The 10 gram challenge..
#4462092 - 07/27/05 10:28 PM (18 years, 6 months ago) |

Edit (again): Some people obviously aren't reading the whole thread, which is cool I guess, but I changed my mind a while back...no need to keep convincing me 
Edit: OOPs...this isnt' about salvia...I must have messed up with the subcategory thing...if a mod can change it they would be my hero 
Yeah I know...I write a lot, I can't help it. If you wanna skip past some semi-important stuff then go strait to the good stuff at paragraph 8 (including this one). Mind you you'd be doing me a nice favour by reading through who whole thing...and who knows...it might be interesting lol. Yeah, you don't have to tell me, 10 grams is A LOT of shrooms, even for someone experienced...but when it comes to proving a point, I do crazy things lol.
Ok, well first a little background on my friend. He's gonna seem like a guy who I shouldn't be friends with, but he is a good guy, I'm just talking about a few negitive things about him right now, because thats whats important for the point I'm making and the question I'm asking.
Basically, he thinks he knows everything about drugs. His older brother and his friends are huge druggies..like they'll do anything but heroin. Because of this, he thinks they know everything about what they do. An example of this is that eating more than two grams of shrooms at a time puts you at risk of ODing, and doing it too much will put holes in your stomach (my friends bro told me this RIGHT after I started tripping for the first time...nice guy lol).
Anyhow, he told me he knows this is a fact, because my other friend had a sezure (sp?) when he ate 4 grams. Now I'm gonna be honest, I have no clue why this was happened, but I know people who have eatin more than that, and I've read all over the internet (mostly here) that you can't OD unless you eat more than humanly possible.
I told my friend this, and he's like "Yeah well who with any experience would go post about it on the internet, there's no way a stoner would trip out, then post about it somewhere." Well oops, will yah look at that...he's talking to someone who does it lol, and I'm sure 95% if not more of the trip reports here and at erowid are legit.
I'm not gonna argue about that with him, but ODing on 4 grams...I've gotta challenge that. I told him it was bullshit, and he said something like this "Well if you eat 10 grams without puking, I'll buy the shrooms for you, but if you puke, you've gotta give me $100"
Ouch. 10 grams. Pretty intense, expecially if you've only tripped once, and tripped hella hard of 2 grams. Plus, he says if you puke, you've ODed. Yeah, more bullshit...but whatever. Even though I have a low tolerence, and I'm sure a lot of people here will think I'm crazy for even thinking about this, I really wanna show my friend up. I'm confident I can take anything shrooms throw at me. Yeah, I'm a rookie..but I really do. The only think I'm not to eager to take on is a bad trip, which may happen, but if it does, I'll be ready.
Now onto the important stuff. I didn't puke the first time I tripped (2 grams), but does the amount you eat affect the likelyhood of puking? I didn't feel like puking at all with 2 grams, but with 5 times that amount I don't know what could happen.
Also, what could I do to reduce the likelyhood of puking. Don't trip on an empty stomach? Drink a lot during the come up? Smoke a cigarette? Shroom the day before, to build up a tolerance or something? Or is 10 g's just pretty much an auto puke? lol. I really don't care about reducing my trip, if anything that would probably be good lol.
I know this whole thing sounds stupid, and it's not because I want a free trip, it's because I hate all these rumors and shit that go around about drugs. A lot of dealers where I live think this (they're associated with my friend), so by doing this I could possibly eliminate a rumour going around my entire town...thats why I'm doing it. It's not as simple as taking a snippet off the internet or something with people around here, they've got to see it to beleive it. I guess this is understandable, but it means I've gotta go through way more effort to prove my point lol.
The only surcumstance that I'll refrain from doing this is if it will actually effect my physical health, or if I really do have a good chance of puking if I do it, because that would do the opposite of what I'm trying to do, and cost me $100 at the same time. But I'd like to hear peoples oppinoins on this matter (even though I'm probably gonna hear that jumping from 2 to 10 grams is one of the dumbest things I could do lol). Thanks...and try to understand where I'm coming from.

I would do it... but i have a lot more experience with higher doses. Maybe you should trip a few more times beforehand to get your bearings.

It's not going to physically hurt you, but I think this is a terrible idea. The difference between 2 grams and 10 grams, well it's even more different than night and day. Hell, I wouldn't even eat ten grams at once. You're fixing to bite off more than you can chew (no pun). Let them think what they want, this is unnecessary and unwise.
Not only that, but it's very disrespectful to the fungus, it needs respect.

