No thought. I'd say go to heroin for all your maladies.

Depends on the setting and friends you're doing them with. Water is always best. Don't want to go into too much detail about it. Just make sure you'll be relaxed and open and comfortable.

SWIM recommends looking at various deep web markets, or perhaps personal cultivation. Spores are legal for purchase in all states but CA and GA, I believe.

Exactly. Now we'll never know.

I’ve done them several times and had different results. I’ve had some really good trips where I feel “free” and see some amazing visuals. I had some trips where I felt the complete opposite and trapped in my mind.

I went to a few Dead & Company shows last year and took some mushrooms. It was hard for me to enjoy the music because i was so hyper focused on what was going on around me that I felt like i was an outcast.

I’ve heard that by taking mushrooms your trip is dependent on what kind of state your mind is in, which baffles me due to the continued discussion on these helping depression. If that’s the case, then wouldn’t a depressed person take these and become even more depressed?

SWIM also says cultivating them is a PITA. There’s so much mold down here it’s easy for the younglings to go bad, and the substrate will get multicolored.

Mushrooms are my favorite psychedelic that I have easy access too, anybody who has ever wanted to trip but doesnt know where to start should eat some mushrooms. DMT is the best I have ever done but that stuff is impossible for me to find these days.

The potential psychological benefits from psychedelics is something I wish there were more studies on. All these soldiers coming back from the middle east getting addicted to opioids and other big pharma drugs when there is evidence that many of their issues could be treated with mushrooms or even mdma if properly administered.

I have to imagine we have only begun to scratch the surface on some of these things.

I've always been afraid I would find a poisonous mushroom and die. How do you tell which are which?

State of mind is key... and state of mind is largely dependent on “set and setting” - optimal conditions for relaxing body and mind. Hence depressed people shouldn’t take them in a place or period/time of heightened depression/anxiety.

I’m like you in that I’m prone to becoming hyper-focused on surroundings. A concert, for example, wouldn’t seem like ideal set and setting. However, as dosage increases, ego decreases... all the chaos, talking, etc becomes irrelevant. Somewhere between that state but well short of the “heroic dose” state - where you become one with everything and everyone - that’s the sweet spot. IMO, there’s a lot of wiggle room in between.

also incredibly hard to know the dosage on a piece of blotter. Could be 25 mics, could be 175. If you don't know the chemist, you're rolling the dice. All you can do is test for NBOME.


I have no idea what any of this means

I will say this. When you take them you can drink beer and it will have no affect on you.

I remember drinking 5-6 beers in an hour and it having zero affect on me.

Mushrooms also have a much shorter trip life and an easier comedown. Coming back from a 14 hour dose trip is brutal.


Agree. Never had any gastro issue from mushrooms and when the trip is over I just level off and to go sleep. Always a pleasant experience.

They were interesting, better than acid in my limited experience. I preferred downs and weed rather than going up. This was in the mid ‘70’s so it’s been a while.

I've never taken shrooms. Last time I did LSD was 20 years ago, and I had the night of my life. I decided that something that makes you feel that good can't be that good for you and never did it again.

I've been curious about micro dosing as well. Did you get any benefits from it? Would you recommend it for any purpose?
