So I'm still experimenting with different drugs and I think it's time to try psychedelics. I might pick up a quarter of some shrooms (only gonna eat about 3g) this week and trip on the weekend.

I'm a little worried. I don't know many people who actually have tried shrooms, and the ones that have all tell me to go for it. But I have that doubt still.

I just want to know what your expectations of shrooms were and if they met those expectations when you first did them.

I'm hoping to get a real good introspective look on my life. not necessarily learn who i am, but see how i can change myself for the better.

yes, you should go for it. just don't be worried about it, relax, go outside, and listen to some chill music for a good time. I never really had any expectations though, but if you just chill out then it won't be a problem.

Just a question, how many are you supposed to do your first time?
3g's sounds like a lot. Erowid suggests 1-2g as a common dosage.
I'm growing some now and planning on trying them pretty soon.

Imagine yourself sitting in a windowless box for your whole life

Now imagine yourself eating some shrooms

Now imagine a wall opening, you walking out and taking a good look at the box, its immediate surroundings and into the distance

I'm growing some now and planning on trying them pretty soon.Potency varies a lot, but 1-2g most likely won't be enough...I personally hate that "inbetween" state. 2.5-3.5g is my standard dose.

i under dosed my first and only shroom trip...

I did not trip mentally as hard as i would like but got a decent amount of visuals....

LSD on the other hand... one and a half hits, by all means not a large dose had me out of my mind, feeling insane but the happiest ive ever felt, not to mention the thousands of thoughts that raced through my mind.

LSD went above and beyond all expectations.... Like nothing i could have imagined, but more than i could have ever dreamed....

My first time on shrooms 3.5g dry --

Bought 'em on Wednesday, had to wait 'til Friday to take 'em.

Friday night I get home from school, grind 'em up, mix with a half cup of milk. Mate calls me up and asks if I want to toke some herb.

He arrives about ten minutes after ingestion, we start smoking and get a good buzz going on.

Exactly thirty minutes after ingestion I get the feeling to go exploring, and absolutely had to get out of my environment. Not a bad feeling, just one urging me not to stay where I was at that moment.

So we go cruising around in his car. He's not tripping, but anyways, we're cruising around listening to Pink Floyd, I've got a million thoughts going through my head, and tell my friend, "Hey, if you have any deep philosophical questions that need answering, ask me now, I've got the answers." Then I laugh maniacally.

Colors seemed more vivid, I felt more in tune with the universe.

And then the next four or five hours passed by in a haze of deep self-realizations, breathing walls, and an incredible sense of unity with nature.

I highly recommend it.

don't do less then 3grams. have weed. if you smoke have a pack. music is a must. just chill out and have a good time

your expectations are going to be totally different than what actually happens, go for it, make sure to have some friends with you, other wise you might get bored, they should be tripping too...good luck.

Do it, seriously, its fuuuuuun, you learn about yourself, hell, at some point in your trip you're going to know everything, just do it dude, dont be worried about it, being worried about bad trips creates bad trips, not a good state of mind, just do it with a friend.
I dont know about doasages, just much about 15-20, thats usually enough (compensate if you have more biggies though)

I expected to just trip balls and have a good time being a dumbass. I came out a better more mature person, and I learned a lot about myself and the way I feel about things.

You will most certainly get this.

My first time was incredible, me and 3 other friends ate a half-eighth (I think) each, and all came up as we ran full-force into the woods, backpacks bouncing along and minds racing.... What a night :D

Now imagine a wall opening, you walking out and taking a good look at the box, its immediate surroundings and into the distance

Yes . This is exactly it, you will see the universe like you have never seen it before ^^

Such a beautiful, insane, impossible place..

No expectations, no disappointments.

