Age to Trip

but a lot of times it can also change you in a better way

 

Yeah, but usually not your first time at the emotionally immature age of 14 on 7 grams of any decent mushrooms. In this case more chance for a serious mind fuck that never completely goes away.

Bad trips can be very educational, if you are experienced with psychedelics and emotionally mature and strong enough to integrate it into your life.

 

7 grams for the first time

 

yeah i know, in my opinion, 1/8 is the perfect dose for a first time, none less, or more :]

 

I mean basically, You can't have any negative feelings before any trip if you do psychadelics. You have to be looking forward to the trip. Have a relaxed environment. Unless experienced then you can party at raves and stuff when you know how to seperate fact from fantasy.

 

that's not even true i don't think, you can have negative feelings before a trip. sometimes when i'm feeling bad about something, a trip is a great way to come to terms with it and to recognize that no matter what, everything temporary will pass and i'll still be here.

but it sounds like your friend is asking for problems and is even inviting them. that definitely isn't healthy.

 

Your an idiot, comparing shrooms to a bag of feathers. a bad trip could be devastating to a 14 year old.

Id say when you dont have to ask others if you're ready, you're ready. thats how i decided, but i tried them first when i was 16 if that helps

 

You seem very mature for 14, and if you have done your homework and are determined to try them, then I think you should. Start with a low dose. I'd recommend the 2-3 dried gram range. Anything lower and you might not get much effect. It all depends on body size though. I'm 5'6 and for me 2 grams was a good place to start, but 5 grams was more than I could stand. That's why it's always a good idea to weigh the dose out beforehand.

Keep in mind, legitimate stropharia cubensis mushrooms are not physically dangerous. However you need to be ready for a profound expansion of consciousness. These things are sacred, and should be treated as such. They dissolve what is vaguely understood in our society as "ego", and you have to be prepared to lose a part of yourself to gain a glimpse of the raw mystery.

Take them with someone you love and trust. Try to spend a little time in nature if you can. Music completely sets the mood so choose wisely. And... close your eyes!

Good luck!

 

it all depends on how old you are mentally; psychedelics are not something to be taken lightly. their tools and as with any other tool using them incorrectly can have detrimental effects, only this will be on your psyche. dont do it because their "hardcore" or you wanna say youve done mushrooms, that is absolutely wrong and you shud respect psychedelics more than that.

 

Eat half of those yourself. If he wants to eat a whole quarter, sit down and watch him do it. I doubt he will be able to eat the whole thing, he will be faced before the 5 gram mark.

 

I wouldnt wanna be around an emotionally unstable person eating a quarter their first time. thats literally the dumbest thing ive heard ever. thats having no respect for mushrooms and its gonna bit him in the ass, hard

 

i talked sense into him but he bitched out. i look forward to trip some day when im ready, but im not looking for it right now

 

When youre ready? How will you ever know when youre ready? No matter how many times someone asks you "you think your ready for this man" there is no answer you can give without having any personal experience what so ever. There is no appropriate age to trip. None of us know you better than you do, so just take a dose, see how it is, and if you dont like it, than dont do it again. Remember, you can never ingest less of a substance.

I was 14 when i first ate the sacred fungi. It was well, to say the least, a very intense uncomfortable and divine experience, which made me see a whole new view of us and creation. I will truly say i was not ready for it and it took me about a year to fully integrate the power of the experience. Thats why i think only he can really decide if he's ready

 

I agree with energyofinfinity. Only you can decide when you are ready. Trust your intuition. I tried mushrooms when I was 15, and I truly believe it was the best decision I've ever made. Many people have expressed how stupid they thought this was, but I know that I made the right decision for me. My main advice is this: if you hope to come out the same as you went in, I wouldn't try them yet. You must be ready to completely surrender and be open to anything that your thrown into.

Either way I would support your decision:cheers2:

 

to me, shrooms havent really changed me as a person, but they did change the way i look at things, and how things work :]

 

I have seen, that the powerful experience of the sacred fungi never really changes who i am but the perception i have. My growth has never truly come just from the experience itself, it has always come (and in aw-inspiring amounts) in my sobriety and the strong connection with the unknown infinity grows stronger the more i focus on the lessons of my experience.

 

I tried them when I was 15 or 16 i dont remember, I was overwhelmed... I would recommend you wait a few more years and start with 2g's of mushrooms when ur ready.
