How to have a good trip on shrooms.?

I'm probably doing shrooms on friday. I plan on doing it with two other friends. I smoke weed and that is the only drug I've ever done. I wan't to try shrooms because it sounds like it could be fun. How can I have a good trip and avoid a bad one. Also, are you functionable on shrooms like talking to people and stuff. Also, I plan on eating a small amount so how long do you think the trip will last. Just give me some feedback on taking shrooms.

    First of all, magic mushrooms do not cause the brain to bleed, that is one of the saddest things I've heard our humanly culture ignorantly believe. In truth magic mushrooms are some of the safest substances you could ever ingest, and they evoke a profound expansion of the experience of perception and reality.

    In actuality it is quite hard to have a bad trip if you know what you are doing with psychedelics. You've probably heard the phrase "set and setting," but there are two additional guidelines which I will explain further.

    SET: the guideline that states you should be happy with who you are and be in a positive mood when taking magic mushrooms. They tend to expand the intricacy of emotions the likes of which you have never experienced, so having happiness, excitement, and complacency extended in dimension is quite obviously better than depression or fear.

    SETTING: this is less and less essential as you grow more experienced and intelligent with being able to handle the psychedelic experience, and in fact, as you grow fonder and more aware of the experience this guideline becomes less reasonable even. It states that you should be in a comfortable and familiar place to you with comforting and trustworthy friends. The term familiar gets put on the back burner after awhile, because if you are happy with yourself and personality than you obviously can find comfort in a range of unfamiliarity the same as familiar environments. Plus, if you are in a new place of comfort, the novelty that naturally coincides with this will be existentially augmented under the influence of the mind. The idea that friends are necessary is also sort of a fallacy. They are inherently better if you are new to psychedelics, though they can be inhibitory if they do not know how to be around a tripper; they may even annoy or restrict you out of their own fear of your health, when in reality nothing is going wrong at all. For example, if they do not know that a person tripping needs to be able to walk around an experience the world anew and they try restricting your movement because they think you'll get lost, this is going to be excruciatingly aggravating.

    SENSITIVITY: magic mushrooms and other psychedelics exhibit such an expansive range of profound psychological, perceptual, and emotional effects that any user should know what the roots of these are in order to dissociate themselves from a genetic and primal fear of the unknown. If you know these effects, when they are likely to occur during the experience, and at what doses they are most likely to arise from, any chance of being caught off-guard is obliterated.

    SCIENCE: This again goes back to trying to rid yourself of any fear of the unknown. You should most definitely know how safe magic mushrooms really are for the body and the mind. Physically these mushrooms are less toxic than aspirin and vitamin c. There is almost no risk mentally either, besides a bad trip. Psychosis has been shown only by extremely faulted research with technologically limited mindset and apparatus in the 40s, 50s, 60s, and early 70s. There has been no viable relationship between psychedelics and psychosis ever made.

    In terms of functionality, magic mushrooms actually generates a hyperaware of the environment. You sense your surroundings and scenarios with implicit ease and you can definitely understand how to act in these environments because it is written in your genetics, and it easier to identify this with more experience among the psychedelic world.

    I would recommend taking around two grams for a first time. This dose will probably last about five to six hours until you feel completely normal.

    Will last 6-8 hours.

    You need to be in a safe secure location really. People can tell when your high on shrooms, and being high on shrooms can make you very emotionally sensitive. Hopefully you guys have a house that will be empty all day that you can hang out at. If not, I would consider waiting. Getting yelled out for being high while on shrooms will seriously ruin your trip.

    Look forward to it. Studies have shown that shrooms actually have long term beneficial effects for people who do them. They make you more creative and open. It will indeed be a life changing experience. Everyone should do shrooms at least once.

    What I learned from Shrooms was, is that we have an extremely narrow idea of what we consider consciousness. There are so many different ways a conscious being can see the world, and shrooms will allow you to see the world through a brain so modified that its as if youre a different species. I like to make the analogy of light, we see visible light but it is so horribly narrow, its the same with our consciousness, we are looking at the world through a very narrow lens. Being on shrooms is like seeing the world through an entirely different wavelength of light, but instead its a kind of different wavelength of consciousness.

    Be safe, avoid public places, and avoid people who will disapprove of shrooms. Also, dont overdo it, I took maybe a half dose when I did it, got no major hallucinations, just moving shapes and such. The more you do the prone you are to end up running naked through the street and getting arrested (this happened to one of my friends). Also avoid smoking weed once it kicks in (this is what my friend did when he ended up naked), you can perhaps smoke a little while you wait because it'll take about an hour to start.

    Shrooms are a natural way to "trip." good on ya to not do synthetic chemicals like acid.

    Bad trips are mostly caused by the state of mind you were in before taking them. It's not like weed, where it doesn't matter if you're pissed off or giggly, you're gonna feel good.

    With shrooms, if you're depressed and pissed off and you take them, you're gonna be seeing some crazy and scary ****. Just keep a postive mind and DON'T THINK ABOUT BAD TRIPS.

    The level of communication you have depends on how much you take. You eat one or two little shrooms or a few caps, you'll pretty much be functional, you'll just see some weird things now and again and you might pick up on sounds you've never experienced before.

    I don't recommend taking a lot the first time, because things can get scary when you're seeing mini purple horses flying over clouds xD and if you freak out about it, you'll get a bad trip.

    Also, avoid doing them at night because shadows are very scary on shrooms.

    Source(s): Good luck!! (:

    Ahh yes. I recommend you watch one of the new episodes of family guy. The one about seashells. Brian starts tripping balls. Not only that though, shrooms like make your brain bleed. Anyway, talking from personal experience, if you don't get f*cked by the law, you will get f*cked by a gorilla.

    Grow up. Drugs are ridiculous and immature. It's not fun...it messes you up. Don't become another person on welfare who I pay for because you made poor choices in your youth.
