No fb for almost 2 years... when it wasn't drama, it was somebody boo-hooing about how bad their life is...
I've never had a "bad trip", but I've had lots of challenging ones... They are generally the most rewarding though

Agreed. I have a journey coming up on Saturday... I have a feeling I have some demons to stir up and deal with. Going to drop 6g for this. I think it'll be a challenge.

I confess that I've been very studious about keeping cultivation notes... up until last week. My journal has been very empty since then.

I confess. I'm at work and wish I wasn't. 60 grams wet Rusty put it on my ass last night. Ready for sleep and a smoothie.

I go hard I suppose... if I feel I've got something to contend with, I'm STARTING with 10g tea and an eighth in chocolate peanut butter robots ... admittedly, it's whooped that ass more times than I care to admit, but I'm a much more tolerable person because of it...
Bph, you made it broski!

Well I went ahead with a 3g tea last night 7pm-11ish pretty solid experience does anyone else get all squirmy and shit? Its like my body is in fear response but I'm not in any danger. My legs usually feel like jello, very similar bodily reaction to say almost getting in a wreck, or just narrowly escaping some horrible thing. Anxiety central It creates an odd pressure in my head too, that I cant flex and shake off like I would an arm or leg cramp feeling, and the only thing to really mitigate it is to start counting my breathing in and out. If not I get worried about it and it gets worse like my head may pop. Not painful...just unpleasant. But when I can tune into the breathing, I get to kinda sink into the trip better and more enjoyably Its like I'm way to nervous about preconceived potentials with psychedelics. I spend the come up so paranoid/scared that I might completely lose touch with whats real and see actual things happen that arent really happening. Nothing like that ever happens, I don't mean powerful distorted visuals or introspected thoughts (I expect that), but a real loss of touch without realizing it. Anyways maybe I just need more trips to build up the belief that that wont happen.
I agree with totally with whats been said and repeated, no bad trips, just challenging. And not so challenging like mental fuck, but mine have been physically challenging. Like learning the buttons on a new controller, only its for a system I've never played, and its set to inverted by default

Hmm, I say you should double the dose, make it super concentrated and shoot it back without thinking twice. If you're ballsy just absorb it sublingually I bet it will blast you right past those jitters.

During the come up I definitely get squirmy, can't sit still. I have so much energy in my limbs I feel I have to walk around a bunch.
At the peak of my trip that seems to go away, if I've had 3g or more.

There's a getting past??? lol I felt I had to balance the breathing exercise the whole time, to much and I wanted to close my eyes and kinda sleep like I was overwhelmed and just needed to shut down. Stop the breathing exercise and here comes the odd psychic pressure in the back of my head freaking me out lol
I've seen that suggested tho before, Ill need to give it a go next round of soul cleansing
@Spindlymass , see I cant really shake that week limb feeling for most of the trip maybe some more herb next time (or less? could that aid in the mental mix ups?)

I find I have a clearer more focused trip with just mushrooms. If I add weed I get dull and foggy, I don't like the feeling. Unless I have 5g or more then the mushrooms look at the weed like
I can feel my internal workings more when I trip. The feeling of having a full stomach is heightened, I can feel my muscles and their pull on my body. Maybe that's the head pressure you feel?

okay maybe a purer approach next time, the head pressure is almost akin to the tunnel like feeling you'd get before passing out. I think that's what scares me is thinking I stroked out or something and am about to black out
all the way around I'm almost certainly "holding on" to much, tho not consciously intentional. Gotta get better at giving up and letting go, I think the breathing exercise will help "trick" my body into calming tf down

My train of thought is the squirminess is on the come up. If you can shorten the come up enough you won't notice the squirminess. By taking more you increase your trip intensity and shorten the come up. The tea, liquid solution, is more bioavailable than chewed up mush material. This shortens the comeup as well as overall trip duration, but increases intensity. Concentrating the liquid solution does so further especially if absorbed sublingually. The goal is to saturate your plood with the alkaloids contained in your solution. The slow and low saturation rate associated with eating dry mush, similarly underdosing, will cause the undesirable "squirmy" effects. If you go from "0-60" in 10min instead of 1hr there is simply less time to even feel that pressure. Buy the ticket, take the ride...

I confess... I've said it before, and I'll say it again... Higher doses are easier than low-to-mid doses ... I truly feel as though psilocybin causes you to shift frequency in your interpretation of reality, and that the discomfort we experience on the come-up is the static between channels so to speak ... by increasing the dose, I find it easier to catapult through the static to smooth sailing much faster ... I've also found that dosing half tea and either eating the other half raw or in chocolate makes for a more fulfilling experience ... this is all obviously anecdotal based on my experience with an (semi)unpredictable substance LOL
I also confess, took initiative (again) and walked into the local co-op with some fresh blue oyster, the guy wasn't very interested initially, but once I showed him pictures of multiple species, and came across shiitake, his interests peaked... will purchase this upcoming harvest of likely 2 lbs on Tuesday (said he would've taken 10lbs if I had had it)... I gave him the half pound of blue oyster for employees/some feedback, and made an appointment to sell the shiitake Tuesday morning! He says there are 2 other guys growing, but not consistent, and usually ends up shipping in from Pennsylvania... will use 20-25lbs a week shiitake, and it gets my foot in the door for other species... cloud nine right now: my shiitake (at the very least) will be available to the public, in the co-op of the town I grew up in!
