always try to trip about it when I have time to think.
PSA this is a bad example of psychedelic use perhaps and definitely…uh … don’t do drugs kids
For the kids looking for a good use of psychedelics, the golden rule is to start low, increase potency slowly, and if you’re ever thinking you might have a dud, give it about 1.5 the amount of time it takes to really kick in before trying a second. If the second is a dud too, enjoy a nice day of sober relaxation in the environment you’d planned on being high in, the third try may very well be what gets you. Remember, once you take it, you can’t go back and take less and time to kick in isn’t always going to be the same.
4 mushrooms?
I don’t think that’s enough to feel anything at all other than the pain of having to taste them.
Saying 4 mushrooms means nothing, you need the weight. I’ve seeing 1 small P.E mushroom weigh 2 grams and that was a strong trip. If somebody ate four 2 gram mushrooms they would be extremely high.
2 grams dried? I wouldn’t call that a small mushroom. A 3.5g bag is usually a lot more than 1 or 2 shrooms. It’s a lot more than 4, too.
Depends on the type, that’s why counting the mushrooms isn’t a good measurement. The 2 gram mushroom I had was not big but really dense and was dried. I’ve also eaten 3.5 grams that was about 7-8 mushrooms.
Man I am so jealous of all the people having a good time with shrooms in here and not even cause I have bad trips but have basically no trip.
First time I took them I went for 3.5g and then ended up adding another 1.5g as I realized it wasn’t working. Second I made a 5g ginger tea. That was a bust. So third and last time I ended up doing a whole chocolate bar at 5g and then added about 2g of just straight shrooms… I had a single moment where I felt like I reached a truth about “now” and human inertia, as I just practically meditated. But otherwise I would say the experience was disappointingly sober. No trips, no visuals, nothing much.
Homie that’s a lot even for a seasoned user. Also you gotta be careful with those chocolate bars they usually are not psilocybin but they ACO Dmt. Take 1g of natural mushies on a sunny day 🌞 ❤️
Yeah. I am aware that it is a lot. Unfortunately having tried all ranges of products from chewing on penis envy to teas, I don’t think the sunlight is gonna make much of a difference.
But I will be more wary of the grey market bars for my friends that it works for. Thanks for the heads up!
You are not supposed to do champignons.
Are those the button mushrooms?
Now I’m hungry.
No trip here as well, I just got real sleepy
I didn’t expect to get randomly tired and I wasted an entire day I had off because I took them at 11am then I felt like a 350lb sack of potatoes and I just laid on my bed for the rest of the day.
Also no visuals or anything fun just sleepy.
Question: does caffeine work for you?
Cause now that I have more than just me as a poll, I’m allergic to benadryl, resistant to all anesthesia basically, and caffeine doesn’t make me hyper just speeds up my heart rate.
I think most of those I am alone in but maybe it’s brain chemistry from like depression or ADHD?Interesting; I was in hospital last year, opioid pain relief doesn’t work for me. They tried a few times at increasing dosages and it just does nothing.
Paracetamol works well, they tried ketamine and I told them to stop because it made me feel terrible.
Interesting that there seems to be a non insignificant amount of us.
Do you have any issues with other stuff like edibles or caffeine? Sorry if it feels like prying but a chance to find a correlary trend is just to fun to not take!
I have and take meds for ADHD so that could have something to do with it. Edibles usually give me a pretty great high but only if I take somewhere around 50-60mg. Caffeine doesn’t seem to affect me much at all, although I try not to exceed 200mg a day just to keep things safe.
It’s directly known that if you are taking an SSRI or an SSNRI basically fully blocks the effects of psilocybin and most other hallucinogenics.
Someone had once said it seemed like deep thinkers, it didn’t work on and I always wonder if it’s some combination of brain chemistry difference in ADHD or depression that makes it less effective in some others not even on them.
I had the same experience but with weed. I was super disappointed.
I can’t do shrooms either. I’ve tried a number of times from various sources and all I get is 10 hours of nausea and an overpowering urge to sleep but I can’t because I’m on shrooms.
The psilocybin pills worked for me, although I was microdosing them as part of a research study so maybe that was the difference. But Ive never had any issues with other psychedelis either.
Yeah I got nauseous pretty bad the first time with straight shrooms but I also tried wrapping them in slices of deli turkey and cheese which I do not recommend unless you are a dog.
I absolutely get the urge to sleep that’s the 3rd time symptom I got.I figure my body will be a research oddity at some point cause I feel lots of drugs have the wrong interactions with me. Maybe it’s a digestion or processing issue with the mushroom fiber.
The digestion thing is always interesting to me. I’ve been doing recreational drugs with the same people for close to 20 years now. Frequency down to about once a year at this point, but from when we were kids to now when we have our own, I’ve always been the one who comes up fast off anything we ingest, and my other buddy has taken anywhere from 30 to 90 (and sometimes more) minutes longer than me. He’s tall, but lanky. We’re built roughly the same. I guess that whenever the uptake starts to happen is just earlier a long in my process of digestion. We’ve got it down to a science now though, and I’m always last to dive in for an evening of letting the minds go.
