A little background: I've done a lot of psychedelics (hundreds of trips) and big doses but mostly on LSD and mostly 30 years ago. I did take shrooms back then with no ill effects. That was all recreational use, going to concerts, etc. Lately, I've been revisiting shrooms because I'm interested in the therapeutic value and also consciousness exploration. I had my first real dose in decades a few months ago. I took 3.5 grams of cubensis (source from a friend). The first couple of hours were quite uncomfortable. I felt super-speedy like I had way too much coffee. I wrote this off to having way too much coffee (I did have a lot coffee just before dosing). In retrospect, I should have paid more attention to this. In the intervening months I've done low dose a few times .25-1g. I also noticed this effect but it was OK because the dose was low. Yesterday, I took 5.1g of powdered cubensis (my own grow) in a cup of water, A couple of hours prior to that I had a light breakfast with 1 cup coffee and 1 up of tea. I felt totally good and normal. Calm and healthy. Within 10 minutes I could feel it hitting (unusually fast). 15 minutes and I needed to lie down. Got in bed with eye shades and music, ready to enjoy. But the speedy feeling kept building. I felt like I was going to climb out of my own skin. I kept reflexively taking big breaths as if I was short of breath (but don't think was actually short of breath). This just got worse and worse. I tried to convince my self that these were just sensations and not uncomfortable. But it was intolerable. There has been a couple of times where I drank too much caffeine and got speedy in an somewhat uncomfortable way. This was like that times 1000. Honestly, it was pretty horrible and felt very, very wrong and unhealthy. I had no problem with the tripping part of it...just what I expected. But my body felt so ill, I could not enjoy it. I did not have nausea, but my belly and gut were clenched up tightly. And it just would not stop! After about two hours I slowly ate an apple (which was awesome) and started to feel a little better. Over the day, I progressively recovered. The unwanted symptoms seemed to fade at the same rate as the psychedelic effects. Six hours after dosing, I was mostly OK but felt like I was run over. I had a headache at night and feel kind of hung over this morning. I'm not taking any SSRIs or MAOIs (or any psychiatric meds). I do take meds for blood pressure and cholesterol. All the research that I could do did not show an interaction. But it really seems like I might have had some serotonin overload. I'm going to ask my doctor when I see her soon, but am interested to see if other have had a similar experience. Anyone care to share experience, knowledge or speculaton that might shed some light on this? Edited by mycomage (04/14/23 11:50 AM)
