This May Sound stupid, but its true: Make a trip!

Xiansi you post is so riddled with errors i don't know where to start. I'm not going to comment on the orange peel/peanut portion, i feel that was covered by some of my previous posts. Psilocin does mimic serotonin and bind to the same receptors in the brain as you stated, but it does not deplete the natural serotonin in the bran like other drugs, MDMA is a great example. So after tripping on mushrooms you don't have less serotonin.

Moving on...anti-depressants don't "mimic" serotonin at all. The most common type SSRI's are Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors. That means they work by preventing the brains reabsorption of serotonin thus increasing its availability. Because if this it takes a while to feel the effects of ssri's, usually 4-6 weeks. It not simply a serotonin pill that makes you happy. Finally "zanax" which is spelled Xanax btw is not an anti-depressent but an anti-anxiety drug. It belongs to a group of chemicals known as Benzodiazepines. The chemical in Xanax is alprazolam just in case you wanted to know. All Benzodiazepines work by increasing the production of GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid) which is responsible for slowing down the transmission of nerve signals to the brain giving you that relaxed feeling.

Alright this should clear some things up for the kiddies,

I miss the good old days where nullific would reply to every crazy drug thread with his fountain of knowledge. Ahh the days *sheds a tear*

Anyway, on topic. What ever happened to good old fashoned drug taking. IF you havent got a good drug drink a crate of beer or eat a load of nutmeg and sleep for several days.

next you will be talking bout getting high off bannanas, jese dont you people realsie that the jolly roger was bullshitting you?

Well I guess I'll have to have a talk with my college professor then for teaching me the wrong information.... eh..

Please do.

Yeah man, that shit does work. A buddy of mine did it in jail and he tripped balls, he was licking the sink and the bedpost becuz he thought it contained blood and he was a vampire. You can actually fuck urself up on that tho (hemorages, eats at stomache, liver, and kidney. And I heard like 1/10 times u try and get the mold it is actually the right mold.

Okay okay... lets me stop laughing first
1st: Shpongled... your awesome haha
2nd: Your all idiots, ectasy is risky shit now your all into eating random mold you try and grow on orange peels, hey heres an idea stick your finger up you ass, lick it and see if that makes you trip
3rd: Not that i'm gonna pretend that I know what I'm talking about (and Shpongled go ahead and discredit what I'm saying if I'm mistaken) but mold if a VERY diverse organism meaning that there are MANY diverent kinds tons of which may be toxic. According to my understanding pores of many types of mold (TOXIC AND NON-TOXIX) are found in the air and that you have just as good chance of getting toxic as non-toxic. And my guess is that you just think your tripping because your body is dieing and the sensation is not something your used to therefor you think your tripping (much like people who mistakingly eat the wrong type of mushroom)
4th: Mold has been a very abundant substance for millions of years and you would think that when early homosapiens (or ever earlier beings) were starving to death and were injesting anything they could to attempt to stay alive that at some point they would have tried injesting mold therefore if even a slightly pleasurable experience came from this then this would have become a commonly practiced and well recorded ritual (after all how do you think cannabis and mushrooms were discovered in the first place)

Thank you for the post. I never said that this was very safe, and am aware it is impossible for newbs to tell between molds. As I have said before, I do not recommend trying this. I just wanted to point an interesting fact out.

i doubt the validity of that story, i've never heard of anyone thinking they were a vampire off of something not mentionied on erowid

but if it is true, then hell yeah
