First Time - A Little Scared
    #7585980 - 11/01/07 10:45 PM (16 years, 2 months ago)

[gradient:#FF0000,#D9FF00]I've been thinking about getting some shrooms, but I'm a little scared of doing them. Despite all the things posted on the site, I still have the feeling in the back of my head that a "bad trip" isn't the worst that could happen to me. I was wondering if maybe you guys could give me a little reassurance, and maybe answer a few questions. Here are a few on my head right now:
- How much should a good amount of shrooms (for a beginner) cost?
- What should they look like? (pictures would be appreciated)
- Should I do it with a friend around?
- How much should I do the first time? (in terms of number of shrooms, since i do not have a scale to measure grams)
- What is the best and easiest way to prepare and/or eat the shrooms?

Also, the only other psychedelic I've ever done was weed, and that was only once. [/gradient]

Thanks! Hope to be contributing to that tripping quotes thread soon lol!!

Hey, I was in the same shoes you are about three weeks ago. Have a look here http://www.shroomery.org/9054/Trippers-FAQ. This answered pretty much all of my questions, really really well actually. Hopefully it helps you too.

well, I'm still somewhat scared. I'm worried that I might go insane or something. Can that happen? Are shrooms dangerous to mental or physical help? I want to know from someone who has done it, not read a medical report with a bunch of word I don't understand. Also, how many shrooms should I do the first time? I don't know how many are in a gram, so i would like to know. I really want to be confident that I will be generally the same person, in terms of behavior (you know, like not acting like my mind is in another place) after I trip. I am 17, is that too young? I also plan on doing them dried, so how many dried would be good for a first-timer? Sorry for all these dumb questions, I just don't want to be scared of doing shrooms anymore.

Based on what I know mushrooms probably won't make you go insane, unless you have a history of mental problems. I've read about a few members on these forums who have found out that their families had histories of mental illness, and many of them have done mushrooms quite a bit with no negative mental effects. As far as "going insane" you'll be tripping, to some people that might be considered going insane, to others it is just experiencing the world like you've never seen it. A very important thing to remember is to relax, being full of anxiety and worry will just lead to a bad trip. The trip won't change who you are, but it might change the way you see the world. Like learning something new. When it comes to "how many mushrooms" you can't really specify a number because the size of the mushrooms vary quite substantially. If you are buying them from a dealer you'll know the weight, its a faily worthwhile investment to get a scale for measuring personal doses. For a first time trip some people recommend as little as 0.75 grams, but the general consensus i've seen is between 1.5 and 2 grams for your first trip. That 2 grams could be 5 small shrooms or 2 big ones, its pretty difficult to guage weight just from the size too so like I said, scale might be worthwhile.

If you got any other questions i'll do my best to answer them for you, the community around here pretty freakin smart about this stuff, so maybe some of them could shed some light for you.

Yes i agree with meaty its difficult to say how many or even how it will turn out , i was 13 when i started taking acid and mushrooms and i stopped for years and i think the trip is more light hearted when your young and fearless than when your older having said that doesnt mean you wont panic if you start to feel negative or worried during a trip. best thing you can do, cos lets be fair your panicing already is dose a dry gram which will give you the feeling of tripping but will almost definatly be in your control if you like the feeling of altered mindstate then you can afford to make it a little crazier next time, i myself just5 threw myself into the deep end but ive done some crazy shit with drugs that most wont even dream of doing anyways hope you enjoy your trip and remember the most important thing is RELAX REMEMBER THE EFFECTS WILL GO WITHIN 6 HOURS NO MATTER HOW BAD YOU MAY FEEL BE WELL AND ENJOY OH AND DONT WORRIE SO MUCH LOSING YOUR MIND IS FUN :zoom:

fsdouble,

do 1 gram for your first time. an eighth should cost between $20-25.

you are definitely going to need a scale. there's no way of telling really how much you are eating without one. i bought a cheap weighing scale (not electronic) for only $5. works just fine.

there's no chance of flipping your lid on only 1gram, you will be absolutely fine. As long as you are surrounded by people who care about you and are in a nice place everything will be fine.

    #7587922 - 11/02/07 01:37 PM (16 years, 2 months ago)

i'm a beginner too :laugh: and slightly afraid. but the way i see it is,
i wanna do it.. so nothings going to stop me.. i might as well succumb to any trip my body gives me. i understand that i will not come out the same.

in the back of my mind rests the uneasy thought "I have a chance at going insane. I have a chance at bringing back all my mental problems I once defeated.(Generalized Anxiety Disorder and Panic Disorder"
But i really feel like i will enjoy them if it goes good and learn something if it goes bad. i don't even think a bad first trip could stop me from doing them again after.. unless i slip into insanity.

i have smoked shitloads of weed for years now and even sometimes on weed i can get some insights and uneasy thoughts (will i ever come down?!) but more and more recently i can harness these thoughts with
a very useful mental chant, "it is only the drug, it is only the drug"

i think it would be useful if we had a way of telling how much should be taken by body weight, would that work?

for my first trip i'm thinking 1.5 - 2 grams should be sufficient to see how the drugs effect me.  (though some friends tell me i should just take the whole 8th) i have a pretty low tolerance level to drugs and i am very sensitive to my senses. (i am very in tune with my own body) and weigh about 125-130 lbs.

good luck with your trip friend, do report back with how it goes. :thumbup:

another thing fsdouble,

if you can get a hold of some xanax (2mg), those will pretty much cancel any bad trip you might encounter. just having those in your possession may help you feel more at ease too.

