15 year old thread...
but since it has been bumped, figured I'd comment, just "for the record" lol.
People fainting on mushrooms is not unheard of, it happens from time to time, I see threads about this happening about once a month or so in TPE forum and have for years now.
I've experienced it myself and have seen it happen to a friend of mine....Often times the person also has some convulsions (convulsive syncope) and people start freaking out thinking they or their friend had a seizure, but convulsive syncope is not a seizure.
This is caused by low blood pressure/low oxygen to the brain...Mushrooms can make blood pressure all wonky...And when people start doing things like fasting, their blood sugar is low which can cause low BP...and when people smoke herb on mushrooms it can cause a drop in BP....
...basically various things contributing to low BP, and ultimately the person faints.
It happens sometimes .
I've become very familiar with the feeling of low BP...and if I ever feel it I sit down, follow my breathe, maybe eat a little something sweet and drink some water.

I've passed out once on mushrooms, an 8th at an indoor concert and once on lsd on the tail end of a hike. I think the mushroom passout was a panic attack and the one while hiking was probably due to low blood sugar cus it was followed by a crying spell and once I forced myself to eat some raisins I felt like I could move again without feeling dizzy. I always remember the cool guy that walked right passed me without a word while I was sprawled out on the trail

lol at the image I have in my mind about a fella walking down a trail and seeing some dude all sprawled out on the ground .
I've almost pass out/fainted on LSD once before years ago...It was while camping, a little high in elevation but nothing way up there (around 6500ft)...A friend and I had taken one dose, it was kinda a weak dose too...A couple hours after dosing I was walking down a trail with my buddy then out of nowhere my headspace got super spacey, I started to feel dizzy/lightheaded and had the cold sweats going on (classic low BP symptom for me), I probably looked super pale in the face too...I was sooo close to full on collapsing/passing out. I managed to sit down next to a flowing stream and splashed cold water on my face & around my neck while just trying to relax and breathe/follow my breathe. My BP seemed to slowly start to normalize after several minutes but it took a little while before I didn't feel any symptoms of low BP, I sat there for a bit before I dared standing up lol.
I've full on collapsed/fainted from just weed/hash before too....another time after having a few beers and smoking a few bowls.
And every time I have passed out/fainted, I experience some brief convulsions/twitching/shaking.

Amanita Muscaria always make me pass out on the come up and I wake up tripping in a confused delirium

Woodlovers are notorious for causing people to pass out, lots of the west coast crew report getting woozy from cyans and azures.
Nothing wrong with being mushroom drunk.
