My friend has trouble tripping sometims. I have dropped acid and ate mushrooms with him numerous times and everytime we have been on the same wavelength and had very intense psychedelic experiences. Tonight he ate 4 grams of mushrooms with some girl and she was on the same dose. He said she was very annoying and he barely noticed any effects. Last time I tripped with him, we both did an 8th of the same mushrooms and had a very enlightening trip. He has some psychological issues such as BPD, but he is experienced with the substances. Why doesnt he trip sometimes? Can set and setting affect a trip so much that it kills it? Thank you!
The simple answer is yes. Also, if these shrooms were of a different batch, their potency can vary wildly. But yeah, it makes a -huuuuuge- difference, set and setting. Probably his set was similar, but it sounds like his setting was completely antithetical to a psychedelic experience. "Liek, OH MAH GAWD! I am tripping BAWLZ LAWL~!" it might be hard to find peace with a person shouting this at you every few seconds
i find that i am only psychedelicly compatible with a few of my friends. when i trip with certain people the trips just aren't as deep or as enlightening.
I would like this topic to be elaborated on. Twice I have eaten mushrooms with friends and felt no effects. Same group of people both times, and I am 99% sure neither of them would fuck with me like that.
