Dangers of shrooms?

maybe you should try some fresh shrooms. ive never minded the taste. i do enjoy the tea, because more than 8th eaten makes me a little nauseous.


even dried always tasted like peanuts, it really depends on the strain and how they are grown that is taste. i get mine from the same person and he had a batch that tasted like cheerios. those ones were awesome.

that's hella sick, i've found a way to get rid of the taste if you are just going to chomp them down, eat it with pizza. The oil covers it perfectly. But I do like the tea better

god i absolutely love boomers! like every1 else said... if someone is selling them they are probably of no harm and far from a hard drug.... crack and heroin are a hard drug. i consider hard drugs anything that is a man made substance

What about people selling deathcap mushrooms? or aminita muscaria ( fly agaric ) Those are pretty fucking hard and beat the shit out of you give you comedowns, make people distgustingly sick and yeah well you know that shit isint hard. Also what about cyanide producing flowers and shit not man made stuff but its still hard drugs. Drugs are just chemicals that change state of consciousness and things. Hard drugs for me is just the shit when im not 100 percent sure what im getting, im not hundred percent sure what i got, im not hundred percent sure if its gonna get make me happy and as it happens 9 times out of 10 its man made shit.

peace brother sorry if that sounded bit harsh man. I cant convey my shit over the net so well.

I KNOW WHICH ONE I TRUST

it hurts the liver bad prob like a week in mexico drinking but other then that if ur strong minded and know that a trip is just a trip and it will be over in about 6 hours ull have a great time it so fun

Do not study magic mushrooms for getting "fucked up".

The are intesenly spiritual, and can show you great things that WILL change your life.

I tell people time and time again: Mushrooms are not a "drug". They are an avenue for exploring your Self.

Like many of these "drugs" that change your perception, your mood and surroundings will affect you.

Paul Stamets, a very popular mycologist, explains his study sessions. He #1 recommandation is to move around, and not be chair bound. Chair bound happens because of the magnificance of the journey.

I repeat: do not study mushrooms to get fucked up.

muscaria is not the deathcap. thats thalloides or pathera (sp) species.

Muscaria can be consumed with no psychoactive implications if par-boiled first. I have tried them several times when picked in the wild, and are dramatically different from cubensis and similar mushrooms. They are not for recreational use and are not as fun. More for ritual... and for large groups of people who want to have a communal adventure.

Paul Stamets is brilliant, i find the spirituallity just comes with mushrooms though, i do it ( i dont trp hard ) but i do it to bond with my loved ones and my friends, my assosciates. I use it to just enjoy and have fun with my closest assosciates. Its a great thing to do once in a while and truly enlightens and strengthens bonds. Its a drug man it has to be taken seriously and with concern to yourself and others, your mood and your health!

Yup i know definetly not as fun, but are sold pretty openly and i think they are pretty hard! if you boil cubensis mushrooms they are no longer psychoative the psilicin or whatever goes away, they can be consumed without psycho-active implication, doesnt meean much.

Shrooms aren't physically bad for you. But they can have pretty powerful effects. If you do shrooms, make sure that you are happy. Do them in a comfortable setting where you feel relaxed. If you don't, you could have a really bad trip and start freaking out. Do it with a friend, so they can calm you down. If you're sad, don't do them. They can give you a really, really bad trip if you're sad.

growwwwww: I just did a undergrad thesis on mushrooms and I really have a problem with people associating mushrooms as a hard drug. If people just understood more about them then they would come to realize that if you don't want to trip on them, you don't have to.... But I guess the problem is compounded when you have mediocre "fly agaric" sold on the net openly.

Still, the stigma with mushrooms is pretty engrained in many people's minds.... like Paul Stamets says, once you mention mushrooms people think of portobello or magics and their eyes glaze over and they think you're crazy.....

now aint that the truth. The first time i tried mushrooms (doing about a gram) it was amazing. My arms and chest felt weird, felt a little cold, and i felt pretty good.

The second time (doing an eighth - 3.5 grams) it kicked me in the ass. I was just wanting fun instead of respecting it and it was fun for the first couple hours. I was seeing things move, pretty cold, very euphoric, etc but then i tried fighting it off because i was hungry (its hard for me to eat on shrooms) and after i ate, the nausea blew up and i was sitting in a corner in the fetal position for like 2 hours trying to convince myself it was the mushrooms and not to kill myself because the "bad feelings" will pass. eventually they did and i felt good.

mushrooms are, like you said, not well understood by most but if they took the time to see they are ok, more people will be less hostile about them

But it is npot so much bad feelings as an undeniable realisation of some bad truths....



How do you like my latest baby?

.....why is there only one?

yup your right completely, and paul stamets is so true, its all about education and yeah. +rep btw in the UK fly agaric is sold in the front of most stores in camden ( a part of london where there is lots of headshops ) literally loads of it in packets, in hundreds of shops its openly sold, its crazy.

peace

lol! Prom queen!

I've been thinking about cultivating some fly aragic once I've found a few specimens with unbroken caps around here.

Good luck with that... I'm not sure if you can actualy cultivate those as they coexist with certain trees, I think it has something to do with shareing bacteria...
