What is your preferred dose? Do you lemon-tek? What are your favorite things to do while on it? And what is your preferred setting?

I tried both mushrooms and the weaker truffles in amsterdam.
I absolutely loved the very first time, it was the best drug related experience of my life unfortunately the other 4-5 experience were very dissapointing like very light and short.
But that first time, oof like 8 hours experience with my best friend and coordinated allucinations.
The big downside is that they taste like absolute shit epsecially for a guy like me who dislike eating mushrooms and you have to eat an entire box by yourself if you want a strong effect.
I tried mexicans and the philosopher stone type.

Tried it a few times, but that was a veeery long time ago. Like in the mid to late 90ies.
I remember it being fun.

had a few amazing experiences on shrooms. one of them was a "funny" trip where we just kept laughing at every stupid thing lol. at one point i went in the bathroom, closed the door, and let out this crazy high pitch blood scream. i dont know why i did other than it just came to me in a split second and i did it hoping it would be funny, which it was bc of shrooms of course! lol, when i came out of the bathroom my buddy was literally on the ground laughing. we had some dumb fun that nite.
it got to even dumber levels than that, but man was it a blast. at one point we were in this room with all these trippy/colorful lights and black light reflective posters and shit and i was just watching the room melt, that was pretty awesome. it was like, everything i ever wanted from shrooms and saw in the movies and heard about and all that. loved that trip.
my very first shroom trip was god awful though. had the worst time ever.

I'll just eat 'a bunch'.
With friends, in a comfy environment away from strangers. Either in a home or in a secluded spot in nature. Good times. Some nice music on and lets goooo

1/8th and you should trip
Tea with lemon and sugar/maple syrup is good
Though the one time i made a tea the trip wasnt as strong as expected so im not sure if this is due to the mushrooms or the process. Tea hits you way faster than eating though and is a shorter duration.
Most important thing is going in with a good mindset. As long as your in a scenario thats comfortable and “safe” feeling for you then you should be fine. Immersing yourself in Nature is great, but sitting on the couch with music on is great too.
Avoid taking mushrooms with people who will not be taking them when you do AND have never taken before
Godspeed

I love going full hero (5g dried) or more, but that's less frequently due to the impact - just need time and distance to process. And I love doing it in the dark, quiet and alone. I've had the most profound experiences that way. And I like micro-dosing too.
If I'm not in the mood for some really deep obliteration, I'll watch fractal videos.
That's always fun. "Oooh. Ahhh. Wowww. How is this possible."
I can't say that this is definitely fact, but my instincts have always told me that bad trips are the result of not letting go fully. If there is any reluctance to surrender, any attempt to stay with the normal method of experiencing consciousness, then that could be problematic. We have to let them do their thing. And, of course, any negative mindset going in is not good. Set & setting.

dont know about dosage, but i used to live with a girl who babysat someone's magic mushroom collection. he was growing them in a terrarium and was out of town for a bit so he gave it to her. she could pick and keep a bunch of stuff. eventually she moved out and i was left with a paper bag full of mushrooms. used to micro dose all the time, they always put me in a good mood.
mushrooms are good stuff! never had a bad time on them.

I tried raw.
I tried it in tea.
I tried it one last time as tea plus raw.
Not a single time did i experience anything other than a big fucking headache.
Then i was told by my dealer that my mind is too strong and fights it at all cost. And that she finds it so fascinating that she wants to make it her mission to get me high.
Well ever since i am back to coke. Cola

I dont consider this to be a drug drug.
Its not addictive in any way.
It can be fun it can be an eye opening experience. Or it can be nithing like in my case.
I consider coffee to be a drug. Alcohol to be a drug. Yet its accepted though its the worst for your body and mind.
In fact lot of people microdose and it helps them a lot in everyday life. Half of silicone valley is microdosing btw.

I still have them at the cottage every year. They are definitely best enjoyed in the outdoors in good weather. I've never had a bad trip on anything so I just eat a bunch of them and see where it takes me.

I did a 5g, lemon tek with ginger (my stomach can be a bitch sometimes, so that helps). Albino Penis Envy. Shit was beyond magical. I think there was only 5 responses in the thread before i finally passed out. Read them, several times, over and over, but couldn't reply at the time.. 12/10 trip, would definitely recommend.
I used to like acid waaaay more, but recently that has changed for me after a few trips with my buddies lately. This was because we did 2.5g of Psilocybe azurescens, and we swore up and down we were being watched by the cops (we were in a state park near the time of closing, they were just looking out for our safety, nothing more). That was a horrible, but ultimately beautiful trip (near the end of course)

To truly understand the clown world we live in, you just have to look at the fact that alcohol is largely unregulated while shrooms can carry potentially heavy legal consequences, depending on region, etc.
When you know the effects of those two things - the devastating effects alcohol has on society at large, and when you know the potential for not only personal but societal positive change that could come about through mushrooms, yeah, life is absurd.

I struggle from alcoholism. Like REALLY bad. Shrooms have helped more than AA, or anything I have tried. Definitely agree with everything you said! It's crazy how alcohol, very addictive and bad for health, is completely legal. While shrooms, impossible to be mentally/physically addicted to, great for depression, anxiety, PTSD, etc, are illegal in most places. Fucking society man.

