Opinions - Things to do During a Mushroom Trip

[trident.]

swim doing mush on Thursday at a friends house, and wondering what anyone suggests bringing to keep entertained and stimulated thoughout the night

i'm thinking..

music (obviously)
a sketchbook and pencil crayons
waking life (movie)
guitar

any ideas?

[roisianna]

'Waking Life' - deffinately good choice, i watched that movie today it wud b so awesome and even more thought proving on shrooms! Also try 'Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas.'


Try 'Jefferson Airplane' for music, i dunno but the guitar just sounds perfect when on shrooms. Other music = 'DJ Shadow,' 'Unkle' and 'Minnie Ripperton.'


A tube of 'Pringles' crisps - i swear takes on a life of its own!


Access to the outdoors - it's true what they all say being outside in nature on shrooms can't be beaten!


Don't worry about needing to provide stuff for entertainment, shrooms are so amazing you can just sit there and stare in a mirror or lay looking at the ceiling and be entertained for hours!

It all depends on what you enjoy. some people like to paint/draw, write. Watching movies is always good, i like to watch movies that make me think (double life of veronique, princess and the warrior) or ones that make me feel like a kid (spirited away, 16 candles) or something like lagaan (a bollywood movie) is always good.. If you have a sitter and feel comfortable enough, tripping in public can be fun. Especially if its a place that is file with colors and lights and atmosphere. Talking is always good while shrooming.. U can have great heart felt conversations with people.. I also enjoy listening to music like zero 7, frou frou, gold frapp while shrooming.. their music is very rich and always sets a great mood for me...and watching their videos (especially goldfrapp) is fun... so basically its what ever you enjoy.. what ever movie or songs you like will be good while shrooming.. and if you'd like me to recommend some more movies just ask. (i'm a movie buff)...

on shrooms u wont need to find anything interesting to do.......

[geordie]

i prefer to just chill in the outdoors, soak up the surroundings. small doses of mushrooms are also good for outdoor parties/festivals, just enough to give you light buzz and mild hallucinations, makes dancing fun aswell.

[thydarkprevails]

friends, woods, exploring....need i say more?

[discobloodbath]

Anyone ever try shrooming at an amusment park? I'm thinking a place like disneyland would be amazing (if you can handle it and not go all crazy(and had some good sitters of course)... anyone ever done anything like that? space mountain, or splash mountain while tripping. hmmm..

[Antidote]

Dancing is my favorite thing to do on mushrooms.... In fact I would take a good mushroom trip in a rave club over E anyday. Yay house music, yay trance....... Actually any music is good. As long as it's not bad.

Psychedelic Goa music

my friend said he went to six flags and ate about an 8th in the line to the biggest coaster in the park

now i would think something that would be incredibly scary, but he said it was amazingly fun

[serotonin]

if it's sunny and warm out then sitting in a huge green field with some friends can be incredably fun.

[Gangabiss]

swim's got some shrooms on the way...they should be here tomorrow. I was
just wondering what you guys think he should prepare to make this trip
the most enjoyable?

Like food, drink, music etc.

he's only done shrooms 3 times before and absolutely loves them. The
first time was insane... he was in his own little world staring at the
patterns when closed his eyes and such.

he'll be doing it alone and will think he'll probably take about 30-40grams
of cubensis.... start off taking 15grams then work up in 10's every
half hour or so.

swim hasn't tripped in ages so he really wants to get the most he can out of this and make it enjoyable.

What do you suggest?

[geordie]

Seeka:

you should probably eat them raw but have a drink to wash them down with. i wouldnt drink tequila just feel the effect of the mushrooms by themselves. if your a regular smoker you'll probably enjoy smoking a bit of hash while high on the shrooms. the shroom high can be considered similar to that of LSD although shrooms are a bit more chaotic.

[turfshark_40]

If you want to take the edge off the taste of the mushrooms I find sticking them in a brownie or in a burger like you mentioned is a good way to go. Once I made a sandwich with two cookies and some ketchup, although I don't recommend it.

