Amanita Pantherina Experience

[AcmeSewageCo]

Species of mushroom: Amanita Pantherina


Dose: Half a cup filled with cut/diced pieces of only the caps... Stems were placed aside...


Duration: Plus or minus seven hours


Onset: Roughly an hour and a half...





Fourth or fifth time used:


Alright... SWIM ordered some A. Pantherina from a very reliable on-line source... When they arrived SWIM sliced enough of the mushroomsand divided them intoseveral portions... Each consisting of about one half cup of diced/sliced mushroom cap matieral... SWIM ingested one of the several portions he had just cut up... SWIM enjoyed the taste of the mushrooms he consumed...


After an hour had elapsed...SWIM had concluded that the dosage level was too low, and decided to retire this trip (pronounce it a failure) and try again another day... This was due SWIM's ignorance and pecimism... He should have known that with his experience over the years... Many psychedelics take time to take their beginning effects... While SWIM was walking around... SWIM decided to cook some dinner for himself...SWIM began to notice that he was experiencing changes in visual perception... These effects became stronger over the next hour or some, and were characterized by sensing an "alive quality" in inanimate objects... Wavy motion in the visual field like a Van Gogh canvas (no color perception was associated with the motion, however, as is so commonly encountered following ingestion of LSD, psilocybin, or mescaline), and mild distortion of size, distance and depth perception... Auditory hallucination were also prominent -- especially the effect, called "anahata sounds" of yoga, of hearing fine high-pitched sounds like bells and violin strings...


SWIMexperienced only slight impairment of motor coordination and balance...Like as would be produced by a small amount of ethanol... Equivalent to two or three bottles of beer... In contrast to the effect of ethanol... However... There was no slurring of speech or clouding of consciousness... WhileSWIM felt as thoughhis consciousness was somehow removed and distant from the surroundings...SWIM experienced a sense of great clarity... AsSWIM often experience following ingestion of psilocybin-containing mushrooms... It seemed toSWIM that the psychic effect were emanating from the "ajna chakra", the so called "third eye" -- a locus above and between the eyes...


SWIM experienced no muscular spasms, cramps, vomiting, or nausea of any kind... The experience was totally pleasurable, and lasted about seven hours or so...SWIM was struck by the unique quality of the effect whereas he finds the psychic effects of LSD, psilocybin-containing mushrooms, and peyote to be similar, to be, as it were, on a continuum of related experience,SWIMfeels the A. pantherina was distinctly different... After this experience SWIM did not experience any after-effects.





Does anyone else have any other experiences with the Amanita Pantherina? With higher or lower doses? SWIM would like to order this specimen again... SWIM wouldlike to know if anyone elsewould share theirexperiences with this species of mushroom... Usually he hears of horrible tails of mushroom toxicity related to this particular species... Of thefive or sixtimes used... He has experienced no horrible effects... Anyone else?Cheers .

oh my god!!!! i didnt know amanita produced that crazy
sound/smell/visual/taste/feel!! "anahata sounds" "swim" has
experianced this from LSD and feels like a complete retard trying to
explain what this is to someone else. i didnt know amanita was
"psychedelic" in any sence. youve kinda tuned me into this.

as active as the caps also while your on your voyage? glad you

SWIM and friend ate 4-5 grams of pantherina caps once. SWIM had no visuals just a really "heavy" body load. SWIM felt extremely sleepy and went to bed around 2 hours later. Concluding that the weren't any good swim gave the remaining 12 grams to a friend running the local headshop. he assumed they wouldn't be anything special and ate all 12 grams the following day, prior to a trip to the aquarium. He said about 30 minutes after he arrived he was seeing patterns, intense colors, and having auditory hallucinations.


Should've kept 'em!

Interesting report. SWIMs never had much interest in the Amanitas. However, recently he saw the film "Altered States". Very Groovy man. I reccomend the movie to all. After watching it he has developed a slight interest in Amanitas. He'll have to look further into them. Thanks for sharing.

interesting , seems SWIM didnt get such a good compared to swim who tripped out like hell on 7 grams of amanita p. and also within 15 minutes only , take it on an empty stomach , and the thing with amanitas is that the potency varies from cap to cap and to a great extent sometimes maybe SWIM should get them off some 1 else
