Horrible rumours about shrooms!
#5793908 - 06/26/06 08:59 PM (17 years, 7 months ago) |

I have heard a couple rumours about shrooms that passed around for a while. One of them was "Your brain bleeds on shrooms" and the other one is "You will kill yourself on them because you can thik you can fly off any ammount". Are these rumours facts or myths?
-------------------- 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.

urban myths spread by people who are too scared or too afraid to try them.

As for the question about flying ... ever heard Bill Hicks?
'Young man on acid, thought he could fly, jumped out of a building, what a tragedy. What a dick! Don't go blaming acid on this guy... if he thought he could fly, why didn't he take off from the ground first and check it out? You don't see ducks lining up to catch elevators to Fly South.'
Bill Hicks was the man.

A lot of people i know seemed to be friends with this very popular person who(while on acid), thought he was a glass of orange juice and was like "dont push me over!" and they did, and he had a seizure! omg!
Heres a good one
Another person i know had a friend that again on the influence of acid, thought he was a teapot and was like "dont push me over!" and they pushed him over and he had a concussion!

Phishe: I wouldn't trust those stories. It's always "friend of mine"-story type. In Poland there is quite funny story of friends that put someone in a box and push him from window. You know why? Mission for Mars. Then they loaded themselves in another box and fall from this same window. You know why? Rescue mission.  Another myth that even made it to the newspapers is about dad/mother that have eaten a piece of frozen pizza with mushrooms. What follows is different in many versions.

I think your getting shrooms mixed with the idea of acid or PCP, I've heard reports about people taking high doses of acid and thinking they could fly and inadvertently killing themselves when they jumped off a building, stupid morons,
same with PCP, actually PCP is so strong that you can be out for days without knowing what happened to you, then you regain consciousness, but you forget how to speak or something, your motor skills are all shot,
This one dude I knew accidentally took way too much PCP, all of sudden he was hallucinating balls of flames, LOL, it was an instant flame fest, and he tried to open the door of a car while it was in motion to escape the flames, but he soon found out that when something ripped the door off its hinges that he was still in motion,

Hmm never heard those about shrooms.. but, I've heard all of those about acid. The brain bleeding and, if you pop your back you have an acid flash back. If you take more than 7 doses your legally insane. Its all shite

I've herd this rumor that LSD stays in your back for ever and thats how flashbacks result. I've seen countless things, I think on Erowid too saying that that is not true and I know that flashbacks are the result of an intensense emotional situtation. You can get flashbacks from anything. Some friend of mine just won't believe it. As a matter of fact he doesn't believe in Psychedelics at all and I've tried telling him about them but he just is always against it. I think it's impossible for some people to understand. unless you guys have a good way to change people's mind about them or atleast a better insight. (don't want to control people)

I've tried on many occasion telling some of my friends and others about psychedelics and they refuse to let any of the info I give them sink in. They see them as horrible drugs, while I see them as a tool. How can someone even say anything about something without trying it first? They really don't have any say in the matter without experiencing it themselves. It kind of bugs me how narrow-minded some people are, and how much they buy in to propaganda fed to them by media or their parents. I don't want anyone to do something they don't want to do, but at least suggest what I'm saying.

I was being sarcastic, I never believe those stories because its ridiculous how similar they are and how its obviously a rumor that changes between people.
Someone once told me their friend became "addicted to acid" and that they went to rehab for many years cause it was so bad. So stupid.

They're exactly what you called them in the title... Horrible rumours.
I must say though, during my first (and only) ego death experience, I tasted blood in my mouth and started to think that perhaps my head was bleeding (I was lying down on concrete and the sensation just got uncomfortable, that's all)... so perhaps these rumours have been started by people unsure of what they are feeling, I very well could have thought that my brain was bleeding, if I hadn't known any better.

I thought I could fly once on shrooms (well, I thought I was flying, more accurately). It was my first trip, and I decided to go swimming. Best thing I ever did. The water felt like air on my skin, and I was moving so quickly and fluid-like; I was certain that I was air-borne, but not to the extent that I literally believed that I could fly.

If it were ego-death, you wouldn't know what your mouth or concrete was.

Yup, happened to a friend of mine and he only took one hit.
Edit: no wait, it was actually a friend of a friend.

werdnaeroom8 said: Ive heard the menthol and fiber glass too i think its true. I heard the reason why you feel the minty snesation in a menthol is because fiber glass is fucking you up.
Alot of cigarette filters contain fiberglass, but I've never heard of it in the actual cigarettes... although there is formaldehyde in many common cigarettes...
Interesting story about formaldehyde... In eighth grade we were dissecting frogs and one boy got dared $20 from like five different people ($20 from each person) to eat a frog eye. He did it, and the teachers had to send him to the hospital for legal liability reasons. He was fine though. True story.
Menthol does make the smoke heavier and it sinks lower in your lungs and stays there... or so I've heard... and that is why menthol ciggies are worse for you.
Honestly, if you are going to smoke tobacco, go for all natural or organic. Natural tobacco is actually somewhat good for you in small doses (it serves as a natural expectorant I am told).
I've also hear the LSD/acid appearing in spinal taps of people who haven't used it in a long time, and that it does not degrade properly in the body. Whether true or not, there must be some chemical in your body for a real flashback to happen...
I've never heard any stories about dumb things done on shrooms (or shrooms alone rather), but I've heard many a tale of acid...
My verdict: all natural is the way to go

this is just a theory, but perhaps seeing as LSD acts as like a crosswire for the chemicals/receptors in your brain, maybe a flashback occurs when emotional confusion/distress is happening so ur brain kind of overloads causing a temporary crosswire that is soon corrected....
One time I was at an E dealers house having a few beers and this guy came in and was all like "OMG AS IF PILLS ARE BAD FOR YOU!" the conversation flowed for a while and I said "have you tried acid?" and he said "NAH MAN OMG FUCK THAT... I KNOW PEOPLE THAT HAVE GONE PERMANENTLY INSANE FROM TAKING ACID. LIKE 50% OF PEOPLE NEVER COME OUT OF THEIR TRIPS" and yada yada... I would have laughed at him but he would have smashed my face in with a brick, so I just did my best to tell him it wasn't true but he wouldn't have anything of it, so I just let him sit down and snort his 3 pills. Fuckhead. I guess ignorance is bliss