Not only that, but the look of a person tripping on that high a dose, what you might do, will probbaly freak your friends out and they might take you to the hospital... especilly if they think you can OD and die... this is a terrible idea.

Alright, I figured I wasn't being disrespectful because I was trying to clear up things that weren't true. But I've got respect for shrooms, after the experience I had I don't think you couldn't have respect. You seem to know what your talking about, and although I really don't see it from your perspective, I'll have to agree because I'm really not that experienced. I just wanna clear things up in my town, and even though I honestly think I can handle it, I don't wanna be disrespectful to the shrooms .
I know 2 grams doesn't sound like a lot, but if you haven't read the trip I had check it out (I'll link it in a sec), after that, I feel like I'm ready for anything. But if it's disrespectful, I won't...
And to whoever called me an idiot..I'm not gonna start nothin..but just back off man...

I have taken 8 grams, then another 4 grams just before the peak for a 12 gram total. I did not get sick or suffer any negative side effects.
The important thing is to plan things out (at least one day in advance) and to create an atmosphere where you feel perfectly happy and safe. And drink lots of water. BUT ESPECIALLY HAVE AN EXPERIENCED SITTER YOU CAN TRUST!!! A good sitter is very important for the safe and happy environment your need to have.
That mushrooms could burn a hole in your stomach seems pretty far fetched to me. I think your friend is just taking urban myths and shit like that too seriously. He also seems like a person you wouldn?t really want to trip with (at least I wouldn?t).
Anyway happy tripping dude.

Trust me dude, no matter how much you triped on two grams, it would be magnified 1000 times, if you thought it couldn't get more intense... it does... frankly I don't see eating a mega dose you're not ready for clearing up anything with these people, might just make it worse with them.
I would like to read your report though.

The person who challeneged you to eat 10 grams seems to have little or no concern with your mental or physical health. Whether or not you end up vomitting would be a footnote to a trip like that. And unless you want some mild post-traumatic stress disorder from people thinking it would be funny to mess with the tripper, you probably shouldn't hang around kids like you've described, at least during your trip.

you can't handle it though. no one without much much more experience than us can. you say you know what you're getting yourself into, but you don't. 3.5 grams is more than twice as intense as 2 grams. the intensity of the trip goes up exponentially. which means that you're not going to trip 5 times as hard as your first trip, it'll be much harder than that. you'll go some place you never thought existed.
hey, do what you want though. you'll be guarranteed to learn a valuable lesson.

Alright thanks for the tip, but your probably more experienced than me, so you'd be able to handle it better. And yeah I know the whole hole in your stomach thing is bullshit, that was the point of me wanting to do this in the first place .
And gdman...magnified by 1000 times?? Well I don't sound stupid for wanting to go that far when I'm ready right? Because your right, I couldn't imagine anything more intense then what happened to me, I know it's out there, but I couldn't imagine it. You don't know how happy I am to hear that it can go so much further than that . But don't worry...I'm a patient guy, I'd rather progress in years then months.

Good report, your friends sound like real assholes, I'd definitely smack them around after, being the center of attention for a bunch of non-tripping people and having them fuck with you is terrible.
There really is no reason to eat so many mushrooms, I'd stick to about four grams. I'd also look for something else to do, be alone or with one other tripper, listen to good music through headphones, etc.

Seriously, I've seen 3.5 grams kick the asses of very experienced trippers. Psychedelics are incredible, gifts to mankind, but they are not toys.

Yeah people keep sayin that about my friends . They were just doing it in good fun and I'm sure if I had have told them to stop they would have. And it was my decision to be the only one tripping, and trust me...by the way I was acting I'm surprised they weren't watching me more lol. To be honest I think it added to the trip, they did other stuff too that I guess I forgot to add, but it was probably just as entertaining for me as it was to them .
And what your saying is you don't reccomend tripping huge? Not even with lots of expereince? I'm a curiouse guy, once I get to a point I'll always want to know what the next level is. I know thats probably a bad thing, but it's just the way I am. Maybe when I get to 4 grams I'll feel it's time to stop though, who knows.
And I'm quite looking forward to tripping alone by the way, hopefully I'll be able to learn something about myself, which is something I didn't get out of my first trip.

