there are plenty of brilliant minds rearing to do these types of studies but they are vastly limited in what they can do. it's sad really, that politicians, drenched in ignorance and willing to go any shameless route they need to in order to get votes, get to tell scientists what they can and can't study. it's such a huge crock of shit... check out MAPS for more info.

Why are theyre people that voted for, anything under 19? i thought that was how old you had to be to get on this site. and i dont understand why shroomery doesnt include teenagers. Thats when they start to get into psychedelics and canabis.

Only tripped about 9 times but, how I see things has literally changed. Driving down the street I used to look at houses and buildings, but now I don't even notice. Instead I'm checking out the plants and trees.
Trees and plants seem to be much more exciting. I mean they look different. Its like a switch flipped in my brain and my entire world is much more exciting.
I'd compare it to being blind and being able to see again but I've never been blind.
Has anyone else had this eye opening experience?
It started right after my first time.

Yeah, man. I was opened up way more to nature after my first trip. I was 18 just laying on the grass in May, dew just soaking my shirt and I was just like... "nature, man. it's beautiful". And I watched the world for about 2 hours from that grassy spot.
Now every time I trip, only about 8 times since then, I always take time to look at trees and really appreciate that they've been around for so fuckin' long. A lot more when I'm sober too.

I must add that although I had a 'flashback' twice, these where not unpleasant experiences. I contribute these experiences to new insights my mind has gained through mushroom use. On both accounts I was a bit tired, and there where slight visual distortions similar to those in a trip. Which I could evoke by concentrating.

The problem I see with the poll is that all of the questions address mostly negative things.
For me, I feel level headed for about a week after a good trip, and often I find myself not smoking weed (daily smoker) during those times.
While I am tripping, I am talkative, insightful and often find myself assessing much of my life and the conflicts present in it.
Ive never experienced flashbacks, fainting (never heard of anyone doing that, or many of the things listed).
Most people will vouch for the way I feel, and I think that if you do not get these positive experiences from tripping then you should stick to other substances.
I have recently started tripping again (after a 3 year hiatus), and I am so glad I did. It is probably a good time in my life for it. My mood has completely changed for the better, as well as my social interactions and relationships. My head is clear and I can focus easier on assignments and anything else that requires it.

the answer is simple. liability.
if you provide information on drugs, or cultivation to a teenager and their parents find out, what do you think happens? a campaign against the shroomery.
the clause is there just so the shroomery can say "Well, our terms of service specifically states no minors are allowed to join." This washes the shroomery's hands of any liability.

This was a good survey- on a place like this its nice to see a big 'n' population for results. One limitation in this is that it is a study of a very specific subgroup (people on a drug forum). This could skew the results given that we can assume those on the shroomery are at least a little more informed than your general individual.
Nice job. It is very interesting to learn more about this community.

I really like this poll. I put that I use weed almost daily, although I haven't in the past 6 months, but I also haven't tripped in longer than that. During the time I was tripping though, I used weed almost every day. I don't feel that tripping has negatively affected my life overall; for a couple days after the trip, I usually feel a little fried, like my brain and body are trying to reset themselves.
Overall, I think tripping has made me a better person, even the more negative trips. I think if you go through something like that, and come out fine on the other side, it's only going to make you stronger.

As to flashbacks, Salvia to me is of way greater concern that serotonin psychedelics. With my limited salvia experience I had several clearcut Salvia flashbacks - and none on almost 250 trips in 16 years.
I agree that Salvia is a much greater concern. But I don't see flashbacks as a problem at all. When I'm tripping is when I'm truly sober. It's when I have no fears, no limitations. Peace. true Spiritual Peace. I've never had a bad experience tripping. So a flashback to me is just a glance back at a wonderful moment in my life. Idk. To each is own I guess.

I haven't really tripped on shrooms much, only half a dozen times.
It's been about 3 weeks since my last trip.
In the last few days, I've been getting a really strange sensation, quite noticable, several times a day.
It feels like the very start of coming up, a little 'dizzy'. It lasts maybe 10 minutes, then I'm fine for a few more hours. I think I'm getting very minor visuals, things seem a little wavy for a second, but I'm not sure if I'm just imagining it (well, I'm imagining it anyway, but, you know)
It's a bit annoying, but isn't really anything strong, but noticable. I've never had anything like this before tripping, and I'm not (nor have I ever) been on medication for anything.
Honestly, I'm worried if I trip more, then it might get stronger. Though I have far too many shrooms to waste, so it probably won't stop me, all my trips have been awesome - with friends or solo

Haha, well I'm not sure about that for an explanation :P
But I definitely feel physically different now than I did a month ago.

I took a hit of mescaline at a local music festival last Saturday, I'll post the trip report soon. But since that trip I haven't felt quite the same, I've seen grass shifting out of the corner of my eyes just a few days ago. And I still am in a very odd state of mind compared to what I was before. I can't say I'm really upset about it though, I feel more at peace than I have ever before. I can't wait to try mescaline again.

Is this really an adverse effect in that case? From the sound of it, you are experiencing what many people call the "Afterglow".

I wouldn't think an afterglow would last that long, I still feel as weird as I have since then.