Be careful about the dose first time a did shrooms i did 2.5 and it was cool but not mindblowing. the second time I took like 1.9 and lost reality for a night, I forgot who, what, and where I was and became one with a puffy red couch over the course of a few hours. A bad trip is not possible with shrooms in my opinion, but neither is a really good time. I always come out of a trip about neutral, I don't have a bad time but other then like the first hour coming up I never feel any sense of euphoria or amusement.

psychedelics aren't my thing though so my opinion is pretty slanted, I think drugs should make you feel good nothing more, nothing less. Except of course MDMA which is the key to self actualization and a full understanding of the range and depth of human emotion. God damn do I love MDMA, you should buy some ecstasy instead of shrooms I guarantee you'll have a fuck of a lot more fun

IMO shrooms are more useful in general for the exploration of self, which is what the OP is looking for, not to mention the fact that you rarely get pure pills, and who the fuck knows whats in there or how much MDMA you're getting?

And why is your name "trippy"?

I really had no idea what to expect on mushrooms, i was a little anxious as i am with trying any new drug but mushrooms are easy to handle at 3.5g doses. just be ready for a roller coaster ride and enlightening.
My first mushroom trip was excellent: one of my friends and I each ate an eighth of beautiful gold caps that had some decent bluing on the stems.
We ingested on a cheese burger and drank some orange juice and ten minutes later i was feeling the best I ever had...
Needless to say the day went amazing, we went to the beach tripped a little there, then the fun began when we went back to my friends house, we proceeded to trip balls and watch the ceiling move for a little then spent the rest of the day in a park smoking bowls and cigs.
The most interesting thing was looking directly at the sand in the park and seeing the coarse grains moving every which way and coming up and out of their little triangular pyramid anthills, all of the while the other sand grains moving in slow patterns either going into the pattern holes or coming out of them.

I had eaten a shitload of mescaline, a few doses of LSD, and done 2c-B twice before I did mushrooms. I ate two grams of aborts I've never had visuals like that, the world pulsated and glowed with patterns and bands of heiroglyphics, information felt like it was being downloaded into my head, and I lost track of who and where I was. Quite surprising, I was expecting some morphing and an altered headspace. It was rather amazing.

The one thing I wasn't expecting was how intoxicating they are. On both mescaline and LSD, both of which I've done comparatively higher doses of, I can handle myself fairly well. Even if I check out for a time, when I come back I can always manage to speak, and usually act straight. There was no way in hell I could've pulled that off on mushrooms, although I suspect most people would have just thought I was really stoned.

I'd really like to do them again, but I can never find them.

And why is your name "trippy"?

well now I'm even more glad I typed you that mini essay now that I saw this

You never know how potent it will be at first.
So take 2gs on yr first try and use that to measure all future trips of that batch.

My first time I did a half eighth of grinded mushrooms in an empty house. My friend was with me but he had shroomed a few nights prior, so he didn't do it again.

I don't know if it's just me, maybe I'm sensitive to psychodellics or something, but I feel a difference in reality moments after indulgence. About an hour into it is when the foreplay ends and the divinity begins. I can't really tell you what happened or the order it happened in, but this is the general idea.

Throat vibrations with Deep motherfukcin Purple
Examine the shadows
I wandered to the bathroom, turned off the lights, pulled out my wang and questioned the darkness.
Throat vibrations.
Look at the dollar bill
friend drove me around while listening to pink floyd.
Met other friend who works at albertsons
Groshery stores sure are something else, I'd recommend avoiding them. But they sure are interesting (as is everything else).
Watched some star trek, everything was all wavy.
Talked on a cell phone for a little bit (try to avoid this, very anoying)
Learned about what it is I should be learning.

That is all I can remember.

Did shrooms for the first time two weeks ago.

ate an eighth (dried) with some lemonade. tasted like regular mushrooms. sat down at my computer and about 30-45min after eating, I started to feel in a good mood, and just had an overall pleasant feeling. at about 1 hour to hour and a half I was tripping balls. My emotions were changing rapidly and they were intense. Earlier that day I had finished reading a book and the characters must have been still in my mind because I started to feel and experience thoughts like I was the characters in the book. My brain racing with thoughts. I walked to the bathroom, felt like I was drunk. Everything was breathing.(http://tinyurl.com/4tfpgo go here to understand better) My limbs didn't respond right and everything was rigid and stiff, jaw clenching, and such.

Overall good. Just make sure you're in a comfortable environment and it will promote a good trip.

