Was it the shrooms?

Yesterday was my first experience with an eight of mushrooms, and it didn't go so well. I couldn't feel it as much as I wanted to.
I first took 1 gram, thinking that that would be enough. Nothing was happening, and I was sitting there waiting for something to happen. I then took another gram, maybe more, and went outside by the dock and ships, waiting for something to happen. The only thing I could notice was very unnoticeable movement when I looked at the concrete. I think it was because I was thinking to hard and expecting something out of it. I was very happy, and I was thinking positive but it felt natural and I think it was me being excited for what I thought I was going to experience. Then, I came home, and took the rest. That's when I started to feel something. It wasn't very strong, but it wasn't the typical "drug" high I was expecting. I couldn't think straight. There were no visuals. I knew I had to do something and I was scrambling around my room but I wasn't sure what it was that I had to do. I decided to take out my camera and watch some videos I had took. You can't make the video full screen, but I was still looking for a way to make it take up the whole screen of the camera. It felt like when you stoned, and you eventually forget what you are doing and get distracted and just sit there thinking of nothing, then eventually realize what you were doing. I kept telling myself to get my shit together and do something, like make my bed, or put my camera back in its case and in the drawer, but even that took me a while to do and I kept getting distracted. Every once in a while this feeling would go away and come back. It felt like I was receiving so much information and I was just sitting there trying to figure out what I'm supposed to understand but I still couldn't think clearly and was confused as to what I'm supposed to think about. I wasn't exactly sure what I was feeling, I was trying to put my finger on it but I couldn't. It seemed to complex for my brain to understand. All my thoughts were contradictory. It felt like I understood them but at the same time I didn't. Music didn't sound different, I was laughing occasionally because I was happy but I still think that it might have been me expecting something bigger and being excited for it.
Was I feeling the effects of my mushrooms? And for a stronger experience, should I take them all at once instead of throughout the day? I'm still really confused and upset that I didn't get to experience it.

Yeah, it's because you spaced it out like that.
After you first ingest any psilocybin mushrooms, your tolerance SKYROCKETS after like an hour. So if you ate a gram, waited an hour+, then took more, you're not likely to feel any more effects unless you eat a shitload.
Next time eat the entire 8th at once, you won't be disappointed

The first time I tried shrooms, I had a similar experience. Everyone warned me to not take the full 8th so I spaced the doses apart. Man, did I regret that! It was like I was caught in a half ass trip and my normal self. After that, I learned to eat at least an 8th at once for a full blown trip.
Next time, take a full 8th and have a goal set in mind for what you want out of your trip. Smoke some herb and listen to good tunes. You will be in complete heaven

Great to hear! I just thought I had some weak ass shrooms. Next time, I will take the full eight and sit back for the ride. 
Also, would I be functioning in a quiet public place? I'm always paranoid at home so I wouldn't think that it would be a good setting.

yup it is much better to eat your entire dose at one time rather than spacing it out. i would suggest taking 2 grams but 3.5 is not a super heavy dose. just keep it under 5 for now

If you think you would be more comfortable outside of your house, go for it. Just make sure it's a place you feel safe at. But keep in mind you don't know how your body will react to the full 8th at once. I recommended a private place somewhere out in nature where no one will find you

sounds scary.. "where no one will find you"
like shrooms are a portal into the afterlife and no one will be able to grab you before you warp there.

Imo, It's only scary if you make it scary. I am always able to control myself on an 8th. If you have a sitter or are with an experienced tripper, I don't see any harm. But if you plan on doing them alone in nature, I would peak in the house then find somewhere private once you know how it's affecting you.
Idk, if he doesn't feel safe in the house what place could be better than nature? I guess it just depends on the person but I love nature tripping solo.

Lol, just bring a tent while you're at it. Safe and tucked away from spiders Besides just become one with your surroundings and talk to the insects maybe they have something important to tell you..

I have spread it out like that too and it doesn't seem to be a huge overload like if you take it all at once....The first time I did them I only did half though and started freaking out because I thought it was going to be easy to handle, but then when I thought about why I was feeling shitty I took more of it and felt really relaxed and open and ended up really enjoying the second dose. I spread it out like that again and it was quite different. I was coming up on the second dose and walking and there were some negative thoughts about it not getting any better which it wasn't. My friend took them all at once that time and he was like laying in the leaves out of his mind haha.
