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.

Clearly it's not everyone's cup of tea but I drink religiously when I trip. I always have a healthy fridge of beer going into a trip.
I enjoy it a lot. I mean I don't sit there and get hammered with shots or anything -- I don't drink any liquor but I love having a beer on hand at all times that I can sip on through the trip.

I drink when on shroms sometimes.now i am an alcoholic but not to nuts just like a 6 pack a night kind of drinker. And i have noticed alcohol weakens the trip on for mush a bit so its good for a come down never tried on the come up though. It does seem to make lsd last longer and a little stronger/more social

I see it like a couple beers and the alcohol is going to help breakdown the chemical structure of the mushroom. I don’t mean destructively, but maybe help to convert psilocybin and use the psilocin more throughly. Like I’m saying the alcohol helps me get lit off the shrooms

Waste of mushrooms in my opinion. Will most likely make you feel sick or just dull the effects of the mushrooms and you'll just feel drunk.

Not true. Not true at all. Not in my experience anyway.
It has never made me "feel sick", dulled the effects or just made me feel drunk.
If it dulled the effects and/or just made you feel drunk, then drinking a few beers would be the #1 trip killing option for those having bad trips.
Try drinking some beers during a bad trip and see if that makes it go away -- because it won't.
You'll still be tripping just as hard.

I'm not sure about that. When I first started playing around with mushrooms I drank the second time (buzzed before the comeup) and continued to drink until the peak.
I could feel that I was getting drunk - but when that peak hit me it was like alcohol wasn't even in presence. But, I just think the peak was so heavy that nothing could phase it lol.
That was the only time I have ever drank with mushrooms.. and won't do it again anyway. Drinking just isn't my thing anymore. Socially, on a hot summer day poolside, sure. But mushrooms will be put away until a nice warm night with somewhere I can star gaze and enjoy myself.
Two completely different drugs - two completely different atmospheres that I prefer to do those in these days.

For those that do drink on mushrooms, do you get a bad headache / hangover the next day? I usually have a couple of glasses of wine on the come down, then feel shit the next day. When I don’t drink wine, I feel awesome the next day.

One of my biggest acid trips was after a night of drinking. I was pretty drunk, and remained drunk for about 30-45 minutes after taking the hits. When it kicked in, I suddenly found myself in a different part of the room, listening to music. It was as though I had been sort of 'blacked out' so to speak but the LSD kicking in just brought me right back to baseline, followed by my heaviest trip.
Weirdest part was that I puked just once in the morning- and I think that was just because of the prior intensity of the trip- and had no hangover. Both of which would've been inevitable had I just passed out drunk, I'm a lightweight and have a weak stomach sometimes.
I'm of the camp that you trip just as hard, or maybe just a tiny tiny bit less, when you drink/are drunk. I'm sure a beer or two can relax you slightly by association or by physically slowing your heartrate or whatever, but psychedelics will always overpower alcohol IME.

Yeah that sounds similar to mdma overpowering alcohol; not that we did alcohol that often with it! My headache etc is probably down to dehydration because i’ll only have a couple of glasses of wine afterwards (I’d normally do a bottle before bed and not get headache next Day). So whereas if I didn’t have wine, I’d drink more water and go to bed hydrated.......

Might have to do with level of intoxication. For example, the level of intoxication experienced with alcohol is far more than cannabis (as is evident in car crash statistics - 200% vs 1300% as likely), so the alcohol overpowers the weed.
Perhaps the psychedelic level of intoxication is simply higher than alcohol?

I don't personally notice this. I, too, am often drawn to a pinot noir or something juicy once I've come down. Maybe I hydrate myself quite thoroughly otherwise? I am one to drink nearly twice that of the recommended daily water intake. I also take in a lot of tea (camellia) on the daily.
One of my disregards that I kind of feel bad for in regard to the sanctity of the psychedelic experience is that, When I get half-cocked, I am Insatiably drawn to taking a dose of mushrooms. If I'm at home, it takes a good amount of discipline to not dose myself any night that I put a few down the hatch. It always sobers me up/trips me out within the hour and I have a wonderful time wandering the streets/woods at night. The worst side-effect I might get is some soreness in my knees from my synovitis. Which I believe to strictly be the inflammatory properties of alcohol combined with the light exercise. If anything, I think the mushrooms relieve some of it.
...I guess there's also the potential for legal ramifications. But I'm quite illusive in that state.

Yeah footpath, in general I don’t drink enough water, and have also recently started drinking coffee again (they’ve got a machine at work and started supplying free pods, so it would have been rude not to!!!)
I always finish a bottle of water tripping, then at about 4 hours in when I start feeling the come down, I get really hungry and always fancy a wine; I have to be really disciplined not to. So yeah probably if I drank 2 bottles of water tripping, I might feel better.
Testing a new batch of Golden Teachers tomorrow that failed last week because I messed the tea up. So because I haven’t waited two weeks, I’m planning to dose my lowest ever: 2.5g. I’m intending / hoping it’s a rave style of trip where I can just let my hair down and rave. Ooh did I tell you I just got the 3 month free Spotify trial, so I’ve got loads of new sounds to try out. Thinking about Infected Mushroom and 1200 Micrograms. Got an additional water experiment now to conduct tomorrow.......

Yeah, keeping properly hydrated can cure a lot of issues. My better half is a functional nutritionist - her preliminary questions to her clients are always: "How much water do you drink?" and "How often do you eat leafy vegetables?" We're American, so... ignorance is basically the biggest disease around these parts. Bodily neglect falls into that category. Amazing how many people return to her feeling much improved after simply increasing their water intake.
Hope your tea works out better this time - 2.5g, for me, is usually a more grounded experience where I can get into some light activity with a hallucinogenic flourish. But, sometimes it will still launch me a little further than expected. Groovin' on some tunes will likely be perfect.

A big thumbs up, pal 👍🏻 I really need to sort my diet out; got all sorts of medical problems, for,years, so diet for last 11 years has been enough calories to survive! And I know I don’t drink enough water. I have a bladder the size of a walnut, so at the best of times I need to wee on the hour. It’s a running joke at work. If I have a fourth coffee / tea during the day, my 1 hour commute home is marginal...... So I’ve always took the easy way out and skimped on the water. I will definitely double my water intake while tripping from now on, it can only help.

What makes you think I'm an alcoholic? Because I like to drink when I trip?
Sorry if I was unclear. What I meant is regarding all the studies that suggest that mushies can help people stop drinking. Just thought it was a paradox, thats all.
