Hey everyone. I've never tripped before, and was wondering if I could get a few pointers/tips. Firstly, I want to take a little more than the threshold level (maybe 2 grams, or so), so I could really immerse myself in a new thing. Secondly, I plan to do it at a music festival. To get a nice setting, I plan on tripping right before I see Sigur Ros, a band I'm familiar with, etc. I'm pretty secure that I can keep my cool and just love and enjoy the experience with no fear, so I'm not too worried about any of that. However, should I try it before the music festival to become familiar, or should I simply stick with my original plan? Thanks!
you sound pretty solid I'd say. a music fest compared to somewhere quiter or more natural would be two different trips. You'll be impressionable to a greater degree than perhaps most small kids, so whatever influence you would rather overtake you is the one you should do. Just trust yourself; you seem to already. I like the idea of taking a larger dose for a first time, to sort of dive in as you said. Your confidence and optimism will be rewarded. But sampling them beforehand to get a feel for it is totally up to you. Lower doses of shrooms can be very pleasant. IMHO, I can't think of a better place to trip than out in nature, but that might just be my native affinity for nature. You'll try both settings eventually I'm sure, just go with your gut for your first time like iO-techno said.
Thanks for the insight, it's greatly appreciated. I feel the optomism is a must for any mind altering drug, hence why i'm shooting for great expectations. A positive atmosphere, along with the happy, ambient music is something I also really considered.
your original plans sounds good. like burnabowl said, you sound pretty solid. Sigur Ros should be a great band to see while tripping as well. a music festival could be stressful, but you seem to have your stuff together and as long as you focus on the positive, I think you'll be just fine.
ambient music is a great idea. While I don't feel I've ever had a bad trip, there were times when it started going sour, and some happy, peaceful or gentle music would always flip the energy positive. dancing and music makes it hard to trip poorly
