Why was my first shroom trip so intense compared to all my others?

Okay, this was bugging me for a while, but now I've come to terms with it and have realized it's stupid to go into a trip with expectations, but still, I'm rather curious about this.
My first trip was with 1.8 grams. Now this trip was intense. I could never really compare it to anything else before, cause I had only tripped a few times after that. But over the past two months I've tripped 3 times, and since my first trip I've probably tripped about 10 times.
Now I'm not saying by any means this makes me experienced with shrooms, but it at least has given me the idea about what a trip should be. Now that I know this I realized there was something peculiar about my first trip. As I said before, it was intense, and I mean really intense. Every time I try to describe it I think I make it seem a lot less than it actually was, but I mean INTENSE.
Anyhow, since then I have realized what I had was not a normal trip, especially with 1.8 grams. Since then I've had a 9 gram trip and although I was much more insane, the actual intensity of the trip was far far less.
I would kind of compare it's intensity to that of salvia, exept there's sort of a difference. It had all the intensity of a salvia trip without the turbulence (I guess thats a good word to describe it).
So does anyone know what factor could have had such an insane impact on my trip. I would have said it was the shrooms, but many other people at those same shrooms that night - many taking a lot more - and still none of them experienced anything close to what I did.
So does anyone know what else it could have been? I've learned to take shrooms for what they are, and not expect things going into a trip, but at the same time it's kind of depressing to think that I might only get to experience something that amazing once in a lifetime. So if anyone has any idea why my first trip could have been so much more amazingly intense than my others I'd really appreciate it, thanks.

I think your first trip was more intense then your others because it was the first time you were introducing the psylocibin to your mind, so therefore it was more intense.
I've tripped around 10 times so far. My first trip i dosed around 2.2 grams and it was by far my most intense trip. Since then the most ive taken was 3 grams, but that didnt come close to the intesity of my first trip.

I am the exact same way. I agree with EternalEden in that the reason your trip was so intense is because your brain had never experienced tripping, therefore it didn't really know how to handle it and all of the effects were so much more intense.
My first trip was only 1.75 grams but I tripped really hard. I tripped yesterday with twice that much and still tripped really hard, but not with the same intensity. While yes, it is slightly disappointing, at least shrooms still work for you. The cool thing about tripping is that each trip is very different, even if you never reach the intensity that you did your first time.

I can't quite agree with this one, I've heard it a hundred times before I even started tripping. Now I'm not saying every experience was more intense then the others but I've had trips that were more intense way after my first trip. I guess every one is different.

what are you growing them on? BRF shrooms arent as intense as WBS or grains spawned to straw/hay/poo,. IME. but they are ok. had one of my favorite trips off of BRF fresh shroomies though. but dry seemed to lack the intensity.

*shrug* rather than being depressed that you wont be able to experience something as intense/amazing, just be grateful that you got the chance to experience it. All trips are different, your first is just the most memorable (generally speaking of course). You were probably excited about trying it, the satisfaction of discovering a completely new way of seeing things, thinking about things, and viewing the world. Discovering an intensity of emotions that you never thought possible and just the excitement of rediscovering the world through a new point of view. I'll never forget looking up at a cloud and just seeing huge beams of light with horizontal waves of blue running down them. It was the most amazing thing I've seen to date while on shrooms. Not the weirdest thing, but by far the most amazing.
