Do you think shrooming alone could be dangerous?

Well obviously there is some risk involved, but how much really? I ask because non of my friends want to try it with me. I might be able to get one of them to be a sitter, but if I don't, I just wanted to know how risky it is. If I do shroom alone the first time, what should I do? Should I just stay at home and listen to music (my parents will be home, sleeping), or should I do it during the day and go for a hike or something?

Basically, how in control are you on shrooms?

 

"Basically, how in control are you on shrooms?"
On a mild does(1.5 g), you will be in control, but be mentally "different" and very obviously on drugs to other people. On higher doses, you can go from heavily intoxicated to ego loss. In short, I wouldn't want to trip with parents in the house, but I'd also want to be somewhere that I could easily get home without using a car or having to travel long distances.

"Do you think shrooming alone could be dangerous?"
IMHO, shrooming with a person who is familiar with and supportive of psych. use and well trusted is best. Especially for the firt few times it is good. Tripping with people will also help break you of any mental loops or dark spots you may get into. You will be less "into your own brain" with other people around.
IMHO tripping with someone who is not trusted/judgemental/annoyed about being your "sitter"/otherwise going to bring negativeity into the scene is worse than tripping alone.

For a first time if I could truly not find a buddy, I'd wait until parents are gone for the entire time, rent a couple of awesome movies, and eat a low dose and watch some movies and take a walk later in the trip if I felt safe.

Cheers

 

^^^^^^^^^^^
listen to the man he knows wats up. i used to be all gung ho about drugs and no one wanted to try nething with me so every drug i've tried for the first time has usually been alone. i dont recommend it at all i have since learned to treat psychedelics with respect. my first time shroomin i ate 1/8 of quality mushies and was home with my mom right upstairs damn it was rough. dont get me wrong though i had a blast lol but take a small dose like he said if u cant find a friendand dose as u deem u can safely dose. IMHO tell those friends of yours they're all poon's and go have a blast and tell them how much fun you had

Take about 1.5g for your first time if your doing it alone. a full 8th if you have a friend there

 

I pray to you please god do NOT rent movies and waste your trip on a couch. FUCK THAT. Indoor tripping sucks ass. Go outside go on a hike on a familiar trail, don't sit inside on your ass staring at a TV, it just sucks.

This is very right on though:

 

my first time shrooming I was alone. I ate about 7 grams, it got pretty intense, things coming out of the TV, my hands morphing, i did it alone in my house though so I knew I would not get caught, no anixiety about parents or anything.


it's alot more fun to be around other people though I find,

 

One should not try mushrooms, for it is a drug and drugs are bad mmmkay? I do not condone the use of drugs for any purpose. The information listed below is for educational use only.

My first time was on a day that snowed... I spent like 2 hours sitting in my car, radio on watching snowflakes... don't waste it on a movie... less its something like Yellow Submarine "it's all in the mind"
Alone, with friends, in your parents house with them in the other room it really doesn't matter. Just follow these simple rules:

Eat about 2g and STOP!!! I ate about 3.5 my first time because "nothing was happening" subsequently I've always ate about that much each time.

Be prepared for bodily functions to feel like a new experience.

Kaladescope eyes are normal

Have a sedative to calm you down when it starts getting too intense

You stomach will churn right before you start peaking (I've never puked)

I've done it alone more then with others.

 

When I did mushrooms alone it was a great experience. It was only the 2nd or 3rd time I dis 'shrooms and it was amazing, I was in my university room and everything around me formed into something beautiful. My mass-produced surrounding came to life, I was alone and could ponder at will, changing television channels at will, stare at the same spot at will.

 

Well if you do it when your parents are home MAKE SURE THEY ARE ASLEEP AND WILL NOT WAKE UP FOR 5-6 HOURS. Take about 2-2.5 grams and you will probably be fine if you just chill in your room quietly (if you are loud your parents may come to your room to tell you to quiet down and then they will be able to tell easily). So basically you will be fine if you do this-

Dont take a huge dose (over 3 grams), for obvious reasons
Make sure your parents are asleep and WILL NOT WAKE UP and talk to you, i cannot stress this enough, parents can turn a beatiful trip into the worst hours of your life, even if they dont catch you, you will get VERY nervous if you have to talk to them
Be quiet so they dont wake up and you shall have an awesome trip man

 

I dont know if you are a girl or a boy, but if you are a boy i recommend keeping a pee bottle in your room so you dont have to exit your room for the whole trip. Also i would bring some drinks and food into your room for once the peak is over (i get pretty hungry after, i dk if this is normal for everyone)

 

I shroomed alone and woke up with a 2" gash in the back of my scalp and bruises from my upper back down to my ass, but understand that I did it in the middle of an American metropolis. Take a buddy with you, please! You NEVER know what will happen to you.

 

I tripped alone my first time. Beautiful experience...I've yet to have another that compares.

 

I think most people will be fine alone as long as there mentally stable, only things I'd recommend a sitter for is salvia and some of the tryptamines that blow you away immediately like that too.

 

So what was decided?

 

Trip with a buddy if you're in open territory. Only trip alone if you're safe and secure.
