Never shroomed, friend says to take 3.5grams?

My friend is buying 7 grams of shrooms and wants to split it with me, he says I should be able to handle it because I've tripped multiple times on 20mg doses of 2c-e. I'm guessing its a bad idea. What do you guys think? Is shrooming more prone to have a bad trip?

i personally say an eighth is a perfect first dose... my most magical, amazing and beautiful experience yet was my first trip and i ate a half an eighth... i rly wish i had eaten more.. i was so happy and pure feeling and in love with the world.... but it was short lived and i know less than it could have been
there will be people coming soon saying this is steep for a first trip and tell you 1.5-2gs... but i really recommend taking your friend up on it and going into it open minded, happy, and with stimulating things to do (go for a nice hike in woods you know, etc. just dont sit down and start watching a bunch of movies and shit) .... enjoy and be safe bro, welcome to a magical magical club.

You'll be fine.
The only thing that might cause you to have a bad trip is the attitude that you're gonna have a bad trip.

Assuming you are talking cubes, IMO that's a lot for a first time. Most of the posts I've read recommend 1 to 2.

You don't have bad trips on shrooms, especially not 8ths. You just get lame vibes. Nothing to freak out over, just change the situation you are in.
3.5 is an average dose. Its what I would take and go to the park to play frisby golf, or a light dose to take so that drinking and smoking and chilling with friends is cool.
I took 3.5 my first few times, then took 6, then 7 twice. All of those trips were awesome.

its not the drug, its you... are you in a good mood? you goin to a chill place to do them? Do you have a lot shit on your mind right now that might not be so plesent to deal with in a altered state of mind? if you have a bad trip its your thoughts and fears that will get you there. the mushrooms is just the power to your ride, its up to you to steer it.

3.5 is a great first dose imo. That was I took the first time, my girlfriend, my brother, his friends, my friends, and my dog. Everyone is fine as that dose as long as your a fairly level headed person.

3.5 is a heavy dose to me. My buddy took 3.5 his first time and his trip was very intense. Unless you're prepared for that then I would only take 2grams, thats my sweet spot. But the cubes we are getting are Penis Envys, so they are very potent, dunno what you got.

dude... if you were takin my shrooms.. i wouldnt reccomend any more than 2 gz for your first trip... your gonna be trippin' for at least 5 hours on 2 gz.. if you take an eighth your gonna be really trippin BALLS for the first 2 1/2-3 hours with heavy visuals, possible ego death,etc... imo it would be a bit heavy but you wont regret it when the trip is over.. take the eighth if you want the real full experience, less if you just want to see what its like....

after tripping for 10+ hours on 20mg of 2c-e, 5 hours seems really short

1/8th is perfectly fine. just listen to your friend, hes probably a good dude.
Dont fear mushrooms, 3.5 is a moderate dose at best. MY first trip was 4gs and i was just a kid, no negative effects because i wasnt told to expect negative effects

In the middle of the trip I was fiending for more and almost ate the entire bag (~12grams) and my friend didn't let me do it thank goodness 2 hours after that I was laying in the bathroom naked wanting to die.
First trips the best one by far. Go all out.

I did 2grams my first time and I honestly felt nothing special other than an enhanced weed high, and I smoked weed with it too. I took 5 grams my second time and it was amazing. Don't take low amounts of psychs, I think an 1/8th is a perfect amount to take for a first time, especially since you've taken 2c-e. I tend to think that 20mg 2c-e = about an eight of shrooms anyways (yes different trips, but intensity wise) so you'll be completely ready. Just don't over think it and have a good time.

Depends on your own sensitivity and the potency of your shrooms. Personally I am VERY sensitive and seem to need less and less to trip. Then to make matters worse (or better) I am supplied with well bred PE that is strong as fuck.
I rarely take more than 1.5g-2.5g of that shit. Last time on 1.5 I could not keep up a conversation at all, and at times could not see the room or the people in it.

I am sensitive to everything. But fuck it, my best friend has shroomed a couple of times and even though he's one of those people who takes drugs just to get "fucked up", I am pretty comfortable around him tripping. This weekend is gonna be

Personally, my first trip was 3g and was way more intense than any other doses I've done, assuming because it was my first mushroom trip. I'd recommend 2.5 personally, but I also think that maybe with the 2C-E experience you could handle an eighth.
Either way, happy and safe tripping my friend.

I took an 8th my first time. I say do it. If you lose control you'll just be better at keeping your cool in the future. Just take it in a good setting with one or two people you're comfortable with.

If you're in a familiar environment, 3.5 should be pretty mellow and still fun. I used to trip on acid before shrooms.... shrooms are way more enjoyable for me. And if you're used to acid, you can probably handle 4-6 grams of shrooms pretty easily.

I did a full 1/8th my first time and I had a blast! I would rarely ever take less than 3.5g actually. Anything lower than that is just masturbation and isn't really a trip, it's just more of a high. Threshold effects! Nowadays I don't take less than 5g if I really intend to trip.
A lot of people take 1-2g because they only want to get high, and honestly they don't like tripping, or they are scared to really trip. Tripping on shrooms is intense, chaotic and overwhelming. When you're really into a good shroom trip it's like a combination of love, fear, euphoria, and terror! In a GOOD shroom trip you'll be laughing and crying at the same time... completely out of your mind! If you're willing to let go and just experience what the shrooms have to offer then eat the full eighth. If you have trust in the shrooms, and you've got good SET & SETTING then the only thing you have to fear is your own mind.
But if you just want to get high, then eat like 2g. Or better yet just smoke some weed and give those shrooms to somebody who actually wants to trip.
As for having a bad trip. Shrooms aren't any more likely to give you a bad trip then 2c-e, or any other psychedelic for that matter. No drug GIVES you a bad trip. You give yourself a bad trip by the way you choose to react to the drug experience. Yeah, shrooms can be a little uncomfortable physically. They can make you kind of queasy. But so what, just push through it and before you know it you're way beyond caring about comfort because you're on a completely other level of reality from your body.
Sometimes they can be a little confusing and disorienting, and this scares people. That's why it's important to be in a safe place with people you trust. Because it's okay to be confused and disoriented, but if you are in a safe place of trust it doesn't matter and you don't have to panic. Just be confused! It's all good!
If you go in expecting all good feelings, euphoria and visuals, etc. then you might freak out when all of a sudden things get a little morbid or whatever. But I'll tell you up front shrooms can be a little heavy. Tripping in general is full of every emotion of the human spectrum, so you should expect it. If you start contemplating death and sad things, then fine, no biggy. If you start to get super introspective and start analyzing all your flaws then use that as an opportunity to make yourself better instead of running away like most people do.
anyways, yeah eat the whole eighth and have a good trip!

I beg to differ. My first trip on 3.5g had an extremely horrifying part. There are reasons for this, and I should have picked a better setting to improve the situation, but the point is that it's possible to have a bad trip on 1/8th.
That being said, it's probably not likely. Just pay close attention to your set and setting. My set was fine, but there were some issues I ran into in regards to setting.
