it was only a 1/2 eighth of boomers but I they were quite strong. not sure if I could've handled a full eigth of the stuff, especially since i was forced to trip by myself since the kid i split the 1/8 with ditched me for to go chill w/ his girlfriend.  anyways, i just couldn't figure out how to use the computer for the life of me.  like, i'd try to type "erowid" into the address bar and end up typing a stream of thoughts instead.  and when i finally made it to erowid all the text was moving around and the screen itself was moving in 3d waves.  it was so ridiculous it snapped me out of my bad trip so i decided to go take a bong rip, take my dog for a walk, and then go to dinner with a bunch of other friends in some crazy mexican bar in downtown denver.

definitely trip outside, in nature, with friends. the only reason I was having a bad trip was because i was ditched and was thinking too much about it and  being inside was creeping me out for some reason.  like, i couldn't even look at blank, white walls, they just scared me. being outside felt so freeing.  luckily i've always had the ability to step back and realize i'm just tripping and can calm myself down.

One more important advice: Plan out your day!!! Shrooms is a bit like time traveling, you take some at 1:00 then when you come down from the high its like 6:00, when it only felt like an hour at most. So make sure that when you take them you don't have any appointments or plans for atleast 5 hours.

Also, having a friend to sorta guide you through it helps a lot. When i did my first shrooms trip my friend who is experinced with it did a smaller portion than me and helped to make sure that i didn't totally loose it and made sure that we kept walking around and have a good time.

i disagree with this. i like to look at tress and all of the tiny little parts that make up a forest ecosystem, because it truly is remarkable the amount of shit going on in nature. at night time you miss almost all of the small details. if your going to do it around night time start before the sun goes down, like four, then you can see everything in detail, watch a sunset, and see the stars.
and yes having a sitter wouldnt hurt, things can get weird but probably wont if you dont eat a shit load. just relax and dont fight it, if you feel your trip start to go bad just go somewhere else, i find a change in surroundings can change a whole trip. have a positive mindset, and just have fun!

my first time i did a 1/16th also, it was a good introduction into entheogens. You don't trip as much as you do experience that extreme euphoric state that is common with psylocibin

The first time I did them I was with 3 friends and then another kid who was just gonna hang out with us and make sure we didn't do anything stupid like stand in the middle of the road without realizing it.
it feels very lucid, everything is interesting too. walking through the forest and looking up at the trees and stars was amazing. basically I wandered around outside for hours, being inside wasn't as fun. it just so happened that my phone and laptop were both broken at the time so I didn't have anything to bother me.

oh, and being around people sucks a lot. being around other kids tripping or kids who know what it's like was fine, but groups of drunk college kids was awful. people in general actually. definitely not what you wanna deal with so try to avoid them. it was tolerable when I only had to walk past them on my way from outside back into my dorm, but having to spend time around them would be awful.

yes, definitely. I'm the kind of person who loves technology and new electronics to play with but it can be great to get rid of them for awhile. and who wants to spend time texting while tripping?

that reminds me, make sure you have several hours of free time with nothing planned and nothing that you need to do because you're definitely not getting much done nor do you want those things bothering or distracting you.

Don't listen to kids telling you to do half and eighth, anything less than 3 grams is a waste of money.

I'd say, buy 1/4th, it's more cost efficient to buy in bulk.
Then eat 2 grams to start, because you don't know how sensitive you are and you won't be as crazy out of it.  That way you have the option to do more later, or if you don't like it, then you can sell the rest.

Make a 6 hour playlist in advanced so you can have music to listen to without having to choose your music while you're tripping.

Nature's always good.

Set and setting are the most important things.

There's a ton of good info on it.

If you are within a couple hours of NYC I suggest going there. Some things to do while on mushrooms in New York.

1. Bronx Zoo or Central Park zoo

2. Central Park

3. Ride the subway

4. Times Square (lights never looked so good)

5. Relax by the Brooklyn Bridge and look at the River.

I did this recently and it was a very well spent 6 hours.

at night though, there is nothing else to bother you other than things that you want to look at. its so much quieter and then you can hear the wind. its fucking amazing. the stars always seem to reconfigure their selves on me too when im trippin, and they looks ten times more beautiful. I just thouhgt they were way more fun at night than at day time, because everything is show during the day from sunlight, theres always a little bit of mystery at night as to what is around the corner. makes it more interesting, and fun.

good idea with starting round 4 or so though. so oyu can decide for yourself which you like better.

did you read my post? i've barely tripped of 2 grams and i've tripped balls off exactly a half eigth. it's definitely not a waste of money anyways. let yourself get used to it. you don't want to dive into it and have it be more than you can handle since it's your 1st trip and you didn't know what to expect.
