It's ok in the sense that you will not have any bad physcial side-effects. But it will be very hard to trip. As a general rule, you will need to double your dosage of the psychedelic. Even then, the trip will not be the same.

I would not take musshrooms as a way to relax, if you think thats what psychedelics are all about you have the wrong idea...

You're most likely taking an SSRI or SNRI, I would assume. Taking mushrooms would be completely fine.

Honestly this may not be what you want to hear but it's risky to do mushrooms if you have any sort of depression issues, even if they're medicated.

This is true, psychedelics make some people prone to depression very depressed.

yeah i have ocd horribly bad. and when im on shrooms it helps a lot. but unfortunately it doesnt last :/ at least when im on them though i can have some relief :smile:

are you taking the antidepressant for your ocd or for depression and ocd or what exactly>

in any case i think youre best off staying on the medication if its helping you. and you can still use mushrooms with ssri antidepressants, they often weaken the effect though so most people have to take more of a heavy dose to reach the desired effects.

I had ocd quite bad but it faded away after 5 years of ssri treatment,I could say I'm almost completely treated.I don't intend to do shrooms often as I don't want to mess with my medication,just every now and then..

SSRI's will decrease your ability to feel the effects of serotonin related psychedelics, so I wouldn't waste good mushrooms...

I'm in need of a sterile sporeprint, if anyone wants to do a trade for some seeds or something, or maybe just for free if you have a lot of them............. i'd really appreciate it :mushroom2:

I have a question as I've been on SSRIs for 4 years to treat depression, I'm coming off them soon, will this improve the high on shrooms & other substances esp MDMA? I've taken these drugs for years but have not had the same high since on SSRIs, How long after I stop the medication will I get the intense high again?

yes, i dunno maybe a week or a few. depends on the halflife of your particular antidepressant. why are you getting off em after four years though?

Probably the reason I got off them, they blow.
