i always just give em a quick bite or two then wash em down with some emergen-C! still doesnt avoid picking dried mushroom from your teeth for 30 min though..
I use emergen-c as well! 1000 milligrams of vitamin c fool! Whether or not its a myth that vitamin c intensifys a trip i still use it every time just in case. With any drug actually, it cant hurt and your body could use the extra defence after you take a toll on it like that.

i have always found out that GRAPEFRUIT juice kicks my ass when i do mushrooms.

i can never figure out if it was the potency of the mushrooms that kicked my ass...
or the vitamin C in the juice...
or maybe BOTH.
haha

There are several substances in grapefruit that cause interactions with a long list of medications, one of which is ergotamine, the active ingredient in some migraine medications. Ergotamine is a derivative or ergot which is partially where lsd comes from. Since psilocibin works on similar pathways as ergotamine(and lsd) it should stand to reason that grapefruit could have a some effect when eating mushrooms due to more that just the vitamin C.

According to wikipedia and various other pharmaceutical info sites. Surely someone around here has something much more informed to say on the matter.

I made some tea last night and it didn't have the same effects of eating the whole shrooms. Steeped it while cooking dinner, 25-30 minutes, still a much more mild high than just eating em..

i agree.

making tea is only good IMO when you have so many mushrooms, using up a couple few grams, doesnt matter.

I only steeped mine for five minutes, maybe one or two more, Heat dose degrade psilocibin.

I made this thread so anyone who is curious about tripping may read this.
[other links and text from other sources are for noobies who want to be educated and is a fast, easy AND organized way of retrieving information.]

People need to be educated on what psychedelic drugs do to you while you are TRIPPING or under the influence of them. (such as cannabis [thc], LSD acid, DMT, magic psilocybin mushrooms, peyote, mescaline.etc. and ALL OTHER NATURAL OCCURRING PLANTS THAT HAVE PSYCHEDELIC PROPERTIES)

It is important. because I think people need to know what the drug does to you before you take it.

I am a perfect example from past history with psychedelics.
First off being curious about what the substance would do to me.
which led to many "bad trips" or psychedelic crisis.
once I gained knowledge of what the drug does to me, (instead of taking it at high doses and being unknowledgeable of what it does to me ... ) I slowly realized the sacred power of psychedelic drugs.

entheogen (en/within ~ theo/God/divine ~ gen/to create/generate)


But first !!!
you need to know what the term "psychedelic" means.
the word's definition means mind opening . OPEN AND EXPAND YOUR MIND
psychedelic
The term psychedelic is derived from the Greek words ψυχή (psyche, "soul") and δηλοῦν (deloun, "to manifest"), translating to "soul-manifesting".


okay. lets discuss the main effects of psychedelic drugs while the person is tripping...

before you even take the drug YOU MUST KNOW THIS:

-SET AND SETTING (who will you be tripping with and where you will be tripping)
most, if not all, bad trips are caused because of the wrong set and setting.
Make sure the whole duration of the trip will not be interrupted. [this is why most people turn their cell phones off and put them in a safe place before they trip]
Once you start tripping you become more sensitive to your senses, emotions, thoughts....basically everything in your mind and around you. Make sure the people you are with are trust worthy. Everything that makes you happy can help a bad trip. Most experienced users know how to treat this. Its a simple as being a compassionate friend.


-DOSAGE (how much you take)

every trip CAN have a sweet spot. but it can be tricky to get to that sweet spot.
once you get there. it is THE perfect dose (however your sweet spot may be and whoever you are). but if you take too much you cant undo what you ate.
the thing that is tricky about the dose is many things but the best way to judge by slowly working your way up and getting familiar with the potency. BE PATIENT.
BECAUSE IF YOU EAT TOO MUCH AND GO PASSED THAT SWEET SPOT. YOU CANT UNDO WHAT YOU ALREADY ATE...dont regret it
but if you are completely comfortable with this. take the dose you want.

okay now that i got you thinking WHY you are going to trip.
here are some descriptions on what happens to someone while they are tripping...



-Thought process is sped up. (Time Dilation)
You think faster. Your brain receives more information under the influence of the drug and it can use more parts of the brain at one time.
Seconds on a wall clock seem like minutes. Minutes seem like hours.
Time slows down as the mind speeds up.
This could be used to take advantage of.


