Gyromania: You Guys Ever Try Psilocybin Mushrooms?

Gyromania 08.24.21	Go nuts
FabiusPictor202 08.24.21	no im not a beatnik
twlight 08.24.21	Would suggest about a gram. Listen to your favorite new album and relax. Have plenty of water
twlight 08.24.21	Tool hits a bit different on mushies :)
Gyromania 08.24.21	Took 0.6 grams hours ago and feel nothing. Figured there'd at least be something.
Sharenge 08.24.21	haven't done in over a decade, but unless it's some very potent stuff I think you generally gonna need a bit more than that also I believe it's very easy to build a tolerance to them so if you'd already tripped in the recent past, that definitely wouldn't be enough
TheSonomaDude 08.24.21	LSD was definitely my preference, but psychedelics were a huge part of my life for about a year. Never had any bad times on shrooms but also never went crazy with them. The first time I ever did them, we walked to the early morning Florida beach just as they kicked in and I felt like I was in a PS1 game staring at a giant glowing disco ball. Pretty awesome stuff
Sharenge 08.24.21	is this thread bait - I seem to remember some people vehemently railing against them in a thread some time ago
Gyromania 08.24.21	Nice! Walking when it's quiet out (the wee small hours of the morning) seems like a great way to experience them. LSD scares me a little, but I've heard people generally feel happier and less stressed on that than on shrooms
Gyromania 08.24.21	Sherange: I just took 0.2 a week ago to try microdosing, and waited until tonight to try 0.6. Pretty underwhelmed tbh. I'm trying to ease into it because I don't want to totally blast off (I'm prone to anxiety), but I at least want to feel something. Now it seems like I'll have to wait another 5 days or so before attempting an even larger dose. I'm thinking of just trying a gram but worried it might bite me in the ass lol And no idea about the thread you're talking about
TheSonomaDude 08.24.21	LSD has given me some of the most euphoric feelings of peace and contentment I've ever felt, but it takes one bad trip to never want to do it again. The most important thing to do is ensure you're in a place you feel comfortable, happy, relaxed, and stress-free. Don't do shrooms with the crazy dude who sketches you out, or a place that makes you feel uncomfortable. Also don't take em in a bad mood or if you have alot of heavy stuff on your mind.
twlight 08.24.21	Lsd is definitely better than shroomies. For shrooms take about 3 grams and walk around in nature while listening to an album you like
Sharenge 08.24.21	unless you're a little guy, even a gram is a pretty light amount I think, but if you give it a week or so, I feel like it should at least be enough to guarantee you feel/experience something
Yep321 08.24.21	Check out this guys youtube page. Psyched Substance https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCn8V3KNSgDr1Dai77_y8JrQ
Gyromania 08.24.21	Should I take like 0.6 or 0.8 more rn? Is it possible this would be delayed? Like, it's been over 3 hours
onionbubs 08.24.21	need to try shrooms done lsd 9 times tho and they were all a blast. should be trying them next winter tho. i get in the trip mindset pretty easily tho since i loooove listening to music on it and at this point i really only do it in nature which is breathtaking on it
twlight 08.24.21	"LSD has given me some of the most euphoric feelings of peace and contentment I've ever felt" Same dude, time and place. Lsd can be very soothing Wrong time and place, lsd is a nightmare. I've been on both sides
Gyromania 08.24.21	How much of a nightmare are we talkin'?
beefshoes 08.24.21	Like a lot of things, your body weight is indicative of the amount that you'd need for a proper trip. There are tons of guides out there that can help you tailor your experience according to what you're looking for as far as dosage goes. And it's exactly like what Sonoma just said above. Just make sure that you're doing them in as comfortable of an environment as possible, with as good of a mindset as possible. Like edibles, they can hit you out of nowhere like a train, and if you're not prepared for it, it can enduce some anxiety. Wishing you a great experience regardless! I haven't had a proper experience with them in many years, but I was microdosing for about 6 months on and off a few years ago (to help with crippling anxiety), and they helped a ton.
