Increasing the dose
    #23566787 - 08/22/16 05:53 PM (7 years, 5 months ago)

I've only had 3 trips on shrooms so far, each one taking 2 grams.  The first time I was definitely freaking out and did not have a good time.  The next two times I enjoyed the experience a lot more because I knew what to expect.  I want to try more but I've got anxiety that if I increase the dose I might freak out again.  Is moving from 2g to 3g a good, small stepping stone to working my way up to higher amounts?

Just stay at 2 grams for a little bit. Nothing wrong with that, just be comfortable before you jump.

Get comfortable until you are mentally ready and try perhaps jumping from 2 to 2.5 although just half a gram it's a 25% increase in dose compare to a 50% increase to 3 grams. I never noticed too huge of a difference between 2 and 2.5 except a little more body high.

I disagree . if really worried get a sitter and jump to three grams. Baby steps are the key. I take it the reason you want to increase the dose is to increase the effects. One gram increase shouldn't be a death trap at low to mid doses

Well that depends hugely on one single question...why did you freak out the first time?

Was it because you didn't know what to expect or you were expecting something else? Did you think it would be like other drugs?

I think I'm ready for a 50% more dose.  I freaked out the first time because I had never done psychedelics and didn't expect to start seeing the universe the way I did.  I was disturbed that there was another "plane" of existence that one could be on and as things that I thought of as normal began to slip away I felt threatened/anxious/paranoid.  It didn't help that there was a large party of unfamiliar people nearby- I was convinced that they meant us harm and I'd be unable to protect myself or my friends in my altered state. In reality they were actually pretty cool people but I was not getting a good vibe at the time. The next couple of times actually still slightly disturbed me but I was able to handle it a lot better and I made sure to do it in a comfortable friendly environment which helped a lot.

A friend of mine recently told me the dopamine released will amplify whatever thoughts you're thinking about at the time, so it's smart to go in prepared with happy positive thoughts and the shrooms can reinforce them.  But if you take them while already slightly worried about something else (like the large noisy party I mentioned) then it can start to make the trip go south.  I guess I just feel prone to bad trips because I like being in control of my reality and when it starts to get taken away I get worried it may not return.

If your enjoying a 2 gram trip I say stick with that. One day you'll get bored and you'll know when it's time to move up. I've never tripped before. Though - I'm just using logic

Hell you could do what i did when decided that my weak first trip wasn't anything special. Jump form 3g to 20grams. You freak out like never before but after that mushrooms at 5 or even 8g are a cake walk. As you a fellow human being i cant recommend making you suffer like that. But it is a good way to prep for the five gram trips you'll take.

Low doses are more uncomfortable for me. 3.5 g would be easier than 2 g in a sense because theres less of the `stuck between two worlds` feel i get on low doses

Ya the real trick is to just know that you won't be able to hold onto reality those first 3 or even sometimes 4 hours but remind yourself that after that the trip will be smooth and in control and full of lessons.
The beginning is always the most difficult you just have to get over the hump and learn to accept it and as soon as you do that the trip will go your way and it will all become clearer. Mushroom trips don't really make sense in the beginning which is I think what distinguishes it from other psychedelics.

Thanks for the advice.  It is just sometimes hard to let the trip do its thing without fighting it.

Listen to this dude. Those first 3 or 4 hours he is absolutely fucking correct. And they are a fucking looooong 3-4 hrs.

I find the best way to fix this is with a beautiful environment like out in nature. In the mountains or desert is great. It just feels so much more comfortable and natural to 'lose yourself' in those environments. I've also just for some reason been really lucky with mushrooms too. Not so lucky with acid though.
