I’m doing 5g of mushrooms tomorrow in silent darkness for the first time. I have no idea what to expect as I’ve never done it this way, my last dose was 4.5g and I handled it really well and had a beautiful experience out in nature. Also, planning on vaping some DMT powder in the coming weeks and going on my first major trip for the first time.

    Did a bunch of acid for a while, and that had a pretty profound effect on how I perceived the world.

    But the most profound was a DMT trip that made me stop being an atheist.

      The best analogy I’ve seen is that shrooms is like a road trip. You’re gonna be on it for a while, but you can stop and take breaks to enjoy the scenery while you travel.

      Acid is like taking a flight. You’ll get there, but you basically just buckle up and wait for the ride to be over. You can wander around the cabin a little, but you’re basically just along for the ride.

      …DMT is like being ratchet-strapped to the nose cone of a rocket with a loose tail fin. You’re going somewhere fast, but your destination is at the mercy of the gods.

        That makes me want to try shrooms and avoid dmt lol. And yeah it’s exactly my experience with acid. You do your pre flight checks before starting because once you’re on the plane you’re fucking committed. It also fits because every time you do it you wonder if it’s really supposed to take this long between getting on the plane and actually starting flying.

        I like this analogy, because also with DMT if you aim slightly higher with the rocket you end up billions of miles further than you expected

        Shrooms never worked for me, but that tracks for the other two. I got a bit better over time of finding new fun things in the cabin, but I generally stayed indoors and did a lot of environment prep.
