Title: Bonnaroo Trip
Post by: Darwin on June 22, 2005 09:57 pm CDT: So, I went to Bonnaroo a couple weeks ago, mainly to see the Mars Volta. While there, I had some free time, so I bought some fungi. During my journey, I took some notes on the experience. Hope you guys find them entertaining:

Post by: Darwin on June 23, 2005 07:40 am CDT: I asked my friends to get me a notepad so I could write down my thoughts while I was tripping, koro.

have you ever done acid? if you have then you will know how acid has a body feeling....and really intense visuals.

well mushrooms is acid without the body feeling. and instead of having a tense feeling you have a everything is right and i understand what the world is about feeling. its a very good trip and i would say do that over acid.

and this "Veterans of mushrooms, I am sure, have a much better understanding of the universe I am sure. " is a very good quote to sum up what a mushroom trip or acid trip is like...

Post by: Darwin on June 23, 2005 11:54 am CDT: Mushrooms dont affect any part of the body, so you look like yourself while taking them. Everything you feel is all how your state of mind is. You can make anything you want, so long as you have a good imagination.

Don't have anyone scary around you. As you could see, my friend Jason turned into satan. He made fun of me as I took them, and it was scary when he'd talk to me because of that (this is because he has never done anything like shrooms before).

Be with kind people who cater to your every need. Good music, like Infected Mushroom, really enhances the experience.

Post by: Aphex on June 23, 2005 12:21 pm CDT: yeah havning good people around you are a must. its best to do them with people who are on them and have at least one person who is sober. to drive you around and take care of you.

it is all about your state of mind. you feel like yourself yeah but you do have insane visuals. but it also depends on how much you take. ive had times where i had zero visuals, just a calm feeling and other times where the world was completly different. that all depends on the dose.

for some people mushrooms can be a let down becuase they expect magical things to happen when they go into it. but often times end up taking too little or too much. you cant be scared to take them...you have to just let the trip happen. and you'll learn more things than you ever have before....

oh and it also helps if you stay in one type of environment. drastic change in your suroundings can be a big shock and could send you into a bad trip.

Post by: Darwin on June 23, 2005 01:09 pm CDT: Let me give an example how it is all in your head.

When it first began happening, I realized i could manifest images in my head into the real world. Looking at my car ceiling, I manifested a small flower out of the cloth. I knew it wasnt real, but I could pretend it was real. I took it in my hand. Realizing that these kinds of things were possible, I found that thinking bad things could turn it into a bad trip. I concentrated on my imaginary flower, and turned it evil. I quickly threw it away and promptly forgot about it.

Another example was my friend, Jason. He is the nicest guy I know, but his appearance was scary, especially because he had recently grown a goatee by not shaving that weekend. I grabbed a package of ramen noodles and asked him to hold it in front of his mouth so that he would not appear as frightening.
Title:
Post by: Aphex on June 23, 2005 03:06 pm CDT: yeah i know how it is. ive done hallucinogens many times (not anymore though) and the trip is different for everyone. you can only generalize it on a broad scale.

Post by: KoRo on June 23, 2005 04:24 pm CDT: I feel sorry for you all

that's a pretty closed minded and one sided thing to say.

im sure you do stuff that's bad for you every single day. like drink soda, or eat fatty foods, or walk out side of a cross walk or drive over the speed limit...

everyone is different everyone makes different choices. that's what makes us human and that's what makes life life.....to each his own. if everyone realized that then the world would be a better place.

Post by: KoRo on June 23, 2005 11:36 pm CDT: The difference is, one type of damage is permanent, the other type you can work off. Brain cells dont regenerate. I'm done talking.
Title:
Post by: Darwin on June 24, 2005 12:16 am CDT: Heh, another benefit of using mushrooms. They dont kill braincells. In fact, you cant die from eating too many mushrooms. Unless, that is, you choke and die by eating too many too fast, just like a Big Mac.

A logical statement containing a documented fact is the one thing an ignorant anti-drug person cannot hear. Don't waste your time

While there, I had some free time, so I bought some fungi.

Not enough free time to go in search of cow malarkey eh?

Post by: Darwin on June 24, 2005 07:31 am CDT: I have work in the mornings, and my weekends are backed up because i woek early on a my house which a tree fell on. So, no, I cant findcow patties right now.

