loads of beer + loads of shrooms = trouble?
    #7895314 - 01/17/08 10:30 PM (16 years, 15 days ago)

so I recently obtained an oz of zoomers!!! that me and a close buddy of mine plan on ingesting tomorrow(we have both shroomed a great many times never having a bad trip(every now and then we'd have worse than usual stomach pains but that would subside eventually)). So the plan for tomorrow is as follows eat breakfast at around 9am then go without food until about 645 when we take the shrooms, here is where my concerns lay we also plan on having a decent amount of beer and some tequila(probably about 6 beers each and about 5ish tequila shots that we will consume around the same time we eat the shrooms) is this going to prove to be a giant stomach upsetter plan?

PS: ingestion method is to grind up mix with juice and shoot. we will probably start with around 3 grams each then have another three in an hour or two.

thank you in advance
-alex

From what I hear, yes liquor+shrooms can be troublesome. Mostly due to the nausea, which can be a bit rough for the first 30 mins or so.

From a more personal opinion, I'm not big on mixing drugs. Alcohol seems like the polar opposite of mushrooms in terms of the experience. But I say, what the fuck! No way to know for sure until you try it right? Bottoms up, Psychonaut.

yup... i dont see how putting yourself in such a conflicting mindspace can be fun.

that being said, i have friends that are so scared of their own mind that they cant trip without alcohol's mind numbing effects.

to each his own i guess

Ive nver had a problem with it. We'll often have mix large doses of both shrooms and beer and it seems to go quite well together i must say. It may bring your trip down abit but hey if you have plenty of shrooms you'll be sorted. Only problem Ive had with it is when I first started shrooming I came very close to passing out a couple of times but havent had a problem since. I think this is due to both the shrooms and alcohol lowering your blood pressure.

don't space out your mushroom doses, eat what you are taking all at once. why have a prolonged mediocre trip when you could have a great level 4-5 trip. the only drug i ever mix with shrooms is pot, and i don't do that too often because sometimes it makes me become self analytical in a negative way, and i start to get thought loops. but thats just me.

So long as you're looking for nothing but recreation, I suppose. I don't know about everyone else here, but that certainly is not the case for me.

IMO shrooms is just a way to have good time. I see alot of people saying u learn so much from shrooms like you go into the spirit world and see ghosts. To me I just eatem so I can stay up late and feel good. Just my oppinion of course everyone is different.

Agreed. :thumbup:

Mushrooms and alcohol produce exactly opposite effects. Mushrooms attack your culture, while alcohol embraces it. It's stupid and rather pointless to combine the two.

They don't produce opposite effects. Damn close to it, though. If you want to start talking about the opposite of psychedelics on the psychoactive-spectrum, then consider opiates.

ps if I were you I wouldn't make such sweeping generalizations about what certain psychoactives do concerning your "culture." That's incredibly subjective, and also depends on what kind of culture you are talking about.

The only time I mixed the two was after me and a buddy had an eighth. About 4 and a half hours later both of us we pretty restless, so we each had to beers to ease it up a bit. But I would never mix the to. The alcohol would destroy the shroom trip.

it's more recreational.. if you want to have fun then why not. If you want to gain something out of the experience, then don't do it.

drinking is a more recreational way to dose..it would probably dumb down the effect and take the edge off for people who aren't quite prepared to take the 'whole plunge'

I'd rather just eat the damn things, maybe smoke some herb, not get wasted

Just because you hallucinated on opiates doesn't mean that your hallucination had anything to do with the visuals you get from psychedelics. Those are two fundamentally different things. Opiate hallucinations are delirious, psychedelic visuals don't even literally fit the definition "hallucination." These two classes of psychoactives take you in polar opposite directions -> apathetic senseless hedonism vs. the profound and mystical. Opiates turn the volume down on reality and psychedelics crank it up.

If you want the opposite of CNS depressents, I point you to CNS stimulants.

When I was tripping face I bit through a can and drank it like that, but it was only one beer. I felt great. That many shots with beer might be a bit much though.

ps if I were you I wouldn't make such sweeping generalizations about what certain psychoactives do concerning your "culture." That's incredibly subjective, and also depends on what kind of culture you are talking about.




Western Civilization is inhabited by a vast variety of cultures; however, for the most part, these cultures are extremely similar, for they are all denominations of Western Civilization, the dictorial ruling body of most of the world. Now, I don't know if you live in a cave over in New Guinea or not, but it seems to me that you don't know what you're talking about concerning culture.

First off, you said that opiates are more different than psychedelics than alcohol is, which makes absolutely no sense and shows that you are speaking from inexperience. When you are speaking about mushrooms and alcohol, you have to understand that the only quality that the two of them harbor is the ability to alter consciousness. They are similar in this respect, but they are completely dissimilar in every other aspect. Around the world, where Western Civilization is most prevelant or even only slightly present, alcohol is seen as a conditioner, for it embraces and strengthens every aspect of of that culture. The government knows this.

Have you ever wondered why alcohol is the only legal, widely distributed, and conscious altering mechanism in the U.S. and many other places?

Have you ever wondered why psychedelic mushrooms are the most illegal of substances?

Open up your eyes and your ears. Mushrooms and psychedelics are DECONDITIONERS. Alcohol is a CONDITIONER. They produce completely oppisite effects. My advice to you - Take 5 dried grams of P. Cubensis and go to a party where people are all drunk.