Never think you're ready for a bad trip.
When I first tried shrooms I had no idea how many to take, but like an idiot I ate a rediculous amount. I'd done lots of acid, had strong trips, bad trips etc and thought I could handle anything. I ended up curled up on the floor like a vegetable stuck in a 5 second brain loop, repeating the same thought over and over again. I was aware of existing as something trapped in insanity that would never end, made worse by time distortions that can make it feel alot longer than it actually is. It was terrifying and there was no way to break it with such a high amount.

Just like a rollercoaster, some people end up puking and hating it, while others do okay. You will need more experience before you try for 10 grams, but that is just my opinion. It also depends on your own psyche and what kind of person you are.
It was on the 8+4 gram trip that I experienced my only ego death trip. This was an intensely beautiful and spiritual mind fuck that has changed me PERMANTENTLY. But these changes were good changes.
Now imagine if you had a bad trip at such a high dose.
If you are taking a heroic dose because someone double dared you to, that is a BIG mistake. Who knows, you may be ready for it... but what's the rush? The problem is we don't know you here so we tend to give conservative estimates on what you should or shouldn't take.
Anyways I wish you the best of luck, and I'm sending good vibes to you!

I seriously hope for your well-being that you are no longer even considering this.
I had tripped 3 times on 3.5g and I thought I had seen it all. Then the 4th time I tripped I had 4g and it was so strong I couldn't handle it... within the first 30 minutes; it just kept getting stronger for 3 hours or so. You never know where they can take you till you get there. I've tripped a decent amount of times now and I would never like to see a person eat 8g of shrooms, much less eat close to that many shrooms myself. This is a very dangerous idea for a person who is inexperienced.

Just think about what you were considering man. Here's the scenario:
"Dude I cant believe you ate 10 grams without puking!"
"see? I told you it was bullshit!"
"I guess you were right... ready to trip?"
"errr..."
...
Unprepared trips are totally unpredictable, in any amount (i experience ego death at ~5 fresh grams of [wild] cubensis). An unpredictable trip at 10 grams is like playing Russian roulette.

I have done between 7-9 grams before but this was after i had tripped maybe like 15-20 times before on mushrooms and acid.
I have never taken a full ten before but comparing to 2 grams is like comparing a firecracker to a fuckin nuclear explosion.

If you want to prove that 4g isn't an OD, then a 4g trip sounds much much more tangible considering your situation. An even better idea would be to hand them a book.

I've done a 14gram trip and a 10 gram trip.
Nothing too crazy to get scared about, but I still pefere my occasional 1/4's.

  "There is a world beyond ours, a world that is far away, nearby, and invisible. And there is where God lives, where the dead live, the spirits and the saints, a world where everything has already happened and everything is known. That world talks. It has a language of its own. I report what it says. The sacred mushroom takes me by the hand and brings me to the world where everything is known. It is they, the sacred mushrooms, that speak in a way I can understand."

If you want to call puking an OD then yes you can. I have eaten a quater dried and puked my guts out. The reason in this? Its the magic of the mushrooms.
If you were to eat too many, your body would reject it, thus the throwing up. No matter how much you eat, chances are you will not be on the ground foaming at the mouth. Your body will release that overdose orally before you can... overdose.

Heck, I'll do it. Get me in touch with your "friends" and I'll take the 10 grams. I'm just kidding though, I wouldn't try it, and neither should you.
You should just talk to them and try to renegotiate. Tell them that 10 grams may pose a mental risk, which you don't want to take, and try to renegotiate to 5 grams. 5 grams will probably give you a serious ass-kicking, but probably nothing unenjoyable. It's always tempting to prove a point, but keep in mind lots of people have been so intent on proving their points that they have harmed themselves trying to prove them.
Just renegotiate to 5 grams, they'll do that.

No matter how hard you've tripped on 2 grams, NOTHING can prepare you for the world a 10 gram trip would entail. When I first moved up from an 8th(3.5 grams) to an 8th and a half(5.2), I had tripped over 40 times. I consider myself extremely experienced and almost impervious to anything a psychadelic could throw my way (having survived 2, what I would call, bad trips). The trip turned into me thinking I was dying because I had a cramp. A single cramp threw me into a world where I thought my life was going to end within the hour. I didn't want to lay down, I didn't want to close my eyes because the fear of death was so real. Luckily, I had a good friend and an experienced tripper by my side to help me through the experience. This just shows you how unstable your moods can be on high dose trips. Things get shakier and shakier as your experience is lower and your dose is higher.
Nothing can prepare you for a trip that high, let alone a scenario where you actually have no one to really trust.

