Hey, guys. Im kinda new to posting on the forum but I had a couple questions about this. I have been a pot smoker for a few years now and always wanted to try tripping and found myself going to acid instead of shrooms this summer. I tried it once and it was probably the greatest day of my life. I liked it ok for the visuals and stuff, but I more enjoyed just going into a different perspective and looking at myself and others from a new point of view. Basically, I was much more interested in the visual side of it than just "getting fucked up". Anyhow, my roomate up here at school, who I have been friends with for a while also wants to try tripping and I would love to try it again. Up here though, nobody does acid but there are plenty of shrooms to go around. So basically what differences can I expect from trying shrooms as oppposed to LSD? Also, what kind of things should I look for to know if its good? How much should I take/pay? etc. Any advice would be great. Thanks guys.
hard white stems, round tight closed caps, 20 an 8th i think is too pushing it. shorter duration, probubly more body load. visuals are different cant find the right words at the moment but just fine, ego melting qualities are quicker and more brutal in my opinion, they probubly wont taste very good. shrooms are nice, I think you'll like em.
In my experience mushrooms gives you a lot more of a headfuck than acid (in a good way, lol). There is also a much greater body load. If you enjoyed acid then chances are you will enjoy mushrooms. Just start off at a low dose and work your way up. Happy trippin' man.
shrooms are a little more chaotic than acid, in my opinion, but they also don't last as long, which is a plus if things get out of hand. take somewhere between 2-3.5 grams. you'll probably buy by the eighth (3.5 g) though, which should run you about 20-35 a bag. it will definitely feel familiar compared to acid, but there's a distinct character to it. personally i prefer acid, but shrooms can be really great.
I have not ever tried acid, but I did shrooms. I ate about 2.3 grams and it was pretty wild. I would say for the first time, go with that amount, at least 2 grams. If you really liked acid and love the feeling of tripping, then I say go in hard and take 1/8 because the shrooms I got were pretty good. If you don't get good ones, you will still trip with that amount. Its better to trip really hard and have nice visuals than to be dissapointed and not end up tripping, trust me, this is what happened with me and lsd.
Can people please stop telling people to take a certain amount of mushrooms in weight. The strength of mushrooms varies greatly from strain to strain therefore the dosage should too.
For your first trip I'd say it's definitely better to not trip than to trip way harder than you wanted too. You can always take more next time and a truly horrible experience will stay with you for the rest of your life.
in a very basic description of the difference between the two, visually, acid- you'll see things warp into other things shrooms- you'll see things that aren't actually there shrooms i found make you really become one with the others that you trip with, your own world, and it really makes you see life in a whole different way. but your more uncontrollable during your trip.
its not his first, he said he has done acid. I think that, from my experience, its better to go hard and trip for sure then to be disappointed. But that is because I could not ever see myself having a bad trip. But thats just me Just be in the right setting and with good friends. Make sure you dont have anything terrible on your mind and have fun. I dont think you see things that arenl't there on shrooms. I have heard that everything melts on acid, well on shrooms, everything is alive, at least for me. When I did it, the trees would wave, and grass was like move. Shrooms are more of a stoned - mental high. If you like thinking crazy things then go for it. That is the best advice because everyone I know has said that it is more of a mental "head fuck" so to speak. also your body sorta feels like ur drunk and high but you see nature in a whole different way -at least i did.:hat:
wow thanks for all the tips guys. i gotta turn the email notification things back on. i have a couple threads to respond to. i think my roommate and i are just gonna go ahead and get both, cause he hasnt tried either of them...we were thinking of splitting an eighth since the kid we are getting from says the stuff he gets is pretty strong and that was plenty for him his first time. hes going to some festival to get from a guy he gets from at a bunch of festivals. so all the lsd and shrooms coming our way have been used numerous times by a trusted friend. thanks a lot for the advice though guys. and if we do the shrooms the first time instead of the lsd then ill let u guys know how it went. (i wanna try to space out the amount of time between trips, it should be a more special occasion thing in my personal opinion, for my mind and body at least...)
mushies mushies mushies mushies mushies mushies muhseis mushies they are the beez neez! i love them do them... eat them... enjoy them... go for an adventure! LIVE DA SHROOMIES! -kush-
i did an 1/8 of shrooms a few months ago and (even thought i havent personally tried acid) shrooms will just bend reallity as you see it. like you wont hallusinate an object that isnt there, you'll just see wats there and it will look like its bending or moving. also like at one point all my sight was changing colors. everything i looked at would change to red, then orange then yellow. it was really cool. occationally i heard voices that werent real. but i never saw somthing that wasnt really there.
I find shrooms are much more thematic in a crazy/bizzare way, while acid is more moody or glowing. on shrooms everything has breath, but on acid, things combing to form unity and then breath as a whole. shrooms remove less barriers and have less meshing of senses, but the things you see are in their own right just as tripped, just less unified but just as whole. shrooms were much more comfortable and relaxed, even when everything was going wrong, because i didnt feel like events were unifying with my soul. everything was alive, yes, on shrooms. but on acid, everything was conscious, in a way, and not necessarily alive (a life)
i dont have that much experience with acid but where im from we dont decide to take 2 grams of mushrooms or sort it out in grams...we go picking then clean them and make it into tea or just go grazing .
personally i prefer shrooms their more mental. not to say that i dont LSD its alot of fun. the way i see it is like this. this is not absolute but IMO the drugs lean in these directions. take acid to have fun take shrooms to learn .............again not absolute i learn on acid and have fun on shooms but kindof of general profile of the drug from my experience
Hmmm...you really think shrooms makes you see things that aren't really there? I've done a lot of acid and shrooms (mostly NW closed cap cubensis) and I can honestly say I've never seen something that wasn't actually there. Sure, I've seen things that I didn't or couldn't see before, either because they allow for us to see more of what's actually present or simply view it in a different way (maybe some other reason?)? I did see a wild thing once, but that's the perfect example of what or rather how shrooms makes one see. We were driving fairly fast past tall grass, and the wild thing's shape was formed out of the passing grass...made it look like it was running beside us. So, that's how I'd say they make an individual see things...simply in a new "light". However I can only speak for myself, as I have only experienced my own trips. Commonly certian substances affect different people in different ways, some minor some major....hence the term "experience speaks for itself". As far as the difference between shrooms and acid. I'd say mushies are more of a thought trip (inner reflections etc...) whereas acid is more visual and wavey/vibey...like others said, a strong sense of connection is felt. That's not to say I haven't felt that with shrooms, just more so with acid. I've always felt mushies are more intense, but that can greatly depend on the setting, potency, amount and many other variables. Plus my stomach feels like a washing machine (psycobrin) with shrooms...it goes on and off, but really both are like roller coaster rides if you will. Acid usually lasts longer, and has multiple "peaks" I've noticed, whereas with shrooms there's usually a set time period where it's most intense.