twlight 08.24.21	"0.6 or 0.8 more rn" um, well take all that you have right now if you're in a good space with water and music
Gyromania 08.24.21	I'm in my house and it's 1:30 am. The previous 0.6 just made me kind of tired and feeling slightly high (like if I smoked a bowl of weed). Would taking the other 0.8g add to the feeling, or would it not do much for me at this point? Close to 3.5hrs after original dose
twlight 08.24.21	"How much of a nightmare are we talkin'?" Not too bad, just an ex girlfriend that I already didn't trust to be a good person. I remember her sticking out her tounge to me on a Sunday night. I was not prepared. Ended up being the worst trip. Got some lsd about a year later and it was the most amazing experience ever. Time, place and mindset help with trips
Sharenge 08.24.21	I think your best bet would be to have patience, let a period of time pass (Autumn is coming up =D ) and then do somewhere between a gram and half an eighth next time... maybe split an eighth with someone and yeah agree with what was already said and agreed upon - environment and frame of mind are important things to keep in mind and I'd probably also perhaps recommend not being alone but being with someone or people who you like and trust and are comfortable around... and I also recommend nature/outdoors
twlight 08.24.21	Never had a "bad" trip on shrooms. Would highly recommend laying down and looking and the morning sky
zakalwe 08.24.21	Wankers
Gyromania 08.24.21	Not your crowd, zak?
Gyromania 08.24.21	Basically what I want to know rn is: will taking this remaining 0.8 (or 0.6 icr) 3.5 hrs later add to it, or is it too late? I've heard the body develops a tolerance to these things FAST
twlight 08.24.21	All good. Look up at the sky and see that geometry
Sharenge 08.24.21	well be prepared for the scenario that if it actually does induce you to trip, you may likely be up the rest of the night
twlight 08.24.21	.8 grams? Just eat it all. Put on your fav record and eat it. No use saving .8
beefshoes 08.24.21	You might as well just take it. Just prepare to stay up for awhile to properly enjoy it.
quetzal 08.24.21	yeah i have, it's something alright. not something i want to do more than once every few years, maybe once a decade.
Sharenge 08.24.21	fuck it, take it and go out for the sunrise - it'll be great
twlight 08.24.21	4 is a total jam. Just down those shrooms if you're in a safe good place, listen to music
Gyromania 08.24.21	Aight I'll take the extra 0.8 I have. Hoping for a fun experience. You guys think it'll stack with the 0.6 I took earlier tho? I feel like that's prob i unlikely but would be cool
twlight 08.24.21	Nah it probably won't stack. Eat it all now and see. That's the cool thing about shrooms, you're still in control. Put on your fave album as you down those shrooms
Colton 08.24.21	listen to Sweet Trip
twlight 08.24.21	Seriously visuals may change your life. Look at the sky
Gyromania 08.24.21	Boom. 0.8 more down the hatch. Actually fucking hard to swallow all of that in one go lol (got them in pill form). Kind of hoping I do feel something good from this. I'm mentally prepared
Gyromania 08.24.21	Yeah I hope I can get some visuals out of this. Colton: that's a good idea!
TheSonomaDude 08.24.21	You'll feel some stuff but it wont be anything too crazy. Pretty mellow hours await my good friend
Colton 08.24.21	sometimes I take just 0.3g and if I mix it with some weed I feel it pretty strongly sometimes
twlight 08.24.21	Gyro, go outside and look at the sky. You'll see that geometry
twlight 08.24.21	Colton with the FACTS
Storm In A Teacup 08.24.21	Pill form? I would eat 3 grams typically.
twlight 08.24.21	Let us know what you feel bro, no rush enjoy the trip and look at the sky :)
Gyromania 08.24.21	3 grams!? damn, that seems insane to me
Gyromania 08.24.21	only thing is, it's 2am here so there's not much to see if i look up at the sky
beefshoes 08.24.21	The patterns on your floor, walls, and furniture will more than suffice. I dropped acid once, and spent a solid hour just staring at my fridge, blown away by the shapes of the patterns. lol
Sharenge 08.24.21	go out for dawn when the birbs chirpin'
Gyromania 08.24.21	lmao, i'm getting that a bit right now with rly mundane things too, like my cupboards. never rly noticed the patterns within before. i see them every day but for some reason they rly stand out to me rn
MrSirLordGentleman 08.24.21	they're better than acid because you know what it is that is getting into your system
Gyromania 08.24.21	might try some weed to intensify the experience. good idea? bad idea?