Yeah I know...I write a lot, I can't help it. If you wanna skip past some semi-important stuff then go strait to the good stuff at paragraph 8 (including this one). Mind you you'd be doing me a nice favour by reading through who whole thing...and who knows...it might be interesting lol. Yeah, you don't have to tell me, 10 grams is A LOT of shrooms, even for someone experienced...but when it comes to proving a point, I do crazy things lol.
Ok, well first a little background on my friend. He's gonna seem like a guy who I shouldn't be friends with, but he is a good guy, I'm just talking about a few negitive things about him right now, because thats whats important for the point I'm making and the question I'm asking.
Basically, he thinks he knows everything about drugs. His older brother and his friends are huge druggies..like they'll do anything but heroin. Because of this, he thinks they know everything about what they do. An example of this is that eating more than two grams of shrooms at a time puts you at risk of ODing, and doing it too much will put holes in your stomach (my friends bro told me this RIGHT after I started tripping for the first time...nice guy lol).
Anyhow, he told me he knows this is a fact, because my other friend had a sezure (sp?) when he ate 4 grams. Now I'm gonna be honest, I have no clue why this was happened, but I know people who have eatin more than that, and I've read all over the internet (mostly here) that you can't OD unless you eat more than humanly possible.
I told my friend this, and he's like "Yeah well who with any experience would go post about it on the internet, there's no way a stoner would trip out, then post about it somewhere." Well oops, will yah look at that...he's talking to someone who does it lol, and I'm sure 95% if not more of the trip reports here and at erowid are legit.
I'm not gonna argue about that with him, but ODing on 4 grams...I've gotta challenge that. I told him it was bullshit, and he said something like this "Well if you eat 10 grams without puking, I'll buy the shrooms for you, but if you puke, you've gotta give me $100"
Ouch. 10 grams. Pretty intense, expecially if you've only tripped once, and tripped hella hard of 2 grams. Plus, he says if you puke, you've ODed. Yeah, more bullshit...but whatever. Even though I have a low tolerence, and I'm sure a lot of people here will think I'm crazy for even thinking about this, I really wanna show my friend up. I'm confident I can take anything shrooms throw at me. Yeah, I'm a rookie..but I really do. The only think I'm not to eager to take on is a bad trip, which may happen, but if it does, I'll be ready.
Now onto the important stuff. I didn't puke the first time I tripped (2 grams), but does the amount you eat affect the likelyhood of puking? I didn't feel like puking at all with 2 grams, but with 5 times that amount I don't know what could happen.
Also, what could I do to reduce the likelyhood of puking. Don't trip on an empty stomach? Drink a lot during the come up? Smoke a cigarette? Shroom the day before, to build up a tolerance or something? Or is 10 g's just pretty much an auto puke? lol. I really don't care about reducing my trip, if anything that would probably be good lol.
I know this whole thing sounds stupid, and it's not because I want a free trip, it's because I hate all these rumors and shit that go around about drugs. A lot of dealers where I live think this (they're associated with my friend), so by doing this I could possibly eliminate a rumour going around my entire town...thats why I'm doing it. It's not as simple as taking a snippet off the internet or something with people around here, they've got to see it to beleive it. I guess this is understandable, but it means I've gotta go through way more effort to prove my point lol.
The only surcumstance that I'll refrain from doing this is if it will actually effect my physical health, or if I really do have a good chance of puking if I do it, because that would do the opposite of what I'm trying to do, and cost me $100 at the same time. But I'd like to hear peoples oppinoins on this matter (even though I'm probably gonna hear that jumping from 2 to 10 grams is one of the dumbest things I could do lol). Thanks...and try to understand where I'm coming from.
I think you are going into the trip with the wrong mindset. Yes, I know for a fact that 10g will not hurt you physically. And you're probably capable of handling the trip. However, eating 10 grams to prove someone wrong is the wrong direction to be going into that level of a trip, and I think it could result in a negative experience. When you go into that level of a trip you need to have inner peace, and I think that the tension brought about by the scenario could be amplified greatly, and could result in a very uncomfortable situation (for you, tripping). You don't have to prove the person wrong, because you know that you are right, and he is wrong. You do not have to correct his ignorance... it isn't your responsibility. Who cares about the money, it isn't that important, but going into a level 5 trip with the right mindset is important. I just wouldn't do it in these circumstances, how about you get the 10 grams and split it with your friend, 5 grams each. That way you take a trip together, and he will know.
