I was telling my therapist that I wanna take shrooms only last evening. I have a bunch. They're legal here. My partner works on Sunday and I have the place to myself. Hope she doesn't get divorced. Lol.
I would recommend having someone around as a trip sitter for a first time.
I recommend having a friend trip with you together to affirm that what you're expeciencing matches what they're experiencing. I've taken a lot of psycadelics. For me, this is the way.
OK, so not your first time. I misread that.
I'm currently growing my first batch, they are unfortunately not legal here 😅 They're fantastic though. I've done shrooms twice in my life now and my depression and social anxiety are all but gone. I've got years of therapy under my belt too and without that the effect would surely not have been this noticeable but still. When you take them you never know what will happen. Most likely it will be amazing from start to finish but every now and then shrooms make you confront unpleasant things. Taking them was a way to prove to myself that I'm ready to confront my fears.
They just amplify what you're feeling. Not in a good headspace? Stay away. Wanna confront that headspace? Buckle up and GL.
Also I've found while you can't always directly control it the trip tends to follow your attention. At least in those stages where there still is a "you".
For sure, emergency cartoons can and should be deployed in event of any immediate danger.
Bad trips do happen. But huge breakthroughs are possible, as well. Go in not seeking anything specific and just see how it plays out.
I will say this though, if you feel a bad trip coming, you have to surrender to it. Surrender to the fact that you are tripping balls, and that it's is a finite experience, and that you'll be ok. You won't get in trouble, you won't become crazy, and if you do? Fuck it we ball.
I reckon this fella has looked into a mirror while tripping.
This is absolutely right though, surrendering is how you turn a bad trip into at least a learning experience and in turn, a still great trip. So what if a few demons come out
That's the best example. Depending on your headspace that can be a hilarious experience, like a child at a funhouse playing with distorting mirrors, or it can probably freak you tf out if you forget it's temporary and only an illusion.
It's one of those things that you better be willing to deal with lol, it really can go either way, but one thing is for sure, it's gonna get weird
Nah, I never got the mirror thing. Was tripping alone on my first ever trip. It was the realization that, hey, "this technically only lasts a few hours(8-12) so eventually it'll end lol" that brought me out of that potentially bad(is any trip truly bad lol) trip. Also, for anyone still reading this, cannabis can help as well.
If you're a regular user and it's a mellow strain. I'd try mixing it with a low dose first to gauge the synergy effects.
"Shrooms can't kill you, they can only convince you that they can."
With force of will you can change the trip, but that requires experience. I think this is why novices have bad trips. That and spending too long looking in the mirror both physically and metaphorically.
Or maybe people it's not great for weed themselves out. But I can't imagine anything better for everyone.
Why on Earth would you say you are doing something illegal out in public?
Have you ever listened to rap music?
I killed Darnell Simmons
I think so, why?
Username checks out
Cause this is the internet, where you can say whatever you want and nothing is real.
Dude, you will get banned or arrested!
They better pull up the whole comment in court
Wow I would never admit "recreational" drug use of any kind to any medical professional. Many years ago I admitted to smoking marijuana to my doctor and it turned into a major catastrophe. They threatened to report me to law enforcement for using illegal drugs and kept extorting me with bogus bills for months afterwards. I never trusted any medical professional again. Fuck the bible belt.
I admitted to my primary doctor that I used MDMA, acid, mushrooms, and ketamine within the past 3 months. He didn't even bat an eye, he was concerned of my drinking habits instead.
Ugh, wish my doc had been concerned about my drinking when it was a problem. Nope. I went in with insomnia problems, and explicitly told him I also have a drinking problem, and he prescribed the max dose of extended release Ambien with a casual "oh don't drink on this" as if I hadn't just told him I had a problem. I used to drink every day, he thought I'd magically stop because he prescribed something for me to take every day? NOPE. Surprised I didn't die from the alcohol + Ambien combo because I didn't realize how bad it truly was to mix those.
It’s just straight up illegal for medical professionals to report drug use in Canada. The government doesn’t want people to die because they were afraid to go to the hospital
That's straight up illegal here in the US too. I don't think OP was at a doctor lol
You'd think the government would want as many people as possible to die, considering how easy it is to get into MAIDS, and how hard it is to get actual healthcare instead.
Remember, almost every suicide was someone else's choice, someone who knew what the consequences were, but went with it anyway.
Nope. Always let your doctor know, medications you are taking could have extreme consequences when mixed with other drugs. They aren't the police, and they'd be breaking the law themselves to report that shit. Unless it's for a controlled substance, they have no duty or authorization to report that unless you explicitly give it to them. afaik, grain of salt and all that
I am pretty sure this is completely illegal
Yeah, that shit doesn't happen in Oakland, CA.
I suggest listening to some Terence Mckenna talks before tripping. Also, surrender to the shroom if needed. It'll help.
