So I tripped last night with my girl in my room for my bday which is today.We both to a 1/8 bag...she left like a gram left over and we were sooooooo gone.I just had to call someone to look over us for a while so I called my friend to do so.After a bout an hour or so..I was experiencing megalomania and also I couldn't move my body to get up out my bed and walk I felt like my nerves were shot...i had the same experience the 1st time i smoked marijuana.Anyone else had this happen to?

Sounds pretty typical of a mushroom trip in which lots of anxiety is present. Did you focus on just letting go and enjoying the experience?
Whenever my ego is threatened on a shroom trip, it can come up with some pretty crazy stuff. I've become a megalomaniac while tripping before also. When you resist or fear some of the effects of tripping, your body will lock up/shut down and you will play right into the drama of your ego.
Take a smaller dose next time, relax and *go with the flow.* Shrooms are like a party. When you're THERE, joining the party, things are AWESOME. When you reject it and decide it's a scene you don't want part of, stuff can get hairy. Well, just imagine that this party is here for YOU. And join in. Positive, positive. Forward, forward. Joy, joy.
If all you can do is lay on the bed motionless, relax and let it happen.

I don't know. Try not to focus on the negative stuff though. Your next trip will be a fresh start.

the mushroom could have gotten pissed that you were taking it just to get fucked up or, goooooooone, as you put it.
you greatly underestimate this substance and what it can do. if you cant handle a little numbness, then you may want to stay away from mushrooms.
3.5g is a pretty high dose. on 1.75 i've become one with a chair and felt like......well......a chair.
that is far from numbness my friend. on 5 grams i've completely lost touch with my surroundings for what seemed like days or weeks at a time.

anxiety and negative thoughts are part of the trip IMO. I couldn't imagine a truly awesome trip without them.
Learn to love it, i guess...

i used to trip off of 1/4's all the time and thought they were strong shrooms. Now that i grow my own i can see how weak a lot of those trips were compared to the mushies i have now.
The past two trips i consumed 3.5 grams and both times ended up not being able to do anything but curl up and lie down for 3 hrs. Both times i had to do a lot of mental fighting to keep the trip from going really bad, i wouldn't label them a bad trip per se, but they were both rough rides. The last trip was a bit better because i was at my home instead of camping, but just the sheer power of these babies not only glued me to the couch, but 2 of my other friends as well .
So from now on im definitely starting with a lower dose and seeing where it takes me, rememer you can always take more but you can't undo what you've already dosed.
-------------------- To get really high is to forget yourself. And to forget yourself is to see everything else. And to see everything else is to become an understanding molecule in evolution, a conscious tool of the universe. And I think every human being should be a conscious tool of the universe. . . . -JG i really am glad you came back to us instead of taking the other path. *hug* -A_S (RIP your final words to me will never be forgotten)
