Getting ready for my first mushroom trip. (I hope there isn't a thousand other threads like this.)
    #7656383 - 11/19/07 07:14 PM (16 years, 2 months ago)

OK, first off, hi everyone. I've been looking into mushrooms for about a month and a half now. I've been looking to see how to have a safe trip and for advice on my basic sketch on what I'm going to do.

Oh yeah, on whether or not I want to be spiritual or just party, I guess it's a little of both.

OK, I want to experience a trip somewhere between "level 2" and "level 3" (though, if you have to lean toward one or the other, make it level 2). I have moderate experience with marijuana and very limited experience with alcohol. My tolerance to marijuana is about after 5 or 6 hits from a onie I can pretty much get what I'd call "high," rather than just buzzed. A very rough example of my tolerance to alcohol is one time I had about 2 and 1/2 shots worth of Calvert's whiskey, (which was 40% alcohol) and I had a decent buzz from that. Not completely messed up, but I definitely felt something.

I felt it was important to give you an idea of my tolerance of substances before you gave me any ideas.

I've read some stuff about set and setting. Now, it says to be a comfortable place. I'm comfortable in my woods, but I fear that would be too dangerous. Is it? Should I have music during my trip? I mostly like black metal (Burzum, Horna, Carpathian Forest), but I wonder if during my altered state of mind this kind of music will scare me. Should I go for pop/dance (O-Zone, Haddaway, Benny Benassi), even though I don't like it as much? Or should I go for less "trippy" music like Tom Petty and Blue Oyster Cult?

I also read that it is good to have candy or fruit around in case of a bad trip. Is there any of these foods that I should stay away from because of choking hazards or things like that?

Also, for my trip sitter I have two people in mind. My best friend, who has a little more marijuana and a lot more alcohol experience than me, but he has no mushroom experience. And then my older brother, who has used mushrooms, LSD, cocaine, and about all the weed and alcohol under the sun. I don't know who to choose because, though my brother is much more experienced than my friend, I'm worried that because he's such a risk taker that he might have some shrooms or weed or alcohol and not be in the best state to guide me in, though I know my friend will stay sober.

NOTE: When using mushrooms, I will not be using any other mood-altering chemicals within a reasonable time period.

So my basic wrap-up would be these questions.

1) How much shrooms should I take based off my tolerances to other things and get the high I want? (Note: I'm 5'8 and weigh 151 pounds.)

2) Should I take the shrooms in my woods or in my house?

3) Out of the styles of music I listed, which one(s) is/are the most suitable, or does it not matter?

4) [Please answer the question about the fruit and candy.]

5) Which of those two trip sitting candidates should be the one?

6) How much will the dosage that I want cost in central Minnesota at this time of year?

7) What will it look like, and how much will it weigh?

8) What does it taste like? Any other kind of mushrooms?

9) Is there a "glazing" effect with shrooms, or is the trip over when it's over?

10) After smoking about a dime worth of weed on Saturday night/early Sunday morning, I spontaneously started to "glaze" at about 2:30 PM on Monday/Today after being normal the whole day. Is this normal, or is it all in my head? If it's not in my head, should I stay away from shrooms?

I really appreciate all of your help.

I'd say go for 2 g's.

I'd do it in the woods, if it was day out. and warm.

Music: Play whatever makes you happy.

Stock up on fruit haha.

Go with the more experienced person, as the sitter. Unless you're uncomfortable with them

Prices will probably vary from dealer to dealer.

Seriously, it looks like a penis. But that's the only corresponding thing about it. It'll weigh whatever the dose you got.

It tastes earthly, sometimes mildly bitter. But I enjoy em.

When the trip is over you'll be left going "HOLY....HELL.wow."

Overall, you should be good. have fun, sailor.

Hope I helped.

Eat an eighth.

Take them in your house, and then when you start to feel good go for a walk into the woods.

Listen to the music that you enjoy the most.

Pick the sitter you are closest to, I didn't read all of your post.

Maybe $25-35..

It will look like a handful of shroom stems and caps, it will look dry and weigh 3.5 grams.

Dry mushrooms don't taste too bad, I would grind them up and eat it with peanut butter if i were you.

