Doing them for the first time today and I was wondering if anyone has some crucial advice/do's and dont's?

Nice one

be outside...even though its a bit cold. just be in a nice place.

Yeah, although they work wherever, it's miles better when you're outside, preferably in very nature-y place.

Wrap up warm. Whenever I take shrooms, it proper fucks with my body temperature and I can't tell whether it's hot or cold, and after a while I'd find myself either shivering or sweating. Just check the weather before you eat them; They usually take about an hour to kick in with me.

Most importantly, don't be conscious about it, brah. Take them as you would food, and then carry on as normal. Play a game or something. It cheeses me off a bit when people kind of sit around trying to will it to happen. "CAN YOU FEEL IT YET? IS IT WORKING YET? CAN YOU FEEL IT YET?" all that shit. Just go with the flow...
I try to avoid loud people as well, and business. You want to go to somewhere relatively quite and peaceful.

I always get the feeling I've pissed myself, as well, but I hear that's quite a common feeling to get when you've taken them.

Overall, have a nice time : )

If at any point you start thinking that you might be able to fly like Superman don't test your hunch by climbing to the top of a very high thing and jumping off; just try taking off from the ground.

Seriously, though, I agree with dTruk that tripping outside is better. It helps if you're doing it with someone who's done it before too.

make sure ur with the proper crowd...

once in a bad trip its super hard to get out of it...so be sure the people you are with are positive and supportive.

See, I try to avoid talking about negative shit like bad trips when I plan on doing any, I kind of wash it out of my mind.

Trust me, you won't have a bad trip. And as for that proper crowd bollocks, I don't really suggest doing them with a crowd. One or two mandem is enough, it feels alot more...personal. Your first time will be amazing. Trust.

shrooms go in waves (for me anyway) one minute i'll be laughing, feeling dandy, everything looks like tom & jerry - then the next minute i'll feel all paranoid and freaked out, and the walls will start melting and everything goes a shit-brown colour.

i don't want to freak you out, but the worst trip i ever had was on shrooms. 8 hours of throwing up, ''seeing'' these people walking around my room in patterns and shit...was like an escher painting crossed with manhunt (the game)

be prepared for this:

its all about setting/mind state though. i didn't really want to eat the shrooms and i'm quite a reclusive person. if you're outgoing and love getting fucked up on drugs - you'll probably love it

Definitely, just make sure you go for a piss before you take em and you should be alright, 99% of the time your not actually as fucked as you think you are and you wont actually piss yourself.

The ground moves like the sea, and the walls wobble : )

Everything looks lovely, how it should be.

Also, I can always hear this mechanical roar, like the sound of a giant machine in the background EVERYTIME I take them. I wish I could sample it.

prices - got offered 100 for £15 liberty caps. is this all good? how much would that weigh etc? how much do you all get them for? Dead Rats I am trusting you

being outside is a good tip and i agree that you don't need a crowd of people either, two or three of you is cool.
i have had some of my best drug experiences on mushrooms, just walking around having an adventure. proper good times with good mates.
now to think of it, i must get my hands on some...

bring water. when i come up on them i seem to dehydrate a little bit. that can feel a bit odd but nothing to worry about.

have fun mate

Have you eaten at all today? I don't munch anything down for a few days because it works so much better. And 100 for £15? That sounds alright. I pay £30.

Eat about 30-40 of em'.

dunno how much that would weight mate but sounds pretty good to me. Caps are strong little fuckers for their size anyway.

My advice for shrooms is the same for all trips. Just eat em and chill. People are saying be outside, there is some truth in that. And being up and about will stop ur muscles cramping etc. BUT, at the same time dont go somewhere ur not 100% sure of. Dont be out and about some place where u dont feel 100% secure being a total nutcase. Imo, dont be around ANYONE who isnt also tripping. Dont get pranged by anything. Be aware ur gonna go a bit insaine, u may say some random shit, u may forget where the fuck u are, who u are, what ur doing etc. Before u take them know that all that might come and be able to laugh about it.

Just be confortable, enjoy it. If u get a bad vibe coming on, remind urself, and this is important...

You didnt feel bad before u took the drug, there is nothing to feel bad about that is so important it cant wait till ur sober. You are in no state to be taking anything seriously. so whatever is worrying u, fuck it. when u sober up if the issue is still there worry about it then. In truth, it wont be, ur just deranged from the shrooms. The minute u feel a bad vibe, remember to laugh at how rediculous ur being and move on to the next thing, dont dwell on it.

...My advice, although outside is nice and probably the ebst place to do it, inside is better for ur first time, or in your garden etc. somewhere that u or a friend with u owns and u can feel 100% safe and in control of your enviroment. Cotch with some buddies, do some shrooms, maybe smoke a little ganja, I always smoke when tripping. Listen to some tunes and have a sense of humor about it, say silly things, half mangle ur sentences and talk absolute garbage and be able to laugh about it.

All this advice wont matter when uve done it a few times. And at the end of the day its just shrooms, its no big deal. shrroms are like the little brother to things like acid. Acid all the same advice applies but its a lot more serious. these are just precautions, with shrooms u really got nothing to worry about. Worrying itself is your only enimey, smile, enjoy, get fucked, have a laugh. sorted.

invite your mates round, cook up a big feast of a roast dinner or toad in the hole with a red wine and shroom gravy.... then borrow someones dogs and go find a nice wooded area for a walk... it's an awesome moon at the moment for it too.

i love just incorporating them in cooking... it's a gentle way to start as it creeps up fairly slow and then you can always have more later if you want.

depends on the mushie really - the thai's i always end up eating raw and then munching stupid loads cos i really like the taste... anything stronger/tougher like caps (which dont taste that great tbh)- make a tea or gravy... my ex couldnt never eat any type of mushy just raw... he just couldnt swallow them for some reason.

If you're doing it with friends, be with your best mates.
be at your favorite place to be.
make sure you're feeling good.
be comfortable.
be in a good mood.

and you're all good...

enjoy it, and look forward to it

also dont eat too many, last time i did them i ate 240 and threw up blood, amazing trip though

i favour acid over shrooms though, get some acid if you can at some point, like shrooms but stronger and you can take loads without your stomach rejecting it

i dont buy them i just pick them when seasons in

Best of luck on your journeys.

Be with your buds and smoke lots of weed. Psilocybin I find is rather casual in comparison to LSD / 2c-I, it should be a grand time aslong as you're not really overdoing it.

did · Post by **did** » Fri Dec 12, 2008 2:32 pm

is 100 for £15 too cheap? its not the most trusted source but i know theyre not out to kill me or anything, its more theres a chance they wont be very good. can you get different levels of potency with liberty caps like you do with bud?

im doing it at my mates dads house which is free pretty much all year so its pretty much my 2nd home and has a nice big garden. doing it with 3 best mates aswell so it should be all good and also this thread has made me feel more positive about it unlike those paranoid fuckers on shroomery forums telling me ill trip bad and stab myself and shit. i was gna say if they did that why the fuck would anyone take em?

did · Post by **did** » Fri Dec 12, 2008 2:36 pm

also, what is the average time it takes to kick in if drinking it in tea and how long does it normally take so sober up?

and is there anything i shouldnt do? im pretty sure its all good to eat, drink non alcoholic bevvers and smoke but you can never be too sure

this is my way of getting past all the skunk related para lol
