I only took 2.1 g and when it was getting pretty close to the peak I was shaking soooo much and I felt so cold. Is it common??

I've never shaken like that while tripping. I don't now what to tell you, it's probably all in your head...
-------------------- "I hate to advocate drugs, alcohol, violence, or insanity to anyone, but they've always worked for me." "Strange memories on this nervous night in Las Vegas. Five years later? Six? It seems like a lifetime, or at least a main era - -the kind of peak that never comes again. San Francisco in the middle sixties was a very special time and place to be a part of. Maybe it meant something. Maybe not, in the long run, but no explanation, no mix of words or music or memories can touch that sense of knowing that you were there and alive in that corner of time and the world. Whatever it meant." Hunter S. Thompson.

I got that a couple of times, but mine seemed to just be coming up jitteryness, a few good inhales/exhales and it went away.

I have had that before on several occasions. I found for myself it was probably a deficiency in something( low blood sugar, or vitamins ). I always keep a boost breakfast drink or three in the fridge now whenever I trip. Usually 15 minutes after slamming one of those down helps the shakes settle

I have only traveled on mushrooms six times and, in 4 of them, I got the cold and trembling for about two hours. It can be extremely uncomfortable. This happens to me specially during acid sessions: I have taken acid 4 times and it happened every time. Although very uncomfortable, I have always seen this shaking as the price to pay before the real and enlightening trip that usually follows.

I did some shrooms last fall and they produced body tremors for me and I got cold. It was about 2 grams. I think it might be linked to a poor diet; but I tripped pretty hard (level 3). I remember listening to some Allman Brothers (An Evening with the Allmans--first set) and shaking as the music barreled through me. Then again it may be just strong doses that make you shake and get cold. But the cold/shaking did not last long--I did some bingers and it went away.

sometimes i get really cold when i'm stoned on weed. like, right after smoking and feeling the effects i'll start to get really cold, especially in my hands and feet. i think it is a vasoconstrictor so maybe mushrooms could do that too...or you could just be tripping.

I get that. Usually getting up and walking around gets rid of it.

Very common. Tibetans call it water sinking into fire, or fire sinking into water. What it is is the alternating feeling between being hot and cold. You are close to breaking through into ego loss when you are getting cold.

Shrooms tend to change your nervous system so drastically that the conversion to this changed state lasts a little while(or for quite some time). Its easy to understand why some people equate this with ego loss, because the process prior to ego loss is just as hard to define and takes part in the same window of time. Even if you are not experiencing what you would consider to be anxiety, you can experience some of the exact same effects on the body like difficult shallow breathing, shaking, and even mental confusion.
I have my own theory as to why this is. You can be fully aware that you just took mushrooms and youll be ok. You could also know that your mind is in control though the vast cognative changes can be very intense. Im pretty much convinced that shaking and the like, are the body's struggle to assimilate/homogenate to the new state and in a way come to terms with it. I think of it as a new physically driven state of anxiety. Neurology seems to become self conscious almost, and acts on this stress by fascilitating a far more primal form of anxiety, one that is not necessarily set off by the mind being in a typical state of anxiety. The brain is a part of the nervous system too as im sure many of you know. The system has sort of been hacked into though, so the body and mind react with anxiety, but nothing like the type of anxiety people are used to, or the types that are easily defined.
In my opinion, This self conscious neurology plays a big part in becoming egoless. PArtly because the brain is going through similare if not simply related changes as the rest of the nervous system. A struggle for total comfort, or in the case of the mind and body as a whole, total assililation of all ideas so as to find the middle ground with all things considered, followed by this "letting go", ego-loss, or extacy. As it pertains to cognition, the end product of this process is extacy, epipheny, the golden mean, the philosophers stone, god, call it what you will. This has something to do with the shakes and other anxiety like symptoms. Like the brain and the rest of the nervous system are constantly feeding off of each other for a sort of an end goal. SO in a way the same thing is happening when the brain is the dominant force that causes a sort of anxiety while on shrooms. When one is focused on the strange new possibilities within your own head rather than the body, the ego loss is all the more fulfilling, and more "whole".

It would have made just as much sense if you had realized that yourself.
I was just trying to paint a picture of why that happens. When I said, "When one is focused on the strange new possibilities within your own head rather than the body, the ego loss is all the more fulfilling, and more whole". I was explaining how full blown ego loss doesnt just happen, its a delicate process, with many ups and downs before you get to the furthest reaches. I do believe that some form of ego loss can just happen automatically via self-conscious neurology, so what I was saying was just another way of saying the same thing you were.
On my most intense trip, (far more intense than 1500 mics of lsd, a large dose of ayahuasca), I thought my body would die(dealt with that and found peace with death, and was fully ready to go). That stopped the shakes and the difficult breathing/dissorientation for the most part. Then I was afraid of loosing my mind, (so I came to terms with that, and rearanged many many things and had many epiphenies, and it felt like the touch of god). I got over my issues with my external environment in those two stages. Then it was like I was shot from a cannon into a place where I was taught things that had nothing to do with myself, and these Ideas just came at my much like the overwhelming visuals. NO logic unless I thought about them after. It was like swimming in a sea of the primal logos, no thought/no self. The information was just "there" automatically and received but not in anyway even remotely resembling my brain, or my fractal memory. I found god in a way. Then in almost perfect reverse order I came back into my body the same way, but it took longer on the way back than it did to get to this strange place(there was no anxiety, just pure astonishment and a sort of heavenly/perfect form of constant realization, and assimilation to my old self.
SOme forms of ego-loss can even occure on low doses of mushrooms etc. This can take the form of new realms of thought that causes such hysterical laughter(self-less beautiful thoughts). Thoughts that even seem alien to you. Not knowing why you are laughing so damn much, or not being able to put it into words Is a good sign that this breakdown of the psyche has atleast begun.

Perhaps you should read this thread a few times. The cold feeling is not something you can just stop by eating. You do know that eating doesn't go very well with consuming psychedelics, right? You could benefit from some reading on these substances.

The shakes has less to do with hot VS cold. Not everything can be explained in 1 or 2 words.