Gyromania 08.24.21	MSLG: yeah, like acid is so easy to fuck up and take too much of from what i hear, and you never know exactly wtf you're getting, unlike shrooms. that's the main reason i haven't tried it yet.
twlight 08.24.21	Weed always a good idea. Well if you're not feeling the trip no use to expand it Give yourself a half hour
TheSonomaDude 08.24.21	Acid is alot easier for me to comprehend, as you can measure it in tabs. Most dudes just eat random amounts of shrooms like chips until they hit. That’s how are used to do it lol, which I do not recommend
combustion07 08.24.21	Used to be my favorite drug. 3 grams was my typical dose. A few times I took a quarter/a little over. Once was nice the other was bad but at the point of the bad one anytime I'd eat shrooms I'd just feel like I didn't belong where I was at so I took a break on them for a few years
Gyromania 08.24.21	weed makes this crazy. lowkey regret
twlight 08.24.21	You good man?
Gyromania 08.24.21	Yeah, rly nutty experience. Very enjoyable overall
twlight 08.24.21	Nice. Jam some tunes you like
Gyromania 08.24.21	Listened to a lot of shpongle
twlight 08.24.21	Fuck yeah. Check umphrys McGee as well. Good day sir 😃
Josh D. 08.24.21	I need to do them because of all the talk and studies related to relief of anxiety and related afflictions. I need that.
YoYoMancuso 08.24.21	you guys ever try Tostitos “Hint of Lime” chips?
Josh D. 08.24.21	Gross.
WeepingBanana 08.24.21	I feel a lot more stable on mushrooms than acid but then again I’m usually not trying to get my shit rocked I just wanna feel happier for a few hours. I can’t remember exactly how much I did last time but I think like 1.6 grams or so and it was perfect. I don’t do em a lot tho so idk
Storm In A Teacup 08.24.21	My friend usually takes 5 or 6 grams of the highest quality. Took 9 grams and went to movie theater. Had to have 4 people carry him out by each limb in the middle of the movie lol
Storm In A Teacup 08.24.21	I would say 3 grams is the perfect dose for the average. You HAVE to take it all at once. Micro dosing doesnt really work if you are trying to have an experience. Micro dosing is really only suitable for combatting depression and avoidinh takiny depression pills that mess you up worse.
Storm In A Teacup 08.24.21	You should be able to take 3 grams at once and that helps depression for 4 to 6 months.
Storm In A Teacup 08.24.21	Idk what this pill form of mushrooms is. Always have eatin the real deal
Storm In A Teacup 08.24.21	Best thing is put it on pizza or make a sandwich
WeepingBanana 08.24.21	Taking a lot of shrooms at once is cringe and quite possibly even try-hard
Trebor. 08.24.21	I wish this shit was legal so I could just pick up some shrooms at target
Storm In A Teacup 08.24.21	@weeping he is a legit badass mma fighter and also very humble giving person so i wouldn't say try hard, just overly optimistic about getting fucked up
WeepingBanana 08.24.21	Even worse than I imagined
YoYoMancuso 08.24.21	@WeepingBanana might I suggest Tostitos “Hint of Lime” chips as an alternative?
Colton 08.24.21	“Micro dosing doesn’t really work if you are trying to have an experience” I disagree
Lord(e)Po)))ts 08.24.21	"sometimes I take just 0.3g and if I mix it with some weed I feel it pretty strongly sometimes" A microdose is a full dose for a micro man
Colton 08.24.21	what type of dose were you on when you tattooed a wedding ring on your finger and 10+ random crooked lines on your upper arm?
