Other - Eating While on Mushrooms

[chilliker]

How many hours after ingesting shrooms can SWIM eat again for best effect?

Chilliker - Do you mean eat more shrooms to trip again, or eat regular food food?

If SWIM took mushrooms SWIM might find it difficult to eat anything during the trip because most things taste waaay too much (Isn't that funny to say?). SWIM can usually have a very small piece of bread or a bite of orange, other than that SWIM can't stomach much of anything until after SWIM comes down a little. The tastes end up being too intense, but your mileage may vary. Eat when you want or feel like, but SWIM will say to make sure SWIY drinks water during the trip so SWIY doesn't get dehydrated.

If you mean shrooms to trip again, SWIM stays on a 3 week rotation to make sure SWIM doesn't build up a tolerance to the experience, not necessarily the drug. Too much of a good thing and all. I do believe I've read about tolerances to Psilocybin building with recurring useage but am not sure where I read that or what the amounts and usages were.

Speaking of edibles, SWIM can suggest Jolly Ranchers (hopes that's not counted as a product endorsement) but they just explode with juice in your mouth, it's awesome. And sometimes SWIM sees the color of the JR burst visually. It's quite pretty, or so I've heard.

Jimmah!

If SWIM takes the shrooms on an empty stomach lets say not eating for the last 6 to 8 hours wont he get REALLY hungry when he is tripping and has like 12 hours without eating?

SWIM doesn't usually, it's just too much stimulus input for SWIM during the trip. SWIM becomes a closed system nothing in nothing out-strange but true.

If SWIY feels like eating please feel free to. The day of SWIM usually will eat breakfast, a light lunch by noon, down the maoi at 4:20 (heh) and ingest the capsules at 5pm. This trip will last until 11ish or so and when it's all over SWIM can go to bed and sleep very heavily until morning.

SWIM just has never wanted to eat. SWIM has seen others chow down propah when they have finished their trip, but it is a rarity for SWIM to. Maybe a small snack, but not much else. Really it's all up to SWIY and how SWIY feels during and whilst coming down.

SWIM might say that SWIY may want to eat a tad closer to trip time. SWIM doesn't handle fasting very well and it makes SWIM a bit woozy. Tripping makes SWIM feel woozy anyway so it is twice as bad to SWIM. Your mileage may vary.

It's not dangerous no matter what SWIY does (except for tyramines and maoi interactions). The only real effect eating will have is that it will lessen the effects or delay the trip. That's it, no bad stuff. SWIM knows of peeps who have eaten a decent dinner, injested shrooms 2 hours later to have the trip not start for another 2 hours. Weird but true. The less in your stomach the better, but the less in your stomach will increase woozyness possibly. But again that's really the only effect it will have.

Have fun and don't worry a bit. SWIY is gonna have so much fun! SWIM kept yelling "ALL NATURAL!" SWIMs first trip. It was truly a blast. Enjoy and make sure to look at the sky if SWIY can and just marvel at what SWIY is doing.
