The Shroom Thread

Whole mushroom dried, that would be my personal choice. Capsules can work out to be more pricey, also seems more preferred amongst micro-dosers. So it may come down to what your intention is with regards to taking it.
 
I've used mushrooms quite a few times over the past couple of years.

A couple days ago, I dissolved my ego into a pretty little pile of universal glitter, for the first time.

It was quite something. Amazing substance.
You've post a lot about depression and meds etc in the past. How have shrooms helped with your state of mind and coping without other self medicating? Or has it just ended up being something else to do for entertainment?

They are incredible. Every time I have tripped, I've come out the other end having learned more about myself and about how to more appropriately deal with my laundry list of mental challenges.

Also, on a chemical level, I tend to find two to three weeks after a significant dose, it has a profound effect on my depression (which is what studies are starting to suggest is definitely a possible outcome).

Don't get me wrong though, it's fun, but not the primary reason why I would trip the vast majority of the time. And even when I do, I tend to have a bunch of revelations whether I was looking for them or not.

Yes it's pretty amazing. Good to hear the positive effect it's had for your depression. I've been 'microdosing' on and off between 0.2g to max 0.5g every week or so for a few months and then a couple of months off, and two 2g doses in the last year. I reckon I've had quite a shift in my perspective on what's important and also now rarely let my mind run away with negative thoughts.

I'm chuffed that this is the most 'sober' and pharmaceutical free I've been in over 10 years. I'm sure the shrooms have played a major part in that.
 
Agree with cubensis but would love to know strain. Caps and stalks are golden. Caps have a darker bit in the centre. Stalks are long and caps are small.
Although tough to visually compare. It does happen to share strong similarity to some 'natal super strength' I've seen.

Try any? If so; how be the potency? :)

The cat (and kid) was away over the weekend, so the mouse came out to play hence me asking this thread (now edited) where I could find some close by. Very naughty. The ones I got were said to be of higher than average potency.

I’ve only had shrooms about 8 times, the last being around 4 years ago. Dose was only about 1.7g, but they felt strong for a relatively small amount. The trip felt like something I’d experienced much more more recently than 4 years ago, which was perhaps a similar feeling to being very stoned from cannabis oil which I use often (or perhaps being very drunk, not that I drink much at all).

I had no visuals, perhaps due to the lower dose, and would say I felt it more in my body than I’ve felt before. Legs felt heavy. I was alone and it was quite late at night, so I didn’t get any ‘laggies’ as I didn’t have anyone to talk to.

Despite not being an overly strong trip, it was perfect for being alone and at night (took them at 20h15). Just enough introspection, and gratitude throughout. My thoughts remained grounded and I didn’t do any real travelling. Ended off the night on Discord at 02h00 with some friends while they played Dota, which was fun and a nice way to end off.

I have another 7g left and am hopeful my next larger dose will be more visual.

Why do people dry out the shrooms?

When I was in Amsterdam a good few years ago I bought some from a shop that came out of a fridge and were fresh like from a supermarket.