Avagantamos 08.24.21	best mushrooms I ever tried were Penis Envy. at lest 3.5g for me, more with less potent strains
chemicalmarriage 08.24.21	Some of you acting like you're McKenna itt
Storm In A Teacup 08.24.21	Well yeah mushrooms are the future.
AnimalsAsSummit 08.24.21	years ago I used to delve often. Wouldn’t be opposed to trying again.
Gyromania 08.24.21	Had a fantastic experience, excited to try it again
chemicalmarriage 08.24.21	"A microdose is a full dose for a micro man" Fucking lol
Colton 08.24.21	I tower over Pots
Relinquished 08.24.21	yea once he picks you up
Colton 08.24.21	no joke, guy has the most bizarre tattoos I have ever seen in my life
Colton 08.24.21	wish you guys could see the lines on his arm lmao
Sharenge 08.24.21	"Hint of Lime" Tostitos are yum
demigod! 08.24.21	i love shrooms but man fuck the nausea, last time i was too freaked out to do a large dose bc even just a gram and half or so had me feeling like my stomach was trying to cannibalize itself and that was not pleasant ngl
YoYoMancuso 08.24.21	Amen Sharenge also hol up DEMIGOD sighting?
demigod! 08.24.21	that's demigod! to you!
onionbubs 08.24.21	damn if the nausea is that bad i might stick to lsd lol still most likely gonna try these one day since everyone reacts differently to this shit but that sounds way less enjoyable if its happening the whole time
YoYoMancuso 08.24.21	real ones remember demigodnumbers before demigodexclamationpoint entered the chat
Colton 08.24.21	shrooms usually make me feel pretty uncomfortable for a while but you just gotta push through it to get to the good part
po0ty 08.24.21	if you want to avoid most of the nauseau i would suggest making a tea most i've ever done was 5g and somewhere along the line i cried my face off listening to Hurry Up We're Dreaming by M83. was very enjoyable still and mostly just felt like a heavy weed body high with intensified colors.
Egarran 08.24.21	Love 'em. Made me a better person. I know it's hard to believe, but I was wayyy more obnoxious before shrooms.
chemicalmarriage 08.24.21	Please take more
anode 08.24.21	As far as mixing weed, I sometimes get a bit depressedish when I smoke week so I only add it slowly once I’ve already started tripping. Definitely enhances things but it’s really fucked with my head before when tripping. Also I’ve had better experiences with lsd personally but I think thats cause I had one really fucked up trip on 4 gs of shrooms. my bro passed out and it was all downhill from there lol I think that woulda fucked with me no matter what though
Egarran 08.24.21	>Please take more I would, but they're so hard to get around here. So you're stuck with this, sorry.
onionbubs 08.24.21	idk about shrooms but weed on lsd just kinda intensifies the tripping for a bit honestly doesnt really feel like weed
porcupinetheater 08.24.21	yeah i try to save smoking for the come down to boost the trip back up a little bit, when it's peaking prefer to just ride a la carte
Avagantamos 08.24.21	if you like tripping on shrooms but don't like eating them, just try 4-aco-dmt. the effects are pretty much identical. psilocybin is metabolized into psilocin (4-ho-dmt) which is actually active in the brain, and it's theorized that the same happens with 4-aco-dmt
DavidYowi 08.24.21	I love them but I have certainly been reckless with them. Like when I first got an ounce of shrooms I took like 2-3 grams every 1-2 weeks. I blew through 2 ounces in like 5 months. I was trying to out-trip my last trip each time and it did not go well, also trying to over plan shroom trips really made these trips really bothersome. But I have had some of the most euphoric feeling moments in my life while on shrooms. This sense of being at ease with your body and mind, feeling like your soul has been cleansed for the moment. Now when I was doing them 1-2 weeks that cleansing feeling started to subside, so it's best to space them out. I would argue that doing shrooms while you have a lot of heavy stuff on your mind can actually be positive, sure it leads to some scary trips but you come out of it feeling much better about the situation before hand. Music also helps guide the mood of the trip I find. An example of this was when I when I did shrooms with a friend to celebrate my birthday. Now let me start this story by stating that this was right in the middle of my shroom binge, so I had no idea how to cultivate a comfortable environment for my friend who is very inexperienced with shrooms. We wanted to meet up because our friend group was going through a rough patch, so already he is not in a good state of mind. After we took the shrooms, I decided that we should watch Korn’s Woodstock 99 live set, as it was the 21st anniversary of the concert. I also talked to him about all the fucked up stuff that happened at W99. Understandably he had a bad trip, but when he calmed down he walked right into the room I was in and he had the biggest smile on his face. We then talked for the rest of the trip and I had never seen him this unafraid of being open and intimate before. I truly feel that we had grown closer as friends that night.
