First time with shrooms

Hello
Tonight I will be trying mushrooms for the first time. I have tried DMT around 8 times. I also went camping last Friday and tried acid for the first time. I had a really good time on LSD, although when the visuals kicked in I had to relax myself for about 20 minutes to get used to it. I am wondering how much should I do for my first time? Keep in mind I would like to have a full trip with visuals, but nothing too intense. Alot of people say,"you have done dmt, everything else is fine". In my opinion everything is different, so I don't want to go too crazy. I am going camping to the same place I tried acid with two really good friends. One of them is very experienced. He picked up 28 grams for the three of us. I think this may be too much as I have heard I should start with 2 to 3.5 grams for the first trip. What does everyone else suggest?
Thank you

Think about it like 2g is comparable to 1 hit of LSD and 3.5g is 2 hits etc. Of course this is not going to be a perfect comparison because they are different chemicals.

Why the rush. If you have worries or questions, sort them out first and then enjoy the ride, safer and smarter.

28 divided by 3 is over 9 grams a piece. No No No. try 2.5 - 3 grams first time.

your not comparing apples to oranges but oranges to grapefruit! There are similarities but very much different highs! If we are talking about dried Cubes Id say 3.5Grams would be a good 1st trip. ITS NOT LIKE lsd ASIDE FROM VISUALS and laughter, its much less intense, you have more control over the intense points as where LSD is continuous and 8-12 hrs where shrooms are 4 hrs and you peak 2hrs in then start coming down, (as a tea) chewing makes the come on take longer and build to peak yet last a little longer!
A really strong 1st trip is 5 grams dried and I usually split it, half in a tea and half chewed to stretch out the intensity. I wouldnt go further than that unless you plan on being stuck in one spot watching everything blast by you at hyper speed at peak. If your eating fresh shrooms scrap what I said above, they can be alot stronger and weights vary immensly...high is the same!

Thank you for the response. I think I will try three grams and another two grams after the first two hours depending how I feel

I only disagree with is "much less" intense part but is surely a shorter duration of about 5 hours for me. I doubt if you eat 3g and wait for it, that you'll want for two more. good luck!

I found out they are dried. Also, what do you mean about hyperspeed peak? Would a large amount of shrooms have similar effects to DMT?

Re-dosing does not work well with shrooms. With this substance, it's best to get your entire dose down in one go. Sometimes, I'll slowly consume my dose over 30-45 min, but after that I cut myself off. Dosing again after more than an hour since the initial dose just tends to extend the amount of time you're tripping, and doesn't necessarily add any pleausurable effects. For me, the more uncomfortable aspects are amplified and the trip lingers longer than I want it to...so I just don't re-dose anymore. I know others on this forum share this opinion.
If you dose properly, I think 3g-3.5g should be a great time. Dosing shrooms properly entails: eating light the day-of as well as refraining from eating at least an hour before dosing. Some people recommend fasting, but based on my own experience, low blood sugar during a trip can cause problems and be uncomfortable. I just recommend eating light and healthy. Also remember to ingest your full dose within 30-45 min of first bite/sip as tolerance builds incredibly fast. If you do these things, you can be sure you are getting the most out of your mushrooms.
Hope you have an enjoyable ride, mate. Try to find time to meditate if you can. Shrooms go deeeep...it's amazing what they can do with a quiet mind.

my experience is that mushrooms are far more mind confusing than LSD. i believe this experience is a common one. on my first 3.5 dose, i believed that the music i was listening to and the mushrooms i had eaten were entirely dependent on one another, that in fact they were actually the same thing, that one did not exist without the other. CEV visuals depicted stories that were generated by the music i was listening to.
for me, it was very colorful, and i had incredible OEV. 3D objects spontaneously formed in the air and emerged from the surface of the walls.
my cats had more than 4 legs. the extra legs would appear and then disappear. they had multiple sets of eyes. they changed size, growing larger and then smaller, compact then elongated. fur changed colors, with the new color flowing from head to tail.
if you have the capacity to let go and just flow with the experience, 3.5g is a great introduction. if you are teh kind of person who needs or wants to maintain some level of control, a first experience in the 2 to 2.5g range may be a better choice. having said that, potency can vary quite a bit, so 3.5g could be more in the meh range or 2g could be more in the WTF range.
good luck.
tripping outdoors at night has the potential to be scary, so weigh that carefully when deciding doseage.

Thats not entirely true, I make a tea/lemon tek with 2.5-3. grams then they boom in like 30 mins, I get an idea of intensity then eat 2.-2.5 grams chewing them and it does work much better for me, but yes eating 3.0 then 2 hrs later, they wont work, he would be wasting them!

Different sport. Dmt is out there but do not underestimate the shrooms I consider them more serious than dmt because it lasts.

Irishroom - I would like to point out that everyone is different. For me.. I am very sensitive to shrooms for one reason or another. I took 3g a few months ago and I was blasted into a void! Couldn't think, couldn't move and a little voice was saying if you just do a little more we will show you the way! Just a little more! There was a point where I couldn't tell my arm from my bed. Everything was sparkling and mixed together.
My advice is start small and work your way up as you don't know the potency or your tolerance level.
Happy Shrooming Brother

You mentioned having LSD just a week ago. I would personally wait for at least three weeks before taking shrooms, because LSD develops cross tolerance with psilocybin. Something to do with serotonin levels and other intricate aspects of neurophysiology. Most people suggest having at least 2 sober weeks between trips, but the more - the better.

About 35-45 shrooms dried or 2g dried will do the job if its first time. the body buzz from mushrooms is something else Maybe eat them dry with some ice cream or something sweet, does the trick every time

Psilocybin and DMT are very closely related . A strong 5g+ mushroom trip is similar to a very long DMT trip. The thing with mushrooms in comparison to LSD or even DMT is that they can produce a Add to dictionary effect- Very emotionally moving. You may be laughing and soon crying about repressed memories then horny and then laughing again. 5 grams or more will have you in a psychically sedentary state where reality will begin to melt away and you will essentially begin to dialogue or commune with intelligent beings . For a fun chill hiking trip I recommend like 2-3 grams in tea or lemon tek . After you come down redoes 1-2 grams to continue if you like . Happy shrooming Namaste -Jesus
