Title: Magic Mushrooms
Post by: on December 06, 2004, 05:57:50 PM
Anyone on here 'experienced' with them? It's just whenever I trip I HAVE to listen to The Beatles. It makes their songs so much more fun to listen to. A Day In The Life makes me cry, and some of them just make me so happy whilst tripping.

Anyway, anyone know what I'm on about?

I've had a few people try to get me to do them... I've been heavily debating it. I'm really not into drugs.

Can I direct you here?

www.shroomery.org

It's a great website with all the info you'll ever need to know about mushrooms, and has a really forum.

(I sound like they're paying me).

  8) Whereabouts in England? County?

I'm debating whether to do shrooms one night in May next year when my family are out of the country.

I've already decided on getting 1 oz of bud for my week at home alone. Are there any dodgy affects on mixing the two?

Ta, Jake.  :)

Post by: on December 06, 2004, 07:32:16 PM
A lot of people say that smoking weed greatly enhances the trip, so it should be ok. Like I said before, you should check out www.shroomery.org

Go to the forums, and if you have any questions or anything post away. :)

I'm from West Midlands by the way.
Title: Re: Magic Mushrooms
Post by: An Apple Beatle on December 06, 2004, 07:33:19 PM
 LOL. You guys!!! The bud will be good for the come down. If liberty caps, don't ever do more than 50.

I hope you mean 50 grams An Apple Beatle ;)

Not sure lol, was a long while ago. Done some legal mushy's at The Bestival this year. Not bad, bit edgy I found. It's always personal with mushy's. Get mixed up about the quantity wether it was in tea or eaten etc. Had a few rides when I was younger. My verdict 3 amazing journeys, 3 real BAD downers. Be careful!
Title: Re: Magic Mushrooms
Post by: on December 06, 2004, 07:53:15 PM
Yeah bad trips are not fun at all.

A good trip can be the best thing thats ever happened to you. Turn that upside down and you can see why bad trips are horrible.

I just started doing pot. My life went to sh*t and I found it an easy way to escape.

Be careful with that sh*t, psycedelic drugs are not that harmless you may think they are. I know a friend who decided to stay on forever after taking LSD. The Beatles music make you high just through it's quality. greetings, Klaus
Title: Re: Magic Mushrooms

Stay on what forever? LSD?

Magic mushrooms are not 'mess'. I suggest you try them and then you can say what you want about them.

Title: Re: Magic Mushrooms

Yes I think everyone should at least give it a try :) very fun indeed....
Title: Re: Magic Mushrooms
Post by: on December 15, 2004, 08:45:19 PM
I do smoke pot occasionally. But I go to College with people who like smoke it everyday, I dunno, maybe they were a little crazy before they started on it but I don't think so somehow.

I wouldn't recommend constant and prolonged use of the herb to be honest.

Do it in moderation if you're going to do it at all.
Title: Re: Magic Mushrooms
Post by: GroovinUpSlowly on December 16, 2004, 03:16:24 AM
Yes I agree, I do it for special occasions (holidays...birthdays... death dates of great ones...(Lennon, Harrison)) but yeah I recomend NOT doing it a whole lot.

I think someone drugs me in my sleep -- i'm always just...out there, y'know? XD It's fun.

o______o I do want to try it -- 'least once -- but just out of boredom/curiousity/the Beatles and all those 60's/70's bands influenced me, hah. But I don't really want to be a junkie and all that jazz. xD
Title: Re: Magic Mushrooms
Post by: Lenny Pane on December 25, 2004, 10:51:55 AM
well from my experience i would say DONT DO IT ! once u have taken either LSD or mushrooms your whole perspective on life completely changes from the moment you take them ...but in my case i have taken more LSD than mushies.. and like Apple Beatle said .. if your not in the right company or in the right environment then i definately would say a BIG NO ! but not everyone is the same as ive witnessed over the years ... well take Lennon.. look how he changed after taking LSD ..  it changes your whole way of thinking, and you become alot more aware and observant to whats going on around you .. and sometimes that can NOT be healthy .. and there is always that chance that you could end up having a bad one ... (TRIP) And when you hear people saying (EXAMPLE) that they have seen pink elephants or this that or the other ... its utter Bull*"^t .. the only way i could explain it is ... has anyone stayed awake for more that 24hours ?  if anyone has, your probably know wot im talking about ... when you think you see things moving out of the corner of your eye .. curtains start twitching .. and if you multiply that with a high % you get a TRIP.. and for some people who experience that and DONT like it ..you will probably end up having some sort of panic attack which leads to an unreasonable way of thinking ..which leads to a BAD TRIP ! therefore i would never encourage anyone to take LSD / liberty caps or even fly agaric mushrooms ..................

Post by: pc31 on December 25, 2004, 10:06:21 PM
if abused they can be worthless.my ancestors smoked a mixture of shrooms,datura plant and gypsom weed.the mixture called hallutionations but interpted correctly they help the populace avoid many a catastrophe.
they all used at sometime or another but only the medicine man,the shaman tripped regularly.
the shaman if favored by the people could have more power than a cheif.he considered it his duty to achieve visions on a constant basis.so as to help his people.
one such medicine man was so highly regarded that his people listen to him not the cheif and in the end he led his people to war against their oppressor.the man was geroimo.......
he had a vision that he died from sickness instead of a bullet so he was fearless in war.
after the indian wars he was arrested by the government and jailed in texas i believe and died on a march to florida while being transfered.
peyote is also an indian choice for visions.from the peyote comes organic acid called mescaline.
there is and always will be the arguement that without the strycnine the buzz would be better but stryc actually heightens the buzz.
their is a warrior right of passage when he goes off alone for an undetermined amout of time to persue his visions so that he knows his course in life.munching peyote buttons near the campfire included.
higher knowledge is experience it seems but if you don't learn from them they are a waste.

Exactly. I hate people who take these sort of drugs just to get 'f***ed up'.
Title: Re: Magic Mushrooms
Post by: pc31 on December 26, 2004, 12:00:34 AM
self revalation seems to be a main factor with most drug usage.it makes you look deep inside sometimes.it reveals truths.you just got to be able to handle them.like the van halen song says i've been to the edge and there i stood and looked down...you know i lost a lot of friends there.i can relate.the older you get the more you can relate to in that area.
i have the impression from most my years that heroin is the most euphoric drug in usage.opiate use predates all other drugs.the monguls ate poppies b4 battles to sharpen their warrior like senses.most would agree that it probally dulled them.either way an opiated person could lose a limb and be so wacked that they would continue to fight.opium is legal in some countries.it is based in the teachings of some of the most prolific chinamen that ever prophised such as jung and confusis(sp).it is involved in buddisms history.
seems drugs were always around but brow beaters say their use is deplorable then and now.i say make your own choice but don't use them when you are mental weak or they will either kill you or ruin you.
people are afraid generally speaking to openly admit to drug use due to admonishing peers,but like many other things you have freedom of choice.as a drug user myself i never glorify their use to anyone.i have 3 kids.i hope they never use drugs but they will,at least i will be able to tell them from personal experience about the dangers and the correct usage(?).
i suggest you not be so open to chatting about the useage of controlled substances on a public forum.remember big brother is always watching and dibo too.....

I wouldnt do them now, but I used to love mushrooms. I've never laughed so hard on anything compared to shrooms. I'd rather pop than drop. Acid just wasnt as fun.
