I tripped for the first time last week. I hadn't really had too much to eat in the days leading up to the trip, and i took a whole 1/8 and 1500mg of Vitamin C. I was with two pretty good guy friends of mine that had tripped plenty b4. (That was just some background) So everything is cool at first i'm listening to Bob Marley and just enjoying the beginnings of the trip.Laughing to myself about everything. Some time passed and we put in Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. As the movie began, my trip went down hill. I've seen that movie a billion times sober, but had know idea how differnt visually and audibly (sp?, it sounded different). My brain couldn't handle how trippy the movie was, and i had to have them turn it off. Then we put on some cartoon, and i thought i saw a cartoon person eating part of a human body w/ blood dripping down his mouth (turns out it was just a piece of fruit). Either way from this point forward my trip was bad. I thought i was drowning, i thought that I had swallowed my tongue on several occasions, even as i was talking and smoking cigarretes, ya kno, stuff ur obviously using ur tongue to do...I really would like to trip again, and have a good trip this time like my friends. I think that now that i know what to expect, things would go a lot smoother. What does everyone think?? All suggestions and thoughts are welcomed!

I've only tripped a few times myself, but I know a few factors which make for a good or bad trip. First, don't trip if you've been stressed out any time during the week leading up to the trip. Trip in an environment you're completely cofortable in, and turn your phone off. :P I'd avoid movies until you've become more comfortable with the drug. Stay away from crowds, even small crowds, because then you'll start to freak out. It's best to be with people who are tripping with you rather then people who are lucid, but this isn't as important. I agree with you though, now that you know what to expect more, you'll have a better time on your next trip. Good luck!

When i tripped i found people utterly fasinating and wanted to be around them. Wierdiest feeling ever cause i really dont give a shit about being around other people. But I felt compassion for them in some way and therefore wanted to be around them.

The thing to remember is allways trip with people you really trust, close friends. Also, it's a good idea to start with mild shrooms first then work your way up to the strong ones. But, yeah, tv's not always great on shrooms cause your mind can turn what your viewing into anything. I know what u meen when u talk about having weird thoughts, like you'd swallowed your tongue... The trick is not to trust your thoughts 2 much, when you're tripping, your mind tends to come up with random thoughts but if you take them to be real it can be a slippery sloap. I once thought i was the reincarnation of Jesus, here to save the world. A good thing is to play gentle music and just lie on your back. Hope your next 1 is more pleasant!

Simply, you took too big of a dose for you first time. 3.5 grams is a fairly decent dose, especially with potent mushrooms. Next time you decide to venture into the psychedelic realm via mushrooms, I would suggest 1.7-2 grams. This will allow you to be more in control and learn what the experience is like. If things get bad, just remember that you ate mushrooms and you will come down in a few hours. It is important to not try to fight the experience, let it overtake you, merge with it, enjoy it. Just go with the flow. The mushroom does not want to and will not hurt you.
I hope your future trips bring you more pleasure and enlightenment.

Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas you say? that has to be my favorite movie to watch on shrooms. I hope that your next time is better. You really just have to accept everything that occurs, and decide that you have the power to enjoy anything that happens. i find that the fealing of fear or seeing scary things on television actually feels good. just remind yourself that its all in your head. thats where a bad trip occurs. all in your head.
