Mushrooms Give Me a Sudden, Uncomfortable Head Rush...
    #10560724 - 06/23/09 06:12 PM (14 years, 9 months ago)

When I take mushrooms, during the trip, even on low doses, I get a sudden weird rush / flash of something in my head.  It's generally so intense that it causes me to gasp, and I am unable to speak.  It only lasts for about one second, but it happens frequently every time I am on the drug.  It is neither painful or pleasuring, but sometimes is sometimes annoying and worrisome for me (especially in a tripping state of mind). 

What is this effect? Does anyone else get it?

I've never heard of mushrooms affecting anyone else like this, and I couldn't find any archived thread about it.  One friend I was doing it with suggested that it is serotonin related- perhaps a rush of serotonin in my brain.  This wouldn't surprise me because it reminds me of the brain shocks that I got when I withdraw from SSRIs (Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors).  But like I said, it's not really painful or anything- just annoying.

Anyone even heard of this?

Weeks???!  Does it eventually completely subside?

Any ideas on why?

I get it right when I'm coming up on the shrooms...sometimes during the trips, too. I know exactly what you're talking about. Sometimes it's accompanied by nausea, depending on the dose and tek used to ingest them..

It could be a direct effect on more serotonin being released in your brain, since the same thing can happen to me on MDMA when I take waterfall hits or gravity bongs...

or it could be a change in blood pressure. Either way, it explains the feeling. Sometimes I get the same feeling when I'm sober or when I've only been smoking marijuana from time to time. So I'm more inclined to think its a change in blood pressure.

I used to get this (very rarely) while trying to fall asleep, before ever experimenting with psychedelics. Just as I could feel my self start to fall asleep, I'd get a sudden popping sensation in my head accompanied by a loud bang and sometimes a flash of light. I've had it happen a few times recently on shrooms, especially when I'm tired before taking them. Aparently it's to do with your brain thinking it's asleep prematurely or something. I read somewhere else that it's a focal seizure but I doubt it..

I like the feeling! It's like a mini head-masturbation for me.
  What really makes it happen for me is moving my eyes suddenly.
Does anyone feel like their going to yawn, then all the sudden you gasp for air? It's almost like the mushrooms are telling me to "breathe damnit!"

Folks on here who've discussed it, myself included, call it the "brain buzz" (search for it).

I like it a lot, myself. Sometimes you get it, sometimes you don't. I was lucky enough to have it happen repeatedly for like half an hour.

Every once and a while I'll swear it happens to me even when I'm not tripping. Only when I'm falling asleep or waking up.

Happens to me all the time when I smoke high quality far sativa leaning buds. One time it happened to me so bad when I was tripping on mushrooms after I got sprayed by a bug that wasn't there that I fell down and was confused for a very long time.

for me it's like an electric shock and in my mental picture I see a white flash.
  Its almost orgasmic but at the same time kinda scary.  Every time it happens I get the feeling if I were to let it ride and push it past a certain point I could pop out of my body.
  Once when it happened I though I could see into another dimension or something. It was like everything in that dimension was given the Photoshop plastic filter.
  But then as soon as it happened it was gone.
  I do like it when it happens though :rockon:

So I shall embrace it, and my uniqueness, and hope that it is not early signs of susceptibility to serotonin syndrome.
