Advice: First time trying shrooms

[james34]

My buddy got some shrooms and we're going to do them together. I want to experience it, but I'm am nervous.

Will this nervousness translate into a bad trip? I'm not like horribly scared, but it's sort of like going on a huge roller coaster.


A few questions. He has an eighth. It's going to probably be between me and him, but a third person may join us too. Is dividng them up among 2 people too much? Is dividng them among 3 too little?

Should I eat before hand?

Would it be best to do them outside or inside?

Any other advice that you have! I understand that these are powerful substances, and I want to be mentally (and otherwise) prepared for the experience.

You should eat at least 1/2 eigth by yourself, preferably an eigth for a good trip.

"He has an eighth."

an eighth of what? 1/8 gram? 1/8 lbs?

[hempnbass]

an eighth of a ounce, most likely.

Nervousness doesn't usually affect the trip, just as long as you don't convince yourself that you just a poison mushrooms and are going to die...

You won't get many visuals with half and eighth, but the body high will be strong.

[james34]

really? not even first time?

[james34]

(its not letting me edit, sorry to be a bitch and double post but...)

Let me note that it's my first time doing anything besides pot (and legal drugs). The visual elements sound most interesting to me. I didn't want to exceed taking 2 grams. half an E is like what? 1.75 grams? I thought that'd be plenty.... hmm.

Well whatever, better to take too little than too much, eh?


And if you havent already figured it out, yeah, 1/8 of an ounce.

[Dextromethorphan]

Ok. I'm getting 3 grams for $10 tomorrow so I'll be right there with you :)

[james34]

heh...


do they taste like shit

[andruejaysin]

heh...


do they taste like shitLets just say it's an aquired taste. You want to take at least half the eigth, all of it would be better. Don't worry, bad trips are far less common than most people think.

[EbelEyes]

heh...

People I know told me they taste like shit, but I actually kind of liked the taste. It tasted "Earth-like", thats the best I can describe it. Drink orange and lemon juice (lemon juice has a high acidic level)

I agree about the "Earthy Taste." Not that bad at all.

I took 2 grams my first time and it was a great trip, but there werent too many visuals. A whole 1/8th is way better. But I would probably stick with the half eigth as it will be near impossible to have a bad trip on it.

[harmonicminor]

I love the taste of shrooms yum yum

[Epic]

I took 2 grams my first time and had an amazing trip.

My second time I took an 8th and had the worst trip ever. I dont remember much of it but from what my friend were telling me I went through some form of an exorcism. I'm just glad I blacked out.

[harmonicminor]

yeah I like to take just threshhold doses nowdays :-)

[james34]

we weighed it, we got 4.0g. (.5 more than an eighth!) we're dividing that among 3 people, which is about 1.33g each. I suppose we'll be good for a first time experience.

A lot of people have told me a gram will do the first time.

[james34]

ALSO.

There's only one cap....the rest is stems. Do caps get you higher then stems or visa versa

[Jeff Spicoli]

go get more james. people who say 1 gram for the first time are being silly, your first time is always the best, so why waste it with only a 1 gram experience? Go get yourself an 8th.

[Cooler Then Jesus]

my first time i ate 24 grams..and went on a walk alone. hmm, fun. on a school night too.

"my first time i ate 24 grams..and went on a walk alone. hmm, fun. on a school night too."

lol

[andruejaysin]

my first time i ate 24 grams..and went on a walk alone. hmm, fun. on a school night too.Dried or fresh?

[james34]

lol they would have to be fresh, wouldnt they?

[Cooler Then Jesus]

it was all the psylocybin or w/e taken from 1 ounce (28.5g) of dried. and put in Chocolates.

[Cooler Then Jesus]

grinded down the 28.5, and it weighed 24, then they were professionally put into little chocolates in the shape of shells, and i was FUCKED up.

[james34]

we cut them up into pieces and put them in a peanut butter sandwich. We ate that over like 45 minutes while playing super smash bros on my gamecube. There was a bit left (still in pieces) We each gulped it in orange juice.

I'm not feeling too different at all. A little. But if I smoked a bong I'd feel more different. I dunno, I'm gonna wait. My buddy puked.

[easton]

dude, u gotta make sure u chew em up real good.

[james34]

Still not tripping, per se. I feel a little different. In my head. It's not psychological. It's not like when I first smoked pot and tried to feel high. It's a bit more real than that.

I'm not seeing anything. I just feel a body high. But if I ripped a bong I'd feel more different. I'm going to listne to Dark side then probably hit the hay.

[james34]

Okay eventually it got more intense than that. The walls never came and sucked me in or anything, but it still got more psychedelic, and more intense. Thoughts rushed through my head like crazy, the body buzz got so intense and was awesome, and I really felt at peace being outside and such. I don't feel like typing a full description, but it was a good time although it wasn't as intense as it could have been.

[Dextromethorphan]

I don't like the taste of them straight at all.