-Hallucinations
open and closed eye visuals. colors. enhancement. distortion. brightening. designs on surfaces. kaleidoscopic movement of designs on surfaces. trails and after imaging. warping. objects morphing or turning into other objects. Confusion of the senses. Altered or confused signals to the brain (hot feels cold. cold feels up. blue tastes like maple syrup.) for more info...click here


-Increased sense of conscience
feeling of oceanic connectedness to the universe; blurring of boundaries between self and other. "being at one with the universe". you realize that WE ALL are universally connected through the conscience. You can have ESP experiences at high doses. You can literally hear each others thoughts without communicating through physical language. (you dont have to speak) You are more sensitive to others thoughts. even God.
"Let your conscience be your guide!" - jiminy cricket
"May the force be with you" - star wars


-Non stop Philosophical Jibber Jabber - REALIZATION

non stop talk about life and "why are we here"
very spiritual and everything seems to make more sense.
this happens more on higher doses OR through focusing on the subject of philosophy. this is where you can learn about information you have never known about but you learn it from yourself for the first time. You put all the pieces of the puzzle together FASTER. You feel as if God is using you as a puppet to speak the truth to others around you. People feel they "talked to God" or a higher power when these type of experiences happen.

-Productiveness and Appreciation- THE THIRD EYE

having a sense of seeing where to go in life/this reality.
figuring it all out. sense of enlightenment. you believe 100%.
this effect wares off onto the individual to his/her sober, regular, normal life.
it also happens during the experience.
boring tasks AND/OR fun activities become more fun.
once the drug wares off this effect seems to stay.
Therapeutic psychological reflection.
increase in associative & creative thinking. mental and physical stimulation. you feel you want to get all the things you need to take care of in your responsible life done. hallucinations or visuals from past trips seem to stay, not as intense but the more anyone's third eye is open, the more the visuals stay. (it seems)
You start to appreciate the simple things in life. You start to appreciate outdoors and nature even more. You gain happiness and love. You feel you want to change your life for the better and you realize that psychedelic drugs ARE OKAY, if used correctly.


-Life Changing Spiritual Experiences
ever had a life changing event? LIFE CHANGING !?!?!
no matter what kind of experience it may be, be it with psychedelic drugs or not.
a life changing event is a life changing event.
and anyone who has had a life changing event knows how powerful of an experience it can be. It can be so powerful the memories will stick with the individual forever.
this effect can be either positive or negative.
For positive, neutral, or negative effects:

DMT: http://www.erowid.org/chemicals/dmt/dmt_effects.shtml
LSD:http://www.erowid.org/chemicals/lsd/lsd_effects.shtml
Mushrooms:http://www.erowid.org/plants/mushrooms/mushrooms_effects.shtml

THE PSYCHEDELIC EXPERIENCE

-LEVEL 1:
This level produces a mild 'stoning' effect, with some visual enhancement (e.g. brighter colors) Some short term memory anomalies. Left and right brain communication changes causing music to sound 'wider'. Can be achieved with moderate to high doses of cannabis or low doses of psilocybin.

-LEVEL 2
Bright colors, and visuals (i.e., things start to move and breathe) some two-dimensional patterns become apparent upon shutting one's eyes. Confused or reminiscent thoughts. Change of short term memory leads to continual distractive thought patterns. Vast increase in abstract thought becomes apparent as the natural brain filter is bypassed. Can be achieved with very high doses of cannabis, small doses of psilocybin, mescaline, or LSD as well as regular doses of MDMA.

-LEVEL 3
Very obvious visuals, everything looking curved or warped patterns and kaleidoscopes seen on walls, faces etc. Some mild hallucinations such as rivers flowing in wood grained or 'mother of pearl' surfaces. Closed eye hallucinations become 3 dimensional. There is some confusion of the senses (e.g., seeing sounds as colors). Time distortions and 'moments of eternity'. Body movement becomes difficult and disorienting.
There is a heightened sense of awareness of one's own feelings and drive. People who reach level 3 usually report it as thought provoking and life changing. For some people who reach level 3, their ability to discern is somewhat thrown off. People who reach level 3 and higher are more likely to respond to suggestive stimuli. At such a level it is recommended that there be a sitter to watch over the tripper just in case he/she would do something that could be a potential hazard. Can be achieved with normal doses of psilocybin, mescaline, or LSD

-LEVEL 4
Strong hallucinations, that is, objects morphing into other objects. There are many subtypes of these: Mandelbrots, spirals, wave interference patterns,etc. Destruction or multiple splitting of the ego. (Things start talking to you, or you find that you are feeling contradictory things simultaneously) Some loss of reality. Time becomes meaningless. Out of body experiences and extra-sensory perception type phenomena. Blending of the senses(Synesthesia). Visuals containing imagery from Hindu, Aztec, Mayan, Native American, Indian and African cultures are quite common.

