if after taking a drug you dont feel good , it has alot more to do with YOU than the drug "most" of the time
and I would argue that our culture makes people introverted, and paribiod and lazy etc etc (all the other things you guys seem to think weed causes)
I went to a great hemp rally may4th and I am going to another one july 1st ! I dont plan to get stoned and be introverted ! !

I dont know how much you can recommend drugs in general, I thought pot was the easiest thing to handle for everyone because I dont get paranoid AT ALL and I enjoy the feeling, though that was only after 1-4 joints my body "learned" to enjoy it. I smoke alot and I never get paranoid. Now after reading your post Demiurge and others I take the assumption now more openly that people react quite diversly to drugs in general. (edit: which was already stated) Shrooms on the other hand are a much more intense and enjoyable for me when Im at the peak, however in the end I usualy feel pretty horrible, depressed and my body becomes cold, clamy and sweaty as the side effect, but I dont think horrible and depressed can describe it right, you really have to feel it to know how horrible it feels (but thats just me ofcourse). But I still think its worth it as a learning experience of how the mind works in some way or another and ofcourse because it feels really good at the peak.

Well, i'm here.
I started this thread a couple days ago because I was planning to eat my first dose in the next days. Since I really hate pot, i was doubtful about shrooms.
I did my dose and the result : that was really enjoyable!
Lemme share in brief for those who are interested. If yur not, get outta here and go get the latest Radiohead, it's kinda good.
I had the perfect setting for this first experience. I was in nature, in a little *chalet* next to a beautiful lake. I forgot my scale for this weekend and took around 3.0 g of Tapalpas, Matias Romero and Koh Samui. I had to mix them up cuz my individual cakes didn't fruit that much, eh eh.
It took me more than an hour to start feeling something and honestly, I can't remember when exactly I was sure to be tripping on mushrooms since I was drinking Porto during the whole evening. After 2 hours, I was feeling quite drunk but realized that wasn't due to the alcohol (seems like shrooms amplifie drunkness).
During the whole night, I was speaking with my gf. I was quite lucid and able to have some good conversations. She also ate 3 grams but she got sick and vomit everything. Too bad for her.
In brief, while speaking with her, I was on a good vibe, nothing more. Sometimes, I was going in the forest to get some more wood for the fire and everytime I was going alone, in the woods, my trip was getting 10 times better! I was feeling the trees in a wonderful way. I was able to get some nice visuals while watching the stars. I was also hearing the trees trying to communicate with me, that was weird but enjoyable. I also had a fuckin nice experience watching ants working near their nest.
The most fucked up thing that happened to me during that trip was at the end. I was still tripping on shrooms but quite tired too. I went in the woods for the last time and couldn't resist the temptation of observing the trees for minutes, in silence. I was suddenly impressed by the *force* and power they seem to hold into them and tried to feel it by convincing myself that * I * was also a tree. I was looking at this giant tree, feeling it, slowing myself to imitate him, etc. Then, I lost my ego for a couple of seconds. For 3 seconds, I felt like my soul was detaching from my body (intense feeling of lightness, etc...) At this very moment, I heard a loud noise in my head (sounded like a bee or something) and then I woke up. I stayed there, in front of the tree and did it again. I was once again losing my mind and heard again that buz that woke me up. I then decided it was enough and got back home thinking of this weird but enjoyable experience.
In brief, that was my first trip. I learnt that to get the most of a trip, I must listen to it more. Talking with someone is great but it tends to block the visuals and deep feelings. I should also not be drinking on shrooms to better understand their action.
that's about it.
adi0s!

I don't think alot of the people here understand fully what you are saying about why you dont smoke pot, from what you said it sound like you have the same problem as me it is very hard to describe and few people understand fully. I have seen people on the shroomery say they have this problem with weed but have never actually met anybody in person who becomes depressed like me from smoking weed. Out of my own interest i have some questions for you.
1.You say that you live in Canada, do you live in B.C.?
2.About when was the time where you started getting depressed when smoking weed?
when I smoke weed i start thinking about things like 3.-a conversation i had just seconds ago, or weeks ago that seemed absolutely normal and rational at the time and think I said something that i didn't even think about and start thinking i said something sooo stupid 4.-feelings of wanting to go anywhere or do anything because im an idiot (last time i smoked weed i was seriously considering cancelling my trip to new zealand) 5.-even my best friend and girlfriend dont really like me and think im an idiot 6.-my night is completely ruined I have none of these thoughts when i am not smoking weed
6.Have you done any other drugs(besides mushrooms)? if so did you first try them around the time you started feeling depressed when smoking weed (I have this theory about coke)
If you dont want to answer any of these questions on the forum just pm me
-------------------- Go through the orange yesterday I watched intently for a while to both sides, infront of me and behind me. I was impressed to learn there was another way to look... UP! More impressive still was the fact that there were beautiful stars in this direction Most amazing fact of all was the prospect of another direction when I was done with up. DOWN! Which, based on the feel through my toes would be a fine sandy beach!

Weed started making me depressed about last Christmas. I don't even know why... it might have been all the times I had gotten paranoid stoned by myself, or just cuz I was I got depressed at the time. I don't think you can blame a drug for being depressed, but certain drugs can amplify different emotions within you. People who are more likely to become introverted, depressed or wary of others (paranoid) will get a lot worse with pot. These same people might love mushrooms for their creative input and healthy spin on life.
For me, the pot thing has really ruined my social life. All my friends smoke pot A LOT, and when I do it with them I act nervous and twitchy, and they think I'm a freak for it. Stoners never consider the fact that pot is a drug... for them it's life.

shrooms: special enlightenment tool weed: everyday mind expander.
And no, hating pot decreases the chance you enjoy shrooms but by no means does it eliminate the chance. It is still very likely shrooms could be for you!

i do not enjoy pot. i do love psilocybin.
i've never understood what's wrong with replying to old threads. seems way better to keep one old thread alive than a new one every week with the same old topic! threads would acquire encyclopedic depth and quality instead of varying with the level of bake and redundancy tolerance of this or that week's active posters.

necromancing threads causes confusion. this is a discussion forum. threads are individual discussions. if there hasnt been a post in a thread for 6 years, that means the conversation has been done for 6 years. let it die.

Depends why you hate pot
If you hate pot because it makes you anxious or paranoid then generally - though everyone is different - you will not like shrooms. You'll find the come up apprehensive at best and, though you may really enjoy the peak, you'll be so shaken by the early part of the experience it'll eclipse it for you.
But anyone can enjoy psilocybin in the right settings. Just need to find out what they are.

my beef with pot is its tendency to make me feel like a spectator; I just sit back watch and laugh at everything. That's fine and ok if that's what I'm up for, but a lot of ppl do it way too often and, while I know everyone is different, I see it as a huge financial drain compared to the "special", occasional fungal ventures. I feel like more social and active, in general, with duh fungus.

For everyone who says they don't like weed because it slows you down, you've apparently never smoked good (or even decent) headies. Don't get me wrong, there are plenty of super dank indica (body high) strains, but headies don't slow you down. In fact there are lots of sativas (head high) that I feel I function better on that when I'm sober...almost like coke or something.
