First Trip- I appreciate your input
    #5899453 - 07/25/06 08:04 PM (17 years, 6 months ago)

Hey everyone. I've been smoking weed for a good 3 years now, and have really allowed it to open my mind. I have also taken morning glory seeds, but didnt gain much at all from them.

I've been wanting to try mushrooms for close to a year now, but wasnt able to get them. Then, out of no where, a friend of a friend makes a few calls, and we have a quarter of shrooms for two people.

The shrooms did not look like I expected. It was roughly 60% stems, 30% "powder" and 10% actual caps.

I am 6' 5" 275 lbs, and my friend is short and maybe 110 soaking wet. We split the quarter and each took 3.5 grams. We both had an empty stomach.

Half an hour into it, I started to feel sick, so I played video games/smoked cigs. At the same time, my much lighter friend was saying he was really messed up, and he kept going on, but i still felt nothing.

One hour into it, I start to feel pretty good, so we take his dog for a walk. Its around 11:30 PM, and he lives in a nice dark quiet neighborhood. We walked, admiring the trees and our surroundings, listening to some nice beatles. I felt VERY giddy, and very at peace with myself.

Second hour- We continued to walk, and I was really enjoying my trip. I was seeing some red dots, and shadows occasionally looked like something else for a split second, but no real hallucinations. Almost like VERY hardcore morning glory seeds, for those who have taken them. My friend had lost his bearings (we were at HIS house) and kept saying there was too much happening, and he didnt know what was going on. The entire time I felt under control. We kept walking, and I eventually got him calmed down. By 2.5 hours into our trip, We were able to talk to each other about the thoughts racing through both of our heads.

By the 3rd hour his sober friend had come over. We sat at his house an relaxed. By 3.5 hours, my mind was sober, and my body felt only slightly altered. I'll end at this point, because this is where my trip ended. However, even after some strenuous biking we did, my friend continued to feel messed up for long into the 4th and 5th hour.

I felt slightly disapointed that he seemed to get so much more out of it then me, however I did gain a lot of insight about life.

So my questions are, is it normal for the bag to have powder and a LOT of stems?

Also, how much of a factor does weight play in the type of trip you have? Is it because I'm more then double his weight, or did I just react differently?

Thanks for all the people who take the time to read this, I hope to post here often.

Yes, most of the weight of mushrooms is in the stem, therefore you will generally have more stems than caps.

Powder is also normal, especially if they were from the bottom of a large supply. Dryed mushrooms are cracker dry, and they often break apart and powder up a bit. 

Everyone is unique and we all react to psychedelics in different ways.  I find that weight is the least determining fator when considering dose.  Mind set, expectations, set, and setting play a much more important role in determining the direction or strength of a trip.  :mushroom2:

It all really depend's, Next time you trip my advice would be after you eat the mushies drink some orange juice and smoke a joint or 2 and it really boost's and mellows out the trip, for me any way :wink:

The shrooms you got were normal. No worries there, the powder is referred to as "shake". All it is is little peices of dried mushrooms that have fallen off the stems and caps... same thing that happens with weed.

Many things effect the outcome of a trip. Mind set is definately #1, then setting and ofcourse what you ate during the day. When I trip, I make sure not to eat anything 4 hours before I eat my mushrooms, this way I know my stomach is empty and my body will metabolize the mushrooms effectively.

Nice trip report BTW!

Hello first time tripper. It's been a while since I have experienced mushrooms, but I have had them on may occasions since the early 1970's. (first clue to my age) First, in my opinion any bag that contains powder and broken stems and only a few caps is very old, too dry, and just plain ol BAD. Call me spoiled but when I have had them they were always in one piece, that is a cap attached to a stem with the cap being fairly good size depending on species. They were dried but still pliable and a blue streak could be seen all along the stem if they were supposed to have that particular coloration.
First thing on an empty stomach in the morning or late evening, and you were off and going in 10 to 15 minutes. You could feel the surge of energy racing through your body and it seemed to vibrate as you could picture a jet engine slowly gaining in speed and power and roar. Very exciting and those effects could be felt with 1/2 of the amount you took. Of course I don't know what kind you actually took, do you? You (I) rushed to a peak at breakneck speed for about 45 min. Then it leveled off at that level for 3 to 4 hours before descending back to earth and a pleasant afterglow. Did I forget to mention I usually puked about 1/2 hour after ingestion? Well I was on a roll and didn't want to break the flow with some throw....up.
I forgot what your question was but I hope I gave you some useful information. Bottom line You got a rotten batch and your friend is a light weight or ate all the good parts himself. Just my opinion for what it's worth. Uncle Bob---- remembering when

My stomach was 2 hours empty, and I ate at night with a REALLY good attitude going into it.

I just got another 8th tonight from a different guy. A few more caps, and no shake. I'm going to try tripping by myself this time. I'll let you guys know how it turns out.

Please read this before you take those by yourself.

I'm not going to tell you not to do it, because that's up to you, but I hope you're ready. Your mind is going to have fun with you and you need to really make sure you are able to control the direction of your trip if you're going to do it alone.


Just an overall bad idea to trip by yourself your second time. But hey, have fun.

Nevermind, didn't even look at the date on your post :P How was it?
