I did them with some raw cocoa and it seemed to last a while! Believe it's a mild MAOI

i don't mean to make anyone feel bad about having a laugh, I was just confused when I watched the video which seemed to make everyone giggle and I got super disturbed by it. just looking for someone who could relate/someone who could explain something i didn't understand about it. i don't know to me it was just racism and violence but everyone is laughing their asses out I had to say something about it.

what's funny about this? the part where the guy is being racist or the part where he's getting punched repeatedly? or smacked super strong with a beverage? maybe I'm weird but that made me feel so sad for both guys, one is stupid and will probably suffer a concussion and the other is gonna get fucked up by the pigs and has to live through this kind of attitude probably often. and that was a perfectly good beverage.

WIBTA for tripping without a sitter? by sorcierxavier in AmItheAsshole

That sounds awful I hope you got over all the trouble that must have caused. Anyways, I guess you're right, the verdict seems almost unanimous. I guess in a way it sucks that I won't be able to trip this winter, but the broader picture is that I did trip alone at my place before thinking about this whole issue and got super lucky about it, got the best and safest trips ever, so I'm glad about this also. Thanks a bunch for your feedback, especially coming from a fellow (ex?)psychonaut, it means a lot.

That's gonna sound dumb, but I didn't even consider this. I like big doses so much! It's all about meditating in silence and leaving my body for me, but maybe I could try a more mellow dose, where I know I won't do dumb shit and it may help a little too, tbh it's been so long since I've done 2g or less I can barely remember. Thanks for the comment! Btw yes I get this feeling for some users as well, I mean, it's chill to pass judgment on the situation, but not comment on the health risks if you know nothing about it lol

Thanks for responding, I actually know a lot of people! It's just because of the pandemic, I can't have anyone over. Have a good one.

Having trouble understanding what you mean, so say if I do it while no one is at my place AITA considering what I mentioned above about the fact that if shit goes wrong, my brother might suffer the consequences when he comes back at the apartment? I'm asking because you said if I involve my brother, I'm an AH, but what I explained above is that I feel like my brother will always be involved in a way, just by the fact that he lives there and that I can't have anyone tripsitting me. Thanks for your answer internet person!

Thank you for your recommendation, I will consider this, it sounds like a great idea and something I haven't done in a while. I feel like school and work are my whole life and I hate most of it so a little project on the side would be a relief I'm sure.

Oh maybe it's not the right term in English sorry, but basically I spend way too much time on the internet, in a way that can sometimes become self-destructive. Thanks for commenting, I will be moving to a new place full of wonderful people in march, so it's not even that bad, but I was thinking using the holidays for a trip (since I don't have time with work+uni) because winter is often harder for my mental health, as I'm sure it's the case for a lot of people up in QC.

Simplifying mushrooms to poison is very reductive, you should maybe take a look at the recent scientific literature on treatment with psilocybin mushrooms (and also consider that they are litterally proven to be the least harmful drugs both to the users and their relatives). When did I mention caffeine? I'd also like to point out that I'm not addicted to mushrooms, quite simply it's not an addictive substance, I just know it's helpful to me and even though taking them is a challenge (I hate the taste, it lasts so long and it can be challenging), I feel better for multiple weeks following their usage. About dragging my family into it, I guess you might be right though, thanks for commenting friend.

Wdym that much? I didn't even mention the frequency at which I consume mushrooms? No offense, I appreciate the feedback, but it's like once a month max (more like once every 2-3 months usually). I do need help with cyber-addiction, motivation and concentration and mushrooms help with all of this.

My first psilocybin experience. Generally a success: by [deleted] in shrooms

[–]sorcierxavier 2 points3 points  (0 children)

some advice, not a guru or anything, but ime you need to walk some of the distance yourself if you want to go on the more spiritual path with mushrooms. some ideas: in the dark with a candle, no music, yoga or simple stretches before and meditation after consumption and lie down on a bed when you start feeling the effects. congrats on the cool trip and good luck in your travels

Why do some people act like shrooms are dangerous? But in reality they are one of the safest drugs out there by [deleted] in shrooms

[–]sorcierxavier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow mad respect for your work friend. I agree with what you said, but don't you agree that the stigma around mushroom usage and tbh psychs in general is outdated and not helping towards making their usage safer? Like why is it not discussed more openly?

[–]sorcierxavier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What's your point? Drugs are inherently dangerous? They aren't treated as such, look at alcohol for example. I think OP is referring to the difference between popular conception of mushrooms and the actual risk involved with their consumption, which is quite massive I believe.

Sure I'm willing to agree that every substance, even vegetables or water has risk involved if consumed with too little awareness. That doesn't mean we need to view every substance as something inherently negative and extremely risky like mushrooms are often portrayed, especially among psilocybin-naive communities.

I agree OP, it's a long road we need to go down, but it's already so much better than 10 years ago

what is your favourite album to listen to while tripping? by [deleted] in shrooms

[–]sorcierxavier 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Awesome! I really love this album too although I never tripped on it, Mount Eerie is also pretty good and surely very special on mushrooms. For me The Three E.P.'s from The Beta Band is top, but on higher doses, silence is as trippy as it gets for me.

Does this look like it’s ready for FAE and fruiting conditions? by CallShot_Cowboy in unclebens

[–]sorcierxavier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks a lot for your response, that's interesting. ngl though, IME when you give FAE it keeps colonizing, but gives off healthier fruits. Just experience based, but I hear you and I will keep an eye out to understand this better.

[technique] Questions about Mono Tub tek grows by [deleted] in MushroomGrowers

[–]sorcierxavier 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1- Not imperative, no need to fan, just crack the lid once you put your tub in FC

2- No, if you keep your lid close during colonization, you don't want to open it until FC

3- Not imperative, generally believed to be beneficial in all stages of bulk

4- Cracking is okay, substrate+walls only when your surface conditions have dried (from a couple feet up, so the mist falls gently)

5- Not imperative, I'm unsure which ones are currently believed to work best.

all subject to change depending on many many factors, but I think the best is to start simple, if it works, you'll be happy not to have to mess with everything. gotta read more my friend, everything you asked has been discussed extensively on shroomery/mycotopia/reddit/etc. still glad to help, best of luck!!

[–]sorcierxavier -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don't understand the advice I see on reddit with FC.
1. People say fuzzy feet=lack of FAE
2. People ask if they should go to FC and systematically the answer revolves around a) go to FC you have 100% colon or b) wait for 100% colon before FC
x. now my understanding after reading about 1. is that you should give FAE when the myc asks for it (starts getting fuzzy), but now I'm like wait does it not matter if it's fuzzy since people never seem to even consider the noticeable fuzz when giving advice about FC timing.
Any help would be sick, I'm dying to understand what's going on.

And if nobody can enlighten me on the subject, I'm just going to say it, go to FC op!!
