First time 1.5g cubes * 1
    #26831955 - 07/19/20 05:20 AM (3 years, 6 months ago)

Hey so Im still feeling the effects right now and I hope this will be a little coherent at least.

So I did lemon tek mushroom tea with 3g 18-hour dried GTs. But it wasn't 3g just for me, I shared half of the tea with my wife. So its probably 1.5g per person. I wanted more but my wife was a little afraid and all so I told her we would take a very small dose. And the fact that the mushrooms hadn't been dried for 24h means there may still be some water weight in there even though they were cracker dry. Also we took them on empty stomachs.

So we ingested the tea 2 hours ago. Did a meditation session for 20 minutes and then moved outdoors for 45 minutes. We noticed how much stones glitter in the sun light. Never thought about it before. We got really tired outside and started yawning so we moved back home. I thought we wouldn't feel anything at all but we started laughing a lot and got hungry. Feeling high in a good way. Still energetic enough to move around etc. Now my wife is just watching Bob's Burger while I'm writing this.

Im not disappointed because its still a nice feeling. But I didn't grow mushrooms to feel a little body high. I wanted the experience of healing my mind and finding this creative well inside of me. Anyways, I think I will test again in few days but then maybe full on 4 grams dry cubes.


Also a side note, I don't like the scale I used. IT was a regular kitchen scale and the resolution was on 1g level so couldn't be really sure on exactly how much it was. So I ordered a new scale that should get here in the middle of the week. How long should I wait for the next trip?

I’d suggest you will be fine waiting until next weekend. I’d recommend 3g or even better 3.5g dry. I would then wait for at least 2 weeks, and then take the plunge with 5g. You will get the healing experience you desire at 5g. You will feel the full effects of psychedelics at 3.5g, but you will still maintain an element of control. The real healing comes when you don’t have much choice but to see where the mushrooms take you.

I fully agree with you that the dose you both took could be fun and nice, but you can get that from cannabis. The real magic with mushrooms happens when the laws of the universe are re-written, time slows down, and you lose all links to your physical realm. And then the nice visuals and giggly feelings become immaterial; it’s the overwhelming filling every cell with bliss you want, the creation of the universe, time travel, space travel,  mind reading, dream recall in perfect 3D memory, full access to your subconscious, and the ridding of “the ego” allowing you to see the world with wonder through the eyes of a child again. That’s what you really want :awesome:

Good luck
DJ Ed

Hey Mr.Ed!

How fitting that you would be the first person to answer, it was your recipe we followed this morning. You understand me perfectly. If my goal was to get high, I would just have taken something else. Interestingly I haven't ingested a drug for four year, and haven't had an alcoholic beverage for just as long. So the feelings today were not boring, but not within the aim either.

Mr. Ed, what do you think if I go straight to 5g next week? I did quit my anti-anxiety medication a couple weeks ago to properly trip. After trying this dose today I want to be sure that next time will be the full experience. Also, I'm not feeling afraid and really want to learn something.

Thank you for the luck wishes :smile:

Hey yes, fantastic, and I do wish you the best of luck. Whatever happens, you are going to have one of the most, if not the most, profound experience of your life.

The jump to 5g is no laughing matter, and I would be wrong to advise you do that, without you first weighing up all the pros and cons and deciding for yourself. But you aren’t the first and you won’t be the last. I would definitely recommend that you SO trip sits for you. Google “psychedelic experience”, head over to Erowid, and there are some great guides on there, both for you the journeyman, and for your SO the guide. You don’t want her to panic when you’re pleading with her that you’re dying, as that can be tough for someone with little experience themselves. She needs to comfort you only, maybe hug you, maybe change your setting. (The mushrooms can be very persuasive, that for the first time in history, you are the one that is really going to die. Try to remember you will come through the other side, and it will be beautiful; the grass IS greener)

And of course, you may not get the full blown ego dissolution that can be so worrying....until you breakthrough. More often than not, I don’t think I’m dying, so don’t overthink this, you have to experience it first.

And don’t forget your blanket. If all else fails, wrap yourself in the comfort of your blanket, lie down, and go with the flow.

I’m almost excited for you; that first breakthrough is spectacular :thumbup:

❤️
DJ Ed

Congrats on your first trip!

DJ Ed gave the perfect advice so I don't need to reiterate what he said.

