Will I be able to control myself?

Hey, I was planning on eating shrooms for my first time (about 2 grams of blue caps, is that too much?) at around 9-10 in the morning and I would have to get back home at around 9 at night. Will I be able to act normal around my parents when I get back home after so many hours? Thanks!!

mushrooms trips last about 6 hours, give yourself another 2 hours after that to reflect, youll have plenty of time, and youll be able to act normal in so many hours. youll have a good time. and if your tripping in day light, think about getting some sunglasses, lights get bright :p

You'll definitely be sober by then, but I always need a day or so after a trip to gather my thoughts. Sort of ruins all the good energy I get if I have to work or hang around people who stress me.
2 grams is a pretty reasonable dose, but just keep in mind if you've never done this before that not everyone is the same and people can seriously freak out on even lower doses.

Hello there and welcome.
2 grams sounds good for a first timer.
I strongly recommend not being alone though.
You will be fine concerning coherency and motor skills after all that time will pass.
You may feel the after-effects for a longer time though. But they won't interfere with you "acting normal".
To add, since youre a first timer, here are some tips for tripping. The title "will i be able to control myself" made me think you might want some because tripping is first and foremost realizing that the true "control" derives from a freedom from control. Tripping is about letting go and controlling yourself is not something you'll be wanting to do. not in the traditional sense.
Anyways, I wrote this particular bit to another person on this forum, but I think it will serve you well as it sums up the basic universal principle of tripping and that is exectly what I'd truly like to share to you, but I'm too lazy to completely rewrite the whole damn thing so, if you feel like attaining some general tips, read on and I hope it will be of use:

Nothing within your experience means anything more than it meant at that moment of time. Nothing is to happen or change unless it does. You would be wise to go with each curve of the stream; alter nothing, suggest nothing, interpret nothing, hope for nothing and fear nothing, not even the emotion of raw fear or other distressing emotions that may surge through you at the time of the experience. you need not do anything to make things happen, if youre feeling good as it is, then you should not try to accelerate the experience one bit. if you are around people that aren't tripping, don't feel different. Feel indifferent. Don't feel obliged to "look normal" or practise other limiting thoughts.
everything will go to its own accord, if you feel like dancing- dance. If you have a thought concerning things that disturb you- do not smother the thought. You will be in no position to assess anyting, neither the significance of a vision, nor the graveness of it. But even if you feel overwhelmed- retain your calm and allow whatever is to happen to come to pass, thus feeling overwhlemed but not being it within. the information you are about to receive is beyond that of conventional understanding and linguistic expression- words are completely unnececary as are explanations or logistic timelines/frames. do not be bewildered, horrified or unsatisfied with the situation, be calm and content, listening and grateful for all you are about to experience, be it intense or light. Do not try to put everything you are to experience into a frame to assert certain expectations or preconseptions. Do not try to explain yourself, your feelings or visions, neither to others or yourself. As soon as you try to put words to it- it wil elude you.
also, many trippers may believe high doses= deeper experience. that is an utter folly i have had the pleasure of dabbling in myself for some time. Always remember that the dose is hardly relevant. most important is "the sponge"- how well your mind absorbs the pure information without re-filtering/revamping or interpreting it.
in the end tripping is not about the information you recieve, it is about how you condition yourself to recieve it. it is not about the feelings you get, but the act of feeling itself. and the poetry within the fact, that you seem to learn so much more without putting any effort into it, than you do whilst desperately striving or pushing yourself.
Just remember to go with the flow, make nothing more of it than it was during the magical moment of time and move on with the ineffable lesson learnt, quiet and content. Back to the everyday life and routine. above all- attain and share the Love.
peace