There are definitely effects after you come down, but you will feel amazing after your trip is over.

It's just in your head that's not a problem with me, I smoke pot all day.


Have fun, just be prepared to go outside your comfort zone and you have nothing to worry about. Know that going into the trip you might think of some weird shit, but you have accept it and move on. If it starts to get ugly then change your environment, go for a walk or something.

What are the different effects of eating them right away and holding them in my mouth for x amount of time?

Nothing it doesn't get absorbed in your mouth it gets digested like any other food.

Oh, ok. I thought it could be absorbed in your mouth like chewing tobacco. But then again that cuts you first.

I'm sure these questions are getting old, but would being on weed prior to using mushrooms give a better chance of having a good or better trip? Could it help soothe a bad trip?

Ok, thanks for all your help. If anyone has any additional information go right ahead.

DO NOT eat food's or candies high in sugar man. I know from experience, it makes a bad trip kind of. Like the hyperactivity mixed with the paranoia of the mushrooms, its just insane, i experienced it last time i took mushrooms.


I did however notice natural foods REALLY calmed me down.
such as; sunflower seeds, fruits, cereals.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but sugar does not cause hyperactivity, or any psychoactive effect whatsoever.

If you like candy, eat it.

My advice is not to worry so much.  Don't be so afraid of things going wrong.  Don't even think about things going wrong.  There's a fine line between being prepared for the worst and expecting it.  It may not make sense or even be possible at this point because you really don't know what to expect and you're afraid of having a bad time, but honestly, in order to have a good trip you have to leave your worries at the door.  It isn't hard.  Just let go.  You will not die.  You will come down.  And everything is absolutely perfect.  Fall in love with yourself and Life.  Remember, the only thing to fear is fear itself.  Just keep your thoughts away from 'I did something wrong.'  There is nothing at all to worry about.  Really.  It will be the greatest experience of your life, if you want it to be.  Just keep your head up.

I wouldn't eat an eighth my first time, if I were you.  I did, and was in over my head.  It turned out to be life-changing, but you may not want to go that route, as it can be pretty fucking overwhelming.  I'd go for 2g to start with, 2.5 if you're feeling really good about it.

I recommend a sitter that you are very comfortable with, like your best friend.  NEXT time, you can trip with your brother.  Once you get a feel for it.  It's great to have someone tripping with you, comparing your visuals and having great philosophical conversations. 

Then again, tripping with your brother the first time wouldn't be a bad idea, so long as he was either sober or on the same amount of mushrooms as you are.  Since he has experience, he'll be more understanding of what you're going through.  They both seem to be pretty good choices.

The woods or your room, that's up to you.  Whichever is more comfortable.  I've noticed being outside (especially with people) is a much more fun and enjoyable time than sitting in a room.  Both are very unique trips. 

You may not want any music at all.  If you do, put something in.  Whatever you like. 

There is a bit of a glazing effect.  But at the same time, once it's over, it's over.  You'll just be high on your own astonishment.  If you're anything like me, you'll want to go back immediately.  :lol:

Enjoy it, my friend.  Happy trails. :mushroom2:

Oh and by the way, it doesn't taste good.
Some people don't mind it much. I personally think it's disgusting. Like pre-chewed sunflower seeds. Or raw turkey. I pour like half a container of some really strong condiment on them, like barbeque sauce or peppercorn ranch and try to get them down as quickly as possible. I wouldn't recommend that though, as it doesn't help too much. I just hate peanut butter. If you like it, eat them on a PB sandwich. Chew them up as good as you can for a bit of a faster comeup and comedown.

listen to deadendeavor he's got the right idea, i've tripped on mushrooms 7 times and have never had a bad experience, although one time it started going south remind yourself, hey, i just spent 35$ and this is in my head, relax, have a good time, and remember its all in your head.

Yea thats a good way to think of it, whenever i start getting the fear i just think to myself: You're tripping and will come down, you wanted this experience because its a great thing, you spent a good amount of money on this experience, and you probably won't get to do this for a while again, so ENJOY it. That usually does the trick and i feel fine, in fact way better then fine.
