I recently got shrooms (Jedi Mindfuck) for the first time only to learn they were on the low end of potency. I tried one with almost no noticeable effects. A friend told me to try more than one and to blend it and at it to a peanut butter sandwich. So I did 4 shrooms. I'll let you guys know later how it went.

Something I forgot to mention is that I'm at work. Its pretty relaxed and chill place though. This trans gal is feeling pretty good right now.

accurate, this is a common mistake 😅

Oh heck ya! Always remember that the "bad" trips are the most healing if you focus on opening up to its connection with yourself.

During my bad trip I just thought I shit and pissed all over myself and tried to sleep on the kitchen floor since it would be easier to clean than the sofa.

[–] Zaphod@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 1 month ago

Can confirm. My last 3-4 trips or so all have been challenging in some way (not thoroughly bad) and I feel like they've changed me as much, if not more, than the 10 trips before that

[–] Arkhive@piefed.blahaj.zone 16 points 1 month ago

I like to steep mine into a tea! Always got the effects as intended like that. Have fun and stay safe my dear!

You should be weighing them, not basing it on the number of mushrooms

[–] AndyMFK@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 1 month ago

Weigh out a dosage, 3 grams is a standard dose, if you're at work you'd probably want to go lower, for a big night you could go a little higher.

Have fun, go with the flow, embrace the journey

Eagerly awaiting the update.

Felling good so far

[–] dandelion@lemmy.blahaj.zone 9 points 1 month ago

you can soak them in lemon juice (or any similar acid, really) to create a faster and harder come-up (it converts psilocybin into psilocin, which is what your stomach acid is doing anyway); if it's really low potency this help combine enough of a dose to punch you past "threshold"

Ngl at first glance I thought this was a cigarette ash sandwich

[–] Lodespawn@aussie.zone 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I was always told you need to eat a bunch because they tend to have a random amount of psylocibin, so a lot of the shrooms you eat will have not much, while others will have a lot. Kinda just need to eat a few see how you're feeling, then have a few more if you're not feeling anything and repeat til shit starts moving forward. Having good company that you can talk about how you're feeling with is pretty helpful.

That advice is bad advice given to people who pick their own and have a bunch of mowers mushrooms mixed in. Back when it was legal to buy fresh in the UK, I had very consistent results.

[–] ratel@mander.xyz 2 points 1 month ago

The reason for people saying that is individual ones are different sizes and the concentration does vary a little bit but less than the size variation. Grinding them into powder and making weighted potions achieves a lot more control over your dose and if you are getting into tracking how much you take this is very helpful. Never stopped me munching them dry outta bag on occasion though.

[–] Lodespawn@aussie.zone 2 points 1 month ago

The ones you get in Aus are typically picked fresh ..

Last time when I was trying and it was getting intense, I was on the verge of getting the fears that some nasty hallucinations were coming my way when all of s sudden I thought: I guess it would be alright, because everything is.

As soon as I had thought it I was overwhelmed by those banal words and tapped in to their inner meaning and my fear was gone, no matter what would be coming my way it would be what it is and nothing else, trying to resist or fear it would not change anything for the better.

Those words stuck with me and even though it's hard to apply it on ordinary life it has helped me a bunch. So whatever comes your way, it's just what it is and it is what you are experiencing. No more and no less, you're going to have to deal with it so don't resist it.

Best of luck.

Well, when you come back and read this I hope you had a good trip, since by now (2 hours later) you should be feeling it.

personal story

I don't do shroom since my only 3 trips were bad despite trying to get proper set/setting. I made the mistake of being on my phone and reading normal posts instead of focusing on like cute animals or literally anything intentionally positive... So after first trip, I decided my phone would be locked in my bag and turned off for future trips.

My last trip was a downward spiral of feeling bad that our wedding wasn't great since we couldn't afford much and it was mid-covid so roughly 80% of people didn't show up, and of those that did, most didn't stay beyond the ceremony.

I decided after 3 bad trips, I'm just okay with not trying again.

Hope you have a great ride! If you see the Sky Snake, tell her I said hi.

Let us know.

They may be a bit old and /or not preserved properly. They lose potency with time. Ideally try to consume them within a year from harvesting.

[–] sorrybookbroke@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

You need at least 2 and a half grams to have halucinations. 3 is usually where I go.

Never actually ground it up personally so no clue how much you have there. Looks kinda small though

Lastly, never liked mixing mush with anything. Straight up it tastes a bit earthy. It stays in something fatty for a bit and I only taste vomit

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

You need at least 2 and a half grams to have halucinations.

I don't think this is categorically true. Not only is everyone different, but potency can also vary.

I haven't done psychedelics in many years, but I definitely took between 1-2 grams in the past and def tripped (albeit not as intense).