Second trip I ever did, I went to the park with one of my best friends.
It was a huge park and if anyone has a park local, go there at night
time and trip. Through the night we ended up naming different sections
of the park my mind, your mind and our mind. We first took a walk
through the forest section of my mind talking about trees and the
beauty of nature and about me, then we went into your mind which was
the pond that had 2 swans that we named you and me. Because it was your
mind, you was the swan in front. And whenever the swans ducked under
the water, they were searching in your mind, the swans followed us
around the pond which was really beautiful. Then we went through a
structured hedge garden and into the childrens play ground which became
our mind. We decided it was our mind because it was sctructured and we
work well together as a team. Then we took a magic ride on the elephant
and discussed such issues as the colour pink, and why spring was the
envy of all the other seasons. We topped the evening watching Princess
Monoke on the come down. I started the evening by eating my shrooms in
a peanut butter sandwhich. Parks at night come highly recommended by me
- especially if you're in groups.

Nice suggestion!

[BEEKSc1]

if you looking for things to do while tripping on psychedelics, i highly recommend nature!!! day trip!!!natural is beatiful. psychedelics come from nature. ying yang...


beeks' theroy of psychedelics and nature: the highly most successful way to ensure a posative experience while tripping onpsychedelics is to trip outside because various psychedelics (mainly tryptamines) are found in nature (lsa, mescaline, dmt, 5-meo-dmt, 4-ho-, psilocybin, etc.)


note: this is an addition to having a trip sitter, being isolated from others, being safe, etc. endnote.

The best place to do mushrooms - or most drugs, for that matter - is at a party. Parties and drugs are made for each other, ad the worst thing that can happen when you're on mushrooms is to get bored. You need plenty of good people around you, the more the merrier.


I'm not that familiar with cubensis, but isn't 30-40g way too much?

[BEEKSc1]

really. i would never dream at a party. most ppl aren't educated ab drugs (psychedelics particularly so) and they would want to mess around with you. i strongly advice not doing boomers at a party if it is your first time. be with a couple of friends and who support you if your tripping bad, something you won't find at a party with million ppl.

[Muirner]

I dont think that i'd ever be tripping balls with mushies at a party reasons why:
- You look like Bambi your puples are the size of quarters
- When the trip goes away and then comes back like a kick to the face, you might just wanna sit and not have 14 billion ppl around.
- You might end up sitting and watching tv for hours


What does SWIM do when he is tripping, anything. He enjoys watching funny ass movies because he laughs so hard that all he remembers is laughin for hours at a time... being outside is intense go for a walk very fun just try to be around some other people who are tripping because it'll be a generally good time

[elbow]

maybe do some art? drawing or make some collages from old magazines is
really fun, if you like that sort of thing. swimming is cool, too.
Parties can be fun if they are drug-consumption friendly with lots of
freaks and wierdos to bug out with, but drunks and tripping people
definitely do not mix well.

[William_Again]

thinking, that is the best thing to do when on any mind expanding
substance...solve all your problems and then figure out how to save the
world...it seems so easy on shrooms...

[BEEKSc1]

thinking... that funny you mention thinkingbecause swim was tripping on boomers hard last friday. he went to a friends apt and there were five ppl(three only tripping). swim ended up not really chilling with the others bc he laid down on a bed and just thought.


swim's brain was using the same process over and over again to acheive a mental feeling of inner serenity. swim had his first full psychedelic experience and was crying for a diration of the trip bc of how beautiful the trip was. the girls over atthe apt didn't know what to think. they thoughtswim was wiggin out on them, when in "reality," swim was only crying bc of the shere beauty of the experience.

"I dont think that i'd ever be tripping balls with mushies at a party"

"i strongly advice not doing boomers at a party if it is your first time. be with a couple of friends and who support you if your tripping bad"



I agree with you guys on this... if it was a big party with a lot of
people you don't really know (esp. if everyone isn't tripping), that
just sounds like a sensory overload waiting to happen - a chain
reaction of people freaking out could very easily form... Plus that
point that people may try to mess with your head. IMO,
introspective drugs like shrooms are best when done with a couple close
friends.

Introspexion is overrated. (I'm gonna start spelling all those 'ct' words with an 'x' instead; it looks so cool.) I don't find myself as interesting as the world-at-large. I think it would be somehow ungrateful of me to attend to myself so much. ('Ungrateful' isn't exactly the right word, butit's the best I can think of right now.)Y'know that voiceover at the beginning of Taxi Driver:"I don't believe that one should devote his life to morbid self-attention. I believe that one should become a person like other people." Great words.


What's more interesting than a party? A lot of people gathered together in one place, grooving off each other, coming together, bringing their introspectives out into the world-at-large, becoming!
