Trip #2
    #26464255 - 02/01/20 07:29 PM (3 years, 11 months ago)

I had my first trip on the evening of the 1st of January. Had my second trip last night. In some ways it was more intense and in other ways it wasn't. Whereas my first trip I felt in less control racked by waves of laughing then crying, this trip I was in more control of myself throughout the experience. That may have been because the two evenings prior I've been taking 2 mushrooms to take the edge off the stress I'm feeling at work. After last night I think I'm going to refrain for a couple of months.

I got home from work at about 730pm last night. I ate and took care of everything I needed to. I had decided I was going to do slightly less shrooms as I did on my first trip. Over an hour & 15 minute period I consumed 4 shrooms ( I know this doesn't tell you my dosage. I don't weigh them ). I like to ease into it as taking too many at once makes me feel edgy, flush and raises my heartbeat which I don't like. Another 45 minutes passed I was starting to feel really chill enjoying listening to Hawkwind (thank you Shroomery for helping me to discover them), but not where I wanted to be. I decided I wanted to go for the trip. I consumed 3 or 4 more shrooms over another 1 hour period. It was now 945. The come up was slowly happening. Like last time the visuals seemingly started to approach me. First with my eyes closed as if in the distance at a small point, then growing larger over time. Eventually, the visuals encompassed my waking sight. From about 10pm to 3am I laughed. I danced. I sang. And I cried. Throughout the experience the visuals were intense. The walls started breathing. As I moved my hands they created trails. I had the typical flashing colored geometric shapes. The music became so intense. At one point I went to the bathroom stopping by the mirror and could see my face moving and undulating.

I was having such a good time that I remember telling myself I was no longer afraid of the mushrooms as I have been. I've spent the last year experimenting and learning. It's all been sub 1g dosages. A small mushroom at first. Then two. Then more. If I had to guess about last night I probably had 1.5g, certainly nothing approaching what others take, but then I've always been sensitive to drugs. I'm the first one that gets high smoking pot.

As I was dancing I began desiring a tattoo. I don't have any, but I've been lightly contemplating getting one or two. I think it's probably something I'm going to pursue. I imagined a tattoo of a mushroom Goddess. But I need it to be subtle and not something someone would immediately recognize for what it is. I envisioned it on my right forearm. And I also want the number 13 in cuneiform numerals on my left inner forearm.

After the euphoria phase passed I entered a period of introspection. I'm lonely. I have a hard time finding someone that I can love and who will love me. During this period I just wanted to love and it saddened me that I didn't have anyone to love. I begged the universe to let me love someone. This introspection also helped me put together some goals that would help me achieve it. I cried for a while and then I pulled myself out of it. This was around 230 or 3am.

At about 3 or 330 the fun was over. I was still tripping hard, but I started to experience light headedness and an uneasy feeling. I also started having to control my breathing, deep, slow inhales and exhales. I started to experience indigestion, cramping, burping, upset stomach and some nausea. I also felt cold like I couldn't regulate my temperature. I turned on my space heater and sat in front of it enjoying the warmth. I really did not feel well during this period and was concerned for my health. I kept having to reassure myself that this was just the trip. Time also seemed to be stretched. I'd look at the clock and then what felt like 20 minutes later I'd look at it again only to see that a couple of minutes had passed. By 4am I was ready for the trip to be over while still experiencing this discomfort of varying intensities. The discomfort would increase and decrease with the waves of the trip. I was slowly moving between being cold and feeling flush. The visuals were still there, but decreasing. By 530 mentally I was done with the trip merely holding on trying to maintain focus and wishing it were over. At 6am it had subsided enough that I fell asleep.

I woke up at 1030am more or less tired, but the discomfort had passed. My pillow was soaked with sweat.

Spreading the dose outnover the first few hours is what made the trip last so long; if you’d taken the dose in one go, say I n a tea that took seconds to drink, the trip would have been stronger, more intense, but over in 4-5 hours.

It definitely sounds like you now need to integrate what you saw / learned. Thenmushrooms are a tool to show you what changes you need to make in your life to achieve your goals. The hard work starts now. As you say, give yourself a few months to make these changes before tripping again.

Thank you for sharing 👍🏻

I was not bothered with the length of the trip per se. What made the length onerous was the discomfort. From what I've been reading, I'm not sure how I might avoid that going forward. Probably why I've not had the discomfort before was that now I'm upping the amount of shrooms. It was not pleasant and I don't wish to experience that aspect again, if I can help it.

"Discomfort" is part of the trip. Some sensations are part of the trip while others are due to some physical mechanisms.

Low blood sugar causes some people to black-out or get very light-headed, for example.

If we're talking about the physical symptoms of gas, bloating, etc from the digestive tract trying to break down the shrooms, that can be remedied by brewing your mushies into a tea. I take them in capsules and the discomfort is almost non-existent compared to whole dried material.

But it is important to note there are a lot of "discomfort" type feelings that are the effects of the psilocin. I get insane body load. My body isn't actually being crushed by a bulldozer but it sure feels that way. Those are the wonderful, challenges that we must learn to accept. Because "discomfort" is all around us. In every state from sober to absolutely obliterated, blissful to dreadful, there will be moments of discomfort. Sometimes there are clear things we can do to alleviate it. Sometimes it is simply the suffering that comes with the territory of being alive.

I felt really spacey today. Relaxed. Almost high. Almost felt like I took a couple of shrooms. Almost. Otherwise I've been wanting to withdraw into trippy music and be left alone. Can't get enough Hawkwind.

Tea - yeah, I've been reading about that. Lemon might help too.

I used to have 13 vinyl Hawkwind albums (until me and the ex split up!!!). Been to see them live. Loved them for nearly 40 years.

I’d highly recommend Space Ritual for tripping on mushrooms; it’s live but just feels so raw, like you’re in the crowd, like Hawkwind are singing to you from their fairground pedestal (that’s from my head!).

Give Space Ritual a go, you’ll never go back 👍🏻

Dude, I'm already never going back. Space Ritual, Fable of a Failed Race, Golden Void, Master of the Universe, D-Rider, Chronoglide Slide, Magnu (oh Magnu!), Spiral Galaxy, plus a whole bunch more. I've already created my favorites playlist.

Good man 👍🏻

I wonder what inspired the lyric; “watching the grass grow” 😃

Oh, and I’ll be listening to Space Ritual in a couple of hours 👊🏻

Just another bit to add, I reckon the recorded single version of Masters of the Universe is the best song to listen to while tripping............
