How old were you?
    #5837548 - 07/09/06 12:32 AM (17 years, 6 months ago)

How old were you when you took your first toke? How about when you first tried mushrooms?

Personally, I was 14 when I first smoked weed, and 14 when I first tried mushrooms. Although this seems like an early age, I was very mature for my age at that time, therefore I don't regret my early use at all. I guess I'm just wondering if anybody felt like I did at that age, because when I was 14, nobody was doing mushrooms. It was entirely my own curiosity of the alternate reality that persuaded me to do them.

Peacefulness.

I was 16 for both. Found mushrooms about 5 months after taking my first toke. In terms of drugs, I was kind of a "late bloomer" compared to the kids around me (but I certainly caught up :tongue:)

Looking back, I approached mushrooms with more maturity than anyone around me. I researched on erowid, and even stumbled across the old version of this site. I admit that I did go into it without thoughts of anything spiritual, mostly just thinkin about the pretty colors and how hard I would trip. But I soon learned to respect the mushroom, and kept reading and learning about them. It was kinda funny, after setting some kids straight I somehow became sort of this "mushroom guru" to the kids at my school. I would always have kids approaching me with things like, "My friend is planning on tripping, what should I do if I am their sitter?" or things like, "this girl told me not to do mushrooms cuz they make your brain bleed, is that true?" I got in more than a few arguments with kids that held fast to the myths of shrooms, but all in all I set many kids in the right direction. I shoulda set up some sort of hotline

CUBErt I just had a major deja vu reading your post, THANK YOU! I remember filling that position of "mushroom guru" at my high school mind you I never advocated the use of mushrooms, because for many of my peers I didn't think they would be capable of treating the mushrooms with respect. My realization of my own spirituality came in turn with becoming more comfortable and respectful to the mushroom. www.erowid.org has been a great friend over the years. Later on I got more into the spiritual aspect of mushrooms through reading books such as the Carlos Castaneda series.

Peacefulness.

The first time I smoked weed, I was 18. It was the summer between high school and the university and I was on vacation at the beach. I was with two girls my age who were experienced stoners. They passed me their joint and I didn't refuse it. I got high and I was in heaven, laughing like Beavis and Butthead in the back seat of their vehicle.

I had gotten high two years earlier with the same two girls at the same beach. We were sitting in their car with the windows up and they filled the entire car with smoke, resulting in a contact high. Later that night I drank some cheap domestic beer and had my first black out. To this day I have no memory of that night, although they tell me it involved puking. I was careful to avoid blacking out again for the next 8 years, which primarily involved steering clear of large quantities of cheap beer.

Aside from this girl and her friend, who I met up with 2-3 times a year after my mother started dating her father when I was 16, I never even saw drugs or was offered them until I went off to the university. I was virtually the only person around who owned a computer, and that made me a complete social outcast (late 80's to early 90's). However, I was offered a cigarette when I was 7. Luckily I didn't know how to inhale and I continue to be a nonsmoker to this day.

In my early 20's I experimented with DXM, but I stopped taking it when I started getting headaches after every trip. Then when I was around 25 or 26 I took mushrooms for the first time while in Amsterdam. (I had gotten bunked once before a few years earlier so I'm not counting that experience.) The trip was intense. I ate more mushrooms for my first trip than I typically like to do today as an experienced tripper. I was alone in a hotel room, worrying about my job, and seeing visions of mermaids on the cheap drapery over the windows.

I vividly remember my first acid trip. I had acquired one hit when I was 22 and held on to it until I was ready five years later. All the while I had been doing research and as a result my first time was perfect.

I enjoy smoking weed and eating mushrooms, but I like acid much more. I feel like I'm at the pinnacle of existence. When I'm with friends, it's even better. Dancing manically to the Grateful Dead's music followed with a slice of pizza is simply nirvana.

About 14 for weed and 16 for shrooms. My friend lived on a little farm, and knew what to look for, so we tripped a lot back in those days. :cool:

My brother turned me onto smoking ganja at 6. And at my first "party" he took me to at 11, he gave me a quite large amount of shrooms (for a kid)
I dont remember much that night but waking up in someones bed, probably was put there or something lol

thought I was stoned until I was about 7 when I REALLY got stoned, and after that experience I was kinda scared to go back til I was about 14. Since 14 ive been smoking everyday.

i think i was 17 when i first tried weed... did my research and stuff and was very carefull untill i realized what's what!

my first mushroom expiriance was 23-24 (depends which one i count)
i still haven't had psychodelic dose yet... no colors and hallucinations as of yet but i've had a taste i guess...

i guess i like to remain in control and do things step by step even if it means waiting for a LONG time untill i expiriance something :smirk:
(i grew my own shrooms BTW)

i was 15 1/2 when i decided that i would like to try mushrooms. i had never smoked weed or done anything except indulge in alcohol. i wasn't really interested in weed, i just wanted to trip. i remember friends telling me i should just smoke weed first. it ended up being that way. i smoked weed and then 2 days later tripped.

so mary welcomed me at 15 as well as the paddos.

Age 38, it would be before I would ever consider the use of hallucinogens. Have experimented with others, and have heard that I could enjoy shrooms. Poking around here, seeking and reading as much information that I can.

I started smoking pot at 12 and then progressed rather fats through the drugs such as shrooms and lsd, which were always taken orally in gel caps. I did reds too at 14 and blah blah bvlah.

15 for weed, then I got taken up with x, gas and poppers etc until I rediscovered weed and then mushies around 19-20. They much more suit my personality and I really only do the chemical stuff now when my girl wants to hit the town, except for lsd which I love.

16 or 17, I don't remember quite well. I used to work at a movie theatre and 3/5 managers there smoked weed/did other drugs/didn't care. My buddy used to toke up all the time, he always had dank on him, and I never partook. I stood back and kept thinking to myself about DARE and all that preventitive shit and said