Haha, don't take the xanax, if you're doing mushies for the first time don't have that safety net. Just let the feeling engulf you, if you're that afraid of the shrooms maybe you shouldn't do them at all.

"that afraid"

i'm not afraid to do them at all. i just don't want a bad trip to be my first experience (but am perfectly willing to accept one)

benzos are for anxiety, getting real worked up during a trip can cause a bad trip. taking a benzo to calm down would therefor reduce the bad trip.

ya dig?


i'm taking the shrooms regardless :tongue2:

Lol, cool. In my crazy version of the world i see mushrooms as something you're not supposed to control, you take them specifically to be put outside your comfort zone. If i had the xanax i'd be too tempted to take it at the first sign of a bad trip. Again thats just me talking, not some professional advice.

yeah thats completely understandable.
i don't feel like i would use it unless i started full blown buggin though.

not to mention, i had no desire in having any for my first trip at such a low dose.. but possibly for higher doses in the future. just thought it woudl be good info to have.

if ur scared to bad trip then u shouldnt trip at all.. u gotta get over ur fear of bad tripping.. worrying about bad tripping is what will cause to end up havin a bad trip
the trip is wat u make of it.. if u want to go to a happy land on mushies, then go! dont think about negative or scary things and if they come up during the trip simply let them pass and dont let them bother u.. ull be fine dont be scared.. mushrooms are beautiful and full of wonder!

No need to fear! Stay positive grab a couple grams, pop them in your mouth, chew and swallow. Don't trip alone your first time and do them when you've had a day that's been good enough to counter any remaining fears you have...don't try to control your trip, just remember to breathe deeply when it gets intense, and if you feel like its getting bumpy, get up and dance or jingle some keys or listen to chill music. You'll have fun, just get the bad stuff out of your head...I've had several "intense trips" but 0 trips that I would call "bad"

skor, take 2mg worth or what is referred to as a bar.

xanax comes in .5mg, 1mg, and 2mg tablets.

I reccomend only taking the xanax if you KNOW that the trip is taking a terrible turn and it's in your best interest to stop it. Don't listen to Meaty, some people have very negative reactions to psychedelics and there is nothing to prove by putting yourself through hell if you are one of these people.

If you think you can withstand a bad trip, I highly reccomend it, usually those "bad" moments fade very quickly and soon turn to marvelous ones.

Happy trails.

:hippie:

I didn't read most of the responses but after reading your initial post it's clear to me you still need to do some research. The best thing that you can possibly do to assure yourself that taking them is a good thing is to do your homework. A lot of those questions are things you should already know. The more you research the more you will be comfortable in trying them.

I would suggest Sacred Mushroom of Visions: Teonanácatl by Ralph Metzner. This book is a great source for learning more about mushrooms.

Mr_Teonanacatl: my thoughts exactly!

fsdoubleflip: RTFM! The questions you asked speak volumes as far as how much research you really did. Before experimenting with powerful shit like psilocybin, you should read everything you can get your hands on.

oh of course, but it's better to have questions answered directly from people who have already experienced shrooms, you know?

- How much should a good amount of shrooms (for a beginner) cost?
- What should they look like? (pictures would be appreciated)
- Should I do it with a friend around?
- How much should I do the first time? (in terms of number of shrooms, since i do not have a scale to measure grams)
- What is the best and easiest way to prepare and/or eat the shrooms?




- 2g, ~$15. It's a bit more than 1/2 eighth, you will be completely in control. This is DRIED, not fresh.
- There are other threads with pictures, use the search bar, type "what does look like" and it should pop up.
- only if your other friend is also tripping, or is at least high. A sober friend is generally embarrassing or has negative vibes. It's funner if everyone's tripping, you'll feel most comfortable!
- number of shrooms, is about 3 caps = 2g. If you don't have a scale. Give or take half a cap, it's not gonna make that big of a difference in the long run.
- preparation? If they're dried, just eat them, or make a simple PB/J sandwich if you're concerned about taste. In the future, you may want to use the "Lemon Method".

And guess what, I know all this, WITHOUT EVER HAVING DONE SHROOMS! See how much you can learn? And I'm probably not gonna do shrooms till next spring at least. And guess what, you know what the best way to eliminate your fear is? Do ACID! It's guaranteed a better experience, I've only taken 1/2 hits of acid, and it's totally eliminated my fears of drugs. I feel like I can do anything after that - plus, acid's a lot cheaper.

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 :smile:

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 :smile:

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 :smile:

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.

The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing. One cannot help but be in awe when he contemplates the mysteries of eternity, of life, of the marvelous structure of reality. It is enough if one tries merely to comprehend a little of this mystery every day. Never lose a holy curiosity. ~ Albert Einstein
"Fear is the great barrier to human growth." ~ Dr. Robert Monroe

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  :undecided:

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.

I'm surprised a mod hasn't been in here and banned you yet. On the front page of the site, it distinctly displays that you MUST BE 18 OR OLDER TO USE THIS SITE.

It's not like we don't want you here, we just don't feel like dealing with any kind of legal action should you do something stupid and get yourself in trouble. That's the kind of stuff that gets Ythan in trouble and ultimately gets this place shut down.

Come back after your birthday, and I'll be more than happy to tell you anything you want to know.

Don't be worried about trying something new, either. Mushrooms have been used for thousands of years by people all over the world. You really think there's anything you need to be worried about? push all the propaganda you've been fed your whole life out of your head for now, and just give it a shot. You have very little to lose, and worlds to gain.
