    in two weeks i'm going to have my first shroom trip... as i'm not planning to do it more than once (I bet you've all heard that one before), I want to have a really good trip. So what's your advice? (How) Can I prevent myself from having a bad trip? I really can't wait...

    if your only doin it once eat 5g+, my first time i had 7g by myself while smoking weed and it was the best experience ive ever had. if this is your first time doing anything more then just pot or alcohol get a friend to watch you, i had past experience with other drugs so i knew I'd be able to handle myself. just relax and put on some happy music, techno is pretty cool for mushies. the dark side of the moon album by pink floyd scared me shitless so i had to turn it off. also, lighting helps if your doing it at night, darkness gets kinda scary so leave a TV on at the least. happy tripping! :)

    you dont really have to worry about a bad trip on mushrooms. expecially at that small of a dose. If your in a confortable spot were you dont have to worry about anything you will be fine. LOL bet it wont be yer last time either.

    Make sure you take them with people you really like and in a safe and HAPPY environment. I find that shroomz really react to the environment that you are in so make sure it's a good one, than you'll have a good trip!

    I hate when people tell others what is "scary" when you're doing psychadelics because it's always a per-person thing. Just make sure you have your OWN experience when you trip and you'll know what's best for yourself.

    It's best if you do like themistress said and find a good environment with people you know well. It's good to have other people shrooming with you so you have someone to relate to. You might want to make sure the place you do it at has several different settings inside of it just in case you don't feel comfortable around something and want to change settings (it helps sometimes). 5 grams+ dried might be a bit too much for your first time if you're not experienced with psychadelics. An eighth is a good general rule for first-timers.

    Also, I'd like to ask why you only plan on shrooming once. Well, whatever your reason is, make sure you respect the fungus and don't try to do it if you're not ready or feel scared about it.

    I would advise taking a LOW dose. Especially if this is your first psycadelic experience... It can be very over powering at times... Just make sure that you're in a familiar and comfortable place, with close friends... Take care.

    shrooming, watching the clouds at night when theres a full moon illuminating them... its awsome :D

    i gotta try doing them in the afternoon, watching the sunset would be pretty cool

    oh and sorry for the bad advice 5g is alot but i assumed you had experience with psychedelics. my bad.

    A couple of tips: Eat on a empty stomach for maximum effect, chew well before swallowing and if you really dont like the trip or if its too strong vitamin c can bring the trip down.

    i'd advise making mushroom tea and masking the flavor with earl grey or something of the sort. it'll help avoid bad taste and will help digest the shrooms faster and easier (don't drink it too fast though or it will be uncomfortable for a bit!)...

    your post says you live in amsterdam. if you do, you should talk to the people in a smartshop or something, i'm sure they can give you good advice.

    yeah everythings stronger in amsterdam i bet.. i know the spore strains you can get here thru thehawkseye are all developed and isolated there.. i like a nature setting myself, i prefer to chew in the afternoon when the suns still well up, tea is the best, a bit of lunch and then eat em in the afternoon with a friend or two take a walkman, rubber ball or something to distract yourself with, go on some kind of journey like down to the river (watching water ripple is very cool)...i'm not a big pot head so i dont like how the two interact myself
