Amanita time

I had an ounce of amanitas muscaria that i had bought from iamshaman like probably two months ago. They had been sitting in my room until last night, when i decided to try them out. The ounce i had was actually a lot more than an ounce, so three friends and i each at 8 grams last night. For a couple of hours we felt a strange buzz that felt like we were about to suddenly start coming up. A couple hours pass so a few of us eat like 3.5 more grams. An hour later we feel a really small trip coming on, just a few slight effects. This recent eating just boosted the trip. Overall it was just like a really strong high, a couple trip effects were present such as not being able to sleep, some strange and rapid thoughts, and a blurry and strange vision at times. I was dissapointed with the experience though. I guess my batch of mushrooms werent very potent or maybe I had them for too long and they lost a lot of potency. Does anyone have any experience with amanitas?

you know nothing about shrooms

amanitas active alkaloids are different from normal mushrooms

usually no effects are observed eccept if you eat 28 grams or more...

then, THEN thte experience get's intense

probably a bit intense for you

I didnt go into this thinking these were magic mushrooms.
This was my first amanita trip, i'm not going to eat an ounce and have a way too intense trip. I've been under the impression that you can have a light trip anywhere around 6 grams and easily have an intense trip anywhere above 10 grams or so. What did i say to anger you? or what was it i said that shows my mushroom ignorance? I've experience a good number and variety of trips, i'd say i have a pretty fair amount of experience with shrooms and other psychedelics.

lol, sorry for coming across a little hostile. i just assumed you were another kid eating whatever however to get high without researching

you seem to know your stuff, atleast enough to know that amanitas arent your average mushroom

at a full dose you fall into a trance

its cool dude, yeah i know what you mean with kids eating whatever is around.

also amanitas are very toxic, so be careful how much you eat

my friend tried those and god auditory hallucinations and a cold sweat.. he didnt like them

Aren't you supposed to take a nap after eating amanitas? I recall reading somewhere that tripping on them is difficult unless you sleep.

i`ve smoked a muscaria joint also but I had no effect at all
so I say don't do that... its pretty much a waste.. most of the alkaloids get burned during the smoking anyways for as far as I know
eating muscaria I say try it in a safe dose first ofcorse
i`m planning on taking them next year when they grow in the wild here in my garden again

I tried 15 grams once and fell asleep
notta
so next time I will do like 30
dont expect a "trip" from Amanitas they are more spiritual
do expect to visit the "heavens"
also you will see your whole life flash before your eyes
you will get time compression where 10 minutes could seem like 10 hours

theres 3 levels of effects with the third and highest level being the best