Getting him to do it may be a challenge. During the trip you may feel like you are dying, and instead of trying to fight it, find comfort in it. Timothy Leary would calm down acid users going through this rebirth by telling them "Yes, you are dying, you are becoming one with the earth and being reborn through your body" and so on. You cannot fight the feelings, only sink further into them. It is much like quicksand, the more you struggle, the more horrific it becomes. The only thing you can do is let it swallow you whole and let it bring you to the other side.
As to not puking. Don't eat anything for 16 hours before you trip. Eating would give you something to throw up, which you don't want. I would try to not drink much liquid, but I've noticed when I trip I piss a LOT. So you may drink water DURING the trip, but try to refrain from it BEFORE. I've eaten 8 grams and didn't experience the urge to throw up. A lot of the battle is in your head, if you constantly dwell on throwing up, it will be present in your mind, and chances are, you will. Just don't think about, don't even worry about it, you won't throw up if you don't have anything to throw up, and there's no reason that you should throw up. Mushrooms are not toxic to you, OD'ing on them would be like OD'ing on cereal. It just can't happen. You can recall to that during your trip for comfort, you cannot OD on mushrooms. Just stay calm. If you feel like you are getting very uncomfortable, change your setting. Go to a different room, or go outside and have a smoke. If you feel comfortable smoking, it will bring you comfort in the trip as well. I wouldn't go into smoking any ganja, as it is a whole other ball of wax and you don't wanna mix the two up for your first time doing a high dose trip... maybe next time 
I can't emphasize enough that if you start feeling motion sickness (for whatever reason), get up and move around, and change your setting. Just find joy in the fact that you are getting to experience what you're experiencing. Forget about everyone else there, you don't have a reason to entertain them, or really do anything for them. A trip is for you, no one else; remember that.
If you do decide to just eat 10 grams, know that your body is fine. Mushrooms are a gift from mother earth... and if you believe in this sorta stuff, your spirit is going through it for a reason. And if all else fails, it will all be over in 8 hours. 
Take care, and good luck.
EIDT: After reading through the posts and such, it sounds like you are going to have a bunch of people around if you decide to do this. I would like to strongly discourage this. People who aren't tripping have no business hanging around people who are doing spiritual trips. You do not NEED that added stress of trying to fulfill social obligations for people who aren't tripping. I would suggest that if you do the 10 grams, have your friend eat 2 grams and spend the night with you, and it just be the two of you.
Maybe it is just me, but I really don't like the feeling that I'm not being socially acceptable (by sitting there with my eyes closed, or not talking, or not interacting with people, etc) --- and it's always present in my trips when I trip with people who aren't on anything. I just don't like it. Gets me all paranoid. 
Now there's no need to freak out if you friend gets bored or something and calls up a buddy to come over, because trying to stop him from doing it would be more stress than just letting it happen. But make sure there's stuff to do beforehand, plan it out. Go rent some tapes of the Smurfs or a cartoon movie, or some old fantasy movie (like the Neverending Story... nothing that requires a lot of attention --like fight club, i saw that once tripping, bad idea). Rent some PS2 games or something, buy some cigars (I love cigars while tripping, kills time and is comforting to me). Just plan it out, and be safe. 
You'll be fine if you tell yourself you are. I know you haven't done more than 10 grams, and really nothing can prepare you for it, to a point. But that is true for each incriment of mushrooms. Nothing can prepare you for 4 grams, for 6 grams, for 8 grams. It's the same story each time you go up. You just need to have spiritual peace, and be ready to meet mother earth face to face. She will have a lot to tell you.
Take care my friend. And be safe. Mushrooms are a beautiful thing, how they treat you is a matter of how you treat them.