-LEVEL 5
level 5 effects are exclusively attributed to serotonergic psychedelic tryptamines, such as N,N-dimethyltryptamine (DMT), 4-phosphoryloxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine (psilocybin) and 5-methoxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine (5-MeO-DMT). These experiences can still be achieved with REALLY HIGH doses of LSD, mushrooms, and mescaline. Experiences include total loss of visual connection with reality, the sense of not being human or having a body, and the feeling of being in many places at the same time. The loss of reality is so extreme that it becomes ineffable. People have been reported seeing themselves in entirely different settings than their original setting, and many people experience the feeling of being in a simulated reality; often computer simulated. Religious phenomenon is reported at this level; often mentioned is a connection to an "all-knowing presence" or a "universal knowledge", which many equate with extra-terrestrials, artificial intelligence, God, love, or "enlightenment". This level is most often experienced by users of DMT. it can still happen with LSD, mushrooms, or mescaline AT HIGH DOSES and some attributes of this level can happen at lower levels.

Users commonly report:
-Being clearly thrust into outer-space at extreme speed.
-Being thrust into an expansive void-like alternate dimension consisting of bright colorful fast moving kaleidoscopic environments, dynamic pulsating colored beams, as well as complex three dimensional geometric, mathematical, and linguistic patterns made of light.
-Continually traveling at great speeds, while watching patterns fly by morph, open, and reveal more complex patterns within.
-Encountering different types of living beings and superintelligent body-less entities at the same time as 1, 2, and 3. These reports include contact with free-floating entities made of light resembling giant spheres, humanoids, multiple types of unrecognizable insects, human-sized praying mantises, elves, cephalopods, complex robotic machines, and plants.
-Intelligent beings attempting to communicate with users via visual linguistics, mathematics, morphing colored diamonds of different textures (flesh, gold, liquid metal, colored light). People report beings/entities manipulating what they can see and view; intentionally propelling them in different directions at disorienting speeds, forcing them to view or enter macro and microscopic scale objects and settings including: planetary systems, galaxies, quasars, natural environments, space habitats, technological utopias, neurons, DNA, mitochondria, trilobites, cephalopods, bryozoa and artificial self-replicating machines
-Most users report similar auditory patterns, of a combined high frequency whine, and a slow deep throbbing tone similar to a heart beat. Most DMT users report feeling psychologically uninhibited, clear headed while experiencing peak effects, and able to maintain the ability to think and reason in the above circumstances but once it wears off. you forget the experiences like youd forget a dream unless you collect those thoughts and record them.

But what about the holes in your brain? And what about your spine? Ever think abou that?
Couldn't that be propaganda? Have you considered that? If a substance actually put holes in your brain you'd have a lot more to worry about than having a bad trip.

dude....
if THIS were true.

MY BRAIN [or even a lot of our brain's] WOULD HAVE MORE HOLES THAN SWISS CHEESE!!!

I have used LSD AT LEAST 250+ times in my life.
I have used mushrooms just as many [separate occasions]
and I have used ecstasy enough times to count....
not to mention all the sily drugs that I used to experimented with.

and I know my intelligence is MUCH greater than young adults MY age.
I can honestly and safely say that MY BRAIN AND SPINE IS IN PERFECT WORKING CONDITION and that my use of psychedelic drugs has NOT affected my body in ANY WAY.

"using LSD one time in your life can make your brain stem bleed"
BULLSHIT!!!

NO SINGLE PERSON from the medical community will admit that PSYCHEDELIC DRUGS DO NOT cause long term damage [or any damage at that] physically to the human body!!!

leave OUR spines out of this
cuz thats BULLSHIT!

perhaps re evaluate what you hear from others and then you put your OWN pieces to the puzzle.
