Figured I'd bump this since there are 3 threads on page 1 of TPE today asking for advice for first timers. So instead of replying to each individually, I thought it'd be helpful to bump the 'ole thread...

I saw Humility post this in a News thread and thought maybe this was important enough to add in here...Someting I had totally forgotten about Hot/pointy/sharp objects...
Quote:
Humility said: I can't see how it'd be a good idea to be tripping around a loaded firearm.
Kinda falls into the category of pointy/hot/dangerous things. I do enjoy fire while tripping but I keep it WAY safe and never allow things to burn for a MOMENT more than I'm willing to observe it while happening.
I tend to stay away from large bodies of water while tripping as well. The bathtub is good enough for me ^_^.
Hot/Pointy/Sharp things - This one should go without saying, but due to an article that popped up in the News section http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/14627179#14627179 I figure I will throw in an extra section here. THERE SHOULD BE NO UNLOCKED WEAPONS AVAILABLE TO TRIPPING PEOPLE. Sure there are cowboys who can successfully mix six-shooters and LSD, but...the potential for danger is real, so you'll want to exercise extreme caution with anything that is Hot, Pointy, Sharp, and of course, loaded weapons of any kind (crossbows, guns, tanks, anti-aircraft missiles - okay getting very Apocalypse Now! here...). I don't think this section needs much more details, this is very self-explanatory. Please be safe.

Why doesn't someone put all of these great posts and make them part of the Experience FAQ?

Im gonna have to bump this. The advice given by OP is right on the money, but I want to add the power of being exposed to water at shroom peaks (the mindset of being in the safety and enveloping warmth of the womb is incredibly calming during ego loss), and the infinitely rewarding benefits of exercise during a trip, shrooms or lsd. Your body offers so many endogenous drug cocktails, FORGET BOUT BENZOS. I have never had a bad trip when I've begun my trips on a bike, with my favorite music.
Self medicate, endorphins, adrenaline, and lactic acid are your friends on psychedelics and they can help take you to a beautiful place, as well as regulating any anxiety or negative feelings. Think of prehistoric man hunting while on shrooms, experiencing different natural scenery, exerting himself. Also, the power of redosing, esp with shrooms. Get into a good set and setting, start small with your dose, do a booster dose, ride out 4 hours or until you start coming down, then take more. IME, easing into this world gives space to your mind to integrate, and adapt to the experience, and multiple peaks give way to more positive revelations when you're doing the right thing.

Thanks very much for the input quencho092, that is exactly the type of community creation I was hoping for The more people that share helpful tips the better.
Earlier today drr posted a link to an Erowid guide for first time psychedelic users and it looks like it was written by the late Bob Wallace. I believe he owned a placee called Mind Books before he passed. This could be total mis-information, but I believe he was also a Microsoft millionaire, and put a lot of his resources back into the community, I believe he was a also a regular on the old school Mushroom Cultivation news groups (similar to a forum, but like alt.musroom.cult or something like that, and people would post Q & A)
Anyway, link to their cool guide;

Not to be condescending or anything, but it makes me sad to know that so many people take these drugs and have a bad time, or they miss out on the revelations of the wonders of life and what it is to be yourself.
I have no problem with people who just want to see shit and LOL, but I've seen these people eventually have horrendously bad trips. People in relationships taking shrooms thinking it's gonna be like a theme park of fun, and they end up just seeing everything that's wrong in their lives instead with no preparation or foresight, and no idea how to seek their personal ecstasy by feeling the oneness and paradoxical uniqueness of all life on this earth. I want to see more people using psychedelics in ways that enhance their lives, not in ways that make their lives into a nightmare from hell because they think it's a care free party drug (Psychs can be amazing party drugs if you obey who you are within).

I'd have to second the sharp objects one. Although I haven't tripped before, this one time I got really high and drunk and tried to make an incense holder with a swiss army knife.... Ouch. Must have dug 2/3 mm into my thumb

I have never tripped before, but I read every word of this post.
I have been on this site for a few months now researching and learning a lot but I still feel like I gained some very good insight by reading this guide.
Thanks OP!
Bump for great justice!

I thought I've posted in this before but I guess I haven't. One of the best posts on the Shroomery. Sticky-worthy.
Thanks dw.
