That's the way reality is... it is subjective and experienced only from your point of view. Realizing that suddenly might come as a shock, but it isn't a bad thing. You are getting closer to understanding life. The truth can be scary sometimes.
Here's an article on the subjectivity of reality to help you make sense of it:

You are on a path to greater understanding. Yes, things have changed, and no, you can't go back. That is ok.

try some breathing exercises. I used to have scatterbrain and sparatic thoughts but I realized it was all in my breathing. I would get so into my head my breathing patterns would be affected. Simply lie down and simple meditation techniques work. Breath in deep and slowly and release deep and slowly. I get a great sense of well being and content. Sooner or later your body will almost always breathe like that and you will be calm.
It's like you know when something startles you and your breath gets ahead of you or you get ahead of it. Well practcing breathing centers yourself so, at least for me, that does not happen. This greatly helped my crazy thoughs and now I can think clearly and I can think about 1 subject for a long period of time.
My old thoughts would be crazy like random ass schizo type thoughts. Really out there shit. I hated it but could not control it.
Give it a try.

1. Occupy your time with things you enjoy.
2. If you have trouble enjoying anything then occupy your time doing things you can tolerate more than others.

OP: The idea of subjective reality is pretty common. There are tons of places you can read more on it (like what Whiskey posted.) Part of the movie Waking Life talks about it too.
As for the 2 gs of mushrooms, well, that isn't a RIDICULOUS amount to take your first time. That, too, is also subjective. Your friend may have found it to be perfect, but that doesn't mean it was for you. Don't blame your friend or you being an idiot. 2 gs is typically what I recommend to people.

Yea 2g is a legit first dose. I ate 3.5 and I was fine. Probably a mixture of the setting and my size but yea it is different for everyone.

Wtf...you take shrooms, get on a different train of thought, and need to take pills because this new train of thought is so tough to handle?
COME ON, no offense, but this is ridiculous. Toughen up. Best of luck.

set and setting, as always. Thats your answer.
And also, you need to look at where you are at in life. From my experiences, if your not proud of it and can look back recently with a smile, your trips are going to reflect that.

Some idiot told you to take 2 grams? Two grams isn't shit I recommend an eighth for the first time, you need to chill out and just go with it. You can't try to fight it, and there's no reason to think you're going crazy how do you not realize you just ate mushroom? You can't let mushrooms make you feel bad, you need to realize that before you were ignorant and now you know something that you didn't before. Would you want to go your whole life being oblivious?

Honestly there isn't a good answer on how things are or how they should be. But pretending that you are at the center of everything seems to work for most.

Help me understand why it frightens you to know that life is subjective. I'm not being a smart ass. I just don't understand. Maybe I'm just all high and can't comprehend but help me out.

Seriously, have you tried any sort of meditation techniques? They really can make peace in your mind.

I can't figure out why something that you're so happy about is making you so upset. You're happy, right?. 
Try mediation, as others have suggested. It sounds like you just need to recognize and control certain emotions in your brain. We all need to do that but right now, it's imperative that you learn how to keep negative emotions from taking control of you. You have to recognize the emotion and then it loses power over you, which allows for positive emotions to come through.
