You got ripped off pretty badly. Sorry to say but that's not an 1/8 (not even nearly an 1/8). Also, for the price of $50 you should be able to find at least a 1/4. $50 for an 1/8? The highest ever I've heard someone selling them for was $40 and I turned it down for obvious reasons. Don't spend more than $25-30 for a 1/8.

Yeah, I realize how ridiculous it is and at least now I have an idea of what I should be getting whenever someone says it's an eighth. I told my connect that for 60, I want at least a quad. Hopefully those will be coming in soon.
I was thinking about when to take them. I'm going up with some friends to Las Vegas (from LA) and was wondering what it would be like to eat them before the trip. (I wouldn't be driving of course). Whenever I do LSA I pretty much trip in my room, and it gets kinda "boring". I was thinking that just sitting back and watching the world go by out the window might be at the very least, interesting. I would have some good music, which seems like it should make it a fun, relaxing trip. However, I'm wondering if this is a good idea, or if I'm setting myself up for a bad trip (I honestly can't think of how it would end up badly, but I thought I should at least consider it)

One more question...after looking at the erowid page for shrooms, it says that "mild to severe anxiety" and "intense feelings of fear" are sometimes encountered. Now, I've had what might be considered a "bad trip' on LSA, where I had both of those symptoms. Normally though, I don't feel ANY anxiety while tripping. I have basically no experience with shrooms, so I'm wondering how common this is. I know that with weed, it is very common for me to feel some pretty intense anxiety and paranoia. How are shrooms in this respect? How common is it to have anxiety or fear while tripping (assuming everything is going fine). With LSA, I'm actually quite euphoric the whole time but I know they are different substances that should be treated differently. If it is likely to feel anxiety/parnoia while tripping, would taking a benzo kill the psychedelic aspect?
thanks again

anxiety and fear have never happened to me on shrooms and ive tripped more times then i can count. if you have recently encouteredd a bad situation in life thta is bothering you, then dont eat them becasue thta will cause anxiety most likely. wait until your in the right mindset and enjoy the ride

Alright, awesome. I kind of figured that the fear and anxiety they mentioned were relating to a bad trip, and not a very common occurance. I'm not going through anything remotely distrubing, and depending on the advice here, I might be tripping tomorrow.

For me, I usually encounter mild anxiety at some point in my trip, occasionally mild anxiety is present the whole trip. I don't let it bother me.

Does anyone have any knowledge about taking benzos while tripping? (Hopefully to help the anxiety, but not diminish the psychedelic effects)

If you want to do that, then leave for Vegas in the late afternoon. Take the shrooms a couple hours after you leave L.A. This way, by the time you get to Vegas, it will be dark, and you will be able to enjoy the lights of the Vegas Strip while the effects of the shrooms are near their peak. :-)

I was considering that, but then again, I don't exactly want to be tripping in Vegas. Call me weird, but it doesn't sound like a suitable place (for me at least). Maybe I should go into a Fear and Loathing mindset
Has anyone had any experience tripping in a moving vehicle? It sounds like a good idea to me, but then again, I don't know exactly how the shrooms will affect me. With LSA, I don't really want to move around, and there is a big body load to it which kind of keeps me "static". By the way, it wouldn't be a small car by any means. It's a large van type thing and you can fully straighten your legs and stuff, so it wouldn't be cramped (which I imagine would be one of the possible negatives...)

I have been driven around while tripping before. It is really quite fun. However sometimes while tripping one experiences the urge to get away from people who aren't tripping and this is kind of hard in a car. However if you are with good close friends I can't imagine that it would turn into a serious problem.

The anxiety is worst for me during the come-up, and i have yet to discover the proper arrangement for what i eat before hand and when i eat it that is best for preventing it but i find that i'm super anxious when i take them up until i peak partially because i am so fucking excited to be tripping again and partially because my stomach just starts to toss and turn and get all wobbly when i start coming up.
Set and setting is the important thing, if you have any variety of music playing device (if your driving make sure you have a cd player or tape deck or something) because i find that a favourite song can save you from the depths of the most horrible trip.
Tripping in a car sounds like a fuckload of fun though, seeing everything pass by and thinking all the shit you would think, it would be like a regular trip only like 100+kmh (yeah i'm canadian, get over it)

On my first shroom trip, the car ride was the best part!! sitting in a car watching stuff fly by zoning out to music with the wind blowing in your face is the best. And if your with your friends, you'll be fine tripping by them even if they're sober for the most part, and if not they'll understand if your just doing your own thing and not really chattin it up. As for the anxiety and stuff.... the first few times I tripped, i had some mild anxiety... thinking to myself... dude, what if i get anxiety during the trip and freak out!!! but than once the trip sets in, i get to a point where i'm just like, wow, i was scared about this? This is life!! i can handle this! i bet you'll have a point like that too, where you just realize there's nothing to be afraid of. Don't over think this. Basically, have a good mindset, good friends, and you'll have a good time. tell us how it goes.

Alright, I always thought it would be fun to trip while on a trip (car trip )
Now I need to find a good movie on itunes so I can put it on my new fancy iPod... Any suggestions?

waking life, hands down especially if you havent seen it yet because it raises so many philosophical questions about the nature of life and consciousness etc, and thats perfect on shrooms because i find i always raise these sorts of questions myself. Its very trippy, animated over live-action film, and the entire movie is basically different people discussing their interesting theories on things, youtube it up if your interested.

Personally, i'd rather just chill, think, listen to music and talk to my friends. i think i'd get bored of staring at a small ipod screen, probably distracted too hah. I have never watched a movie tripping though so i dunno

Yeah, after giving it another thought, I think that I will be entertained enough without a movie. The small screen sucks anyways

ya, thats about 1.5 grams give or take .2 grams, or maybe one of those stems is really dense making it at the most, 1.75 grams.
You did get ripped off heavily.
They are cubes.
St johns wort is hardly an effective maoi. Its kind of like passion flower. It can add a boost but it for the most part is utter bullshit. You cant really compare rue or caapi to passionflower.
Maois will make the trip different and more intense as long as you use enough maoi, which is not hard to figure out if you read about it and realize that rue can atleast double the effects of the mushrooms at the 3 gram range.
But ya, you got ripped off hard core.
In all seriousness, that looks like 1.5 grams at best.
That amount makes me trip balls, so have fun. I shit you not about the weight though. Its probably less than 1.5 grams if you are lucky.
Somebody fucked with you BIG TIME.
I mean, fuggin BIG TIME.
My guess is that you have less than 1.5 grams there and it cost you 50 dollars.
Im sorry, but that is much less than 1/8th and you payed 50 dollars for it.
Just look at that dime sitting next to your shrooms. Im sad to give you such an unfortunate, but true answer to your question.

Alright, that kinda makes me a little depressed, but it's all over with now and getting mad at my dealer won't solve much. It just sucks though, getting ripped off (and it's like the 5th time too with this guy)
My main question now is, Does taking a benzo such as Klonopin 4 hours before the trip effect the psychedelic nature of the trip at all? I want to be relaxed and a little euphoric going into it, but wait until after I peak on the benzo before dosing the shrooms. That way, only a smaller amount will be in my bloodstream by ther time the trip comes around. Thanks again, you've all been a great help.
