    Small story. I’ve done more than my fair share of shrooms in my day. My guy stopped growing them and raised turtles instead, but that’s not the point. I found a new person to acquire them from and being an “expert” psychonaut, I took about the same amount as always(4g) expecting a pretty moderate trip. Turns out the new guy knows how to grow some spicy Bois and I couldn’t handle 4g of them. I’m not advocating for drug use, but if you plan on taking shrooms, remember that every bag is different and I am a huge proponent of taking a micro dose of any new batch before going for a macro dose. Dip your toes in before diving head first Anyway, this meme is literally me. Gave me a giggle

      That’s why I still prefer LSD over shrooms, even though I hate that the trip lasts twice as long. With LSD you always know how much you are taking

        Most of the time! DrugsData now shows the amounts in tested samples and a dose can vary by quite a lot! In my life experience though, a dose usually just feels like a dose. I definitely have tried some that blew me away in just one dose though hahaha

          Completely fair! It’s been five years for me… I haven’t even eaten my teachers (I intend to soon!)

        I tried 1g of Makilla Gorilla and 1g of Golden Teacher (months apart) and the gorilla felt 3x stronger at least. I never knew that before, it’s much better now that we can buy them in stores.

          Yeah! I only learned that when I grew some teachers. A mate of mine has some different types and knows a lot more about their strengths.

    Not exactly the same but I’ve seen someone consume an entire pyramid of gel tabs. They ended up naked with jumping cactus on their balls. An RN at the rave picked it out and we got him to his car. He then jumped on the roof of his car until the cabin was concave, somehow got his keys and just plowed through the desert, cacti and all. No idea what ended up happening to him.

      He completed his transformation and became one with the desert in the form of a new type of semi-sentient cactus.

        These days, it’s zero crying for me, but that first time, I had a loooot to work through. And I was in an unfamiliar place/country. And my friends didn’t take theirs and went to sleep, leaving me awake by myself. And then I took my friend’s dose, too, because it “wasn’t doing anything.”

    Puking absolutely makes it better. It doesn’t get the psilocybin out of your system, but at least the nausea will be gone. You always feel better immediately after puking.

    Also, avoid looking into the bathroom mirror when you are having a bad trip

    i brought a big bag of ground magic mushroom powder with the intent on selling enough to get my money back.

    I sold 5 little pill capsules full of it and ate the rest. God I miss that 2 weeks.

    I wish they did more for me than just make me feel super drunk. Did them twice and I didn’t feel closer to nature, didn’t trip balls, didn’t even feel good. I just felt like I drank an entire bottle of Jim Beam; but was left with a slightly more pleasant taste in my mouth.

      If you’re on any mental health medication they can severely blunt the effect. Also if you’re eating less than an eighth you won’t really trip. A quarter is better.

        Completely depends on the shrooms. Like 100%.

        I recommend 1 gram increments every hour if you’ve never tried the bag before. Once you know how strong they are, you’ll know how much you need for the trip you want.

        I’ve taken 3.5 grams and been fully in control with minimal visual and the biggest experience was mild time dilation.

        I’ve taken 2 grams and been unable to use my phone because the screen looks bottomless for several hours, and I’m barely keeping whole thoughts processing.

        Blindly advising someone you don’t know to munch 7 grams of random shrooms is a terrible idea. You are correct that anxiety meds can blunt shrooms, but even then 7g is a massive dose.

          That’s fair. I should know better really. I took a quarter a few months ago and it was mid tier trip. Then I split 3/8 with a friend a month ago and it was nuts.

    I don’t understand, everything except the first paragraph (which doesn’t apply to me) is exactly why I enjoy mushrooms

    Does it mean I’m always doing it at starter level?

    Speak for yourself, even when on mushrooms I know that puking just makes me feel immediately better, it’s like a system reset, but I understand it doesn’t work that way for everyone

      Weed helps me too and I stocked up on weed and beer last time, but the nausea/stomach cramps were so bad there was no way I was consuming anything. Fault in my plan…

      Having an appropriate playlist (drums/relaxing) and a sleep mask is very helpful.