The real CHALLENGE is in having insightful, wonderful experiences on LOW doses. Any fool can eat massive doses and trip real hard. It takes someone else to ingest a small dose and trip well.

Yes, that basically says it all.
I have used 3gr.. 6gr.. 12 grams.. and I outgrowed those doses.
Nowadays I use 0.25-2.5gr mushrooms, and if the mushrooms are strong a "mere" 0.25-1.5gr will suffice.
I can have a great insightful time on 0.25gr I have had bilocation and clairvoyant entity dialog on 0.5gr 1-2.5gr can deliver me to the doorstep of Heaven or Hell.
Tripping is a combination of THE MUSHROOM TEACHER and THE PSYCHEDELIC CARNIVAL. If you take more mushrooms THE PSYCHEDELIC CARNIVAL will become too wild to really listen and work with the lessons of THE MUSHROOM TEACHER. If you know where to find him within yourself, THE MUSHROOM TEACHER speaks just as loud at 1gr as he does on 10gr. You just have to WORK with the Teacher, whereas the Carnival is just tossed in your lap in whatever quantity you took.
I have tripped for 12 years, over 100 times and up to 12 grams dried. But I would eat a turd right outta my ass if that would prevent a bad trip as excruciating as the one I once had on 2 grams. It cost me over a year to recover from that one.
10gr? Not smart. Unless you want to experience something beyond all boundaries. It can be a dream, or a nightmare, but it will be REAL. You only tripped once on 2gr. Contrary to most people's opinion that can be a very potent dose.
--You can Unite with God and be Blessed by utter Divinity for four hours --You can Dance with Angels on the edge of sanity --Your body can get sicker than you ever imagined to be possible --You can go insane for 15.000 seconds, every single one of those seconds burning in your soul with unique agonies you were incapable to fathom before.

Alright thanks for all the insight. I really appriciate it. I think for my next trip I'll just move up to 3.5 grams and trip with other people tripping (and maybe a babysitter), or I'll do a lower dose and trip alone.
And in response to Wiccan, I'll admit that I have only expereinced "the psychedelic carnival", and I am quite looking forward to learning something from shrooms.

Bravo 
It starts out with the carnival, but only your mindset can bring out the Teacher. Considering you had such a heman trip on 2gr..
I strongly recommend you take low doses up to half an eighth never more often than once a month and really put effort and concentration into *feeling* what it does to you and to *listen* to your thoughts. Then, within a few Sessions, you'll discover that the Mushroom Teacher is present always and once he has your attention the teachings can begin 
Tripping has immeasurably enriched my life. Words cannot describe. But the most valuable trips were almost always those on moderate to low doses. At a high dose you are highly fragmented, highly distracted and a week later you perhaps remember 1/100 of what was dished out to you.
Low to medium doses (lessay 0.25-2.5gr) can be more beneficial because you are better able to understand, like whispering to get someone to pay attention, whereas high doses are more something like screaming into the ear of someone who's hard of hearing: the message will come across, but his hearing gets even more numbed.
If you had such an intense 2gr your first time out, why go for 3.5gr now? I guarantee you that if you were to take a 2gr dose once every 2 months that they on the whole become increasingly meaningful to you. If you take more, or more often, you risk numbing yourself.
Stronger booze does not make a better party, in fact beer & wine parties are often more fun that liquor parties.

Theirs nothing wrong with an expirenced tripper testing out deep water, your not going to do any damage to your body or mind.
it takes your full body weight in dry mushrooms to od.

  "There is a world beyond ours, a world that is far away, nearby, and invisible. And there is where God lives, where the dead live, the spirits and the saints, a world where everything has already happened and everything is known. That world talks. It has a language of its own. I report what it says. The sacred mushroom takes me by the hand and brings me to the world where everything is known. It is they, the sacred mushrooms, that speak in a way I can understand."

After probably over 130 shroom trips, and probably 50 acid trips, 7 grams shrooms plus a good blotter hit had me friggen out there. I was experienced enough to handle it, but if it had been 10 grams of shrooms, it would have been even more difficult, and I may have not had such a great time, it was hard enough to move or do anything other then feel and "think".
People do have seizures on shrooms and acid by the way, its likly the person was telling the truth he knew someone who had one on 4 grams. I believe trips very stressful to the body, when bad thoughts kick in, particularly with issues of blood pressure change (standing up fast or going from laying down to standing up fast), manifest themselves physically. I've seen it happen a few times, but its rare, and usually doesnt repeat itself it seems.. Its usually more "tremors" though, is very quick, and the person is fine (even after cat scans and hospital visits)..my girl went through it twice, once on acid, once on shrooms, but all the factors above played into it, and she has been fine since.
But yeah, 10 grams really would be about 1000 times stronger then 2 grams, with those being your first and second trips, it may even feel like more.
Good luck with your ventures!

wow, 10g is like trying to go to Lv 5 and trying to talk to god.
Hope them mushies are super weak.
2g is nothing compared to 10g. I would have to say the trip will be exponential at 10g vs 2g
i have taken 7g but i didn't make it to lv5 but everything around me was melting away, literally. People, walls, etc...

Very true, I came close to one with my last 5 gram trip. When it happens it usually takes you completely by surprise, because it isn't always in relation to the dose you're on.