Post by: 12Stones on June 25, 2005 12:15 pm CDT: I get a body high from acid AND mushrooms.. except the acid body high sucks, and the mushroom high feels like my entire body is having an orgasm.

Also, you have to be careful with mushrooms and 'enlightenment' because even though while on them you feel like you have some epiphany and some vast knowledge is shown to you instantly, the mushrooms are altering the way you think. It's like giving you another way to reach a conclusion on a subject, even if that way isn't exactly sound or totally correct.. but when you're tripping, you don't see that. The key is deciphering and understanding the things you feel while you trip.. I really hate to use this as an example, but seeing as how I just watched the end of the first matrix on TV, I'll do it anyways. It's the same concept as the oracle.. she told them what they needed to hear in order to learn the real truth for themselves. Mushrooms are a guide.. not a map.

"And this pad sure is a long way from my face." -lmao

Great idea to write down your thoughts while you were tripping.. it really really really makes first trips a lot easier to handle because when you write, you aren't fighting the trip, but you are letting your mind and imagination go. I always have a pad and pen when i'm tripsitting for a first timer.
Title:
Post by: Aphex on June 26, 2005 12:06 am CDT: tripsitting. i may be the only person who enjoys doing drugs, but does not enjoy being around people who are on drugs. i could never watch someone trip. it kind of digusts me. i dont know why. even if i see it in a movie.

Post by: Particle on June 26, 2005 10:39 am CDT: Drugs aren't known well enough by man for me to consider it. It may or may not be wrong, but I choose to do without. Along with those others who don't consume strong narcotics, I expect to be respected for that decision just as I won't condemn (and neither should the others) you for using drugs. All I have to say is be careful--it's not as well documented about dosage, effect, and problems that arise as something like acetaminophen. Despite existing study, science changes its "absolute truths" every other week.

You folks can talk about it all you want, and it is very interesting indeed. Just don't delve into the specifics of obtaining or administering those illicit compounds.

i respect anyone who respects others. its a give and take thing. people who dont automaticaly jump on someone else for their choices and such.

and yeah if you're smart about it you wont talk about getting them or taking them. plus for people like adam and myself its just basically about educating people on the effects, the other stuff doesnt matter.

with all that said i havnt done a single drug in over a year now....so yeah. i dont want people to get the wrong idea.
Title:
Post by: Darwin on June 26, 2005 07:47 pm CDT: I have followed that same way, and respected peoples decisions on whether or not to do drugs, so long as they arent wasting or ruining other people's lives.

For years I was the only person in my group not to try drugs. I am certainly glad I had this experience and would like to try it again someday.

Check out the video of this guy tripping off of 3 hits of 10X Salvia extract.

Post by: Taurik on June 26, 2005 11:32 pm CDT: I bought some dried salvia leaves and 10X extract at a local headshop awhile ago. People are calling it "the new DMT." If it wasn't for the short duration, I wouldn't even be considering trying it... scary stuff

Post by: Newbie on June 27, 2005 12:56 am CDT: I know this is kind of off topic.. but does anyone know of any tutorials or methods on how to improve visionary imagination? See, my visionary imagination is very limited and fuzzy, I never experience vivid imagery while dreaming, tripping, or even sober.. is this normal?

everyone is different. for me it goes in long stretches. i wont dream for weeks or even months and then a few days in a row have tons of amazing vivid dreams.

for me what has helped is meditation. i dont do it much anymore. i live in a small house with a dog and a few cats that always mess me up and i have no where to be alone. but yeah. sitting down and just letting your mind wonder. you can find plenty of book on meditaion at books stores such as borders. just look in the pegan type section. you can also try to find books on astral projection. but that's a little advance to consider if you cant even have vivid dreams. but yeah. meditation would be the first step, i would think towards fixing that.

Post by: Newbie on June 27, 2005 08:03 am CDT: Yeah, I'm starting meditating.. it lets my imagination run wild, but see.. my visuals aren't very vivid. Even if I'm trying visually to reconstruct what my house looks like in my own mind.. it's very fuzzy and lacks detail even though I've seen it for years and know what it looks like.

Iv'e done 5x, 10x, 20x, and 40x.. salvia definately provides one of the most unique trips Iv'e ever experienced. You will be freaked out the first time you do it (if you break through the threshhold), and what you do from there is what seperates those who like salvia from those who don't. I definately recommend that you try it!
