So the other subject that worries me a little and that I wanted to talk about is the ''convulsions'' aparently it happens to a lot of people (I've read at least 5 o 7 reports here on the shroomery and on those reports they talk about other reports and about it not being so uncommun as most people think). What's the deal with that? any inputs?

(sorry for the long reply beege, I didn't think it would be so long xD )
I'm gonna do it anyway, just want to know what i'm really getting into, not even for myself, but for the people who would sit for me (who don't know shit about psychedelics by the way, at least for now). Imagine my mom or a friend sees me having convulsions and does something stupid(like calling an ambulance) and we both get in trouble just because '' they got scared and worried about me''. I'm just trying to find the smartest way possible to explain all the possibilities to my mom and close ones before getting into deep water (large doses) without scaring the hell out of them or turning them against shrooms (which wouldn't be good for me at all). I just feel I need them to be as prepaired as myself (even more than myself probably) for EVERYTHING so they really understand that NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS it's gonna be alright, at least until I'm experienced enough to trip alone far from home or meet some experienced or otherwise skilled, trustful sitter...these concerns come from my last trip where I was the one who had to calm everybody down and explain stuff that I wasn't sure of (like saying I'm physically alright, don't worry and thinking Am I? at the same time, it's hard to convince people of things you don't really know while tripping and questioning everything).
EDIT: and of course if i'm not conscious I won't be able to calm anybody down and that's how it could get messy and somebody might do something stupid.
I'm sorry If I bothered and I hope you understand why I ask. Everybody says like, get informed, be respectful, cautions, prepaired etc etc. and that's all i'm trying to do :P
But if everything else fails, I'll follow your advice and just ball up and do it xD I just wanna do it right though you know?

He's just trying to be informed about this before he goes into it
There are a dozen threads i've seen telling everyone who's curious to be informed and cautious
Just so you know
Psilocybin Cubensis is a safe drug, very very difficult to overdose on Does not damage your mind, liver or any vital organs
People who freak out/have convulsions/run naked or any other form of craziness, are just because they think they are just getting high, when it's much more than that
Go ahead and do it at a low to moderate dose
and you'll be fine
dont trip yourself out

as TastyPop has said, psilocybin is a very safe substance. You have nothing to be afraid of. Start off with a low dose and you will see how silly it was to be so worried about this. You really don't even need a sitter, my first dose was alone as well as my first heroic dose and I had no problems at all... except I got a bit lonely and I wouldn't have minded a hand/body to hold on the heroic dose

lool thanks for your answers. I know mushrooms are safe and have tripped 3 times before and started low as recomended. I was just planning for the future, for when I go into larger doses territory and stuff xD It's not really myself that I worry about is the people around me: Exemple: If I'm having convulsions I'm sure I wouldn't even notice it myself...but other people might freak out and do stuff I wouldn't want them to do or may say stuff like ''you were having convulsions it's obviously dangerous, please don't trip again ''. Anyway it's all clear now, thanks a lot for everything, I think I'm just gonna keep tripping and see what happens I'm probably not the type of person who would have convulsions or am I? :p

I don't know. I would have to do two things
A) take a look at your brains electrical patterns while psilocyn was effecting it
B) Learn how to distinguish what electrical pattern in the brain occurs with convulsions
I don't think you will. And if YOU don't think you will, you won't

the thing with psychedelics is that you're brain is going to be working a little differently, no matter what. i remember my first heavy acid trip, i was thinking that if i was left alone especially in the horrible condition i was in (The Fear, freezing cold, starving, paranoid) i could have done something stupid. if it werent for those that were with me i probably would have lost control.
the only thing im trying to get across is if you can somehow catch yourself before you even act on an impulse. like just saying to yourself "i know im on mushrooms, and i know that if just relax and stay calm nothing bad will happen to me". you also have to stay safe, but that's a given id hope:)

I think lots of the people who do really weird things while tripping either have some kind of psychological problem or are just not mentally prepared to trip.
If you keep the dosage at the low to moderate range you should be able to keep a reasonable amount of control.
