The Shroom Thread

I would submit that it's worth trying, as the experience is genuinely quite incredible. Someone has answered the duration question, but I'd suggest one or two things, should you give it a go:

Source at least 5 grams. Grind these five grams up (to homogenise the spread of active compounds across the ingested material). Fast for a day, and try a gram, making sure you are entirely clear of any other psychoactive substances, in order to establish a baseline.

Presuming average strength shrooms, a gram ought to get you just past threshold (hard to describe this state; it's energetic, your thoughts become incredibly organised and everything takes on a... glimmer). Closed-eye visuals are likely to be vague black and white geometric patterns, which you can kind of will in and out of existence.

You're going to feel a bit sick in the beginning, and also tired, but this passes.

Once you've established this approximate threshold, I personally enjoy 2.5 to 3 grams. Multicoloured 3-dimensional patterns cascading around in your head with your eyes closed, gentle morphing and pulsing of objects around you, everything looks somehow alive. Music becomes an almost transcendental experience. Laughing at the banal yet sometimes profound 'truths' this state of mind can bring to you. I've also just sat and cried through the experience, and not because I was sad or scared, quite the opposite.

In any event, the point is, there is much more control over dose, as compared to acid. I'd not want to push past the 5 gram barrier with mushrooms personally, as I don't think I'd do well with with a hectic experience, and it can get very very intense. That said, if I were to push any limits, I'd keep a sedative on hand. I know some people would see this as perhaps missing out on a learning experience (which might well be true), but each to their own, and I'd prefer an eject button, should it be needed.

Also, do it with people who are excellent and do it in a safe environment. I tripped once with someone who pulled a knife on me and then tried to secretly eat a further 20 grams of shrooms. That was not fun at all.
Shot, I'll take all that into consideration.
 
Had my first changa experience this weekend. After reading everything about DMT and changa I could find I thought I knew what to expect....I was so wrong. I came out of that pretty humbled I must say.

Take a 5 hour shroom trip and compress it into 12 minutes, that's the sort of intensity I experienced.

What's the difference between a shroom trip and a changa trip?
 
What's the difference between a shroom trip and a changa trip?

Only had 1 of both so far so I'll try explain my experiences.

Shroom trip. Onset is about 45 minutes, and duration about 5 hours.
Changa, onset is a few seconds and duration was about 12 minutes.

Shrooms, about an hour of strong closed eye visuals.
Changa, about 5 minutes of INTENSE closed eye visuals, also LOUD auditory hallucinations.

Shroom, more control of your body and sense of where you are.
Changa, could hardly get myself body to lie down, and lost sense of even having a body.

Shroom, long period of emotions and introspection with mild open eye'd hallucinations.
Changa, still a period after with open eye'd hallucinations, but only a few minutes.

With shrooms I briefly felt intense panic and fear, which is probably why I back peddled and didn't let go completely.
With changa the intensity of it and losing all control made me back peddle and open my eyes.
Definitely going to be trying again, and now I have an idea what to expect, try and let go.

Changa sounds interesting. Getting hold of it maybe not so much
 
Back with more trip reports!

Been trying KK's truffles, caps and Amazonians.

1 Truffle = ~2.5g
Very relaxed trip, even got some relatives on this one, they are now tripping regularly. The trip lasts longer but is less intense (lower peak definitely). Pretty sure it's because it's a truffle so the psilocybin gets absorbed slower. The truffles are very tasty, much better than the shots.

2 Truffles = ~5g
This was quite crazy. Ate the truffles around 9PM and went for a walk. Sat on swings and already started seeing things with my eyes closed. Being on a swing and tripping is crazy by the way, your mind doesn't understand the change in gravity xD. Went back home, listened to some IM on my Logitech Z906's, massive time distortion. The 10 min song felt like 40 mins. Went upstairs, sat in the hallway with headphones, listened to some more IM. This was the first time I felt like I experienced music. Crazy visuals, felt like I could touch them with my hands. The trip went downwards from thereon for me unfortunately (due to external factors), but nothing too hectic. It was not the substance, it was me.

5g Amazonians
Made some tea out of this. A french press works wonders. Will use less water next time though, the tea can be a bit much. Was about 30-40 mins before I started tripping hard. Closed eye hallucinations, open eye hallucinations. I completely let go and just listened to some C&K whilst lying flat on the carpet. I relived a couple of dreams, saw angels, understood a couple of things better. I think if you just want to let go and let your mind take you places this is a winner.

Cap = 2.5g-3g
Damn, what a surprise. This one hit a lot harder than I expected. Vivid hallucinations, fractals etc. Had this theory where I covered one eye with my hand but kept both open, completely transforms the way you look at the "real" world. Spent most of the trip discussing stuff with my roommate/best friend. For what you pay this pill has insane value, would defs recommend it to anyone looking for something heavier but not too hectic.

Up next I will try 2 caps and some NSS's. Will report again soon!

Which caps are these?
 
Has any one had a delivery lately fron avywahere , please pm

So much free time right now to try out a micro dose
 
Hi. I'm from Durban and suffering from depression. I'm looking for a guide to help me on my first trip. I have never taken magic mushrooms before but I have done alot of research on the benefits for depression. I don't have any contacts for getting the mushrooms and I wouldnt try taking it alone. Is there anyone in Durban who is an experienced guide? I dont mind paying.

As somebody with only 1 post on the forum you probably won't find a guide easily... You'll also have to wait until lockdown is over. I suggest you start with some microdose capsules in the mean time as those are easy to find.