Last time I did 10g I had an 8 hour psychotic episode. Complete loss of control. By far the worst experience of my life, took me weeks to recover.

Yes, listen to ShroomOmatic. There is nothing heroic about taking ridiculous doses. And you may be sorry you did. 2-4g is the sweetspot.

5 grams of silly-potent cubes and I quickly slipped into a dream state. I was running around like a naked ape and I don't remember at hing of that. I remember somehow being left in my room, coming out of god-knows where, surprised by the feeling of impending rebirth- I can't explain it, but it was the most exhilarating feeling- only to be killed seconds later. I was stuck in a seemingly infinite birth-death loop and it felt like hell. I've heard that the birth-death loop is, for many, the pinnacle of psychedelic experience. I got there simply because of dosage, and so I was not ready for it. A potentially beautiful thing was a hellish nightmare.
A tea made from about 20 grams of fresh panaeolus subbalteatus (a much lower dose than the earlier trip) and a peaceful day in a forest next to a gentle creek and I was shown the most amazing things. Everything was natural- nothing alienated me. I opened up and let the harmonious energy of everything pulse through me and I felt it as love.
So, to sum it up. There is much more to a trip than dosage. You don't want to end up in a place that you are not prepared to understand/deal with. IF you take that leap (and I'm glad to hear that you're rethinking it), you will probably be left in another world with no map to show how you got there. You're 3 years old one day, then you wake up the next with a beard, a job, and 3-year old of your own. Take babysteps. It will be more enriching, more enjoyable and more lasting. Best of luck.

I've taken doses over 10 grams and I don't recommend them to anyone not completely confident in his/her ability to maintain their composure somewhat on high doses.
I had a friend that wanted to make tea for us all. He said that he knew how and that he would take care of all of it. I gave him 2oz. of shrooms and let him do his thing. I didn't watch him and he used the whole bag. when the tea was made he brought it out in three glasses and another friend, he and I all started drinking.
The other friend and I had asked for it to be chilled so that I could get it down faster. The guy that made it said that he preferred to drink it warm over a longer period of time. Well, after we had chugged our tea and he had been sipping for some time, he looked over and said, "I'm already starting to feel this, I think maybe that I shouldn't have used the whole bag".
To say the least, the other friend and I ended up on Mr.Toads wild ride for what seemed like eternity. Towards the end we just wanted relief from the insanity. The catch phrase for the night was, "Somethings got to give". At one point I thought that if I cut my head off and buried it in the back yard, that I could get away from what I was going through. I had to be talked out of it.
The experience was mind blowing. I didn't reach ego loss that night just complete mind blending torture. I have reached ego loss at 5 grams with 3 grams syrian rue to potentuate it.
I didn't puke, I didn't die(just thought I was dying), and as far as I know I don't have any holes in my stomach.

Same here. If someone dared me to take 10g's id up and do it, no questions. But then again i have a history with shrooms and can compose myself extremely well on them. But still...

Sorry for the bump but I just saw this. My very first time I did mushroom, I took 12 grams. Yeah, I thought I was going to die and my boyfriend at the time actually has experience with shrooms so I dont know why he thought it was a good idea for both of us to split an ounce.
I would say it was a level 5 trip because the next morning I was engaged and a week later married lol. We usually joke that the drugs made us get married. He was proposing to me as a lizard and his face was melting.
Anyway, we freaked out pretty bad but we did not puke, as much as we wanted to. We even started to flush the rest of the shrooms we had (I think about 3 ounces)because I thought they were evil and a friend came over and fished them out lol.
IMO, I refuse to do that much again, we usually do like 5 grams at most now.

hehe an oz is 28 gms Too much too quick eh? I find if you want to take a higher dose its better to ease into it. Ive never had a bad trip on shrooms, but then again, the most i ate for my initial dose was 7 g's followed by pick me ups at certain points in the night. But hey, if you two are still together i guess at least ONE good thing came out of the trip

I know 28 grams is an ounce but someone told me long ago it was 24 so I keep thinking its 24. Like a dime bag of weed, is it 2.5 or 4, seems people have varying opinions lol.
Yes, we are still together, been married since 96. I still blame the mushrooms lol.

I did ten grams once. I laid on the floor and thought I was dieing for two hours, but it seemed like ten hours. Then things smoothed out and I got the most intense visuals. It was almost like 5 hits of decent acid for the next 5 or six hours. I would be really hesitant to do it again because of the first two hours though.