4g of indoor grown, insanely clean shrooms my first time.

I basically became one with the places in nature I chose as my destiny on my fungus journey. I felt like a fuckin' Aztec warrior or something.

It was incredibly amazing. So many things happened in those 7 hours out in the woods.

my 1st trip was 2g..

I went in not knowing what to expect, i popped a xanax and took them.

it was crazy. i felt crazy.

the first (and only) time i shroomed was awesome. i hadnt really thought much about doing it, but one day i was at my buddy's house and he asked if i wanted to do them. i was having a shitty day so i said fuck it.

it was one of the best experiences of my life. everything was peaceful. i saw numbers and words. it was kinda weird. everything felt really cool. we got on the bus and it was like the knight bus in harry potter. everthing was bouncing around and peoples faces were all funny looking.

the one thing ill never forget is when it first kicked in we were outside and this dude walks up and i thought he was somebody i know (he wasnt). anyways, i told him i was on shrooms and he told us about the first time he did it. then i asked what his name was and he said "Tchlah." to this day i have no idea what his real name was or who the fuck he was

I liek shromz

Lesson from my own life:
If you're already taking anti-anxiety meds like benzos, or have recently binged out on them, then don't go cold turkey on those right before tripping shrooms.
Once I was coming down of a long benzo binge and at the same time the shrooms started kicking in.... EXTREME anxiety ensued, insanity followed soon after.

Other than that, I haven't had much terrible experience from shrooms. GO FOR IT.

I took a tiny bit under an eighth, maybe 3 grams, and I loved it. My parents were away on vacation and I was home alone with three friends, two guys and a girl. We all sat around a table and consumed our share dry. It definitely took a while to set in for me, first feeling a bit like a vic buzz, then high, then what one would call "tripping". I got no hallucinations, but what I did get was lots of nice flows and fractals and patterns. It was really nice out, so I got a blanket and we all went and laid out on my lawn in the sun. This was extremely enjoyable, I would look at the clouds in the sky and I would see almost tribal-like patterns in the shadows of the clouds, and I would see the path that the clouds would take as they moved in the wind. Then I looked at the grass next to me, and I just remember appreciating the sheer number of blades of grass and how vivid the light was, creating shadows on each blade. I also did the obligatory "wave your hand in front of your face and watch the trail" move too. Then one of my friends found a stick, and at that moment whomever had possession of the stick had power. After the stick, two of my friends climbed a large boulder that I have in my backyard, which they seemed to love. A few hours in we went onto my porch where we started smoking a few bowls while enjoying the outdoors. Then the girl started freaking out so we left her inside (lol).

Overall I really enjoyed it. Go into it comfortably with a good mindset, and especially be comfortable at the place you are tripping.

swim did 2 grams of very strong stuff i expected to feel stoned and trippy kinda like salvia. Instead i had a life-changing experience based on relationships with everyone i know. Everything in my life became clear, something became stark and harsh but in general reality became clearer. I immediately wanted to get my life in order and talk with all my friends and family. Crazy experience, amazing and incredible insight.

when i first took them i was a little afraid of the outcome....
like something horrible would happen....
**the night panned out in a long awkward experience with a sorority house making pancakes for us....and this fella following me home..and entering my house...and me having to tell my mom to kick him out....
mind you i was about 16.....soooooooo...although it was insane and so were the visuals...it didn't stop me from doing them again.....

but then you get those good experiences...
like listening to jimi hendrix and looking and seeing him in the walls playing in a concert..JUST FOR YOU. ...
or how the grass turns into a villiage of mutant midget people...and you try and step all over them...
im telling you! GO FOR IT.

I expected to just 'fall out of consciousness and go on a trip in my mind'. So I laid down in a pitch-black room, music playing quietly, a drink next to me with a bit to eat and let it take over. Then a fucking possum started going mental in my roof and I freaked the fuck out and thought I'd gone insane.

How ever my first experience has stemmed my love for 'mental trips', sensory deprivation, letting your mind take over, rip you a new hole and fuck it with a 12" dildo.

You might as well make your first shroom trip memorable and eat the full 7g's.
