Hello all,
would like to tell you about the experience I had making a tea of about 4 of these split between my girlfriend and I:

I had not done mushrooms since the spring of 2011, although I try to do them once or twice a year usually. I do it for a few reasons - dig deeper into my mind, "reset" certain aspects of my thinking, and have new experiences.
The point of this trip was to get more in touch with things i felt I have lost over the past few years. I have felt that I have grown distant to loved ones, lost patience with myself, and found a few anger issues in my life. Im approaching 30 and feel I have some pent up depression and baggage in my brain, so I felt it was time to take them again.
Last tea I made a few years back, I felt it come on pretty strong. These ones took a while. I took them with my girlfriend who has never done them before, so I felt I was watching her a bit, but i instantly felt a bit warm and "drunkish" Im used to smoking pot these days so I was just waiting for that. I would say about an hour in the started to kick in. my lady had a tummy ache, but I kept telling her it was fine, and she was okay (never got sick) we were very into talking to eachother on these - music, videos, computers and tv all felt very foreign and not wanted.She was hungry - kept wanting to eat plants (i thought this was funny)
I started to feel distached from my body, which was a new feeling for me - i could see all the things I have been doing wrong in my life, and like watching a character do stupid things in a film - I instantly knew all the answers to my problems and thought it was so silly that I in my own day to day life could not fix them as easily as it seemed now. my girlfriend seemed a bit realived and dumbfounded - that after all these years I finally understood the types of suggestions she was giving me in my own life.
Her trip seemed emotional but in a good way. she had a LOT of sympathy for others and often cried thinking of others misfortunes. TIme the first few hours went by REALLY fast. 3 hours felt like 25 mins.
I really wanted to go for a walk because in the past thats been one of my favorite things. she wasnt so into the idea but I finally convinced her. It was a bit dark out, but christmas lights overwhelmed her senses. we laughed out loud at minute things on the street, and told eachother it was so funny that we were having a really serious conversation about what turn at the end of the block seemed like the best one, with the best energy. We crossed a major street that felt like going through a wormhole. She wasnt into it anymore so we walked back home. At that point I took a shower I kept trying to get into the water flowing and the experience of having the cold air come in through the window, but my girlfriend kept seeing our kitchens reflection in the windows, so I had to end my shower adventure early.
We ate at this point and tried to watch youtube videos, but it was really hard to process all the crazy stuff people were saying so eventually we just turned it off. time started to move veryyy slow (about 4.5 hours into the trip), and we slowly started to shift into a new stage of experience. Eventually we went into bed, I had a really emotional cry (i havent cried in years) about my family, about how we are all getting older and I dont spend enough time with any of them. I thought about family in ways I havent in years. and she fell alseep almost instant. I eventually started reading articles on my phone in the dark about frozen bodies and bodies found preserved for hundreds of years in bogs.
the end of the trip happened when I myself went to sleep. I had my first lucid dream experience. It was really interesting, and i felt like I had control of my brain. very interesting trip. I woke up feeling very refreshed.
Im glad I had this experience. I feel like from it I can take the experiences i had a put them towards the future of my life.
Thanks for reading everyone! if anyone has any info about the type of mushroom this is, and would like that share their experience on them, Id love to hear!