With the right state of mind, those two hours could be very beneficial. However, I know what you mean: I wouldn't want to go through a death-rebirth cycle without expecting it with some preparation

i have many friends who regularly eat 15g dried plus a few ounces of chocolate to boost it. they trip balls, obviously. BUT, these guys are much older and have been tripping for over 30 years. they just sit down and start eating mushrooms one after another until they start to get really "high," then they stop... if they feel like it....
but as far as levels go, level 4 is the most visually intense experience. level 5 is a completely different realm. level 5 can happen at ANY dosage and is defined by ego-loss, NOT by aliens coming down from the sky and talking to you.
when i ate almost 4g of homegrown i tripped so hard that i was glad i didn't eat more. i had an awesome trip, but any more would have been too much. i was already getting visuals that were competing with 300mcg of LSD....
you'd be a fool to eat 10g dried until you know what you're doing.

IMO this is a bad idea... eating 10 grams of shrooms just to prove a point. Thats not what shrooms are about.
I understand where you're coming from, you're trying to defend your good mushy friends but you gotta understand that you will only be disrespecting the mushrooms. You can't just waltz into a 10 gram mushrooms experience just to see you if you'll puke or not.
Now, if you are defiantely going to do it, eat the 10 grams over a span of like 40 minutes - 1 hour. This will help you not to puke because if you munch them all in 5 minutes they will hit you HARD. And there is a real chance of you to puke because the transition from sober to tripping can be real nausiating, specially when it's 10 grams hitting you at once.
I really suggest you forget about this whole thing, and know that your friend it just an idiot. If you must, why not just take 5 grams? (It's more than what that guy took and he had a seizure)
Eating an insane amount of shrooms just to prove a point is very stupid. And by the experience that I assume you have, I will tell you right now...
DO NOT EAT 10 GRAMS TO PROVE YOUR POINT. Why? because you will not prove anything except that you will trip harder than you could ever imagine and an experience like this needs to be better justified.
Be safe. Be smart.

10g is an aweful lot for a person whos only tripped on 2g... if your really set on your point find some proof on the internet, dose a few more times increasing your dose untill you can handle 10g and then offer it again...

I went from 2-7 and it was a HUGE difference, but I still had a ton of fun tripping balls for 8 hours.

My 2nd mushroom trip was exacly like that. I took 4.375 (an 8th and a quarter of an 8th) of powdered shrooms mixed with OJ, they came on 5 minutes after drinking the juice, and hit me like a hammer. Then I died, I was not ready for that, I could not let go, it was the most horrifying experience in my life to date. I was crying, begging my friends for help, but they could not. Maybe one day with more experience I will go back there, but for now I'm sticking to my 8ths,and eating them slowly.
P.S. trying acid this weekend for the first time, 1 hit of thin white blotter.

I would have to put up a serious effort to eat 10 grams in a year.
Is drinking a bottle of gin better than having one or two?

I once took 10.5 on accident, one night I bought an 8th from my neighbor, about an hour or so in I was like "I want another 8th" so I went back down to purchase the 8th from him, well turns out dude was asleep and his roommate was the only one up but took it upon himself to sell it to me, grabbed the bag went back upstairs to eat it down I took a big handful and threw it back and there were still more shrooms in the bottom, me thinking I was just tripping nuts and didnt grab as many as I thought grabbed another big handful and put the rest back, turns out that 8th was actually a quarter and fuck me if that wasnt one of the biggest ass kickings I've ever gotten from shrooms lmao.
At one point I thought I was paralyzed and couldnt move from my couch all I could do was stare up at my ceiling and watch fractal hexagons cover my ceiling, almost like a kaleidoscope for about half an hour before I was able to feel myself gain some lateral control of my limbs lmao.

I did a 28gram trip. Was a spiritual awakening but I'm fairly experienced with psychs at this point having done a lot as a child. Most vivid 3-d visuals I've ever had was on that trip. I thought I was an astronaut or martian on another planet for a lot of the trip. It was quite literally out of this world. One of my more recent experiences was with shroom extract. My friend boiled down 14 grams of mushrooms and put it into a chocolate. Was a 5 hour trip but come up hit me in 10 minutes and went to straight euphoria. Smoked weed after the 5 hours and trip lasted about another 9 hours. was absolutely one of the best experiences of my entire life.

Did 10g dry libs once, lost consciousness and slipped over onto a piece of broken glass and got a ringworm infection. Still, the trees were vibrating and the sky looked like a nebula. Fucking worth it tbh
