Thinking too much

is there any way to calm down your thoughts...whenever im on shrooms i always find myself thinking way too much...i cant stop and it really gets annoying after a while. Id like to just relax and enjoy the visuals

 

umm, i think thinking is part of the shroom experience

 

Yeah, shrooms make you think. What you should do is spend the day before just relaxing, so all of your thoughts are good ones. also, trip with a friend so you have somebody to talk with about all the crazy shit you think of.

 

what a silly fuckin post dude

u get annoyed with thinking? like bad trips or what???? if you're just interested in the visuals my suggestion is watch TV

it's all good brothah, sounds like drugs aren't for you.....drink alcohol, smoother for lotta people

 

A mushroom experience is suppose to give you insight

 

what the fuck is your guys problems...do you ever stop to think maybe my mind doesnt work the same way as yours? i seriously cant focus on anything else for more than 2 seconds before my mind wanders back to philosophical thoughts. No shit it's part of the experience...but i would like to be able to enjoy the visuals at least for part of the trip.

 

much love brothah.....sorry if i came across harsh....a little touchy when i posted this 1.....but i dont know what to tell you other than thats how shroom trips are.....you don't necessarily just sit there and focus on philosophy....thoughts fly from all parts of your mind and things come into perception never before seen or felt.

i don't know how much a selection of boomers you get but different shrooms are known for typically stronger hallucinations, others stronger for mind boggling experiences, look into that......plus you can always not trip so hard....a mild mushroom trip.....like 3/4 of an 1/8 oz is usually just a nice smooth body high, which sounds what you're looking for maybe...i dunno, this won't give you the hallucinations as much but your thoughts will be much calmer than an intense trip of shrooms

hope this helps out brothah..........happy tripping

 

lol ok. i apologize for what i said then...i think it was just that i was walking around school on a hot sunny day...so i couldnt really relax. i think shrooms are probably more enjoyable in a house. but i guess yesterday i was just having somewhat of a bad trip and i blamed the thoughts = ) lol but anyways yea peace peace peace love and respect!

 

alls good brothah......and yeah, your surroundings could be definetly to blame for a bad trip....shit, bad trips a bad trip...happens i guess, some more than others

 

never expect a mushroom trip to be logical or for yourself to control the outcome bc psylocibin basically chemically causes chaos in your brain...the trick is to realize that fact and some how turn it into something to evolve from

 

Smoking weed makes me stop thinking and just get intense, intense visuals, and talk a lot of nonsense with friends. That's why i don't smoke on trips anymore, but it could help you.

 

the cure to this is to go with the flow. do not expect to think a certain way and do not get upset or frightened if you think things that you do not wish to think. by fueling the thoughts they will grow. just rest assured that thoughts are thoughts and they are like the clouds and will pass by no matter what. if you are caught in a negative thought loop, i recommend to remind yourself that you are indeed on a drug that blows everything out of proportion. for that reason, you should feel calm in that everything is temporary much like the water flowing in a river. not all thoughts are positive and not all thoughts are negative. we all have both types to different extents. what you must achieve, however, in your psychedelic experiences is this understanding and, more importantly, acceptance of your current condition. you must learn to accept everything as is! without attachments! allow yourself the liberty to feel whatever you must feel and leave it at that. don´t buy into it by excepting any negative thought as all-encompassing or true. let it speak to you and then let it go. neither accept nor deny. takes some practice, but is achievable.
peace.

 

I know what you mean man. Shrooms do that to me too, I won't be able to concentrate at all, not so much because I'm thinking too much, just their is way WAY too much going on in my head... Gets kind of noisy in there....

 

i agree... thats the way!

 

write man! just get a pen and paper and write what's in your head, ive written some crazy stuff on mushies

 

Sometimes I get caught in a constant thought circle, that's a bitch.

 

Yes I get caught in thought loops all the time. If I start thinking about philisophy I always seem to come to the conclusion that everything in the universe is a paradox.

I suppose taking a benzodiazepine(sp?) would help you relax and stop thinking so much. I personally like to endure the trip naturally so that I might learn something through introspection.

 

not to brag, but i think smarter people have this problem...where theres so many thoughts going on in their head that they cant focus on just one at a time

 

Toking some weed helps me if it gets too much. . .also just listening to music, closing my eyes, and enjoying the closed-eyed visuals

 

I start walking, lucky me there's a huge forest behind my residence and I can just walk, tripping on the visual, loving the earth beneath my feet.
