is it safe to try mushrooms for the first time while taking abilify and Zoloft?
    #22153184 - 08/27/15 06:59 PM (8 years, 5 months ago)

I got diagnosed with bipolar unspecified, PTSD, generalized anxiety disorder, depression, and Ocd.I got put on Zoloft (100 mg) and abilifY (5 mg) 3 weeks ago and I'm doing great, problem is I REALLY wanna try mushrooms! but I'm nervous because ive researched online as to whether or not I should.do mushrooms.with these medications. Some sites say I shouldn't others say it's fine and others Say I won't even trip. I'm terrified of having a bad trip or permanently losing my mind. I'm going to do a very small dose of mushrooms, so maybe that'll lower the chances of anything bad happening? I've heard stories of people trying shrooms one time and being permafried or going psychotic and it just scares me I need a clear answer as to whether or not I should do this

I doubt you'd be able to trip on that high of an SSRI dose, and due to the possible emotional upheaval if you did, I'd recommend waiting. Give yourself some time to heal, mushrooms can be demanding and unpredictable.

Will nullify your trip or most of it. Work on getting healthy first then trip whenever your doctors have decided you can stop the medication.

When youre taking psychedelics I would say there is always a chance of HPPD (Hallucenogenic Persisting Perception Disorder) but I dont think the medications will increase this chance. I would definitely wait a bit for your mind to heal some more and then trip. Mushrooms can be pretty unforgiving if you take them in a bad mental state. I hadnt taken mushrooms in over 3 years because of 2 back to back bad trips, luckily a couple weeks ago when I took them at a Phish show I had a great time. Its all about the mind set youre in.

Psychedelics can bring out under lying mental conditions, but they won't permafry you or whatever. It's not like you'll think you're a glass of orange juice or something :dontspillme: :lol:

But in reality, it's best to try and work through the majority of your mental conditions before trying to dabble with psychedelics. I was diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder after a few month psychosis.(it was around 2 years ago, maybe a bit more) First time I took mushrooms, I was still experiencing mini-episodes of depression and schizophrenia. The mushrooms launched me into sanity from there. I haven't felt depressed or heard voices for around a year now. But even with my experience, I can't really give the reccomendation for you to trip, as I wouldn't want to be the cause of something going bad.

Also with your medication, it'd be very hard to trip and actually feel something. You'd probably need to stop taking it at least a few days before hand.

Abilify will absolutely nullify the effects of the mushrooms.  So long as you're taking those drugs you won't be capable of tripping.  Fix your problems and get in a good place with yourself and think about tripping later on when you don't need to be on powerful antidepressants.  These drugs aren't going anywhere.  :shrug:

seconded

I'm on Abilify 30mg (equivalent) at the moment, about all you'll get is a strange sort of 'oh look im mildly high on something' feeling, and you'll get a cold feeling, and if you take a super high dose you'll get all this plus dilated pupils making you think maybe you're tripping a little bit but it's just more light getting into the eye.

:thumbdown:

Meth still works. :lol:

If the doctors had their way, he would never get off the meds.

I feel bad for those who are prescribed antidepressants, because who knows when they will ever stop taking them, and I bet they're damn expensive.

I have a coworker who takes an SSRI, and when he doesn't take his meds, he becomes very angry and aggressive and gets the shakes. Keeps him from working when he doesn't take them.

But, I guess some people need them, or whatever.

Good luck OP, whatever you decide to do, just be safe.

Yeah, I don't believe in the effectiveness of SSRIs and find that for me personally psychedelics are a way better antidepressant than anything big-pharma has to offer, but without going deeply into why a total stranger is taking anti-depressants in the first place I'm not one to question their decision.  :shrug:
