I have taken many of psys over a period of time lsd & dxm and i was just currently experimenting with the mysterious mush. when i 1st tried it i got infatuated with the life beyond and up until the most recent trip everything was perfect.This is my 1st story of my last trip. at first i had eaten about an 1/8 and had a beautiful trip for hours actually when i had my face in the toilet i couldn't have been happier, but that trip would have a far more greater affect on me in the following weeks...i was fine the first week up until the end when i realized i hadn't eaten for 4-5 days and was becoming extremal weak nor had i smoked any pot. Being as weak as i was i had a friend of mine find me some pot i thought mb that would help cure me and even put some food in me tummy. ooh boy was i wrong. as soon as i took my second puff i felt even more nauseated and uncomfortable, in fact i felt so horrible i had to call my grandma because i didn't know what was going on. well she ended up taking me to the hospital, and the hospital told me i was having a marijuana o.d... i was stunned and at the same time relieved that it was pot, because i thought hey mb they can get this thing out of my body. so they take me to the room and run some test on me...so on so forth... they sent me home no meds and just a lil bit of i.v. mb a sleeping aid. When morning came around was when i started to get really bad. i started think'n off track hadn't been eating mb another 3-4 days. g-ma had stopped by to see how i was doing just to find me mumbling on about not feeling good and watching me point at nonsense. anyway she ended up taking me to my regular doc to see if he'd know whats going on. this was the point i poured my soul out about eat'n mushrooms. At this time the doc explained to me about the chemicals in my brain like serotonin and what certain drugs like mush could do. he basically told me that i had depleted my brains serotonin content and that my body was confused about everything because it was gone. so like a good doctor he gave me some very helpful meds including: Prozac(Serotonin re-stabilizer),Xanax(Anxiety reducer),Restrol(sleeping aid). Just so if ur wondering: I don't take any of these meds anymore. I'm still a good friend to the psy and thinking about tring the mush again next week. and if you can anyone please leave feedback id really like to know if this has ever happened to anyone. and also if anyone thinks id be in the safe to try it again. Thank you for reading English. Sage

I've never heard anything like this before. I'm pretty shocked right now. Sorry this happened. I'm pretty uneducated about serotonin and stuff, but it seems logical. What the hospital told you about marijuana OD, was ofcourse BS.. They always say that...
A good pal of mine had a severe panic attack while on marijuana, so he went to the hospital. They told him if he smoked marijuana again, he would die. I swear they get a rise out of that shit.
As far as shrooming again.. Only you can be the judge of that. If you think you can, than go for it. If you think those meds did the trick, you know you have them just in case it happens again.

Troll. There are so many things wrong with that post.
i was fine the first week up until the end when i realized i hadn't eaten for 4-5 days and was becoming extremal weak nor had i smoked any pot.
what does pot have to do with not eaing? And how in gods name could you just "forget" to eat?
and the hospital told me i was having a marijuana o.d... i was stunned and at the same time relieved that it was pot, because i thought hey mb they can get this thing out of my body.
wtf? no hospital is going to say "marijuana od" it was not the pot.
this was the point i poured my soul out about eat'n mushrooms. At this time the doc explained to me about the chemicals in my brain like serotonin and what certain drugs like mush could do. he basically told me that i had depleted my brains serotonin content and that my body was confused about everything because it was gone.
the doctor doesnt know what hes talikng about when it comes to shrooms
so like a good doctor he gave me some very helpful meds including: Prozac(Serotonin re-stabilizer),Xanax(Anxiety reducer),Restrol(sleeping aid).
so like a good doctor? that sound funny. I hate american pharmacology today. The whole throw a pill at it, it will go away thing sucks.

That sounds like a very 1 in a million type occurance. Im just trying to figure out why you didnt eat(that would be most interesting to know about). You can be pretty damn sure that is why you mind did not recuperate, but instead degenerated.
People hallucinate after 5 days without eating(by its self), and if you were forgetting to eat I bet you didnt drink enough water too.
Sounds to me like the effects of a mind blowing trip coupled with no eating due god knows what problem. I would just like to know what made you avoid food or not think about food, that was your big mistake. The marijuana seems to have brought this thing into reality for you by accentuating the problem. Some of the stuff your doctors said really throw me off. Did you also tell your docs that you had not been eating for days? If so they should have made you eat a some food, use Iv for that first.
So how was it getting back to the whole, "I am human therefore I eat food" thing? Im just glad that you still support mushroom use instead of blaming this hospital visit on the mushrooms entirely.

Among all my questions, My point was partly that marijuana will make you sick if you have not been eating for days on end.
Right, I doubt you were "avoiding" food. Sometimes, and especially after a trip, you dont feel hungry for a day, thats not that uncommon, but at some point it is common knowledge that you have to eat even if it doesnt appeal to you, or else what happened to you, would be a more common occurence. Im sure those shrooms made this happen to you, but thats only the eating part of the scenario.
I have always found food and eating to be kinda disgusting when tripping too. Those lingering after effects I could imagine could do the same thing. As far as serotonin problems from mushrooms. Extacy and, starving yourself, yes. From mushrooms, No unless coupled with starving yourself. I to this day would suggest that anyone who isnt coming down from a trip in a more normal way, eat a big-ass cheeseburger for dinner the next day. Most importantly because it is so high in protein. You brain NEEDS protein, the active parts of the brain depend on protein. You dont have to assimilate to you old ways mentally and sometimes you cant after a good dose of mushrooms. But you do have to go back to your eating habits, or else mild shock and anxiety attacks could take hold due to the nervous system basically, "freaking out".
Im totally with you man, I understand. Your case is just very extreem so it is harder to understand.

yes i could agree with almost everything you say, and btw u made me look at the eating thing being an issue.but i had family feeding me and i was ingesting food mb not the greatest amount of food, but none the less i was eating. i was also bedridden didn't want to do anything. i had to be forced to do things. mb lack of energy due to not enough food. but there was just something different about these episodes. i never felt like this b4 in my life i really thought i was dieing as well did my family. not saing ur rong or its because of my eating habits just saying that this isn't a normal reaction with me. i love the mush and i was looking for some input on the idea of taking the journey again. i mean could it possably have ben the verm in the mush to make me feel this way?

I strongly suggest that you NEVER take mushrooms again.
Going through all this might mean that you cannot handle mushrooms psychologically. To take more of them probably is a mistake and possibly a tragic one.
Your misadventures sound like you are not the one to experiment with psychedelics.

Ya, by not eating, I thought you meant not eating.
Were you depressed, lethargic, what was it? I think some people here could give you some good advise if you were more specific about what it is that happened to you.
The more you have disagreed with me the more I am beggining to think you should just stick with lsd. Im not about to say what wiccan seeker said, but still..... Psilocybin does resemble serotonin way more so than lsd.... It is also very much more physical per unit of trip-intensity..........

Avoid hallucinogens for a good while............ I thought, Due to your post that was not very clear, that you were as extatic as the first time you used mushrooms. The fact that you did feel the way you did, and it felt very bad, and not normal for you.
Seriously you blew a fuse. The moment when psychedelics make you start to feel depressed and totally seperate from your old self, that can be a good thing, but for most people that is an extreem after effect, and you seem very fragile in that way. ....And yes I had a hard time separating your first experience from your last experience with mushrooms.
You seem to have hit a brick wall that was mostly psychosomatic, so thats what makes you fragile. Being like that is not a bad thing, it just mean you are very sensative to mushrooms. So like I said, that kind of thing deserves a break. Next time dont use your mushrooms for illogical extacy and feeling good, use it to heal.

Mean green aint my bag baby, or, I dont know shit about its possible effects.
Vermiculite had nothing to do with it, im sure there was not much of it in what you ate.
Psilocybin and dmt is VERY similar to serotonin. Its amazing really. This link provides some very interesting insight into the dmt molecule as well as harmaline. Dmt is so very similare to serotonin. Lsd looks like a spider web when compared to the visual of psilocybin pictured in this link.

ty so could it be that my levels of serotonin were just affected by the mush? thats what im getting from it. the thing is with mush i guess i was very abusive and i didn't treat it with the intellect i needed. now i miss it. i just like the thought proses a whole lot better on mush than any thing else. Its a great way to learn about urself. id just want to give my self more knowledge

Most people dont like it when this is said, but yes, it easily could have done that.
I think you are right about everything you just said. I also agree that this hallucinogen fascilitates thought processes that are a bit different than any other psychedelic.
Good luck next time. Just wait a while, get comforitable with your life and mind. Only then should you venture to see what mushrooms will teach you next time. In my experience it just gets better and better even after all the ups and downs, though none of the downs have been as extreem as your recent experience. They have been as extreem, but I learned from them and I certainly ate very well.

Sage, take a long break from LSD and mushrooms, give it a couple of months. Bi-weekly is really too much for many and you seem to be one of them.
Did you mean to say you ate *contams* with your mushrooms? That not just may have caused many physical symptoms but also shows your judgement is quite impaired.
And you're talking about Prozac, so depression is not new to you.
PLEASE STOP USING PSYCHEDELICS FOR A COUPLE OF MONTHS
Keep your head in one piece.

so you've already got your mind made up that your going to take them again, you just want someone to encourage you. i wouldn't take them for a while. just remember, a break from drugs never hurt anyone. you only get one body and if you fuck it up you cant replace it. dont fry yourself man. good luck

we all know someone like that... but why, when you don't even know him, assume that. I've got no reason to disbelieve him.

But then again no one knows me. I'm just looking for info on a situation that happened in my life that i still hadn't fully come to terms with. I'm not asking the optimistic to come forth and point out reasons to argue belief of the situation. I'm just asking for people help me understand what had happened.
But nice analysis.

sounds like you failed to take care of yourself. whether food looked / smelled good or not, you should have provided yourself with the nutrition you needed. Applesauce is mostly sugar, and dietary fiber. Those will not help you recover from an intense night of tripping.

Seems like he had a depressive episode trigged by psychedelics. Sounds like a case of the 'one in a million who have a bad, long lasting reaction' to them. As much as people here love to turn a blind-eye to the 'risks' of psychedelics (Nothing is 100% safe), they can, and do pose some real ones - even if they are fairly uncommon.
In the end - you are messing with your head, putting chemicals into your brain that changes the way it proccesses things, while 'most of the time' this may not lead to negative consequences, they can in some people.
To me, it sounds like his trip triggered a period of depression, and then during that period of depression is when he stopped eating / etc which then lead to more health problems.

well, i had a meth habit once and i could even put the pipe down long enough to eat some pizza. basically, no amount of drugs ever got me to stop eating for long enough to endanger myself. this kid may have a problem, but it is not drugs. it's called anorexia. there is only one known cure, stop feeling sorry for yourself and making excuses and lying to yourself about how bad your life is. take control of your life, and start eating.

Since when has apetite been a requirement to eat? Unless you were throwing everything up I don't see why you couldn't force yourself to eat something, especially after a few days.

On most drugs I feel almost no need to eat, but I can still feel if my body needs food. I always manage to force down at least a bit of food while tripping if I know I haven't eaten in quite some time. It may taste like cardboard and I may feel bloated and full, but I KNOW I haven't eaten in a long time so I still eat a small amount.

Eating disorders are more then simply 'forcing yourself to eat' - if it was that simple, then Aneroxia wouldnt be such a problem for so many people. Eating disorders can also be a symptom of bigger/deeper problems then simply a matter of 'being hungry or not'.
And, by reading the thread - it seems as if he was suffering from depression for a bit, which can also lead to eating problems also. Its not always as simple as 'just suck it up and force some food down', eating disorders (and depression) can be fairly complex things to deal with.

Everyone, Please stop wit the "how could you not eat food" thing. Its not like i just woke up and said I don't think i want to eat anymore. No. I just could not do so. Food was not appealing to me at the time. I was mentally Disturbed at the time and was not sure what to think. in fact i actually thought during the begging that pot was going to kill me. I'm not someone who just gives up on eating. it was the whole mentality of the after-trip.i just did not know how to help myself... i was completely Dependent.

sage, how tall are you. you stated you were down to 120 and are now at 145. what was your original start weight, how quickly did you get to 120 and how long did it take you to get to 145? i'm curious b/c this sounds familiar.

I believe the fact you did not eat for a while might have put you in an altered state (See Biology of human starvation). Im not gonna come to the defense of a substance with passion, your certain situation sounds very uncommon, hell I never heard of anything like that happening. Sounds like there was something else wrong with you that caused you to react to the drug that way. I would stop taking the acid on a schedule, it is relatively safe, but is known for giving certain individuals temporal to permanent issues.

I've had similar (although far less extreme) things before, where I got depressed - and simply stopped eating for awhile. Normally, it would be about a max of 3 days, then I'd realize I felt like shit, and then would force myself to eat something - during those periods, I'd be super depressed. Even getting up to goto the bathroom would feel like a chore. I'd just want to lay in bed all day, every day - no watching TV, no listening to music, everything just held ZERO interest to me. Combine this with the lethargy and exhaustion from not eating, and it can become a pretty shitty situation. While saying "Just eat" may seem like a simple solution, the issues may often run much deeper than that.
This wasnt linked to drug use, just depression and anxiety.
While Sage may of made the wrong jump of conclusion of 'deathly ill due to mushrooms' - it does seem like the mushrooms triggered a depressive period.
It seems like he had ALOT of issues going on at the time : Depressed, Family split, new father - thats ALOT to have on your plate, and is the kind of thing that could of easily lead to an extreme period of depression with or without drugs, the mushrooms probably just kicked him into it sooner/harder then he would of othrewise.
Now, if these issues are resolved, and you are coping with them better, and are generally in a happier/healthier mindset - then that is good, and you could possibly start tripping again, but you just really need to make sure that those issues are resolved and dealt with, or it could possibly trigger a relapse which would not be a good thing.

