What is your favorite dose?
    #26719354 - 06/04/20 02:26 PM (3 years, 7 months ago)

What dose do you guys like the best after experimenting with different doses and why? I am a noob and only have taken up to 25g fresh. I did take more once, like 35-40 but I didnt take it all at once. 25g fresh was a very uplifting experience and deep come up.

Peace

Still looking for it but I've had some great experiences on a range of doses (one of my favorite being 5g fresh APE made into a tea last week. I was expecting a very low dose experience and was blown away).

I like 3g+ and I imagine with more experimentation I will settle between 3 and 5g (but I've yet to go beyond 3.5g dry)

No less than 3.5 dry grams. My favorite is probably somewhere between 4-6 dry grams, but if I do it right that is a harrowing experience. I have to dose high to get the effects I want with mushrooms, but that also means that it can be a terrifying and thoroughly harrowing experience. Still, you can't go wrong with 3.5 grams.

I want to dose high enough that I get auditory hallucinations, CEVs, intense mindfuck (if not egodeath), flashes of hallucination and disconnection from the body, reliving memories, that kind of thing. And that inevitably leads to feeling like you're dying/going to die.

Yeah, I was just about to come back to mention intense nausea and other intense physical symptoms also go along with dosing high enough to get good effects.

Auditory hallucinations sound kind of scary to me, but maybe if you know what to expect they arent. You mean like voices, or sounds? Mindfuck is the feeling of being astonished/bewildered and just being confused?

The auditory hallucinations I get are very electronic, kindof like the sounds in old video games, or somewhat similar to the sounds made by some birds. Repetitive electronic sounds, simple series of monochromatic notes in repetition, sometimes series of notes in scales, repeated over and over. It's also somewhat similar to the noises made by a casino when all the games are going off.

Mindfuck is uncontrollable nonsense that happens in your mind, kindof like noise but more organized, that you don't have any voluntary control over. It's like if there were random words and noises and other things like images and thoughts occurring in your mind, but they were nonsensical and random and they were beyond your control. Randomness popping in your mind uncontrollably. Like as if you were slowly losing control over your own mind, and instead it was being filled up with randomness, random thoughts, images, sounds, words, that were beyond your control.

Eventually, at high doses, mindfuck can get so bad that it obliterates all voluntary control of the mind, even to the point of destroying your own sense of self and identity.

I took everything from a gram to 5 grams. However my favorite experiences are at 3.5 grams. The visuals are amazing, I usually close my eyes and listen to instrumentals in my earphones. The effects are fantastic.

I have had electronic sounds several times too. It sounds like a laser tag or something scifi. I've also heard a voice on high doses. It's had many things to say.

As much as you can get down fresh. Very gentle experience and less nausea.

I like 5 grams a lot. Sometimes I do 4 then another 2 about 30 min later and that’s pretty fucking awesome lol I recommend tea if u haven’t tried it.

Yeah I don’t know if that’s the best advice. I’m sure I could get several hundred fresh grams down if I wanted to.

I managed to get 77 fresh down once and had one of the best trips of my life.

A lot of variables to consider. Anecdotally I say that there are less bad trips with fresh than dried.

One time me and a buddy ate 280 wet grams all together and he was freaking the fuck out.

Sheesh I always see some intense things, the visuals are similar to a rick and morty episode always some unexplainable things going on. Even talk to God or at least what I perceive as God and I’m  always provided with some great insight. Very powerful medicine. Even more powerful when it’s grown with love.

I concur with many of the other commenters here: my favorite dosage is 3.5 grams dried. I find the visual effects are very interesting both with eyes closed and eyes open at that level. With open eyes, the most intense effect I've had was a sensation that I was viewing the room I was in with a 360 degree radial view (difficult to describe it better than that with mere words), but there are also more subtle effects like shadows that logically shouldn't be moving at all flowing on the walls like water. I often experience synesthesia when listening to music with closed eyes at this dosage, which is fantastic.

This is also the dosage where I really start to feel my sense of self dissolve, which can sometimes be a horrifying experience, but it's always refreshing to come back to myself afterwards. I find that this can be one of the more medicinal effects of mushrooms - it's remarkable to me that you can go so far from your sense of self and return psychologically intact, and I often come out a trip like that feeling extremely grateful that I exist, which is a wonderful feeling to have.

