Some Advice on a First Trip
    #7445682 - 09/23/07 08:46 PM (16 years, 4 months ago)

Hey all, I'm new here, finally having decided to join after passing by this site several times. I'd like to pose a question to anyone who can help answer it.

I was supposed to trip last night, however our connect for the shrooms fell through. I was gonna have an 1/8th along with some nice bud. I was really looking forward to the experience but like I said, it fell through. The question I have is that I still have some concerns about my first shroom trip and whether or not it could permanently effect my mental state in a negative manner. I have read it can dig up latent psychological issues. I dont have shizophrenia or anything like that, and am a pretty social person, a little wacky at times, but otherwise chill. Also, I have tripped before on dramamine and several times on salvia with varying effects, but always a pleasant experience.

So my question is, is there anything I should be wary of before I trip, or should I not at all? Thanks, Dave

About your mental state, I wouldn't worry too much. I just had my first trip friday (1/8th) and about 2-3 hours into it it went really bad I believed I went permentantely insane/didn't exist horrible horrible thoughts etc but as soon as the trip ended I became completely normal as if it was just all a bad dream.

Thanks for the advice man. Yeah, I'm not as concerned as freaking out a little as I am of possibly being permanently mind fucked or something like that. Should I check to see if there is a history of mental illness in my family, or am I just stressing out for no reason?

Well there's no harm in checking. I was questioning the same things as well, but nothin bad happened. I know my mom is bi-polar but I doubt I have any mental issues.

From what happened on friday, i doubt that a permanent mind fuck is possible, but you should probably ask someone who is more experienced.

Hey, to me the first time was like opening my eyes, i got to know so much about myself which was true.. and later on i've done everything to change it, so .. shrooms had helped me, they had a certain place in my life. And the only information i knew before havin my first trip was :
1) im goin to see visual hallucinations
2) im not gonna have a bad trip cuz first time is usually good, thats a reported fact
3) it takes ~40 minutes when i should expect some effects
4) at the beginning you start gigglin and then all the other effects come by..

and when i finally got there and all this was happening exactly like it was said on erowid, but nothing like government had said, i felt the power of nature .. blah blah .

in other words - good luck, everythings gonna go fine. you know exactly how to handle it , just be yourself

You seem to have some confidence in yourself, and how you handle your mind and body. Thats a good start. You will figure out for yourself how much you need after this time, so start at an amount where you will be able to guage your mind and body's reactions to the shrooms.

Id say youll be fine. I would recommend perhaps a little less than an eigth though, for a first time. You want to let the experience stay unclouded. It can be confusing for a first time trip to go straight to an eigth. I would say from what I can guage of your writing, go for 2 - 2.5 grams, and youll be great.

Youll be ok, good vibes! Have a good trip! Let us know how it goes, and if you need anything, just come by! :smile:

If you're smoking pot fine you'll probably be alright. Just remember set and setting. Get some good music, people you like, and a comfortable environment and you're good to go.

Don't worry about it. Make sure you have a good setting though. Setting and mindset is extremely important! I just had my first trip a few days ago and it was all smooth sailing, I took 2 grams. Be prepared to be very confused though! Me and my friend were in a park and we were so confused where the exit was! Haha.

Thanks to everyone for the advice, I really appreciate it. Set and setting is all set up to be ideal. Gonna be tripping with a good friend of mine over at his place, put on some good music, and just sit back and enjoy the adventure. I will definitely let you all know how it goes, and you'll be seeing me around the forums for sure.

Thanks again,

Dave.

Sounds like a good set-up; I've had some great trips under those conditions.

Good luck and good vibes! Just let yourself go into the experience and you will learn from it.
