set & setting. What should I think about?
    #6750155 -

Gonna trip today I think! first time!

I'm also wondering if I can drink before, and how much? I know u arent supposed to eat on like 4 hours before, but what about drinking juice etc?

"Should" is the mindkiller, that's something tripping has taught me. Just clear your mind, and think about here and now.

I think the most I've ever fasted for a mushroom trip was 24 hours, least was maybe an hour, on average maybe about 6ish hours. I usually help myself to an orange or an apple in the meantime though, just for energy, no meals. Juice is good, it'll keep ya energized, water will clean you out and probably has less of a chance of adversely effecting the mushroom absorption. I don't think it's any kind of science though, I'm just talking out my ass a little bit as usual. Happy trails!

Another question too.

I personally think I have a very strong psyche, but I mean how can I be sure lol?

.. hmm.. is there anything differential (correct word?) for a person with a weak psyche?

If you think you're a strong psyche go ahead and turn it into actually believing you're a strong psyche.
What you expect from a trip can be what you get if you know how to influence your mind.
Being aware that you're strong will save you of a lot of worthless pain.
We all have tough moments while tripping so if you believe you're ready to handle them then most likely you will be. Just keep in mind that whatever seems to you, on some phase of the trip, like "the end of the world" is nothing more then just a fear which is amplified and everything will be OK. :heart:

And never known your face
All this time I've missed you

Here is true peace
Here my heart knows calm
Safe in your soul
Bathed in your sighs

Well if your questioning yourself some people may tell you to hold of on taking them. I say, if you're in a good place mentally you'll be okay. The first couple times I tripped I had no preconceived ideas of what to expect, didn't prepare myself in any way, didn't question myself and it all went just fine. The reason I say you're good to go though is because it's not quite the question you'll be able to find an answer for in the meantime while holding off (you can't really be sure).

I imagine a person with a weak psyche would be more prone to mass confusion and fright. But that can happen to those with a strong psyche as well. I think you'll be alright. Mushrooms seem to react positively with those of innocent/positive and/or inquisitive nature.

Being OVERprepared is bad too... If you feel any kind of fright or anxiety, save your trip for some other time. If you are ready to accept whatever the shrooms deal you, and make the most of it, then you are ready.

Just be in a comfortable, safe enviroment with someone you trust.

Make sure THEY know how to deal with you IF something weird starts going down... Mostly just reassuring you that EVERYTHING IS TEMPORARY, and the trip WILL end. If you are interested, there are tons of trip reports and guides around here... read them.

Good Luck!

ok thx. I've always thought I've had a strong psyche then I just on what the hell is a strong psyche anyway lol. But I guess I understand a little better:)

I've never been afraid of anything really, except spiders but I've learnt to deal with it too... Sometimes it feels like my brain and I are two different persons you know not in a schizo way but... hard to explain. Like the fear of spiders. My body isnt really afriad im 100 times bigger, but my mind is... But as ive said ive learnt to deal with it.. It'ls like I can communicate with my brain lol. One day I just told it wtf are u afraid of anyway it wont hurt you.. and since I've been ok:)

Don't worry about Phobias... which is what you explained.

I have a bunch of crazy ones including bees, and I've tripped plenty with no problemo. :smile:

Basically, you are going to laugh and giggle and be interested in mundane shit for 4 hours or so. Candles, clouds, carpet... you'll see things "different" and it's just too hard to explain.

On a side note... How do you plan on ingesting them? More people have stomach issues than crazy, bad trip issues. I blend them into OJ and I've never felt anything more than MINOR blah feeling in my belly. Some people eat them plain, as I used to do, which isn't really that bad.

Fasting beforehand makes stomaching them easier, but experimentation is key! Just don't go COOKING them into anything, as high heat may have adverse effects on the main ingredient.

Again, have a blast! :dancingshroom:

just remember (if you get into troublesome waters) it is only a (miraculous) drug and will be over in a matter of hours...:peace:

If you see anything "bad" just go with it... if you look openmindedly at what the mushroom shows you it will eventually move on to somethng else...:peace:

BTW this is only if your dosing higher then usual..:mushroom2:
