Tripping at home(not alone)
    #26358830 - 12/03/19 10:18 AM (4 years, 2 months ago)

I’m in my mid 30’s and live with my two kids and girlfriend. I haven’t tripped when they have been home before. What are your thoughts on tripping at night when they sleep?
I’m not often home alone and when I am it often don’t feel right(set).
So it’s difficult to find good times for shrooms. I’m thinking max 1,5-2g of liberty caps.
We have a room in the basement that is really good for tripping.
Is it a bad idea?

I say go for it, in your own comfortable space with loved ones around doesn't get much better.. Unless they don't know and you don't want them to know then the fear of getting caught could ruin your trip.

Maybe tell the wife and she can make sure the kids don't go looking for daddy :smile:

Yup. It depends on whether they know and are ok with you tripping. In my case only my wife knows but she only tolerates it and doesn't want to know anything about it. I have an older son who doesn't know. I can only trip alone. Very much a couple times a year only.

I do it at home when everyone else goes to sleep but the difference is no one in my home depends on me. I think this is the reason I can do it comfortably. If something goes awry after everyone goes to sleep, no one will be coming to me for answers (unless the house is burning down).

It might not be the best idea with children or a partner (if they depend on you) since there is a risk that they may bother you if something happens (even something minuscule). But if you know you won't be bothered for sure, and your partner knows what is going on, I'd say go for it. Definitely don't want to keep your partner in the dark if she lives with you in case she walks in and thinks something is wrong.

Just let everyone know that you are going on a self induced field trip for 5 hours with a do not disturnbb sign on the door handle.

But seriously I think you should be ok and halfway functional. I think if you were to tell your gf so that she is aware, it would make you alot less worrisome.

Your girlfriend should know and be watching you. Your (young) kids should be with your parents while you trip. I wouldn't risk having children see their dad completely lost in another world, it can be quite traumatic.

If you can't tell them, then don't trip at home.

My partner know, I told her about my plans earlier today. She is a little worried that I could  go crazy and loose my mind. I’m not worried about that, especially on a moderate dose?

I understand that she is worried, she was with me on a Ayahausca retreat and she had a hard time(first and last time unfortunately).
I won’t be bothered, unless the house burns down :smile:

That shoudlnt be a wild dose, since you have experience. Just dont underestimate it too much.

Everybody’s situation is personal to them, dude. So you should be the judge, once you’ve digested the helpful responses above. Here’s a few details of my trips:

My wife knows and supports me, but will not take them. I have a teenage daughter who is anti-drugs. Full stop! I will tell her when she’s older, say 18+.

So my wife has always been worried I should be out of the house. But the mushrooms have helped me come off SSRIs, three and a half years ago, after 7 years on them. So she helps where possible.

But tht all said, I time it for when my daughter is out. Once or twice timings has gone wrong and I’ve ended up having to speak to my daughter while tripping. Not easy nd really impacts the trip when you’re giving it 100% energy to not trip; if that makes sense.

I have tried waiting until they’re all in bed, but to be honest, you need to set aside an entire weekend to do that.

Recently I’ve started camping.

And even more recently, my wife has started making arrangements to be out; a few weeks ago she took herself nd my daughter and slept over t her mother’s. That night was one of the best trips ever.

You see, you’re vulnerable while tripping, and any distractions and / or worries will detract from the experience. When I have been completely alone, you can relax nd not worry that you look and sound like n idiot. I can punch the air, talk shite, dance (yeah, right, but it feels like I’m dancing).

Think seriously about it, pal; the trip will be far better with no distractions.

And final bit of advice for any newbies reading, I do not recommend tripping alone until you know what to expect nd what you can handle. Harping back to my example above, the first hour I thought I’d made a mistake being on my own; by the peak I was so grateful to be alone.

Hope this has helped, and take care.

as some have mentioned, just use less than an amount that will make you drool writhing on the floor.

if you are at home, it has to be OK for the kids or wife to enter your space and interact, even if it is your designated private time. After all what is more important to you. keep it that way. If they enter, be gracious, and after 10 minutes or so, remind them that you are working on something in your mind and need to be alone again for a while, but you love them very much.

no anger, soft firm boundaries, and transgressions are unpunished.

therefore, keep the dose down, and maybe over time, in a series of sessions, you can titrate the dose up by 1/4 tab or so.

I would start with no more than half a tab, which will make your partner more comfortable and will keep you from running naked and yelling that you saw god.

Of night and light and the half light,
I would spread the cloths under your feet:
But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
I have spread my dreams under your feet;
Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.

Very objective. Definitely depends on if they know or not IMO. I'm mid 20's & still live with my parents. This makes it almost impossible for me trip at home. I mean, I've done it once and it was a boring trip.

When you're on mushrooms, your emotions and worries can increase ten fold. So, I was scared to make noise, scared to go to the bathroom incase I got questioned.. idk it just made the trip absoutely shitty. Also, being restricted to just my room was a buzzkill as well.

I would never do it again. Maybe if I had a talk with my mom and put it on the table, it would be different. But I kinda know she wouldn't approve of me  being in that state while she was home. She would be all worried and whatnot.

I usually have always tripped out in the woods in my hammock with some snacks. But now, with the colder weather.. I need a nice little warm comfy place to trip. Def want the opportunity to come shortly.

But most definitely let them know. Hiding things can make a trip bunk & a waste. The wife hangs out with the kids.. while you get your experience.

I'm assuming she does not know though. Otherwise, I don't think youd really be asking. If that's the case man.. I suggest  not to. May be great.. may be shitty. I just hate having a "secret" to hide when all I wanna do is walk around and enjoy myself and do whatever I want to do with little to no restrictions.

Like, go in my living room and lay on my floor and watch the Christmas tree. Stuff like that bothers me when I can't do it because of restrictions

I'm in my early 40s and occasionally trip at home during the day when my kids and missus are about. Of course I don't take so much that I'm a fucking space cadet, just enough to have a good time and ponder the universe and everything. It's not crack or crystal man, it's not going to ruin your life... just add new perspectives.

My family doesn't even notice, though I do talk about my trips with my wife afterwards and the things I thought and felt.

I used to do larger doses at night by myself but it can get a bit weird. I get the apprehension when you finally get some time alone and you don't feel right dosing. I've pushed through that though and haven't regretted it. It's not like a bed set where you have troubles over n your mind, it's just apprehension.
