Hey everyone. I'm really interested in trying muchrooms and I'm trying to get my hands on some atm. I have a few questions to make sure I dont fuck it up. First, all my friends smoke...but they are too pussy to try mushrooms. I was wondering if I do it by myself but be around close friends will I still have a good trip?

you may, I would just do it alone though.

tripping with people who aren't tripping is not my idea of a fun time or a worthwhile experiance.

do it alone out in nature and bring weed to smoke, as long as you have a good reaction from smoking weed sober. if this is your first psychedelic experiance, and you have no experiance with altered states other then marijuana, then take around 1.8-3.5 grams (if they're cubensis.. if cyans, then half that roughly)

I will have to differ with you on that one. . . First off - doing shrooms by yourself for the first time would be pretty intense (not necessarily scary).

Secondly, don't take weed with you if you go out in nature. In fact, don't take anything with you, sometimes you tend to freak out if you lose stuff. Or at least I do.

Take 3 grams (of cubensis) I always thought this was a perfect amount.

And as far as friends go, it kind of depends, I would not do them with a bunch of people. However, a couple of good friends might be okay as long as they werent staring at you waiting to see you freak out. It's kind of hard to say, but people are definate X factors in tripping, just make sure you feel 100% comfortable.

Oh....and dont forget to have fun! :mushroom2:

Shut inside of a basement...

Well problem #1, you (or at least i) require a bit of freedom when tripping. I think spending all your time inside is a bit of an insult to the shrooms. Not because it wouldn't be fun, but because nature is so much more vastly interactive. If you really cannot go outside then I guess just stay in the basement.

Three things i would pay attention to.
1. doing them alone you have a real thirst for human interaction, when that is not fulfilled the effects vary.

2. Don't have expectations. Don't plan. A trip is a trip because it's a trip. You will be fascinated with the leg of a chair or the beams in a ceiling. Not because you are in a stupor. No, No, actually quite the opposite. You would probably be marveling at the radical construction techniques of the prominent 21st century.(I realize that doesn't make a lot of sense now)

3. If your parents are home make sure that there is no chance whatsoever that you have to interact with them, and if you do (and that is if your parents are not cool with entheogens) just tell them you are drunk.

Don't rag on your "friends" for not wanting to try mushrooms with you... its a personal choice and nobody should be peer pressuring you into it.  I hope you don't underestimate the power of this experience.  Yes, it is fun, it can be silly and it can be enlightening beyond your wildest imagination, but it can also be gravely serious and is not "just a good time" or a way to "get fucked up" - trust me.

The basement might work out for you, but you might get insanely paranoid if you're trying to keep it from your parents.  I've walked that path, it really can ruins trips man.  Especially when you start thinking they're onto you, or they know something is up, and you're sitting there tripping and worried about every single noise you make and breath you take.  NOT FUN. 

Just curious... you do know this is a psychedelic hallucinogen, correct? :wink:

The advice I give is have a place where nothing is going to interrupt you and nobody is going to bother you.  Camping is the best place for this, IMO, but you'll want at least 1 sober friend around for that so you don't get lost in the woods or something.

Good luck, and make sure you know the time is right before you try the sacred mushrooms, and you will be thankful you did.

That is a more gravely serious description, but I just didnt want to scare you away from it.

Mushrooms are a powerful experience, and I guess what you can take from this is try your best to avoid doing them around your parents. And if your friends are constantly peer pressuring or something, just don't do it with them. It would be nice however to have someone Just remember that shroomland can be a lonely place when you are by yourself.

Definitely be outside while you are tripping... you really appreciate nature a lot. I suggest you find a field near the forest and just take a blanket and lay out there and stare at the sky. The clouds do some crazy shit, its awesome. Also take an ipod or something, music is great to listen to while you are tripping and outside.

I wouldn't recomment doing it alone the first time... I tripped for the first time last night and it was definitely better to have people you trust around you. But don't do it with people who aren't tripping, I don't think it would be fun to be around them...they wont understand what the hell you are talking about because it is such an emotional experience and they wouldnt get it
