Need advice / help on shrooms

Okay, thanks for reading. two weeks ago i did an 8th of shrooms for the second time, and my parents were out of a town, and i had some friends over. 3 of us were on shrooms one wasn't. I started out okay with like a basic level 1 and level 2 trip, but soon i felt like everyone was depending on me for stuff and i couldn't handle it. I started to have a bad trip, i felt like i was trapped in eternity and it would never end, and sat in my underwear and cried, hopelessly trying to connect my self with things I associated with the "real" world. anyway my state of mind ruined what could have been a good trip, and my friends helped me fall asleep.
I have tripped once before then, and it was great, i think the key to my "bad" trip was wrong state of mind and i let the anxiety get to me.
anyway, I want to have a good level 4 or 5 trip, out of body experience, i want things to talk to me etc. I have read alot of trip reports and read about people seeing and having good times. I want to have a great hardcore trip like this, but what to be in the state of mind where i can sit back and enjoy it, i want to be able to close my eyes and see crazy stuff etc. but im somewhat cautios because of the awful time i had the last time i did them.
i way 150 pounds, i am skinny and about 5'11. age 18. what is the best amount and species of shroom i can eat to acheive such a trip, and who or if anyone should i do it with?

Such trips are best done alone and with MUCH more experience.

Sigh. I don't understand why people are so put off by bad trips. A few weeks ago I had my first bad trip. The next day I was just like "Well, that sucked. Oh well, shit happens.". Yesterday I took acid again and had a great time. No problems at all. Bad trips happen. Deal with it.

that trip should have taught you just how powerful shrooms are. if you couldn't even handle that much, why are you even considering doing more?

And that doesn't make any sense at all. A trip is a subjective experience. If the subjective experience is considered negative by the one experiencing, then it would be considered a bad trip.

You can't fry your brain by taking too many psychedelics. Making psychedelics a regular part of your life (or even taking them at all in some cases) can and often will change who you are. Tripping too often can make you withdrawn from society and make you "weird". Whether this is a bad thing or not is up to you, but is certainly not a result of "frying" your brain.

Im not weird... And im sure MANY people in this forum will disagree with you.. tripping once or twice a month is prety harmless if its not effecting your life in a bad way (aka job cops money etc)

Where did I say that tripping often WILL make you withdrawn or harm you in any way? I said it CAN. I also said "weird" for a reason as I was referring to the way society as a whole views people. IMO, fuck society.

I think that honestly part of your bad trip is because of your setting. Your parents were out of town and so you had kids over. Having kids over like that isn't usually a bad thing, but there is definitely some pressure on you to keep everyone in line, and to basically watch over everyone and make sure they don't do stupid stuff. I think the best thing you can do if you go for another trip soon is to do it away from home. There will be a lot less pressure, and you won't feel like people are needing you. If its somewhere else, you aren't the host. You can be a guest and relax. My personal advice, be a guest of the great outdoors if possible

I've recently had my 2nd trip on shrooms (actually it could technically be my 1st) by myself indoors and it was a bad experience. I felt trapped in a room and just started having weird thoughts, would remember messed up and unanswered things from my childhood and my mind would loop with these thoughts for around 6-8 hours, all the while I just laid there in a fetal position and took it. This was only with 2g + 1g after 2.5 hours. The advice I got from people on this board and others is to let go of this bad trip, learn from it and just move on. My next trip will be with 1/8 and preferably outdoors. At 1st I thought the mushrooms were bad but others confirmed that this wasn't the case, it was basically all psychological. I don't feel dissuaded from this experience and just took it for whatever it was worth and hope for a better one next time around.
Also, I've had acid in the past and even tho it was at low doses (1.5 tabs max) I had never had a bad trip. I think psilocybin has a way of knowing what buttons to push and when, so my 1st encounter with it was uncomfortable, hopefully it'll be nicer to me next time.
I definitely respect the mushroom much more since this bad trip then I probably would have if it was a good experience, if that makes any sense.

dude, it's not only the amount of mushrooms you take, but the state of mind you are in when you take them also effects the quality of the trip. Even thinking about having negative thoughts is a negative action so you must therefore be able to block out any sign of discord for at least the length of your trip.
