Personally I'd take a full eighth. It'll probably be 25-35 dollars depending on area and who you get them from.
It's difficult to say a real number of shrooms, but I'm guessing you can guesstimate pretty well as to what 3.5g(1/8th of an oz) would be.
Don't even think about good trip/bad trip really, the biggest thing is that you need to take them somewhere you feel safe being for 4-6 hours, and with someone who will keep you safe(this really isn't that difficult).
I guarantee that regardless of experience, even if it turns into the somewhat "bad" portion of the trip I usually get into where essentially I get tired of tripping and try to fight it, when you come out of it and sober up, you'll feel more alive than you ever have before in your life.
Be safe. Be ready. Don't fight it. Learn something from it.

same... id take 2-3.5 grams... preferrably 3.5 grams and just dive in 
at the same time... people can be unusually intolerant sometimes so you may want to test the waters out before you dive in just in case to get a feel for what your dosage should be and that youre not one of those people that can trip real hard off of a small dose.
so maybe you just want around a 1 gram dose first and then wait a few weeks or months or whatever and then dive in.
dunno... its your choice

as in an eighth of an ounce? Yeah, I'm REALLY new at this lol. Just two more questions (anyone can answer): - I have ADHD, and I take meds for it (concerta). Would this affect my trip? - I've heard of flashbacks. Do these occur randomly, or does something have to happen for one to occur? Cause I don't want it to happen while I'm driving lol
Thanks for all the help you guys!!!

I don't know why these idiots are telling you to take a full eighth. Don't do it especially if you're scared.

- I have friends that have ADD and they trip just fine, doesn't affect them at all. I mean I can't cite any experiments about it, but honestly, trips aren't that complicated. Don't worry. - flashbacks are only with acid. Yeah they're random (although there's TONS of rumors out there, be critical of what you read).

since you are a bit anxious then follow what i said.. just do a small dose to see how it feels and be in a comfortable setting. have a benzo on hand if you can get a hold of one so you have that to take if anything negative were to happen.. just in case.. but id doubt youd even need it.
be in your "happy place" when you trip  --- and to the poster above... i am not an idiot.

I think most people have some anxiety going into their first mushroom experience(and they should, I'd be more worried if he wasn't), but I don't think a full eighth would be so completely overpowering even for a first time as long as the setting and his mindset are ready.
Take 2grams and then take the other 1.5g if you're feeling like you want a bit more after you're into the trip a bit.

The thing is, you wont really understand anything until you're lying on your back trippin your balls off. Don't worry, a bad trip isn't even all that bad. Your first trip will have some moments of euphoria, some moments of understanding, and some moments of terror, but if you're in a good environment nothing can go wrong. Just remember to relaaaxxx. And I PROMISE it will all be worth it in the end.
BTW my advice is to take an 1/8th, if you are in a good environment there is no reason to take any less. An 1/8th could cost anywhere from 20$ to 35$ depending on the availability of shrooms in your area, but I really wouldn't recommend paying any more than that. (and 35$ is pushing it)

ok thanks dude. How long do dried shrooms last (shelf life)? Do you know? Because I plan on taking the shrooms at a time where I have absolutely NO worries, and that might be a while.

fsdoubleflip you can stick them dried in a freezer for a very long time. Make sure you know what you're in for. If you need to keep them in your freezer for a while that's fine. It will make it all the better when you actually are ready to take them.

About 6 months, as long as you keep them in an airtight container/bag. Some people say even up to 1 year but that seems like it's pushing it. Thanksgiving break and Winter break are surely times where you'll have no worries, and those amounts of time won't be a problem at all.
For me I'm probably going to be waiting till Spring

I disagree with almost everything you just said.
-------------------- After one comes, through contact with it's administrators, no longer to cherish greatly the law as a remedy in abuses, then the bottle becomes a sovereign means of direct action. If you cannot throw it at least you can always drink out of it. - Ernest Hemingway If it is life that you feel you are missing I can tell you where to find it. In the law courts, in business, in government. There is nothing occurring in the streets. Nothing but a dumbshow composed of the helpless and the impotent. -Cormac MacCarthy He who learns must suffer. And even in our sleep pain that cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart, and in our own despair, against our will, comes wisdom to us by the awful grace of God. - Aeschylus

I did 4g's this weekend for my first time, seemed pretty standard. Didn't really even have any hallucinations. Just intense, intense lights and an overall feeling of goodwill.

I did 1/8th for my first time and it was mindfuckingly awesome. If you are really scared to do more then don't but if your setting is okay than I absolutely promise that you will have a great time.
