I will trip alone...
    #7415377 - 09/16/07 03:25 AM (16 years, 4 months ago)

How many of you people enjoy tripping alone? I was wondering because I absolutely love it. At moderately high doses too. Everyone I know says they won't even consider doing it all alone by themselves. I feel like having other people around distracts me. When I'm alone I can close my eyes and dance to a silent whim, allow my mind to fully harness my latent subconscious, and feel like a GOD for several hours, all completely uninterrupted and full throttle. I've been eating cubes about 4-8 times a year since 1997, and have never had a bad trip. I couldn't conceive of being able to even have one. (At least not under 8 or 9 grams, everything gets sketchy beyond that, especially in public.)

I'm a loner at heart, and I think that has a lot to do with it. I love being left to my own devices and thoughts in any situation. Is there anyone else out there like me? Anyone who refuses to use the sacrament as a social activity, but rather as a lone journey into ones self?

My favorites are weeping willows, which aren't really weeping at all. They're very wispy, witty and will dance in the breeze with you. Nothing like a tree that wants to dance with you. Although it doesn't like its thin limbs being pulled at all, it absolutely LOVES it when you walk through them, letting them gently slide over your face and shoulders. If you're naked, the willow considers it to be sex. It will orgasm on your mind and you will blow dream chunks into outer space. All very fun until your neighbor sees you.                                    -The Joekenorer

Its funny, i completely agree with everything youve said but i dont think i could have put it so succinctly. Most of my friends look at me like im crazy when i say i prefer tripping alone. I think they associate it with alcohol dependency or something. Stupid considering i may only do mushrooms once a month. Iv definitely had my best trips by myself, i like to drop and then read or do puzzles also juggling and video games. I just wait for the onset and meditate or think about an problem i have. Then maybe a joint and see what happens!

I have however had my only bad trip by myself, just took to many and freaked out. It was horrible but iv heard of worse, also i learned a LOT

I've never had a spiritual moment, except for the experience of temporary omnipotence. I sometimes, like I said before, feel like a god. All knowing and all powerful, but only within my mind with the ability to access and use it in its entirety.

I do have two really old friends who can converse with me on this level of trip, but still I have a naturally different mindset than them.
As far as the sober world and growing up, I've always thought differently than everyone I've known for as long as I can remember. It's tended to cause conflict with daily life.
I liken it to the phrase "Thinking outside the box", except I live outside the box, and I have to struggle to think within it. I still make the same ratio and severity of mistakes, but with such a different perspective that when I do, people are like "What in the hell were you thinking to even come to that fucked up, off the wall conclusion?". But alternately, it feels so good when I'm very right on something that people said I was thinking completely ass backwards about in the first place.

I just know there has to be someone out there like me, someone who knows what I mean. Yet, I wonder if I would be able to communicate with or even tolerate being around someone like me. It sends shivers down my spine right now to imagine that I may feel threatened at the notion that my conscious perspective might not be exclusive to me. Is it jealousy? Greed? Jealous greed? I can't say.

Sorry about that increasingly off-topic rant. I've been waiting a long time to put this into words somewhere to be scrutinized. I wish everyone I knew would read it so they could understand me a little better.

I've tripped alone three times and with my friends twice, either is fun.

Mushrooms are very introspective, it only makes sense that they should be taken alone. With other people, IMO, it takes away a lot of what the trip should be about. It shouldn't be about "seeing cool colors" or "enhancing music", its about showing us what we really are and what we can do. You said it makes you feel like GOD, what do you think GOD is?

I agree with you 100%. Most people here can agree that there aren't a lot of people "in the know" or can understand or even think about other things besides what's right here, black and white. These people are scattered about which makes us probably never even getting to talk to them outside of the internet. Which brings me back to tripping alone.

I feel like I'm alone period, all the time, regardless of where or who I am, or I am with.

I always trip alone in that regard. I only have one REAL tripping friend...many FAKE.

In a way setting doesn't matter in the very least for me, People or No people.

I like tripping with a small group but being by myself is better.  I feel like I worry about my friends mentality to much when I'm tripping with them and that can make me begin to worry and ruin my trip.  Tripping alone I generally stay calm :mushroom2:

I love tripping alone on mushrooms and LSA, but on acid I'm all about partying.

I get you completely and hear you so clearly on this. I am the same way. I have always had the same conflicts as a child growing up, and interference in my daily life from this conventional vs. non-conventional thought has been a constant. As I get older, its getting worse.

In fact, I have been living like a pauper, getting fucked over all the time because of thinking "out of the box" and trying to balance system vs fuck thh system is truly an ugly, demotivating and draining experience for me.

I still feel however, that I have had the right guidance (= mushrooms, nature, and my mind as my teachers and guide) and that somehow, I need to be able to justify my perspective and choice of profession (independant ecological designer/progressive solutions provider) in a world that is becoming increasingly hostile to the simple, logical (heh), and pro-development of ecology and economy that I am talking about to people.

Its getting harder and harder to earn a buck, and easier and easier to piss of people who are used to (and willingly back) the system that creates the "filtered" images we are told we must have.

Fuck. Im even having fights (almost breaking up) with my girlfriend of 10 years because even though she has been supportive so long, we are running out of money and time because no one will listen to the fact that economy and ecology can work together and provide more mutual benefit than any other integration.

Fuckit. Im waiting for 2012.

Pleasure to meet you sir. We have some deep seated issues in common. :smile:

Word on waiting for 2012.

For me, I have had social anxiety issues for the last year or so as a result of moving to a new city and spending a summer basically isolated and losing all my social abilities. Came back to my old city with my friends and I found it hard to get myself to want to hang out.

My first trip ever, I had about 2.5 grams with my friend and we went to a 4th of July hangout type thing. I started stressing when we were walking there partly because I hadn't seen a lot of the people at the party for awhile which made it worse. Everything was going pretty much as shitty as expected when I got there but then I looked at the trees and I became my real self for the first time in too long. I didn't worry about every move I made or what I said and how people looked at me, I didn't care. It was probably the greatest experience I've had so far in life.

My second trip I did alone. It was an eighth and I decided before the onset to ride my bike to a trail. It turned into a bad trip, not because I was scared or anything but because, nothing significant happened. I got some visuals but I didn't learn anything or change from the experience. THAT is my definition of a bad trip.