DavidYowi 08.24.21	Other fun trips include: . Listening to Hum’s Inlet and having deep gender feelings. . Going night swimming with a playlist titled “Nightswimming” which included songs like New Radical’s “You Get What You Give”, Rush’s “Different Strings”, ELO’s “Strange Magic”, Echo & the Bunnymen’s “Ocean Rain”, and, of course, R.E.M.’s “Nightswimming” . I’ve definitely told this story before on here but the first time I listened to Pyrrhon’s Abscess Time was when I was fucked up on shrooms. One of the most terrifying moments I’ve ever had. Funny thing was that I watched one of their concerts on YT that was released in 2019 before I listened to the album. Didn’t expect anything off the new album to be played, turns out they played the title track at that concert and it blew my damn mind. I remember trying to finish the shroom tea I had left over but it was cold and I threw it back up. Absolute nightmare scenario, loved it. Had a great time.
DavidYowi 08.24.21	btw if you want to take shrooms but hate the taste I recommend making the shrooms into a tea. Bit longer to make than just eating them but it goes down much easier and the shrooms kick in a lot sooner.
WatchItExplode 08.24.21	Watching the wall on shrooms sorted out most of my mother issues. Another trip help me accept fatherhood. Another time I was convinced I was in purgatory all my friends faces were melting and then I shed my skin like a snake. And it's called set and setting people.
Gyromania 08.25.21	Set and setting are absolutely important. I did it alone in my living room with the lights dimmed and a long playlist involving mostly Shpongle tracks. It was sublime. Took a walk at one point and noticed trees looking very wavy, despite there being no wind. This was the thing I enjoyed the most - when I got home I noticed even mundane things like my cupboards seemed to stretch horizontally and vertically, and occasionally appear closer and further away from me. Checked out a visual aid as well and it ended up becoming too much for me, but still incredible. I also noticed whenever I'd close my eyes I'd see these weird tangential things, like a box that morphed into a ball and then into a rain droplet and so on. The closed-eye stuff was perhaps the most exciting bit in hindsight.
Gyromania 08.25.21	David: I was actually taking a bath at one point but this became too much for me ngl lol
beefshoes 08.25.21	Glad to see that you had a great time with it!
DavidYowi 08.25.21	"I also noticed whenever I'd close my eyes I'd see these weird tangential things, like a box that morphed into a ball and then into a rain droplet and so on. The closed-eye stuff was perhaps the most exciting bit in hindsight" Yeah whenever I close my eyes during a trip it feels like I'm falling into these shapes
Gyromania 08.25.21	This list should be featured tbh
TheSonomaDude 08.26.21	The first time I did shrooms I remember laying on the couch in my friends living room, and a bunch of early 3-D PS1 looking heads were flying at me. Wasnt scared but it was definitely odd. It can be intense but it doesn’t last forever. The other side will bring you tons of emotions and experiences. You feelin okay?
Egarran 08.27.21	I saw Fantastic Fungi on Netflix on the general awesomeness of mushrooms. I thought they would skirt around its psychedelic qualities, but eventually that became the central point. It was almost a religious advertisement, but then again it is an American doc.
