Believing in a conspiracy on shrooms

I just tripped 5 g and shrooms convinced me that my whole family from parents to cousins have conspired against me. What was scary is that I reviewed my interactions with them for the last year and it all just started making sense. The words they used, the questions they asked, their behaviour... everything pointed to the conspiracy.
Has this happened to anyone else?

Haha, that's pretty common. A lot of psychedelic users go off into believing conspiracy theories and the sorts.

Never had that happen.
When I was younger I read some about conspiracy theories, but as I got older I realized it really didn't matter, and felt like conspiracy stuff was counterproductive to growth, so quit reading about them.
I felt like they promoted negativity in my mind, and have seen several people lose it from reading them. I have seen people start off "normal" then after reading about conspiracy theories for a few years, were totally changed for the worse.

Everything you convince yourself in that mindset would make perfect sense to you.
I was convinced that everyone who doesn't go to trance parties just haven't found the truth, and that everybody in the parties are the smartest people alive, WRONG.
Keep it together man, stay on track

Delusions of one kind of another are a feature of high dose trips.
Usually they are more grandiose or mystical, but I suppose it depends on your mindset and what's been happening in your real life.

That's fairly typical of delusional thinking during a trip, it all starts to make sense..... except it doesn't.

Hey, at least you didn't convince yourself you were dead and had a guy having a bad trip chase you down a mountain letting out murderous grizzly bear roars, at the time, I was 100% sure I was already dead and I was re-living the experience of how I died, and how this man killed me. A true living nightmare 
The conspiracy could be true, just gotta use logic now that you're out of the trip if it still makes sense

Shrooms are a journey into your subconscious so either your subconscious mid is trying to tell you something : or you really just believe that they are conspiring against you . They may very well be conspiring against you ; but more likely than not its an impression that you have created via distance.

these replies really bother me...WHY does everyone here insist that OP was having "delusions" and that there was no truth in the realizations that he made? Is it just because these conclusions were made under the influence of psychedelics?

Well people were just stating possible effects of psilocybin which could be the explanation. IMO it also has to do with the akashic record of psilocybin.

Because some of us like myself have been there
A lot of things just make sense on trips that are just.. ridiculous in sober life and thinking
You see your dad pick up the phone just as you walk around the corner..... perhaps he's CIA!?
Ive been there, I thought my dad was hired by the government or something to keep an eye on my shroom trips because perhaps I was the chosen one from that movie the matrix but in real life and I wasn't supposed to be seeing or learning all this
It's just drug induced mania, that's why I never believe anything I "learn" on shrooms until after the trip is over
the things have had me believing I was an angel, i was god, this girl I liked was an angel, the world was coming into an end.
drug induced mania

This in particular could also be due to the possible morphogenetic field psilocybin has. Apocalyptic type feelings and visions are a common thing with mushrooms particularly.

All OP says is that his entire family has conspired against him. He didn't bother to elaborate on the nature of this "conspiracy".
Since we have no idea what he is referring to, I dont think.anyone has "insisted" that there is no truth in what he said. People are just explaining that it is not uncommon to develope a delusion of some sort on high doses of magic mushrooms, or any dosage if the person has an undiagnosed mental ilness

What cube talk said, because we've been there. I had to take a break from psychedelics, including websites like the shroomery for a year and a half because I was starting to develop delusions and psychosis.
I thought I was God and had to rid myself of everyone in order to become pure and gain powers. I went so crazy and lost a lot of friends, had to start a new, fresh life all over again to reset what I've been through.
OP said he took 5gs and that's a hefty dose imo. A dose that's sure enough to cause delusions. OP never even said what they were conspiring to do. Are they conspiring to kill you? Send you to prison for taking shrooms? Kick you out the family? I highly doubt they're gonna do any of these things but we need more details. Which brings me to the conclusion that it's all delusions, and they are common in psychedelic/marijuana users.

I still don't understand how I got convinced of this conspiracy because it is so retarded.
Here is the story:
I was tripping with my cousin (it was his first time) and he behaved in a really weird way and resisted my guidance. He started recording himself on a dictaphone and because of the fucking literature class I had in high school I took a lot of things he said as metaphors and thought most words had some kind of symbolic meaning. I slowly "realised" that he is getting into my head and saying my thoughts. Mushrooms convinced me that he was a homosexual (which he isn't) and he was trying to get me to have sex with him by shaping the direction in which my thoughts are going (with the help of the dictaphone). What is worse, is that I believed that my whole family knew about me taking shrooms and that they thought that shrooms opened my mind up for homosexuality and they tried to test me by sending my cousin to trip with me and try to have sex with me. I ended up running away in the rain at 6 am.

And now you know it was all delusions, haha. 5gs can do that to you. I have to admit though, your story is hilarious.

On my shroom trip gone wrong I convinced myself that the police exist incase anyone figures out the true meaning of existence which I thought I had done at the time and ran outside shirtless and shoeless thinking I was the bravest man in existence for taking on the mass amounts of paper work that was to come with the explanation for life. It made perfect sense to me. There is some truth to those thoughts I was having though. I came to some valid conclusions like absolutely no one understands why we exist and we are constantly seeking it through our experience here. I was happy I had all the answers.
-------------------- Step 1: Stare at this for 30 seconds
Step 2: Look at this after following step one
Step 3: Enjoy the mini trip

in a way they do because they enforce laws which prohibit you from exploring your consciousness
