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

I wish my resume looked that good.

[–] LongboardingLad@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

Be the turtle rancher you wish to see in the world, friend. Or something like that

[–] Anivia 8 points 2 months ago (1 children)

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

So much this. You can’t undo taking too much, and you can have a real bad time for hours.

[–] LongboardingLad@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

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.

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.

[–] krashmo@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago

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

The sweating one. I once thought I pissed my jeans, but had instead dumped a gallon of two of sweat out of my whole body, while I sat on the bathroom floor counting small tiles.

Good to grow up since then.

[–] BruceTwarzen@lemm.ee 6 points 2 months ago

I was once tripping hard at a party, and they had a ceiling with some tiles with holes in them. So obviously i started counting them. I soon realised that it's less of a counting thing and more of a math problem. I took some toilet paper and started scribbling down numbers. I remember as soon as i wrote all the numbers down, i didn't really remember where the numbers even came from and why they are so important to me. When i had the final result, i wrote it on my arm and flushed down the toilet paper. Every few minutes i took a look at my arm and repeated the number in my mind.

At some point the police knocked on the door, because of a noise complaint. I thought it's because they wanted the numbers and went to the toilet to scrub it off. And was so relieved that they are gone. Then i got mad at myself because i forgot tye numbers. I sat down at my place on the sofa, looked up and saw the holes and remembered, and had to laugh out loud.

[–] Noodle07@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago (2 children)

How many tiles did you count though?

[–] tpihkal@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

Or rather how many frac-tiles?

[–] GBU_28@lemm.ee 4 points 2 months ago

I don't think I was privy to the result lol

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Why did you leave out the part where you cry for like four hours straight?

[–] NikkiDimes@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Not straight. More like crying, followed by maniacal laughter, followed by more crying

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

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."

[–] dumbass@leminal.space 7 points 2 months ago

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.

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

[–] Mammothmothman@lemmy.ca 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

This starter pack definitely needs a "trapped inside the mirror for hours".

[–] BruceTwarzen@lemm.ee 4 points 2 months ago

The mirror dimension is the main reason i'm looking forward to mushrooms

[–] BluesF@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

I would honestly say avoid looking in the mirror when you're having a GOOD trip. You'll be trapped! Trapped I say!

[–] Mothra@mander.xyz 5 points 2 months ago

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?

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

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.

[–] MutilationWave@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)

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.

[–] ChocoboRocket@lemmy.world 14 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

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.

[–] MutilationWave@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

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.

[–] LucasWaffyWaf@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago (3 children)

Man, I gotta find out how to get ahold of some of that stuff.

[–] Manifish_Destiny@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Go on reddit and look at the uncle bens subreddit. That'll learn ya.

Where are you located? In Canada, there are gray market options in major cities (i.e. physical storefronts) and online.

[–] BluesF@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Depending on where you live you can just go pick them from the ground. Obviously take care and make sure you can ID correctly... But it costs only time.

[–] explodicle@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Beer brings down the trip if you get scared.

[–] mayo@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

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.

[–] yokonzo@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

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
