shrooming for the first time. suggestions etc.

Hey all. Well, I'm planning on taking shrooms with a few friends for the first time sometime in the next couple weeks. The friends I'll be doing it with have done shrooms atleast a few times before. It's a possiblilty I might do them on halloween too..it all depends. Anyway, what would be a good dose for the first time and what is a good way to take them? Just eat em straight or in food/drink? The only drugs I have done are weed and alcohol. I've done some research on shrooms, and I've decided that I need to atleast experience this once in my life, but I obviously don't want a bad trip. I'm the type of person who likes to think "it's all in my head", so I don't want to be overwhelmed or anything. Also is doing them on halloween for my first time a bad idea? I'm going to a friend's halloween party that night too, and if we do them then, I might be alittle freaked out because it'll be at night with a lot of people. Also is it recommended to smoke or drink before taking shrooms? any other tips would be great. thanks!

I would suggest 1g.
You should be fine doing it on halloween. Just be arround good friends.
You can smoke a j before you eat the shrooms, but if you smoke it after you eat them, the trip will be more intence.

 

WARNING: You should never mix shrooms and alcohol, it is very dangerous!

Smoking a j is ok while you're shrooming, but don't do it if you're freaking out because it will massively potentiate your trip.

Also, if you only want some minor visuals and don't want to trip hard or feel like you could lose control, I agree that 1g would be a good dose. If the trip's not hard enough for you, you can smoke some weed and it will get much better.

 

oh alright..cool. Well most people have been saying that half of 1/8 is a good start..which I guess is 1.75 grams. But I think I will just go with 1g just to get my feet wet, and I'll smoke if needed. Also, if 1g isn't enough for me when I wait like an hour would taking another g be a bad thing? thanks for the responses.

 

No, taking incremental doses would not be a bad idea at all. Remember, you can always take more, but you can't undo what you have taken without resorting to extreme measures.

Also, while it is important that you approach any drugs with caution and responsibility, it is also important that you do not fear it. Even if you trip harder than you were intending to, you just need to stay cool and enjoy the trip. The more you panic, the worse the trip gets, and the worse it gets, the more you panic. Relaxing and feeling safe will help you have a great trip!

 

ok cool! I'm generally a very laid back person and I'm not a very nervous or up tight person so relaxing shouldnt be a problem, just gotta make sure the atmosphere is right! thanks

 

If its your first time, i would suggest to put yourself in an environment where your totally comfortable, like your house or a friends. And dont be around a bunch of strangers if you can help it. im just going by how i felt the first time i did it. And you should probably get yourself some orange juice

 

i did 1.75 my first time
i just ate them, they tasted like old stale crackers
washed it down with a small bottle of orange juice
i didn't feel like i did enough so i smoked weed and it got better
my mind wasn't thinking completely normal until after i had a night's sleep

 

ah ok. Well I think I can handle 2g for my first time honestly. I don't really just want to be high, would kinda like to actually be tripping, lol. I heard that taking anything less than half of 1/8 isn't going to do much. But yeah taking more than 2g wouldn't be good for my first time I think.

 

I disagree partly, With shrooms you build a tolerence very fast, So if you were to take 4g over 4 hours it will be less intence than taking it all at once.


If you do plan to ease your way into shrooms (by far the best way) then take 1.5g then 3days later or more take 2g or however much you think will get you to were you want to go. Just take it slow. On the other hand you can take a standerd dose of 3.5g and risk having the worst time of your life ever< but if you have a good setting and friends that will be very rare expecaly if you have a good mind set.

yeah...I deffinately do not want to have the worst time of my life..haha but yeah I think doing 1.5-2g should be good for my first time, and I'll see how I handle that and go from there.
