Diarrhea is balls, but it's a real hassle when tripping, especially outdoors.
The first time I got diarrhea was during my fifth trip. All I had that day were some old noodles which I thought might've been suspect, and later in the afternoon I downed an eigth in the form of around 14 emptied vitamin C gel caps. An hour into the trip I could feel the sloshing and I really had to go, and it was a big inconvenience for me and my group of six that I was guiding through their first trip. I think I mentioned this story in another thread...
Anyway, two weeks later, for a visual aid presentation in english class on shrooms, I decided to do the presentation on shrooms to be funny. I downed two grams as four gel caps, and 45 minutes into the trip, I felt a really sick gassy feeling my gut, but luckily it was nothing and I was able to do my presentation. It wasn't diarrhea, but it still scared the hell out of me and I'm sure they're related.
The third time it happened was two trips ago. I took a gram on an empty stomach after again, having eaten some suspect food--it was really greasy. My stomache started hurting a lot at random intervals. It scared the hell out of me but then it dissapeared as the trip ended, and I did not have to poo. It makes me wonder if it was just a coincidence, since sometimes mild stomachahces do just go away if you hold them in, or if the stomachache was a manifestation of the actives' physiological effects, combined with my paranoia.
The last trip I took was a 5.5 grammer, and I made sure to do this at home, just in case, but there was no stomachache. Instead, there was this vibrating electric feeling my gut the entire time, that I could feel passing through my system as the trip progressed. It wasn't painful nor was it diarrhea, but I'm sure they're related. I can't describe the sensation any more clearly because I only feel it in the psychedelic state, and if I try to think about it, the sensation "morphs" around; when the trip ends, and I'm finally able to think rationally, the sensation is gone, and I end up letting out a huge ass fart. It's kind of cool. I get this sensation during every large dose, actually.
I forgot to mention that during the 5.5 gram trip, I blended the shrooms with ice cream before ingesting them, instead of eating them straight. Might this have made the shrooms easier on my stomach?
Anyone have any input?
