never tripped - seeking advise
    #7993347 - 02/07/08 07:22 PM (15 years, 11 months ago)

me again. how's it going?

I've never tripped on anything except shit on the floor.

Before I go out and get some shrooms or whatever, I wanna know some things:

I weigh close to 300 lbs. Is the amount you take related in any way to your body mass? I understand it depends on the potency of the shrooms or whatever but is there a correlation to body weight and how much to take?

if so...

Being 300 lbs, how much should I take for a nice, mellow trip where I see the walls breathing, I see nifty colors and little indian dudes dancing around on my floor?

Also, I'm not schizo by any means but I do have depression. I hear that depending on your psychological state, you shouldn't do shrooms lest someone enter a permanent state of paranoia and become disconnected with reality. I don't want to be a drooling idiot in the state psych ward so what precautions should I take? I mean, should I be in a good place at the moment like having a happy, joyous week and then down some shrooms and it won't effect me like that or can I have a gloomy week, down some shrooms and it won't effect me like that?

Are there obvious tell-tale signs that someone is taking a ride on the cosmic roller-coaster?

wait until you are in a happy state. weight does effect the strength, but not as much the random tolerance that people have to shrooms. some people need alot, some need a little. experiment around with different dosages, but start lowish, 1.5g - 3g. set and mood, and people around you are important to having a good trip. stay with best friends, or alone in your house.

GL and learn something!

dude..

i mean not attacking you, but that's not a healthy weight.

yeah my buddy is like 250 i think and he took a SHITLOAD his first time and didn't trip at all..

i took a little less and tripped balls so i think body mass has a lot to do with it. and it takes a lot to get me going..

if you have a good attitude going into them, you'll most likely have a good experience. there's no telling because i dont know you or your brain chemistry more than the two posts you've made on this forum.

if you're having a happy, joyous week, then you wouldn't be depressed so yeah. i wouldn't take drugs when you're in a bad/gloomy mood unless you are strong at mind.. and definitely not for your first time no matter how large you are.

yes. people will be able to tell if you are tripping. if not for physical (pupil dilation, sweating possibly, etc) but you'll just say some weird shit.

dont take it if you are going to have to interact with people that aren't approving/understanding. that's a bad experience.

wow this was a long post.. welcome to shroomery.. i gotta go finish writing my environmental interpretation paper.

Start with a very low dose. People like one of my friend get tripping really hard with only 0.5 gram, dry.

Taking less is better than too much.

There are little chances that you see dancing indians on the floor.

Yes, go when you'r in a happy state with a good friend of you. Try to trip in a place where you don't have responsability. Not in your house if someone call for you on the telephone. Or if people like your parent make a surprise visit. You definitively don't want to be disturbed.

Also, if something goes bad think about the facts that :

1: You won't die. Never.
2: You are the only person to know that you'r high
3: If something get really bad you'll see about it thomorrow. It's tripping time.

Last advice: Be sure to be near some relaxing music like "Simon and garfinkle" or somekind of "sounds of nature". It may really help you if you'r unable to take control of your "stress".

i would say that you should disregard the comment about the fat friend not tripping hard at all on the same amount as him. the potency of shrooms is determined by how your body works. If you have a natural tolerance for shrooms, then you will need much more to trip. if you have a very very low tolerance for shrooms, you will only need 0.5g to trip at all. It really depends on each person, and if you have absolutely no tripping experience, I would recommend that you stay within the 1.5g-2.5g area just because it will be a healthy dose, and even if you have a low tolerance, it still wont be too bad of a trip.

About your depression, I have friends who have the same issues. They have tripped with me the two times that I tripped and they were great. You really just need to find a time where you have balance. Balance is important because too much of this or that is bad, but when you aren't feeling sad, or happy, but maybe just feeling up to eating a couple grams of shrooms, then go for it. Make sure you dont have any serious problems that you are constantly drawn to think about, and if you do and you still want to trip, I would suggest meditating once a day for the week before to really coem into contact with your problems and hopefully taking them away from your mind.

EDIT: and as a side note, I found that for my first trip, going out into a ravine with one or two good friends, who also tripped, was a great experience. Mind you, going alone into a ravine might not be such a great idea. Also, for after you get bored of the ravine or nature, I would say that you should have a house to crash at after the first 3 hours or so. Also, remember to bring anything you think you would need in the ravine, but not too much because you might not feel like carrying a huge bag when you're tripping. Just expect the unexpected.

Agreed. Also don't go into the trip thinking its all about visuals and wall breathing. Sometimes I don't even get visuals in my trips. It's all about what you learn and see and how you can apply it to your life. That's not to say that it's not going to be fun or anything.

Have fun and I'm sure you will be fine. Do not go into a trip worried, erase all fears and second-thoughts. You have to know you are going to trip.

if you are prone to depression, hallucinogenics are not a good idea. the trip will seem full of mystery and fascination at first, but once you figure out how it works, it looses its fun and you just wish it would stop. i've had some long (we're talking days), depressing comedowns that i don't think i've ever fully recovered from. so be mindful of what you may do to your mind.

but if you do decide to go for it, shrooms would be a good idea because they don't last as long as acid, gelltabs or mesc. you'll trip hard for a few hrs and get tired after that. Shrooms always gave me the yawns.

i was pissed about the fat friend thing because..

he's fat and ate up most (almost twice as much as me) of my hard-earned shrooms, didn't trip, and he's not even MY friend.. he was afoaf.

then he bitched about how 'he wasn't feeling anything' and kinda ruined it for the rest of us.. then he ate MORE shrooms without asking me and then wouldn't take me home so i could go get some puss-ay.. so he was a cockblock as well.

anyways. dont do that to your friends, or your friend's friends. i think it was just because he was all jacked up on adderall or something and is trying to take it to lose weight/throwing up i dont know.. dont get in his business..

either way, if you're not tripping, dont fuck it up for everyone else because you're fat and cant enjoy it.

hope that you can get some effects though you dont sound like a douche at all and you sound very level-headed so i hope everything goes awesome for you. have you looked into growing? it's very easy and i recommend it more than having to buy drugs and shit..

My first time tripping, I ate about 2 grams. I weigh roughly 160 pounds and I'm 6'3". I had a very strange trip. It seemed like the high faded in and out, and I was very, very irritable. Anything that I felt would interfere with my trip, I got angry at, consequently bringing me down. Everything in my house was more interesting than ever before, but I never saw vivid colors or hallucinated at all. Like I said, I ate 2 grams. Some tolerance levels are different. :shrug:

Shrooms might possibly help with your depression. They certainly have with mine. That's not to say to take them when your depressed, that's a horrible idea, but they just give you a new outlook on life almost and you keep a lot of what they taught you which you don't lose after the trip.

I have about normal tolerance, my average dose is 2.5-3.0 and I've tripped off of 0.2 before. Granted it was in no way a deep experience or anything, but I was definitely feeling it, way more than I would have thought I would off of just 0.2