I'd just like to comment on that quote above to this extent:

Temper your expectations

If you feel ready to jump in the higher doses and, especially if you have a sitter, go for it! I think that is the goal with these substances, to see how deep one can go and learn/heal from the journeys.

BUT, a higher dose doesn't guarantee any healing. It doesn't even guarantee a manageable experience. I've had a couple of experiences where I just felt like I was going mad. Those places are part of the journey, as nothing is gained without overcoming turmoil.

Either way, take the higher dose! Have your wife be your sitter and if she needs some pointers on being a sitter, check out

The Psychedelic Explorer's Guide: Safe, Therapeutic, and Sacred Journeys

by James Fadiman.

Awesome tips for sitters there.

Excited to hear your report, keep us updated! I'm planning my first 5g trip for late August when I can get a buddy to be my sitter.

:cheers:

Woah there buddy. You tipped your toes in the water and that's really good, you will bank this experience for the future.

The small dose that you took is not going to be like the heroic 5g. I would suggest taking DJs advice on this one.
3.5g is a full blown psychedelic trip and it's only gets weirder the higher you go.  You seem like you can handle yourself on the road here so just be cautious if you really want to explore far.

Also, don't believe the mushrooms. They can get you thinking stupid things.

Haha nice words. I reckon Socrateshroom can handle himself though, and is ready. He is such a well adjusted young man, with his head on his shoulders, and his heart in the right place. There’s only so long you can keep upping the dose before you need to take that plunge over the precipice. We’ve all been there at that fight or flight moment; and we plunge over the edge having let go of our physical grip on reality, and we’ll, let’s not spoil it for Socrateshroom, he will never ever forget it.

Ooh final thought. Looks like my “psychedelic summerhouse” is getting its roof on tomorrow, so if nothing else, it will be dry, safe, secure, and isolated from my daughter. So Friday night going to try some PES Amazonian ice cubes :awesome: And if Socrateshroom goes through with the 5g, I will follow up with 5.4g fresh Amazonian. Might even go for my Red Boy; tried a 0.2g microdose, and it felt strong! 5g of that could be stupendous!. Haven.t doses over 4.1g in at least 3 years GULP

Bravery not stupidity. I can only warn you as I've made that mistake. I went from 5g to 8g and holy hell that kept me away for like 18 months.

Yes, the deep ones take some integration. I had a 20 year gap! Though it was quite a bit higher than 8g :eek:

The first real integration, though, only started when I revisited mushrooms. Full circle!

:heart: DJ Ed

Thank you for the kind words! Whether I'm ready or not, whatever that means, I need to take that leap. One of my issues is that I always make excuses for why I'm not "ready". And these excuses are very idiotic because if my life was perfectly in order, I probably wouldn't be seeking the mushroom experience. So I need to remind myself of that.

Also, I think LosTresOjos was referring to OP to the degree that OP wants to go from 1.5g to 5g. Ive had a handful of 3 and 3.5g experiences so, although still a huge leap to 5g, isn't as massive as going from 1.5g.

Either way, I've realized over the last few months that larger doses are necessary as lower doses (1-2g) feel like just getting "high". Although small doses can be fun, they always leave me lacking. And with my sobriety from alcohol and weed, I guess I was using lower doses to fill that void.

Anyway, OP, it's a big leap but if you have experience with other substances, and a sitter just in case, I'd say go for it if you feel comfortable. If you don't have experience with other psychedelic substances (including weed), I'd say maybe try 3-3.5g first.

just chiming in- I just tried some I grew, first time I did shrooms in 10-15 yrs since in high school, so I started small with 1g, then 1:30-2 hrs later took another 1g because I wasn't really feeling the 1g... And finally started to see more vivid colors/ get a feeling of warmth and sweat a little (idk why I always sweat on acid)

Played some VR Tetris and watched Aladin with my mom. Kept it together really well, no one would have known I was tripping... I took acid this last year. Took 2 hits Father's Day with my amigo and I enjoyed the shrooms more. I did not feel as scatter-brained as on lsd. I felt clearer minded, but definitely wished I had taken more. I will do 3.5g next time :smile: see where that takes me, with a 5g dose experience saved for the future! LOL I def don't wanna do that without a plan and a better set/setting (Currently recovering from a car accident wearing a back brace).
Just got a game I'd love playing on shrooms: Synth Riders, I like it more than the other music games I've played (Beat Saber, Pistol Whip, and Oh Shape) I like Synthwave lol


Good stuff guys! tell us how your next one goes :wink:
