But it's the same with tv and computer
Before I tripped I had a 42" tv, now I got a 24" crt
before I tripped I had the newest watercooled pc, now I got 2 15 year old ones - that I got for free
Less technology addicted, I can use anything, and they do the job fine But I still got my tv that I need to repair, it died
All my electronics died at once , somehow..., computers and tvs
Rather have houseplants and pets, than all that technology, but I'm not technology scared I just feel bad about bringing a phone around with me at all times , especially a new modern phone
Because it means I'm online 24/7, not enjoyable
Would never have given it a thought before tripping... before I thought it was good to be online as much as possible, visacard, 3g on laptop and phones, biggest tv etc. :-) biggest is best etc. - to some extent before
Our attachments to things consume us quickly, even people who are not very much into things once they get one thing they want more quickly
At least I know my attachments now, so I don't crave them so much anymore when I know how much misery they can bring, being online all the time is misery

Shamans crave less phones and more rain forests ;-)
and people connected to their emotions instead of gadgets

I hate seeing other people using phones when I'm tripping. Like my sitter or a friend. Like we're not on the same wavelength

what a truly lovely conversation
i came back a day or two and didn't see the convo 'til now 
in reply to the question, who did I call, tell all,
i partly only made this from an experience when a friend was on shrooms,
one of my friends' experiences led to this, hehe
so i made this.

When I'm tripping alone I quite like being able to talk to people on my phone (As difficult as it is lol). Though this gets impossible past the 300/400ug mark for me.
Just put it on silent, and play music through something else.

Yea ideally you are right.. Preferably a high quality sound system and some trippy music. I listened to Barry Brown in Dub last time
But if you are walking around on shrooms in the forest as Im sure many of us do ... just make sure your headphones agood quality and your music is positive .

LOL! Best "tripping" story I've read in years. Must have made the right move if you've been hitched for the past 27 years Congrats!

I never keep my cell off because people who may be in an emergency and need to contact me, are more important than me having an undisturbed trip
-------------------- On the ground you lay, with your dogs you pray, at a neon hieroglyph sky you gaze Hugging your mind, praying to survive, feeling the love of the hieroglyphs in the sky We all need more love, and mainly less hate Hate is the blind that covers the heart's eye That makes the heart's eye cry Locked deep away in the skies of our minds It's all in the mind

I use my phone for youtube and music when im tripping. However on lsd, Its really hard to see the screen so I normally shut it off.
