Man up by staying awake all night sober, jittery and feeling empty? Sure, have fun with that. I like sleeping when it's bed time and waking up refreshed.

Really, you're going to resort to name calling..? Haha. How childish. I fully understand what you meant. By ending a trip I meant THE END of a trip. Maybe my wording was a little confusing but still...

In all honesty, I can't imagine having so much free time in life to be able to do psychs as much as some here do. My weekends are so tied up with positive normal things like going to kids/ grandkids soccer games, baseball games or having dinner with family or friends. Doing yardwork, reading, playing guitar...just normal fun life stuff. When I trip, i make it a whole day or night when I can pay attention to nothing but where the psychs take me...with little or no interference from outside sources....this time is sacred to me. I just can't imagine that tripping every single weekend or even more-often (not sure how that could be accomplished with a full time job or school) can be good for your overall psyche. It takes balance and integration into real life circumstance....not meant to overrule normal healthy life. I think tripping that often is just setting yourself up for depression at least on some scale.
I don't mean to sound condescending, but there is more to life.

Yeah dude, I agree. At my busiest I may go 6 months without a trip, at best I can sneak a trip in once a month. Even then, I don't necessarily have time to spend 12+ hours high so If I take acid in the early evening I'll have to cut it short with a benzo to sleep by 2am so I can function with the family and continue to be a productive member of society. All the 20 something party animal unemployed bachelors who trip all the time can boast about how they'd never end a trip early all they want, if they stick with the hobby for another 10-20 years they'll be singing another song when old age hits, lack of sleep tears you up and real life gets in the way of tripping time.

I don't think anyone here is boasting..? If anything most folks here are saying moderation is key and have learned that through experience. Get off your high horse pal.

This sounds pretty boastful, IMO. I take my trips seriously, dose high take it like a champ and honestly at least on acid I am still having fun when I take my benzo and could easily keep going, it's just that sometimes duty calls and real world obligations are always more important than drugs. I don't need to hear some kids saying it's a cop out or bad form to do what I want and need to enjoy my trip.
I actually like voodoo but he has a major problem with getting on the "my drugs are better than yours" highhorse and I've heard his line of bullshit a few too many times to care much for the chestpounding bravado that accompany his diatribes against the evils of mixing other drugs with his sacred mushrooms and will always take a stand against that kind new age hippie dogma.
Reading back your post wasn't offensive, but if you get butthurt of someone jokingly calling you foo in a harmless idiomatic expression then good luck with that. Maybe your screen name should be hurtfeelers.
Oh and voodoo, really? 43? You talk like a drunken frat guy, I always assumed you were just an immature kid.
Oh well, to each is own. May we all enjoy our high horses.

...I l8ke u too bro!.... in my personal experience I have just seen all this pill popping lead to nothing but absolute b*******. People stumbling through life all hazy headed or even worse getting totally addicted and committing crimes or destroying their life.
... I have always kind of felt this way and have never been a pill popper personally. Also those pharmaceutical companies are the absolute scum of the earth and in my opinion not something that conscientious people should be involved with.
... I'm here to research and learn as well as hopefully make some good personal connections with people I can trip with and hang out :-)! Honestly though bro, I just really can't hang out around those people! They just come off as kind of negative like they're not taking care of themselves or approaching life in a positive and respectful manner!
...dogma?...or common sense?...pretty subjective....
.. All I know is in my Commun with mushrooms and the wilderness I was affirmed in my thoughts and feelings!
... I'm not going to overlook common sense and good judgment to try to be quote en quote "open minded"....that seems ignorant...
...honestly... it seems like most of the people claiming open minded are just in denial about their own lame drug usage!
...chest thumping?....come on dude... so many people on here clearly leading some kind of f***** up lives!...addiction...depression...ect...
... my mind was open, I saw how f***** up it was, and made a common sense and rational conclusion that is the kind of stuff that I don't want in my life personally and overall s*** that people don't need in their lives! and society doesn't need whack drugs and junkies ripping them off and destroying familys....I mean. ..Duh!
... you can take it or leave it and I'm not going to waste a bunch of time on shroomery going into eloquent detailed write ups because I have like a million things going on and also I'm extremely intelligent but can also come from the street and tell people what's up Playboy
... TRUST MY INTELLECT IS SUPER STONG!
... I do psychedelic experience is to make myself a better person and to live my life in a holistic and positive manner.
... in my honest opinion a bunch of people are acting like junkies and truly f****** up how society views psychedelics in general. That's not what we need going on! We need to show society that this is Psychological Medicine and has a place in people's lives and in our society!
...THAT'S WHAT'S UP!
....THINK WHAT U WANT!
...VOODOO IS ON POINT! D

Heisencybin said: So I've kinda turned my shroom trips into a ritual like experience. I grow my own and have a ton. But here's the thing: I've bee. Tripping once a week for like 3 months at least. It's like my weekly spiritual/religious meditative practice. Usually in all dark with mindfold meditating for hours.
Is this unhealthy to be doing this often? I feel great and always very happy afterwards, but I'm concerned I may be overdoing it... yet I don't want to stop doing it lol. Anyone else trip weekly? I also do lsd but that is for very special occasions and not even monthly
I think that the way you're using mushrooms is pretty much perfect and it sounds like you're integrating just fine as a result, it's very wise that you are trying to make sure this is safe though. Comparing something as powerful as psilocybin to alcohol is perhaps being a bit short sighted but still, physically speaking psilocybin is 100 times less toxic than alcohol and many people drink every weekend without thinking about it twice (apart from maybe the next day), so if you enjoy taking psilocybin once a week and you can handle it psychologically then why not?
Throughout most of my history with entheogens i've mostly used cubensis mushrooms once every few months, sometimes going well over 6 months without taking anything, especially after a heavy dose. I've also gone through a period where i tripped every week for a year with no negative consequences, of course this can vary from person to person, some people believe that just one trip has ruined their psychological health. I actually only started tripping so frequently after quitting psychedelics for a significant period and focusing on meditation, i honestly don't think i'd be able to trip so often without first having a decent understanding of myself.
One thing i have noticed is that even though it seems physical tolerance is reset after a week, having a week or two off does make it that much more mind blowing when you return. I believe these substances are self-regulating, meaning not only are they non-addictive but also that only you know when you have had enough, nobody else can rightly tell you that it's wrong.

No kidding. But sometimes tripping IS my day job, so circumstances and people vary considerably.

For a minimum of $100, give or take (most likely you'll spend more than $100 though) you can grow all the mushrooms your heart desires. My guess is that living circumstances are holding you back though.

find a different dealer? Or buy more at once, if you're just buying 1/8ths its probably around 20-30 yeah? Should try to get an ounce or something, bulk dealers around here do ounces for 80

I hear that homie. Respect. No response cause I was out mushroom hunting. I don't personally understand how people get hooked on benzos. They just make me sleepy and have very little euphoria, not anything I would ever take but for the express purpose of easing back into the stratosphere upon re-entry from hyperspace. IMO you really have to hate your life to want to pop so many that you black out and go through life a pilled up zombie.
