I'm planning to do half an eighth of mushrooms with a classmate of mine tomorrow. We are going to go on a nature walk through a local preservation. I've done LSD twice before. The first time i took just enough to get the body high and the trippy mindset but no more. The second time, I took a dose in sugar cube form and tripped alone all night. I had a wonderful if not intense time tripping by myself. I'm not too worried about freaking out. Both times on acid, I had a very keen sense of what thoughts to avoid and how to not focus on bad thoughts. What I'm wondering is, what's the difference between shrooms and LSD?
you could easily search for this topic and find 10s or 100s of thread covering this exact question. i find shrooms to be much more of an "intoxicated" feeling than LSD. LSD makes me feel connected and in control, while mushrooms have made me feel sorta sloppy, but still very connected with nature. honestly, i haven't done shrooms in awhile and i have trouble comparing/contrasting different psychedelics. you sound pretty set on eating them, and sounds like a pretty good setting, so you will know after tomorrow
Shrooms are a bit more sedating, kind of dreamy. I usually notice more of a body trip with shrooms and more nausea as well but it's passing. Shrooms are an emotional experience but its not quite as unhinged and rapidly swaying as acid. However, its more common to fixate on negative thoughts with shrooms IME, its also quite common to laugh for hours on them. That's a great setting you have chose for shrooms but I'd make sure you have a spot you can sit/lay down at.
Sorry. I haven't quite figured out the mechanics of the website yet. I'm quite set on doing it yes. Tomorrow is going to be rainy here so I will try to take them on memorial day. Otherwise I'll save them.
Half an eighth? So like a gram and a half? That wont be much of a trip as far as visuals go. You might feel kinda groovy but probably not comparable to a solid dose of acid.
My hookup tells me the mushrooms are quite potent. They said they took a full eighth each and tripped harder than they wanted to. I'm definitely not prepared for a trip of that magnitude. I realize that normally a full eighth is a normal dose.
iv,e triped on all kinds of acid through the years and liked them all but i ate a whole eighth of shrooms and had to just go lay down by myself. idk
I find that 2 grams on a empty stomach to be plenty if you are going to be walking around.... You'll have a great body buzz and will get some great closed eye and open eye visuals , some auditory distortion all while every color is vibrant and amazing looking. A full 1/8 usually puts me into a immobile state where I just want to lay in one place and enjoy the visuals. If you are going to do a full eighth on a empty stomach I recommend knowing of a place along your walk where you can just plop down and watch the sparkly leaves flutter in the orange and pink trees and the rainbow clouds morphing into aliens riding unicorns because that might be all you will want to do.
I dont know where everyones getting this "sloppy" feeling from , but shrooms give me energy i went camping with some friends & split a half ounce, i was running in the rain, listening to the bull frogs & laughing my ass of nonstop, i loved everysecond of it, only visuals i ever got of shrooms was my door swirling, Enjoy your trip man & let us know which one you liked more.
Shrooms give me tons of energy at low doses but at higher doses I still have a ton of energy but the body high gets so great (humming and tingling in pure pleasure) that I don't want to move. I just recommend knowing some place to plop down just in case you want to lay in the grass.
From my point of view, me and my friends always view Shrooms as a baby and LSD as and Adult. Shrooms, its easy to get some decent visual going on, but your much more intune with nature and energy, lots of energy. You can also have a spiritual effect. LSD for me, was a lot more visuals, a lot more energy, and a lot more personal within/spiritual effect. Basically shrooms x 100. but more than that.
^^i would say that's pretty inaccurate. lsd isn't like shrooms X 100. it's like lsd. they are two different drugs with different effects.
You are obviously comparing a higher LSD dose to a low mushroom dose. I can assure you that a high mushroom dose is an experience not repeatable by LSD in any way.
I find Lucy to have more potential for recreation and Shrooms to be more spiritual, both have potential for mindfuck/ego softening. Lucy has a much cleaner bodyload whereas Shrooms will make you dig deep. Lucy tends to magnify everything, Shrooms leaves me inebriated until I go through an emotional clearing. Lucy tends to give me some body aches for a few days afterwards whereas Shrooms feels more healing to the body. both can also have a very nice afterglow. King and Queen imho.
With shrooms, more than acid(in my limited experience with acid), it's important to completely "let go" if shit's not going as nicely as you'd like. I've been stuck in a vast "internal landscape" trying to evade some bad thoughts because it's getting scary or uncomfortable, and it can get pretty intense.. acid is a lot more "free" and it's generally easier to kinda manoeuvre you're thoughts(or yourself) to put yourself somewhere happy again. I don't think it's that likely to happen on that dose, but it's something to bare in mind for future trips at any rate.
