Some more Terence McKenna Mushroom related questions

why do people feel they have to lie that shrooms don't give them a headache?
is it because they get laughed at in real life for being wusses?
is it because they have small penises?
explain to me spirituallee

question_for_joo said: 1. Part of Terence McKenna's contention about the whole cult of mushroom monkey evolution into man theory was that they had orgies and that was cause mushrooms lead to increased sexual arousal but that's never been my experience. Do you all get horny on mushrooms??
2. Was Terence's rare brain disease a way of 'god' trying to warn everyone that taking lots and lots of hallucinogens all your life is not want he wants us to do?
3. What is the symbolism of the terrible headache we get after tripping? It's counterintuitive to me. It seems to me like if we have the courage to take a big dose and have these intense scary experiences then nature should reward us for that. THe headache almost seems like god's punishment. What's the dilly yo?
#1 Low doses of shrooms will heighten sexual response.
#2 The specialists treating McKenna stated they felt his use of Magic Mushrooms had no bearing on his condition. Look at all the people who use shrooms and no brain tumors.
#3 Learning is an endless struggle. I rarely get headaches after power plants. Yet if I do its part of the trip. Usually the benefits come later. Just as a thought, a headache may be the shrooms way of telling you, to do some growing on your own and don't count on them for everything. Who knows?

Well I don't know if when you say power plants you mean something other than mushrooms. I'm talking about mushrooms. I get a headache afterwards. 99% of people get a headache afterwards. Kids on the internet like to say they don't get a headache after they do drugs cause they front that they're a tough guy. I don't understand that, there's no shame in the post drug-use headache.

I've never had a head ache after using mushrooms, are you drinking alcohol while you're tripping? Where did you get the statistic 99%?

Dude, spend $16 at Walgreens and buy a self-take blood-pressure cuff. I've gone through a couple and they're about 6 mm less than the actual systolic/diastolic numbers, but if you're getting a headache, and it's not from becoming emotionally upset at some psychodynamic stuff coming out, then I strongly recommend that you take your blood pressure before you dose, and during the peak. Practice or have someone who knows how do it for you. Until I developed hypertension, I never got headaches from any psychedelics. In fact, I used to use slivers of blotter acid to counteract migraine attacks (usually triggered by alcohol) because there were always some unconverted ergot compounds in the acid to shrink my swollen arteries during a migraine.
I don't know about you, but I'm past 50 and the body changes. I had hypertension at 40, possibly earlier. You really don't want a stroke during a trip - or at any time.

I get headaches all the time.
Edit for stupid people: I don't blame the mushrooms. I get headaches just fine without them as well.
