Why dont I see anything?!

hey,
The reason for my post is to ask experienced shroomerz for any possibilities of why i dont hallucinate. I have tried mushrooms at least 7 times and the most intense visuals I have ever seen was the ceiling moving a little bit and wood grains in my cabinet start to breathe. My first trip was 1/2 eight with no effects. everytrip after that was at minimun an eighth. the most i have taken was 5 grams and that was when i had mild hallucinations. what the heck is the deal? my buddies trip hard off an eigth.

The mushrooms you took could have undergone a number of problems in drying, such as overheating. Did you grown them yourself? Either way, I suggest you try mushrooms from another source. Also, just making sure, but 1/8 oz is of dried not wet shroomies, right? Are you taking any anti-depressant or SSRI medication? Best of luck in finding out your problem, keep us posted.

I often don't hallucinate much even on high doses. Yet sometimes, I see the craziest stuff on low doses. And it's not about potency, as the high dose, minimal visual-yielding trips have always been the most powerful mentally.

Yes that is dry and no i am not on any meds. I have had mental effects and i tell me friends that i trip but i just dont see anything. they say "man, u havn't tripped then." anyways, they have all been from different sources but I remember who i got the strong batch from. I did not grow them myself cause i live in CA and as you all know they wont ship a damn thing out here.

yes, that is what i have been told. This could be true to some extent but I took an eighth at an A Perfect Circle concert and I felt so free, I just didn't see anything but for the first time i did feel a peak.

Hallucinations are such a minor part of the mushroom experience. I much prefer egoloss, exploring your mind, meditating and melting away, and other things mushrooms can offer. But yeah, hallucinations can certainly be amusing

maybe you're focussing too hard to 'see stuff' just enjoy the ride and see what happens. not everyone hallucinates the same. some of my friend don't have closed eye visuals, ever. I have massive closed eye visuals on a good dose.

Let me offer my say. maybe your tolerance is just high? The first few times ive done about an eight, I saw minor visuals like you did, but I had a body buzz and felt giggly. I need about 70 wet grams to begin to get good visuals and experience a real trip. However the body load gets quite intense starting at 70g though. I feel hot, sweaty, numb and its hard to walk. also you feel flu like and even breathing is a little hard. Maybe try just relaxing and laying on bed and just stare at the ceiling. I trip harder that way than walking around looking at everything and try to make it move, lay back and let things come to you. can you up the dosage?

i think people let this idea build up that you will "see all kinds of crazy shit". its not necessarily all the hype that you hear.
people always blame it on "oh, acid was better in the 60's" bullshit.
take your drugs and enjoy what you get. if its not good enough for you then quit taking them and shut the fuck up.
btw, this post wasnt really directed towards anyone. im just speaking of in general.

stop looking for hallucinations and then they will reveal themselves

Did you trip at night? Many people don't get visuals if there's to much light. Try a dark room!
What others said: let go, enjoy the ride, don't focus to much on the visuals, tripping is more than just visuals, at least it is for me.
edit: You could try some weed...

yeah, you need to let go, its easier for me to let loose when im alone, thats why i say do them alone.
i think that is fucked up dude, i see mad shit! so much i usually just lay down and check out the closed eye and feel very euphoric, upon opening eyes shit just gets crazier.
have you eaten fresh? i find that the brf grown shrooms are no comparison to the wbs grown shrooms, man, 9g fresh wbs grown was just as awesome as 15 fresh brf grown. an eighth of wbs grown is intense as fuck, whereas eighth of brf grown is like "meh..." feels more like 2g of the wbs grown.
try growing on grains if you grow, if you grow grains, then yeah man, let go stop expecting shit, just BE. enjoy the experience for what it is.

I f you want to see visuals than you need to consume more shrooms than you normally take. And then in complete darkenss except for a candle.
thousands of users complain they never see anything and what do they do . Eat shrooms and go surfing, go to a park, go to a forest. The darker the room the more visuals one will see. They are also seen with eyes closesd and a hand capped over the eyes to keep out extra light.
The mazatecs and other Indians of Mexico eat their mushrooms in near total darkness, less a few candles.
They have doneso for thousands of years.
They must know something we white folk do not know.
Many people say to me, "Hey man, or Dude, I get high but I do not see anything."
Well I say to them becasue of the frivelous way they do the shrooms, "Maybe you weren't meant to see anything."
Does that make sense?

wow does wbs(wild bird seed?) shrooms really have higher psilocyblin concentration than wwf/brf grown shrooms? I need a good 70(!) wet grams to begin a real trip and not just a little buzz and minor swirling but an intense mental and visual trip. yes try doing them in the dark, although in a lit room I still get visuals anyway. the lights are pixelated, the walls breathing, etc
