Very interesting post Vibe Enthusiast. I too started out doing psychedelics with other people and mostly did them for the "Good Vibes" - meaning having a pleasant time and enjoying the experience of communal tripping. I no longer trip with people, or very seldom at least. I am fairly selfish with my experiences now, as other people truly get in the way of the magic that emerges when you are alone with the mushroom. Whether you are outdoors, indoors, listening to music or in complete silence / darkness - the mushroom takes on a whole different dimension once the distraction of other people are removed from the equation.
When you start to experiment alone, especially on doses higher than 1/8 you realize that there are extremely difficult parts of the trip that you must work through. Having the safety and companionship of a person is often an easier way of exiting out of a negative space in the journey. When left alone, you have to navigate negative spaces alone and find the exit from negative thought loops. So it's good that you consider yourself to be of strong mind and mental fortitude. Overall, my advice would be to develop your relationship with the mushroom solo - starting out at a moderate dose of an 1/8. Depending on how you feel, you can bump it up until you get to experience the mind bending and fantastical zones of the heroic 5g realms. It takes time though, and I believe that a prudent approach is always better in the long run. Hope this helps!
Absolutely man! I apprecaite the reply. I've thought that as well.. it's like I noticed I would put energy into other people wondering if they're having a good experience when I should be focusing on myself ya know? I guess, just the weird transition to taking them alone opposed to friends is what I will have to get used to first. Seeing as how I've never experienced a solo trip.
Maybe just go and hang my hammock and bring my headphones and lay under the tress and let the mushroom speak to me.. I do feel like it would be a complete difference experience. Even with a gram or two.. I'm sure being by myself would bring out so much more.
Did you notice a huge difference when you took on your first solo trip? Apprecaite your outlook on this brother!

Man - my first mushroom experience was 16 years ago. It has been so many years and so many drops - they all kind of start to blend into each other. I don't remember the first time that I went solo, but over the last 10 years I have almost exclusively tripped alone. I kind of view it like a conversation. Can you imagine having a conversation with another adult and then a young kid keeps trying to get your attention and talk to you? I view it in the same vein. The mushroom has a lot of things to communicate to you, but other people (no matter how well intentioned or nice) are getting in the way of that communication. For my first journey into the abyss solo, I would suggest doing it at your house if possible. There is more security and familiarity there, which might be beneficial for your first solo run. Also, it's a no brainier - but you have to be in a good place mentally as well. I need to practice what I preach - but I really think having a daily meditation practice could add significant mental control and concentration power to a solo trips. I am really trying to incorporate this into my life, but it is difficult. Anyways - you only need to get 1 solo run under your belt, then you will see that it's fucking awesome... Then you can blast off onto 4, 5 or even 6 grams and go meet all of the hyperspace beings in Shroom town. That's where the real magic lies!
