shrooms and my thought process

Hi I am a soon to be first time shroomer. I have made a couple of threads here since Ive joined and people have been really incitfull and I greatly appreciate the knowledge i have attained. I am an aries born so Im always looking for new ways to help myself so i can help others. I feel like ive been living a life of delusion, and its been kinda in the back of my mind for years. I come from a good family and started smoking weed in early highschool( which they greatly despised of) and started hanging out in the projects dropped out of college sold drugs went to jail ext.. Im 21 now and I honestly feel like there are a lot of parts of myself that I dont know or lost. I feel like I dont know my true voice. Im a very live guy when im feeling good, Im down for anything and loyal to my friends. Those days come and go and when im in a bad mood I feel very hostile and feel the need to look out for any type of trouble that mite come my way. Some of my friends think im crazy, some think its my current situation with my female, but they all say Im the most live smart understanding person when im just chillin. Ive been on lamictal for a couple of days. It helps control me as far as not letting negative emotions dig to deep but theres a problem i feel like i have no feeling, and in turn I feel like i cant access my creative side. I have vivid dreams but I cant visulize situation anywhere near as well as I could off the med( When in a good mood). I used to use weed to aid me in meditation and what I believe allowed it to make my day go from dark to light in 20 minutes is it made me so much more aware of my thoughts. I honestly feel when im like that I can do anything but those periods only have lasted 10 days at most then its back into the emotional mind where i have trouble seeing the light. Bottom line im tired of that shit it makes all my problems that I could solve without second though while in the rite state of my mind seems 10 times worse. My question I have in relation to my situation is will shrooms help me to be constantly aware of my thoughts after the trip? I feel im ready to do them and for real the reason i want to do them is not to trip out for fun and see crazy shit its to help me find out whats causing these inconsistent day, and in turn find myself. life is a circle of pain and I know i would still have my bad days but to be able still to be able to communicate effectivly with people and work through those problems to get back to feeling good is all i want I want to rediscover myself and learn to control my feelings at all times so im hoping they will help me recognize my thoughts and emotions and deal with them. Ive been trying kriya yoga on my own i don t feel at this point I have the patients to pursue that. Feedback anyone ( Im getting 2 gram this week would it be better to trip out on 1?)

youll defintately come face to face wih your thoughts and emotions, even if you dont want to, look in a mirror when you trip, look into your own eyes, meditate and you should find what your looking for 
id go for 1 gram and if you start feeling good take the second gram, remember whatever your feeling shroomz make you feel it ten fold, so just go in with an open mind and dont mix with any crappy pharmaceutical drugs, maybe a little green on the comedown...
i wqas going thru a bad peroid a year or so ago thinking why is life os up and down, but at the end of the day you gotta roll with the punches, its trying to control it that makes it hurt, if you just accept and love life for what it is, it cant be all good otherwise there would be no good.

Chronic gives some good advice!
I'd say with your attitude about your upcoming shroom trip, it should lend itself to be a very positive experience!

cam4... Your writing looks like some effort was put into spelling, punctuation, and presentation. This is good as it shows an organized mind.
Now all you need is some paragraph breaks and I'll actually read it.

Thanks for the feedback. From what I hear the mushrooms im getting are pretty good, considering the fact that I am taking a gram what should I expect in terms of effects. visuals? voices? ehanced feelings? Enhanced thinking? and also on a trip of that magnitude how long does it last?

maybe some enhanced creativity/thinking, and things move a bit if you look at them for a while.

Shrooms can definitely make you more aware of your thoughts. This is probably one of the first insights I had with psychedelics, of how out of control my thoughts were and how when I was not aware of them I just acted like a machine. However, as for getting in control of your thoughts, I'd really recommend continuing your meditative practice. That is especially what has help me. Especially mindfulness during the day. The immediate effects of being aware of your thought stream is..Relaxation. When you can watch your thoughts you see that in a sense they are separate from you and insofar as you do that they lose their grip on you.

Your thoughts should have more of a paragraph
form.
Trip outside your first time*- thats my advice.
