Alcohol & Shrooms

Never tried em together. Do they interact well? I never drink alone, so I’m wondering how they would interact in a social/party setting?

I have only drank twice prior to taking mushrooms. These were my first experiences actually. The drinking most definitely helps with the comeup. Having a nice solid buzz rids of the anxiety.
It's weird though, when you're drunk you almost become sober. But drinking and mushrooms is not my thing anymore. To each their own, but I think mushrooms to be the last thing to be used in a "party" drug.
Acid or coke or something else. Mushrooms... just nah.

Would you say the effect of alcohol on the come up is similar to that of weed?

Hit or miss, I would certainly try it on yourself before a party. I’ve known people who love the combination and will nosh on shrooms while sipping wine. Others see it as vomit and spins city. Then others find it somewhere in between.

Get ahold of some Lemon Balm tea, steep 3 to 4.5 grams of dried leaf into hot water for like 15 to 30 minutes, strain/filter out the leaves, sweeten if desired and consume with the mushies. Lemon Balm contains Rosmarinic Acid which inhibits GABA Transaminase which raises GABA levels and thus is a more natural alternative to alcohol and benzo's for smoothing out the come up, and perhaps even making for a more recreational experience, doesn't reduce the benefits, but does reduce come up anxiety and panic and can reduce the intensity while maintaining the higher states and such. I highly recommend it. Alcohol and Psyches do not mix well for a lot of people and can contribute to black outs and violent behavior, usually if people drink too much alcohol though, but idk if a beer or two would be bad, never tried it.

A couple drinks can be good before dosing to help ease anxiety in the come up, and would definitely make mushrooms better for social situations, at least for me. I drink alone all the time. I liked to trip at parties back in the day (even without alcohol), but not so much now.

I tried the lemon balm last week, but did it wrong! I put the teabag in with the mushrooms while boiling; think the teabag soaked up all thenpsychoactive compounds!. But it also knocked me out for an hour, kicked in in about 15 mins. Then I started a really weak trip, then headache for about 24 hours!
I’d highly recommend it for people who struggle to get to sleep, or for anxiety, but I’ll take my chances with come up anxiety; if I was still in my 20s I’d consider it for the recreational aspects of tripping, but not these days.

I often like to wash my shrooms down with one or two light beers (have always had a preference for Rolling Rock) but would definitely not want to be drunk and tripping.
LSD has always been more of a party drug for me than shrooms. When I was younger a friend and I were into dropping a couple of tabs then splitting a nice bottle of single malt scotch. There can be whole prism of flavors in a good scotch that really go well with the head space.

Yeah i've always made the Lemon Balm tea separately, then either drink it with the mushies or mix the Lemon Balm tea with the mush tea, but probably best not to make them in the same tea just in case. Also the sleepiness depends on dosage, i know 4 grams can make me feel a bit drowsy but 3 grams seems fine. I'd recommend giving it another shot before giving up on the Lemon Balm, most people do good with it. Also it may be worth trying to drink the Lemon Balm tea nightly for a bit, as your body can gain benefits from it from regular consumption and reduce anxiety in the day to day as well, and when your body gets used to it it'll still work for reducing Psych anxiety without really causing that initial drowsiness. Some people get the drowsiness initially, some don't. But it's good stuff for sure, i wouldn't have been able to tolerate my rather excessive Aya consumption as long as i did if it weren't for the Lemon Balm i'm pretty sure.

I’m really fascinated by that. So much so I just checked the box, because I must have had 4g or more, the effect was so strong. Each teabag is 1g!. So I don’t know, maybe I’m hypersensitive to it!
Your suggestion to use it nightly so when I do trip I’m not knocked out, that’s sensible advice brother, thank you. I could maybe then get to sleep, without drinking a bottle of wine first.....

I do like red wine on the come down, though I do take it slowly. I strongly recommend cannabis on mushrooms, though take it slow at first until you get used to it. It really enhances and intensifies the trip. I have had it half hour in where it has stopped my come up until the two hour mark. Than I carried on tripping. The OEVs always intensify. And the scary ridiculous looking demons and clowns with teeth and orange Dutch women (don’t ask...) Nd the whole world caving in on you. Ahem yes I’m experienced with mushrooms and cannabis, but it still catches me out. Take it slow.

THC is a staple in any of my tripping experiences, got some weed that broke the 30% THC barrier this morning, microdosed some lsd and have been having a hell of a day