That said, I also experience some less-than-desirable effects at 3.5 grams. Sometimes, I get really hot from eating that many mushrooms. I sweat a lot and have to focus on drinking lots of cool water.

I had my heart rate slow drastically at 3.5gs on one of my trips while speaking with God. He mentioned that I was an old soul and if I wanted to be at peace he would take me, and I shed a tear because part of me wanted to go but the other 3/4ths thought about my family and how selfish I’d be to leave this planet where so many are in pain. I only ever actually done them with my eyes shut. The 5gs trip I had my eyes open and the swirls were prevalent. Very intense and powerful trip that day. I have had the shadows move when I was 2gs in. Very awesome time these provide. Taught me I may be powerful but the shrooms are way more powerful than I ever could imagine.

It’s madness sometimes when you really sit back and think about it. Occasionally I think ; “I’m too old for this shit” lol. A few weeks back I did actually have a bad trip; the first bad trip id say in about 30 years. I wasn’t screaming and writhing around or anything like that, it was just bad. After about 5 hours, after wifey had gone to bed leaving me as I’d be “alright in the morning”, I tried to go to bed to see if that would help. As soon as the lights went out, I felt instantly suffocated by my quilt, and the bedroom came alive. Hahaha, 35 years of tripping and I was still sort of expecting (hoping.....) the trip would end just because I was suffering and wanted to go to sleep.....

Take care all, its a jungle!

Can’t seem to find my sweet spot, or I’m just not experienced enough. Grew my own, have done 3.5 twice, and 5G once. 2 alone, and one with a friend....I keep hearing him say “people take too little “ was thinking going for 7G next....Any advice on how to surrender? I always end up in this place where I feel like I’m being pulled. Same song , same early feeling , that I’ve been here a thousand times. I have not broken through yet, and my last 3.5, I got sent straight to that place, and fought my dumb ass off the whole trip. I really want to experience the places , teachings, and self reflection everyone speaks of, so I can share this with as many as will listen...Any advice is appreciated

You fight off the feeling of being pulled and don't surrender to it you mean? I don't know, I haven't had that many experiences. I have had this feeling of being pulled too though, or something like that. Like I said in another post on the P.E forum that I think the best thing to do is to relax and get into a state of trance. Can your expectations ruin it or something, and you become too self aware?

Everyone is different, however I would just add an additional 3 grams on top of wherever you feel gets you that almost there feeling. If that doesn’t help, you should ask yourself if any other drugs are affecting your ability to trip

I always end up in this place where I feel like I’m being pulled. Same song , same early feeling , that I’ve been here a thousand times. I have not broken through yet, and my last 3.5, I got sent straight to that place, and fought my dumb ass off the whole trip. I really want to experience the places , teachings, and self reflection everyone speaks of, so I can share this with as many as will listen...Any advice is appreciated





It does often take quite a few experiences before you can truly let go. And when you do, it is a whole different trip. I suggest you stick to your usual 3.5g, but do it alone, and be ready. I know you can never be ready, but when the fear comes, don’t run away. Instead, question it, question yourself, question what it is that is actually frisghteneing you. And then try to “let go”. I sometimes think it’s more a case of accepting the fear rather than letting go. You may get to a point, after you have faced up to whatever it is that is making you anxious, where you realise what’s the worst that can happen; it’s a sort of “fuck it” moment. What have you got to lose? Every time you have been here, you have resisted, it has been miserable. Don’t resist. Go with it.

Once you do have that breakthrough, there’s no going back brother :feelingfunky:

I am not yet sure what my favorite dose is, but 4 grams with harmalas and greens is a pretty sweet experience. Less doesn't do a whole lot to me and more I simply haven't had material to explore well enough...
My most interesting trip has been with 7 grams + harmalas + greens which gave me something like level 3.5 trip, a bit more than 3 but certainly not 4... I will go higher in future as I want to reach that mythical level 5 :mushroom2: :mushroom2: :mushroom2: :mushroom2: :mushroom2:

We are never too old for an adventure. I've been in those tight spots before but it's always fun afterwards.