I haven't read the entire thread, but is it possible you might have just been sick? Perhaps the mushrooms temporarily weakened your immune system or you just had something coming on already. I know when I'm feeling sick I'll often stop eating almost completely (except for the odd scraps of food I'll force down just so I don't starve myself). Otherwise I'm not quite sure what to say though. Something does sound a little familiar to me, the whole not wanting to eat thing. I've started getting that for the past few months, it's just like, I'd like something to eat, but nothing sounds good, and the thought of actually eating anything we have just seems revolting to have to chew up and swallow and have digesting in my stomache so I just go without eating until something seems a little more appetizing. Not sure if that's what you had, but it sounded similar

You need to follow the other's advice that you chill out with the psychedelics for a while. Loss of appetite is a symptom of depression. As others have said, it could also be a normal sickness that came on at the wrong time when your body was in a weakened state from the mushroom trip. Even so, I would strongly suggest you take a period away from drugs to clear your head and get things straight with yourself. It cannot hurt to do so.
As I side note, both LSD and Psilocybe mushrooms act primarily on the serotonin receptor sites in the brain. They have a very complex interaction with these sites, and do not necessarily deplete the serotonin in the brain, but they definately alter its function.

Hi Sage -
I really felt bad for you after hearing about your experience - it was an unfortunately series of events. When a person becomes disoriented to the point where they are unable to realize that they should eat enough of good quality food, things always get really bad because the longer you do not eat (or drink), the more you forget that you need to. Your brain goes longer and longer without the fuel it needs to think properly. You also should have enough fuel/water for your body to be able to detoxify the drug as well as possible. Then if on top of this you have taken a substance that decreases your desire to eat - Ack ! My grandmother died because she was given drugs that made her not want to eat and she forgot that she needed to drink or eat then she became very confused and died. I have heard that this happens often. You needed food so badly ! When you said you smoked pot when you were so depleted - it made me cringe. When you need rest or food or do not feel good - never take a drug because it takes a lot of energy for a weak body to detoxify the drug - even a drug that is not very toxic. I think that the doctors were right to say that you had worn out your brain (serotinin or whatever) - it is too bad they did not think to ask you if you had eaten enough. If I knew that, I would not have prescibed you even more drugs - like the prescription drugs - I would have asked that a a caring friend or relative take care of you for awhile -feed you good food and drink (whether you want it or not), have you rest and sleep, do not take any drugs and in a few days you would be feeling strong and happy and ready to enjoy your life again.
Why did it happen this way when it did not before ? I don't know if you will ever know. Maybe you were a bit more run down when you took it that time and became less conscious and aware of reality more than usual. Maybe you should take a rest from it for a while and build strength and get a lot of rest so that you can better deal with it. Why not ? There is no rush. You don't want to repeat what happened. Then if/when you decide to do it again, prepare ahead of time by making sure that you have plenty of good easy food around. Maybe prepare some food that needs cooking and make a note of when you should eat it by so that you don't eat it when it has gone bad (in case you are out of it for days (!)and are that disoriented). Also tell some friends to check on you and make sure you are eating and drinking. And leave notes around that say, "My darling, Sage, you must eat and drink."
Take care of yourself.

At first I agreed and thought he was being a bit irrational, but well, he started the thread saying he almost died of exhaustion and starvation and he hadn't eaten for 2 months... Then I believe it changed to forcing himself to eat a bit, then forcing himself to eat applesauce (all he could apparently handle) then it was his family who was force-feeding him. That's really the only thing that would make me suspect this is fake.
On the other hand yeah, I have weeks where I'll wake up feeling hungry, take a look at what there is to eat and just think "O god, there's no way I'm eating any of this" so I don't know what to say

i would react differently to these kinds of post except they say, i didn't eat for a month and the one night i did shrooms made me lose 20-40 lbs and almost die. there was a post a few weeks back almost identical: girl tripping for a week off of shrooms.......also a crack head psycho

I'm having a hard time making sense of the whole story...
You were using mushrooms and acid multiple times a week. Eventually you ended up depressed and didn't want to do anything or eat for a while. Right?
I would think that tripping so often for an extended period of time would certainly eventually lead one to feeling quite burnt out or depressed. Which would then lead to lethargy, apathy, and lack of appetite.
Definitely give psychedelics a long break. And if you decide to use again, space out your trips or you'll end up burning yourself out again.
