Tripping alone soon, need advice.

Planning on getting an 1/8 of cubes soon, and I'll be having my big 10th trip celebration. I will be doing them alone in my room, all other 9 times have been in my room as well, I have only ever tripped with myself and maybe a friend on skype.
It has been a few months since I have last tripped since I forced myself to take a break to try and take all I learned in. I think I am now ready to trip again and reach a higher plateau, now that I have a better idea of what's going on.
As for dosage I will be taking 2.5 grams to start, but I don't know if taking the leftover gram later will do anything, should I? And if so what time?
My trips usually consisted of me getting literally "Spaced out" where I felt like I was controlling my body from space, and lots of confusion and nausea. I am more on the sensitive side to shrooms so my usual doses are 2.0-2.5 but I have experienced intense hallucinations on Salvia, shrooms and other stuff so I usually can toughen out intense stuff. Like the time I accidentally made a tea with 3 grams instead of 2 when I was first getting into shrooming .
Should I eat them on an empty stomach? I don't mind waiting another hour to feel the effects if it helps take away some nausea. I usually end up getting these weird stomach cramps where I get really nauseous and I have to force myself to throw up, but usually nothing comes out but air like a dry heave mixed with a burp. This is a REAL buzzkill for my trips especially when you actually puke and the shrooms in it start talking to you, would eating some fruit or a salad help with nausea? I smoke weed to help it but weed usually puts a "twist" on the trip, I only like smoking right near the last 30 mins of a peak.
Music? I don't really have any good music for tripping, Shpongle excluded, but a good drum and bass or maybe some EDM would help me have a good time especially since I have rolled a few times and I can try and get into that mindset.
Any other males out there get weird "ball feelings"? I don't know sometimes they get super uncomfortable for no reason.
Is there anything special I should try visualizing for a special feeling? Or a certain thing I could watch that would just be awesome? Not head-fuck but awe-inspiring like watching those people who skydive in wing suits fly through tiny cracks in the mountain that's some crazy shit. Or a time lapse of clouds, something cool.
When I'm shrooming I noticed I'll want to do something ex: Watch netflix, play a video game, draw, write. But when I turn on an episode or get ready to do whatever I wanted, I will lose interest almost immediately. Are they any activities that seem to keep you guys occupied?
Thanks for the help in advance!

I am happy that you are about to take some shrooms 
If you are going to take 2.5 grams and 1 gram later it will not be as strong as taking 3.5 grams initially. The 1 gram you take later will come up against some tolerance.
Also if you don't take it on an empty stomach it will be significantly weaker.
If you take it on an empty stomach and just dose once, you will have much simpler data to work with in your reflections on your mushrooms experiences, in regards to dosage.
Consider using cannabis freely during the entire trip to battle nausea and help to get through tough experiences.
Tip: When taking a psychedelic dose smoke joints as soon as you notice the descent of the trip's veil.
I don't understand why people bring music into trips. It is a stimulus which lowers the power of the mushrooms to produce hallucinations. Why not just appreciate the art which will spring from your unconscious, or whatever, during the trip?
Hallucinogens are traditionally used in environments of minimal stimulation in the cultures which have a long history of use, and modern use of hallucinogens by western culture has followed this ideal as well (see Havlock Ellis).
A good formula to maximize productivity and efficiency is to take 5 dried grams in complete silent darkness, with cannabis to help out in sticky situations.
I think those uncomfortable feelings you are talking about is a result of the cns stimulation which comes with the shrooms. That restless feeling can be lessened by deep breathing and cannabis.
Have a good trip!

