It goes like this. Me and a couple of my friends are wanting to try shrooms for the first time, we have already scored a dime's worth for each of us. I know alot of people do this just for the visuals and well basically just to trip. After doing my research and reading some experiences i thought i would rather do the experience to become closer to God, maybe see his creations for what they are. From what i've read it seems that this would be easier to accomplish if i were to do it alone. Would this be a wise choice?

Well... seeing God on your first trip might be a little too much... you should first get used to the feeling by eating around 2 grams.

I think tripping alone is better for exploring your mind. My first trip was alone, just half an 1/8th, not really a spiritual trip like you are looking for. I prefer to trip with a close friend but I like tripping alone a lot too.

You can still trip like that but be with another, as long as you state your objectives to that person. I would ask you to look inside yourself and decide whether you have things swept under your rug (issues), because these problems will be challenged in the type of trip you are wanting to take. A friend can smooth them out by being there just in case you feel too bad. If you are secure then tripping on your own can be achieved.

My first trip was alone, on about 20 wet grams of homegrown.
I think you'd have a good time alone if you're looking for the spiritual side of the mushroom's effect. However, in a given trip, you can do both. I sometimes like to peak alone and hang out with friends afterwards. I don't really think being alone matters as far as having a bad trip, regardless it's up to you to overcome the negative.
The only bad side I've found about tripping alone is sometimes, and in some mindstates you can get lonely afyer a while.
Plan it out man and go to a really good setting and wander alone, you'll have a crazy time.

I prefer smoking weed alone. I usually prefer being alone. But I think I prefer tripping with my very close friends.

It depends on you. There are people that dont like being w/ other people tripping and then some people that hate being alone cuz there mind can wander too much.
I think if its just 2 other friends go for it. A trip lasts awhile. You'll probably want people sometimes and then alone time others. Its cool to actually talk and hear what other people are thinking. If you want alone time just tell them you want to think, not a big deal....

I definitely think a first trip should be experienced with someone else. Otherwise you've got all kinds of anxieties anyway, and knowing that you're all alone if anything goes wrong could ruin the trip. Being with a friend also kind of keeps your social guard up, so you're less likely to overreact to stuff, because you don't want to look stupid.
I found it very comforting tripping for the first time with a friend, and the fact that neither of us had tripped before made our excitement reflect off each other and made us both feel better, like the fact the other person wasn't scared made you not be scared, etc. You've got the rest of your life to experience God... I'd say keep it safe and fun for the first time, then you'll know what to expect when you trip on your own, and you'll relax and truly get into it.

I recently tripped for the first time with 20gs of fresh homegrown. I did it with my girlfriend, and it was her first time, too. I think it made my experience a lot better having her around. There was a lot going on during my trip that I HAD to talk about, and usually I'm fairly individual. It makes it alot better I think if someone can relate to exactly whats happening to you, especially iif you've never tripped before. Anyway, I'd reccomend tripping with someone you trust and are close to.
