Mushrooms alone vs. with friends.

Recently I have decided I would like to take mushrooms by myself. I have only taken them once before and it was about a year and a half ago with my boyfriend and his best friend. It was the best night I can remember. The world was so magical and I felt this insane connection to my boyfriend and the world. My boyfriend has taken a lot of mushrooms in his life, and all except that one time were before I started dating him. Now he has moved on to other things (RC's) which I have also tried. But I have not liked anything as much as mushrooms. I am thinking I would like to try taking mushrooms by myself and see how different that is for me. Though I would like to have my boyfriend "on call" as well as possibly my best friend. He said he's totally down for that. It might be sort of scary to be by myself tripping.

Anyway, I'm not necessarily looking for advice, though I am open to it. But mostly I just want to hear about others experiences.

Have you taken mushrooms alone and with friends? Which do you prefer? Which did you get more out of? Is it ever scary for you to trip by yourself?

 

sometimes i like it better tripping alone and i get a lot more enlightened than when im around friends

sometimes i freak the fuck out because everythings telling me to kill myself and nobodys around to tell me otherwise, i guess you could call that a bad trip

 

if you know yourself then you know what to expect. if you dont then its a good oppurtunity to connect.

tripping alone is great.

 

If your comfortable with yourself then there should be no problem...just make sure to put away the scissors :leaving:

 

Not much to talk about, just try it with friends, try it by yourself, and in the future you will know which way is better depending on what you are in the mood for.

 

hahaha.

 

i've found that shrooms make me ask questions more, and questions are better dealt with friends rather than with yourself.
acid is better for tripping alone, but the difference with shrooms and acid is different with peeps, so ya it pretty much depends on you

 

I would try it and see how it is for you. I enjoy shrooms much more alone because I feel like i know myself and fear nothing i could possibly discover while on a trip.

 

sometimes other people can distract you from doing some inner work that the mushroom can facilitate. Its really really good to have at least 1 trip alone every now and then to sort through your mind.

A mushroom trip alone can be so deep, spiritual, sensual, fun and a magical time. I personally like to take mushrooms outside alone, somewhere very secluded. I at least bring my ipod for music incase things get really intense, music always calms me down.

But if it is your first time alone, you would probably want to do it at home or somehwhere you feel comfortable so your BF can be on call easier. Mushrooms are one of my favorite drugs to do alone because it is so spiritual. You learn and figure so much out about yourself, and it is usually always a life changing experience if you dose enough to get a full trip experience. I would reccomend dosing at least 3-3.5 grams.

I hope you have a bunch of fun

 

I prefer to be with friends when I trip, and just go off by myself if I feel like I need to. it's comforting to me to have people around, but they don't necessarily have to be directly involved all the time.

 

I only eat mushrooms with my enemies

 

i only eat them with anemones.

 

I only eat them with enemas...wait what?

 

with friends, its a blast !
Alone, it takes a completely new edge to it

 

HAha

 

ive only taken shrooms once, but when i took them i was with friends, and i definitely liked being with other people... i feel like it would be uncomfortable if i was alone cause i just have such a close connection with people when i'm on shrooms... idk thats just my opinion.

i have tripped on other drugs alone and that doesnt really bother me, but i feel like shrooms just had such an emotional effect on me

 

Alone = learn about yourself...change your life

with friends = trip ballz, have a good time...maybe you will have some cool insights

The odd thing is that changes never seem to stick with me on mushrooms anyway...I just wake up the next day like "whoa, wtf, that was crazy. i guess everything is normal again..." and I am just a little more relaxed

 

Alone is a whole different world. Its just you and the trip. You'll be really concentrated on the trip, and you'll have to connect with yourself because there will be no one else to connect with.

This is when you actually learn stuff from tripping. When you alone, you just keep going deeper and deeper and deeper into yourself. It is an amazing discovery, so be ready for the exploration!

Id say for the best experience, make sure to be really aware that day, and try being real humble. Eat light healty food, save your energy, don't have wild sex all day, don't get burnt out from pot or something, don't drink, just get into a fight with someone.

Just have a humble good day and try to do something before hand to connect with yourself. Maybe write in a journal, or on here, or dance, or sing! Happy Trails and best of luck!

 

Thank you all for your responses. I definitely have been considering taking them alone for some time now, but after reading all these posts, I am more confident about it.