I personally don't feel like solo tripping is a bad idea. Maybe for a straight newbie or for someone who isn't mentally stable to begin with. if your semi worried about tripping alone, maybe inform a very trusted and liked family member or friend. Incase you get in a sticky situation you could ask this person to just come be with you or help or ect ect.
I love eating a meal via sandwich fruit whatever, before I eat Mushrooms.(avoid anything spicy or acidic) Helps with the nausea. Also I time my dose's. once I take my first dose I start a timer.(a 2 gram mush dose lasts me 4 hours) I feel the mush within 45 minutes to 60 minutes. If I want to go further I take the same amount of does as the first time at my 60 minute mark. I only redoes once however. So two doses a trip one hour apart. (anymore doses than that I start feeling a bit worn thin mentally)
As far as music goes, try looking into Kaminanda and Desert Dwellers. Both very good and very peaceful. But also like tripping dance music you know?
You can buy all of kaminanda's albums for a dollar a album through "bandcamp.com" if you have a debit/credit card or have paypal.
Wish you the best of luck Buddy. Stay safe and stay positive happy tripping

MAKE TEA with the full 1/8th and sip it slowly since it hits you really quick. Also listen to some Thriftworks. If that's too intense try some Tycho or Darkside.

Thanks for all the good vibes and suppport! I think I will make a tea with an 1/8 and drink it over the course of an hour? Maybe longer what do you think? The last time I drank tea I felt it in ~20 mins. Ill eat a banana or an orange right before I start just to ease the stomach a little.

Hahaha! I already planned on doing that, actually one time I was screwing around tripping and pretended to shoot what I said was heroin and it actually gave me a rush like snorting 20mg oxycodone(which I have done 30 mins after popping 10mg), I asked to try it out since I would never actually do it, was pretty cool. But I want to do more psychedelic things than jaw-clenching, bass boosted trap music, and menthol rub, I certainly hope the euphoria is there though.(And the eye wiggles, LOVE eye wiggles, especially when its the peak and you can't really control it)

Glass Animals album Zaba. Best tripping album imo

Plus I can't hold a conversation on psychedelics to save my fucking life. Someone will ask me a question and I'll just be like " yea I couldnndhdnsj Eugeyshdg jehndbdhdhkyyei" and they'll just look at me like so I've learned to go deep only when I'm by myself. This one chick wants to eat an eighth with me this weekend but she's realllyyyy new to tripping and doesn't really know what she's getting in to.
So she tripped last weekend at the lake which me and a few friends while I was on acid and She literally told me she never thought she would actually hallucinate on mushrooms. I was like ummmmm you've told me for like months that you use to trip every week and now you're telling me you've never even seen visuals off of psilocybin I told her what she ate were cubensis and she acted like they were the rarest mushrooms you could find so I told her they were the most common and her face just dropped haha

Yeah some of the most fun and deepest spiritual trips I've had were by myself. I certainty have never regretted it.
Psychedelic's usually make me crave solitude. I don't get much or anytime time to my self anymore. psychedelics have always been my escape,

SOOO, me and an eighth of mushrooms and eyeing each other right now, a day earlier than expected. I was planning on taking them tomorrow night, but I am prepared to take them tonight. I will be making a tea out of all 3.5 and I will try to post a detailed trip report.
I came into contact with a half G of coca, I don't plan on doing any during my trip, but I am curious what it would do, maybe I could try doing it near the end of the trip to provide research for other people who want to mix the two. I took 2 small bumps of the coca to test it out a little bit ago, it seems "clean" and not speedy like crap I have tried before. Would this impact my trip at all? I never do coke and I insufflated like .03-.08. The "comedown" wouldn't effect me as "Bad Mood" goes usually I feel almost better than baseline a few hours after some good coca.
Any last minute advice? I will start making the tea in about 3-4 hours. I should establish the 1 thing I want to come out of the trip with just in case it goes bad which I highly doubt. My goal is to come out of the trip with more respect for nature, other people and especially MYSELF. Also a deeper understanding of what "reality" really is. Mushrooms have shown me this before but I was naive and I didn't ignore the information but I was under the impression that it was just a "drug" I also had a hard time interpreting the information.
If there are any seasoned trippers out there who could show me their wisdom, I have a KIK and would like to discuss the psychedelic experience and where it can take me.

Don't mix coke an psyches.. think about how many people that shit harmed before it made it up your nose. Coke is also a huge ego magnifier, whereas shrooms are polar opposite.

people that do coke are so self centered and egotistical. One of my friends is into coke hard now and he's a fucking dick. Always acts like he's better than other people and only cares about money And his ego. It's like cocaine sucks all the enlightenment that you might have learned from psyches out of you