Oh i forgot to say the doses.
Me and my friends usually eat an entire 15 euros pack each, i don't exactly remember the dose, but the guy in the smartshop usually tells people to share a pack in 2, so maybe around 10-15 gr each?
Last time was like 6-7 years ago so i don't know the situation now.

Same for weed.
Alcohol and cigarettes being legal is one the biggest joke ever.

Seriously though! There craziest thing is starting to come down from shrooms, and hitting some good bud. Brings you right back up, and then some. I wish it was a requirement of society to do shrooms, whether it be a low or strong dose. We would be in a MUCH better place!

last time i did shrooms was in my mid 20s....in recent years though my urge to do them increased. and by chance i found a connect who always has them. so my wife went away with the kids for a weekend and I tripped solo with my dog. it was an amazing time.
and im 34.
dont let age be a barrier!

Not gonna lie, trippin by yourself with animals are the highlight to my life! I have a good friend that is the equivalent to Noah from the Bible. She has at least 2 of each animal, and it's so fun to just be around animals! It's as if they realize you're on something, and become so much more friendlier.

If you live close to me, hit me up! Forget getting them from cow shit. I got some B+ as well. I'm going to be cultivating soon.
I've been that far gone, but never a reaction like that. I'd hate to experience that. Fuuuuuck. A good 6 hours though lol. Wonder if he took amenita mushrooms instead of psilocybin.
Also this is my first thread! Not used to seeing a blue bubble next to my name!

I'm 51, and I'm flying!
At the risk of repeating myself, what I'm seeing is someone who is struggling to let go. Asking "Is I going to die?" "Don't kill me." etc. If the ego is unwilling to let go, death can be traumatic, but if the ego surrenders, there is indescribable bliss as the borders of the "self" dissolve and there is only pure awareness without a focal point.
Having said that, of course different people can react differently to different substances, and differently to the same substances in different contexts. He may have not known much about what he was getting himself into and it resulted in panic. Again, I can't say for sure. But speaking from my own experience, resistance is not a good thing. (I've never had a problem letting go, but I was very aware that if I didn't release that I'd be in for some trouble.) Edit: Trouble of my own making.

I like acid for the constant sustained feeling. You know you are tripping when shit hits the fan. On shrooms it comes in waves, and sometimes you can feel like you are going to stay in that mental realm forever. But I love the loss of ego. On acid, I feel like you get an ego boost in a sense.

Mushrooms aint no drugs bro. It’s not addictive at all and as far as I know it aint damaging as well (psychically)

Do a bit of research and make sure you dont do it alone. Also keep a person around that didnt take any.
Further then that.. do it!

Yes, that's certainly, for lack of a proper word to convey it, absolute bliss imho.
Time moving weird is always fun. I remember looking at my hand once (of course, lol) and I would close it, but visually it remained open for a while. Of course there are many other weird aspects to the flow of time while on shrooms.

I got to know a couple of famous SEGA devs around the turn of the century, because the brother of my girlfriends sister worked at United Game Artists (of REZ and Space Channel 5 fame), and I heard a lot of stories about psychedelics and rave parties.
I have even heard about them giving out paper LSD to their employees from time to time.

The first time was in Amsterdam (where else?). Christmas Day (god bless Holland!). Me and the missus came up....in Ann Frank's House. Which was an...interesting experience? But not as funny as the tram back to the hotel, where reality began to fold in on itself like Inception. :O
The rest of Christmas day was spent watching the Incredibles on TV. I discovered hidden subtext and meaning I never knew was in the movie.
I'd really like to try DMT... but one review on VICE put me off, where some dude described his trip as being held down for hours and raped by Crocodile beings that he couldn't escape from

First rule of psychedelics is that they enhance the mood your currently in, so if you're not feeling tip top DON'T risk it or you'll be stuck with a bad trip.
I got spiked once and instead of going "You fucking asshole what did you give me!!" I remembered the rule and just chilled. Didn't want to be taking bad vibes with me that night and it was a long night.

I shroom 2 or 3 times per year with my close friends.
We either chill at home with some good music (during winter) or head out into the woods and fields during summer.
I've taken some 'heroic' doses but I have a pretty high tolerance and only ever really get a nice feeling or euphoria, the giggles and some mild fractal patterns with a nice 'glow' to everything (like I'm living in a cartoon or a level of Super Mario).
I think it's definitely best on a nice sunny day in the woods - especially if there are lots of flowers and tress around as they make some awesome patterns.
I've never had a bad trip but have had a bit of a dodgy stomach - shrooms do usually give me the rotten shits for the day but it's nothing too bad.
I actually took them for the very first time during lunch break in high school but it was pretty mild dose and we all just got the giggles - the train commute home was pretty interesting though lol
I find them to be a mild psychedelic and a good beginners trip although I do know some people that haven't had a good time on them so obviously everyone handles them differently.
I've actually had far stronger trips for huge doses of edible weed - again I wouldn't recommend this to everyone, I'm a seasoned psychonaut. LSD is also much stronger and lasts a LOT longer so I def wouldn't recommend that until you've enjoyed a few shroom trips.
