When I Trip Shrooms...

Ok, hopefully some of you more experienced users can help me with my problem.
I love mushrooms, but every time I trip I find myself just laying down nearly the entire time, sometimes getting in bed under the covers... Its not like a bad trip really, its cool because I just kind of watch all the visuals and patterns...
But I hear about other people's trips and they are running around in fields/forests and other places... I would love to go for a walk in a forest or something, I'll even plan it out, but as soon as I start to trip, I want to go lay down or something... then its over, and I'm pissed 
I feel kind of tranquilized sometimes...
Anyone else have this feeling? Any insight? Thanks..

My last trip I couldn't do anything physical. It took 20 minutes of convincing myself to go outside before I finally did. Maybe don't start your trip in a comfortable place? I find when I get stoned, say sitting on a couch, I have alot higher chance of just being couchlocked rather than if I got stoned outside in the woods and end up walking around and stuff the whole time. If you keep starting your trips in your living room on your couch or in your room on your bed, maybe that's the problem?

Maybe you could drink a Coke or something too, a little boost of sugar/caffeine that might make you want to get moving. Plus it's acidic so it'll help your stomach break down the mushrooms.

The thing is, I would think exploring your own mind would be much more rewarding than taking a walk. But, you are right, exploring one's surroundings for a while can be nice, nature is quite wonderful.
I still think in the end, your own mind is a great thing to be focussed on.

You just need to GET UP, i usually lie around a bit at the start listening to some music and whatnot, but if you lie around too much you can get feeling shitty because maybe your stomach hurts a bit or whatever, and the lack of movement makes you concentrate on this. You're also in the same place, thus looking at the same stuff, and it gets boring after a while. I sometimes need to tell myself, "i may feel a little shitty, but get up, or else you're just going to lay here feeling shitty, then your trip ends". You need to go do something active, activity alone gets your mind onto something else - less introspective (not that intorspection is bad, but it can get you down). I like to ride my bike.

Are all your trips solo?
If you don't have someone to go exploring with perhaps it all becomes somewhat of a burden, making you want to lay down.

^^^True dat, having people around with you will make you get up and do stuff, even if it is to get them to stop staring straight into a fucking strobe light so they don't go blind.

I used to be the same way, as of late I have found that the majority of my trips have been in the woods, running and exploring. But its not just exploring nature, it exploring yourself. I could go and lay down anywhere on mushrooms and close my eyes. I highly recommend that you do take your next trip in the woods, I have found them to be very satisfying and touching experiences.

I'd just like to say that there is more to shrooms then just exploring your mind and your surroundings.what there is to realize is that you are all one there is no real surrounding and no real

hmm iuno sorry about last post it didn't all show up what i was saying was that mushrooms allows you to be able to more in depth and contact with nature. That is why people may feel better outside. As to why you sit around i don't know what to say. How big are your doses? Well i would recommend going outside and trying to be a part of the cycle that life has set out for us. Be a part of the trip opposed and try not to let it control yoor being, work with it.

I always like to start off indoors and when I feel the strong effects coming I go outside (on campus) at night and walk around. When you have a friend with you . . . in my opinion (which is neither right or wrong, just an opinion) it can make exploring outside more desirable and fun.

When peaking at 4g or more, I find that there is too much going on to be walking around... but at lower doses or during less-intense parts of the trip I usually feel compelled to be outside for at least a little while.
It's all good.