  It's hard to let go. It requires a lvl of discipline that's almost inhuman. That's why I return to the psychedelic realms. When I'm dead I'll aquire that lvl of discipline.

No less than 3.5 dry grams. My favorite is probably somewhere between 4-6 dry grams, but if I do it right that is a harrowing experience. I have to dose high to get the effects I want with mushrooms, but that also means that it can be a terrifying and thoroughly harrowing experience. Still, you can't go wrong with 3.5 grams.

I want to dose high enough that I get auditory hallucinations, CEVs, intense mindfuck (if not egodeath), flashes of hallucination and disconnection from the body, reliving memories, that kind of thing. And that inevitably leads to feeling like you're dying/going to die.





:whathesaid:

But not so much as to blackout 'cause that sort of wastes the trip - like having had a dream that must have been really cool only you just can't quite recall it...

I've only taken a few, but my last one which was 6.5g dry was my favourite by far.
It got me out of the "chasing highs" mindset with drugs and as horrifying as it was at the time, I've grown very fond of it.

I might actually try a smaller dose just to see what that feels like if you've never done that. Its kind of a whole different game. I think that its actually not true that more shrooms=more profound. You can have really profound experiences on smaller doses. I find that on higher doses I'm too distracted/overwhelmed to get as much out of it, but I'm also a noob...

This is awesome guys, let’s keep this going. I’ve tried 3.5 a few times now, think I’m just a chicken shit to let go.... I will get there. That’s why I was hoping 7G might give me no choice, lol

You just have to understand the mushroom is more powerful than we are, once you accept it, it’ll embrace you it’s like going swimming, we don’t go to the deep end when we don’t know how to swim unless we are pushed in there, the shrooms will push us in the deep end if we let them. Fighting it only makes for a bad trip, let go of whatever is holding you back and succumb to the feeling it is trying to provide. My advice to anyone who’s barely trying them is don’t fight it, go with the flow and ride the wave, it’ll be scary because it’s the unknown, at higher doses you can’t fight it, the wave is either gonna swallow you whole or you’re going to ride it.

A thing I have noticed with threshhold doses twice now is that they bring to surface my dissatisfaction towards things and makes me somewhat contemplative in a sober way. Whereas on a dose that produces the psychedelic feeling I am too distracted by that experience to ponder in a sober way.

The auditory hallucinations I get are very electronic, kindof like the sounds in old video games, or somewhat similar to the sounds made by some birds. Repetitive electronic sounds, simple series of monochromatic notes in repetition, sometimes series of notes in scales, repeated over and over. It's also somewhat similar to the noises made by a casino when all the games are going off.

Mindfuck is uncontrollable nonsense that happens in your mind, kindof like noise but more organized, that you don't have any voluntary control over. It's like if there were random words and noises and other things like images and thoughts occurring in your mind, but they were nonsensical and random and they were beyond your control. Randomness popping in your mind uncontrollably. Like as if you were slowly losing control over your own mind, and instead it was being filled up with randomness, random thoughts, images, sounds, words, that were beyond your control.

Eventually, at high doses, mindfuck can get so bad that it obliterates all voluntary control of the mind, even to the point of destroying your own sense of self and identity.




I had auditory hallucinations in my last trip during the comeup on my bed, until I got up to celebrate the peak lol. It was kind of nuts and beautiful at the same time, but not at all bothering. You described it nicely. The birdlike sounds and electricity. There was like a synchronicity to them also, like I could hear my mind working or being worked at. I also had a strong sense of a musical groove going on in me, like I tuned into a frequency on a radio or something. It was kind of like what Ott sounds like, or like a wah-wah-chick-a kind of thing :lol:


:shaqwiggle:


mindfuck was pretty intense on the comeup...

Right after a peak i found my self laying on the floor on a tarp and i was hearing these weird lazer sounds, bleeps and bloops. It did indeed sound metallic.

Enough to have strong visuals. This dose can range anywhere from 4-7g roughly. Depending on potency.

Between 2-3.5grams dry because it's not too little but it's not too much for me.
