This is the story of the only mushroom experience I've had to date, and one of the most memorable and amazing things I've ever done in my entire life. I tripped with my girlfriend (AK) of a little over one year, along with one of her sober friends(AO), and 3 of my friends who were only sortof high throughout the ordeal. Two of them had done mushrooms for the first time a week earlier(MB and GC had tripped before, JG had not.) We both planned on consuming one eigth of mushrooms and, although it was a high dose for a first time I had my heart set on that number for some reason and felt it was right to follow my instincts. We were to trip at AO's house as we would have it entirely to ourselves for the entire day and night. It was a rainy spring day and everything seemed right in the world. I was excited and ready for anything. I took one eigth of mushies crushed up (dried shrooms, and not powdered) and thrown into a glass of orange juice, which I gulped down within minutes flat. I took a couple puffs of some decent MJ in a blunt while drinking the OJ. I was feeling a very odd high by the time I finished my glass of OJ, and felt the need to sit down. At this point I was feeling pretty clumsy and anxious, and after knocking over a glass of water and helping to clean it up I came to the conclusion that I should just sit down and let everything wash over me. At this point a very very strange thing happened to me, which I won't take the time to explain in detail in this post. In short, I forgot reality existed and threw my arms up in the air grabbing towards the ceiling for around 15 seconds until my friends caught my attention once again. If you'd like to understand this part in detail, I've posted it here Upon coming to, I came back to reality and started directly at my girlfriend. At this point everyone told me my eyes were almost completely black from pupil dialation, and the bizarre look on my face scared my girlfriend. Literally as soon as I came out I was tripping HARD. AK did not start to feel the shrooms until about 5 to 10 minutes after this point, at which point she crawled across the floor and threw up in the kitchen. As strange as it seems, I was not the least bit affected by my episode minutes earlier, and was completely content and happy. I wanted only to talk and made this very apparent by chatting my brains out to anyone who would listen. I constantly asked the same questions to everyone around me. "AK are you alright? Do you want me to sit by you? I'll sit next to you. I like talking. Talking is good. Is she ok? AK are you ok?" etc etc. My mind was one continuous loop. I was fascinated by the blanket which I had wrapped around me, as it had two layers which I could not figure out for the life of me. AK stopped throwing up and I sat with her while she hugged the garbage for a little longer. She was then walked upstairs by GC and MB, followed by AO so that she could straighten herself up in the mirror. I settled down on the couch next to JG who started to finish the orange juice and shroom concoction that my girlfriend couldn't bring herself to get down. GC returned shortly and told me not to worry about AK, as I must have asked him where she was and when she would be back a hundred times. I constantly thought to myself strange things. "Is reality real? It all feels so bizarre..." My girlfriend AK returned shortly and we attempted to watched TV, which I could not get at all. There was some sort of movie with two men in a cow suit. It was done poorly and I was extremely confused and gave up on watching it. Me, AK, and AO decided to go outside. This was the best decision I've made in my entire life. The outdoors was beautiful to me. The shrooms had hit me much harder than AK, and I was in a blissful state of total confusion. I told AO that I liked her bush(it had bright vibrant pink flowers on it and I found it the most beautiful thing in the world)and spent the next 5 minutes trying to understand why they thought it was such a funny thing to say, despite them continuously explaining the joke to me. I was so overwhelmingly euphoric, sitting there on the front step watching the rain drip down and the trees sway and the bees buzz. Everything seemed in perfect harmony. I uncontrollably told AK that she was the most beautiful wonderful person I had ever met and that she made me so happy. I drank a juice box which tasted exceptionally wonderful and cool on my tongue and then went back inside. AK and I spent the next couple hours on the couch and in AO's room laughing and talking about walls staring at us and lots of dumb shroom talk. The only real visuals I had were extremely short as I could not concentrate on anything for more than a few seconds. I would stare at the carpet and see it flow like water, and think "Wow that's the coolest thing I've ever..." and then drift on to another thought.
As the trip came to an end a few more friends showed up (DP and DD.) We smoked a few bowls, talked about the trip, and went to sleep.
All in all it was the most amazing experience I've had. I'd like to experience mushrooms again, this time experimenting with smaller doses , as the experience was very intense for me and I think I may have a low natural tolerance to Psilocybin/cin.

Wow, I love it when you tweak the shroom high with some weed. Weed goes with most things. Glad you had a pretty good time, nice short-names too, lol! You sound like an annoying tripping, no offense...
-------------------- I believe with the advent of acid we discovered new way to think and it had to do with piecing together new thoughts of mind. Why is it that people think it's so evil? What is it about it that there is scares people so deeply? Because they are afraid that there is more to reality than they have ever confronted. That there are doors that they're afraid to go in and they don't want us to go in there either because if we go in, there we might learn something that they don't know. And that makes us a little out of their control.