Reality is a kind of chemical habitat, which is sanctioned by culture, that says it's ok to do this and do that; however, when you transcend all of the preconditioning contrived by culture and return to the unique, original wisdom possessed by the animal mind, then you will see a large dimension of opportunity. This is the Ego Loss. This is the psychedelic experience. This is deconditioning. Now, when you drink alcohol, you are drinking it to escape reality. In other words that some alcohol drinkers don't like to acknowledge, you are drinking it to get fucked up. Alcohol doesn't produce a psychedelic experience. It does not result in the loss of one's Ego, but rather, it results in the strengthening of one's Ego. It conditions! It teaches you not to think for yourself. It basically does the exact opposite of psychedelics.




None of this is in the least bit new to me. Alcohol is only the polar opposite of psychedelics if your argument lies solely in the context of its role our society. If you want to talk about the effects of the drug, alcohol stands opposite to CNS stimulants. Psychedelics do have CNS stimulation properties, yes, but they have much more. Incidentally, opiates have CNS depression properties, plus more. In both of these cases, the effects piled on top of the excitation or calming of the CNS, respectively, take you further in effectively the same direction.

ps that's a pretty damn loose interpretation of the "ego loss" phenomenon there, especially considering that "ego loss" refers to a condition in which you entirely lose cognisance of your "identity."

Frankly, when people consider similarity, they don't actually take into account the anatomical reactions that are produced by certain mechanisms when taking into consideration the psychological experience. That argument, when speaking about the effects of psychedelics, alcohol, opiates, etc., really stands no ground in a thread like this. Just because it triggers a certain biological process, doesn't mean that the effect is going to be even remotely similar. Take for instance, Ritalin and Cocaine, which both have very similar neurological reactions, for they both increase dopamine levels. Now, wait a second, since they both have this slight chemically reactive similarity, they must be the same! Why don't doctors just prescribe Cocaine instead of Ritalin? Hmmmm.... Maybe because they produce completely different effects....

All conscious altering substances that are ingested are going to be similar because they react on the brain. In other words, what you are doing is making an extremely broad categorization.

Maybe you don't know what an Ego Loss is. That interpretation was provided by none other than Terence McKenna, who once said just what I typed almost word for word.

P.S. - Your whole little P.S. thing is really gay! :shrug:




so which is the worst drug, cocaine?? rittalin?? or maybe, adderall!

Thank you, Lieutenant Blatant. I never said anything about their neurotransmitter-related actions. I was talking about how they effect you psychologically, GIVEN that the effects are because of their actions on neurotransmitters. This is what we have classifications for. Psychedelics, CNS stimulants, dissociatives, CNS depressents, opiates, deliriants, hypnotics, and so forth. It is indicative of what their effects on your body and your perception are. As far as the Ritalin/cocaine comparison goes, while they are very different, they are both CNS stimulants, which drastically takes away from your point.

Point me to when I did that, please. I'm personally very adament about not generalizing psychoactives any more than is necessary. I'm quite sure that the only categorization I made involved categorizing psychoactives with analagous action.

Oh, are you under the impression that it stands for "penis sex," sir? Because I can assure you that it is not the case. Sorry, I want to trust you, but it's difficult for me to believe that a post script is homosexual.

P.S. - don't get me wrong, I agree with essentially your whole point and have made virtually the same speech straight from my own mind at least a dozen times, and have even called alcohol the opposite of psychedelics. After learning more about psychoactives, however, I learned that while alcohol is on the opposite side of the spectrum, and has effects which wholly contradict those of psychedelics, it is not the most direct opposites, and that is what I have been talking about.

expect to get way too fucked up way too fast

you will probably puke. (key: DONT SMOKE ANY BUD AFTER YOU HAVE DRUNK THE ALCOHOL AND HAVE EATEN THE SHROOMS, it will fuck your world over, in the worst imaginable way...i cant stress this point enough)

if you want drunk trippin, try DXM, its sorta like drunk trippin. but seriously, i would never mix mushies with alcohol and here is why, the mushies are bound to already give you some stomach discomfort, especially if its your first time, and the alcohol is going to amplify that, hardcore.

you are gonna have a lot of shit in your stomach, keep trashcans near by. a quarter of mushies and that much alcohol is virtually begging to have a bad time. if anything, take a couple shots to calm your nerves and eat an 1/8....

My only bad trip (fetal position on the concrete outside a papa john's crying), among many ridiculously high doses, was the time I took a moderate dose and decided to chug vodka. Take that for what it's worth.

Beer helps settle your stomach sometimes. It's a beautiful drink. When choosing a good shrooming beer, find something that tastes good warm because you may drink much more slowly than usual. Beer is good, and there is nothing wrong with having a good time when you're tripping. It would be so frustrating to trip with someone who's all uptight and trying to guide your trip and tell you how bad beer is and stuff like that. Get a grip suburban shamen.

Some folks really need to lighten up, Peace, love, and happiness can really come out of these experiences if you let go and have a good time. Maybe you'll learn something about yourself and friends in the process.

I too used to demonize alcohol, and many people are not happy drunks, but I'm a happy (if sometimes too friendly and a little annoying) drunk, and I think it makes my life better. If you're the bad crazy type of drunk, then don't drink.

ya this is just another example of (if your an asshole deep down than when drunk you will be an asshole) when i get drunk i am more peacefull than usaul.
one of my friends once attacked me at a party,(because he was drunk) in any other sitaution i would have started throwin fists for sure, but i was drunk and all i did was dogde his attacks and subdue him.

alchohol is a great drug if you arnt a fuck face, just like shrooms is a great drug if you arnt a fuck face.
