First Experience with shrooms
#14012943 - 02/23/11 11:06 AM (12 years, 11 months ago) |

Well, yesterday I finally had my first psychedelic experience with shrooms. My friends and I each ate about 2 grams of dried mushrooms and I really enjoyed the experience. It was a pretty moderate trip probably a 2 or 3 though it is hard to gauge since this it was my first time..
Explaining the experience seems difficult to me but I will highlight some things that happened and some things I enjoyed.
At the beginning of the trip it was kind of odd but I kinda just let it happen and it was a good trip. While I wouldn't directly compare cannabis to mushrooms I feel that my extensive use of cannabis helped for some reason to control myself and have a good trip.
I really enjoyed the expanse in thought process. But I really enjoyed how emotional shrooms were. I felt like I could really relate to others and sense other peoples emotions. I understood how sensitive the mood is. When something happened that soured the mood I picked it up instantly and fixed it. I felt very at peace.
The mindfuck was kind of funny. I like that even if you say something that doesn't make sense no one cares and everyone is very matter-of-fact about everything. I got up to get a drink and for 5 minutes I forgot how. Also time and technology seem a lot more confusing..
Overall, I really enjoyed the experience and I am planning to do it again sometime. My first time was more "testing the waters" if you will rather than having a really profound experience. My next time I would like to dose a bit higher and lay in the dark and guide myself into a more spiritual direction, because I am very interested in such things.
Lastly, Thank you to everyone at shroomery for answering my questions and providing information to lead me to here, having my first psychedelic experience under my belt.

Whatever you do don't take more than 3 grams your next time. Shrooms get exponentially stronger as the dosage goes up. The the 4 gram trip is about 5 times as powerful as the 2 gram trip. A 7 gram trip is about 20x as strong as a 2 gram trip, and so on.
3 grams will be a big step up in terms of the trip, so don't go over board, you're still really new at this.

Thanks for that info. I was actually planning on doing more but I think it may be wise to have more experience before dosing higher. I didn't realize the potency increased that exponentially.

Like you said, I would gain more experience with mushrooms before you decide to lay in the dark, and think. Although You could do that as long as you had a "sitter". Make sure it's someone who knows the other realms of reality. So they can help the mushroom guide you into your spiritual realm. Now, I hate to tell you, NO TRIP IS THE SAME. Each trip is totally different. From ranging to your emotions, mental status, and other things. All the things you hear about. Magic mushrooms, can be a great thing. But use in moderation.. Make sure your taking them seriously. Because they will take you for a ride. Gain more experience before upping your dose. Hope this helps you!

I did 6 my second time was a bad mistake because i didnt know what i was getting into it was 12 hours long i would say lower doses are better for enjoyment and larger doses if you want a serious experience

Yeah I wasn't aware of that either at first, and found it out the hard way 
If you want to up your dose to get a little bit more of a trip, go with 2.3 grams. That will not be enough to overwhelm you and it will be a little stronger than the 2 gram trip u had. Should be what you're looking for, just don't go taking an eighth or more on your second time out. It would probably be to much for you, and go from being awesome, to "why did I do this to myself" 
I've done about 10 grams and had a level 5 trip, i've eaten 8ths and had uncomfortably strong level 3 trips. Personally I like to play around in the 2.4 - 2.7 range. I get a lot of visuals but don't get uncomfortably high. You can always smoke a little weed about 2 hours into your trip if you aren't rolling good enough. It will pick things up for you

I was his sitter for his experience. Was very mind set on never doing shrooms because the rumors of the highs freaking me out but seeing him and the 2 others on a low dose made me now consider it.

I feel like people are too cautious when they're giving advice to newbies. I took 3.5g my first time, and I loved it. Respect the substance, but realize yourself that nothing insane is going to happen from taking mushrooms. Your mind might get fucked, you might freak out, but you will sober up and return to reality... I've never felt like I had no control of my actions or my sanity in my 40+ trips, and some of those on pretty hefty doses. If you handled 2g well, I'd say 3.5g is your logical next step. Don't gradually build up to that point, just do it! Even 4g, or 5g (although I'd wait for a 5g trip after you've dosed 3.5g a few times) would be OK fairly early on IMO.

Your dose was responsible. Judging from your positive report and assuming that you're experienced with managing and internalizing your thoughts, I wouldn't see any danger in taking the whole 8th next time.
Just an observation; go at your own pace and report back frequently.

Someone hasn't read the "Fatal Trip Report" thread 
The one where two yahoo's took a huge dose on a cold day, both ended up out of control and ultimately naked. One of them woke up the other one didn't.
You also sound like someone who hasn't done over 10 grams before. You are dishing out some bad advice, work your way up, don't jump in the deep end immediately. Yes some people can handle it, but most CANNOT.

With every journey you take, the Psychedelic Allies will grant you more wisdom. Just remember, not all trips will be as easy, especially when you get into the higher doses. Don't be afraid, you can learn a lot from a heroic dose. Just be careful...

I have read that report before...and I find it a little outrageous. That's too bad that the guy curled up naked in the snow...but what the fuck? Even on a tremendous dose of shrooms I can't see how one would end up like that.
I'm not suggesting just jumping into the deep end, but 3.5g of cubes is no where near the deep end. 3.5g is like standing in chest high water.

If you haven't already, for an indoor trip - you might try setting up the perfect 5 hour long trip playlist that is sort of mapped to the trip - come up time, peak time, plateau time and come down time. (Definitely put Pink Floyd Dark Side of the Moon in come down time!) and then get a nice sound system set up, nice lighting and comfy seating and trip toys and just chill in the "tryptamine palace". That's what i did for my first few experiences and they were just amazing.

Ha yeah it was a bit crazy, but I believe it. When you take those super doses things will go awry. Why they thought it would be a good idea to dose then go driving I will never know 
3.5 would probably be more than the OP is ready for if 2 grams did that much to him, that's just imo though.

Yeah they made some dumb decisions...but you would think that the guy would have felt COLD! Even on a super duper high dose of shrooms...
I feel like 3.5g is the next logical step. It's really not THAT much. OP seemed to handle 2g just fine. It's a pretty decent sized next step, but I did 3.5g my very first time and it was awesome. You don't need to fear the shroom, just respect it.

No if you take over a certain amount you wont notice the cold, or be able to move either.
Take 10+ grams and you'll find out the hard way

I've taken almost the equivalent of 10g of cubes before, and I know what you mean about not being able to move... Although, I would think it'd take a while to DIE. I guess, if he laid down naked and then just passed out from the cold, then ya...what a sad story.

I will consider everyones words carefully. I do think I will does 2-2.5 next time regardless though. I will try doing an eighth when I feel I am confident with my experience with psychedelics. Thanks for the feedback everyone.

dont listen to some of the numbskulls asking you to go to 3.5g from a 2g trip. a safe way to increase your dose--and consequently the intensity of your trip--is to go by .5g increments.
this way you know your limits on the type of trip you want to have, yet not lose your head.
