TRILEPTAL and LEXAPRO prescription, okay for shrooms??

I have been wanting to trip out on shrooms. I only have on thing stoping me. I take anti-depressants. The two that I mentioned in the title, do they have any ill effects when on shrooms? Should I go off my meds for a little while before I trip? If so, how long should I wait? Would I be taking a big risk? Thanks for any and all help.

I don't know about Trileptal, but Lexapro is an SSRI which doesn't seem to have a negative impact. My s/o who takes Lexapro had no ill effects, but it was an extremely low dose (1g dry; hardly worth the effort, but it was a first time). The only thing I have heard about SSRI's is that it may diminish the effect somewhat.
Another shroomery member whose girlfriend in on Lexapro also reports no ill effects, and they trip together about once a month.
MAOI's are a no-no.
I have some weblinks if you want them, just can't seem to located them at the moment.

I would suggest just being careful, mabie you should start out on a low dose and if it goes well, you may want to move up.

Would quitting the meds for a certain number of days stop the effects of them mixing with the shrooms? Is there any set amount of time it takes for the drugs to clear out of you system?

I imagine trileptal will greatly change your tripping ability, it works on the inhibitory pathways (gaba) and that directly inhibits seretonin. So you may very well not trip.

Try a google search on them, it should say how long they stay in your system on some site. I find that drinking lots of water can speed up the time that *some* drugs leave your system.
