It IS a myth right??

hokay, so I have my small group of friends that I cheif with, and the topic of shrooms has come up a few times. The fact is that all off my friends are wary about trying them because they've all heard that they make you brain bleed. Now I've read some of the previous posts about this topic and so far I've heard nothing supporting that "myth". But I'm still not entirely sure that I want to try them. Will somebody please convince me that they DO NOT in fact make your brain bleed, and give me some info as to where this rumor may have started from? Also, if there's anybody here that beleives that they do, could you please tell me why you beleive so?

It's bullshit, mushrooms don't do anything bad for you.
And they aren't bad for your liver at all, or anything.

Believe me, it's nothing more than a myth. I (as well as countless others) have enjoyed shrooms for many years without brain bleeding. I have no idea where that myth started (in fact that's the first time I've heard it). Hope this helps!

your friends are retards... that myth is about lsd, a drug similar to mushrooms in alot of ways, including how incredibly safe on the user they are (when moderation is used)...

Agreed. If people just thought about it, they'd realize how fake it obviously is. If mushrooms fried your brain or made it bleed, you'd be having a LOT more problems than just colorful hallucinations. In fact, you'd probably be either hospitalized or dead

nah bro, it's a myth. read the 'how hallucinogenic drugs work' thread in.. trip tips, I think? mjshroomer started it. that explains how they actually alter your consciousness and stuff..
myth was started with LSD and stuff. not true in the least. psilocybin[shrooms main active] is pretty close to seratonin from what I understand, and what it basically does is regulates how much seratonin is actually released in your brain. tripping has absolutely nothing to do with a melting brain or chemicals dipping into your spinal cord or any of that.
shrooms, pshysically(like lsd) are one of the safest drugs you can use. taking tylenol for a headache would be more toxic to your body than shrooms OR lsd. mentally.. acid and shrooms both have the potential to send you into a hellride that can 'scar'(*not physically*) your mind for a lifetime.. be careful. moderation=key
edit: lmfao, its in general questions, where this thread is. d'oh!

There is no research whatsoever, nor personal reports that I have read anywhere that indicate brain stem bleeding. This is myth at best. At worst its a lie to keep you away from 'em. Same thing with strycnine tales or instant insanity. All lies from the truly paranoid and uneducated.

while they might not melt your brain you should still watch out because if you ingest enough of these so called "magic" mushrooms your penile size will decrease dramatically. i have posted this tragic photo numerous times but i must reiterate as you are all in great danger.
 if you don't want to have this happen to you PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE never ingest the "magic" mushroom.
peace, and please heed my words as its a horrible feeling when the ladies laugh.

alright kiddies I'm sorry if anyone got upset. my post was in response to this thread which went on last night. http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Cat/0/Number/3624804/an/0/page/1 so i thought that some of you would have been in that thread and saw the obvious sarcasm. maybe next time when i am going for witty, ill be a little more up front so that people don't take my penis posts seriously. on a side note i would like to publicly say that is not my penis, i am the proud owner of a nice average size penis and that beauty is the number one hit on the images.google.com query "small penis". i posted it in the other forum because i thought it was funny. i guess i got a little carried away.
