So what, they killed a part of their brain and are happier now. We all know that idiots are happier cause they hardly worry about anything.

These mushrooms are the best high. I don't know if they are life altering, although I have done them countless times over the years. Hmm..I am more mellow.

The pic in this article looks exactly like the ones I grew in the late 70s and early 80s. Some of you will recall me mentioning growing psilycibin mushrooms in earlier threads. When the gov't got wind of the research going on in private homes they made the spore samples (purchased from High Times mag) sterile. Of course, then the strain I had cultivated died out. Oh yeah, and I grew up a little!

shrooms are good but you gotta watch out what the fuck yout taking.

Smokey-One can always authenticate shrooms; bending the stem or cap will cause the flesh to bruise a bluish/purplish color. One can then be assured of the genuine item.

Pontius, there is no evidence that shrooms kill brain cells or permanently disable brain matter. That's alcohol.

Aren't you a rather heavy drinker?

How the hell can I become a guinea pig for these studies?

I don't know aboot the guinea part,

Are you calling me a pig Loma? Cause if I am then
I am a natural fundie muzzie repellent.

I wouldn't mind being a guinea pig for the MDMA studies,
it is one of the most fascinating drugs I have ever done.
I think because I really tuned into it's effects. I liked it
better than LSD, it gave me a heightened sense of awareness.
But the comedown is a bit rough the next day & it is a bit
expensive.

Lol. Please to forgive my

Like in the picture.
It was amazing what
one could find up in
fields of Snohomish County \

I believe it; I have had quite the religious experience myself.

I can't stand the taste though, so I ground them in a coffee grinder with a few coffee beans and mixed it in with a mocha. Fucking fantastic.

Pretty good recipe. I just made tea... to the point that everyone
just had to drink a quarter cup to ingest a few grams.

The only problem I see with your recipe is that you're still
ingesting the mushroom "meat", which is what gives that
transient queasy feeling. Much better to brew out the active
ingredient and ingest only that.... though if I had it to do over again,
I suppose I'd use the mushroom water to make coffee/cocoa or something.

Hits faster and a midge more strongly... and goes away quicker too.

Walked into a party where some were doing shrooms. One guy barfed and started fingerpainting with it in amusement, and was tinkering with the chunks. I lost interest fast. I've ridden a few rainbows and floated the soul via other chemicals in the 60s and glad I did it, to know where I fit in. Tough on the body and physical brain. You do need a few straight and smart friends around to be safe.

I knew a couple that sold these gimungous Magic Mushrooms. Not only were the things sooooo Potent, but I would eat an entire 1/8th of the things. Initially, the effects were spectacular: Even people who I knew very well would appear deformed (more so than usual)

this effect would make me laugh uncontrollably. Geometrical, shapes, constantly changing into different designs would appear in the air. If I closed my eyes, there was a Kaleidoscopic effect better than the real thing.

After, say, 4-5 hours, the most painful simultaneous Diarrhea and Vomiting would begin for the rest of the day. Having to pay this piper was what forced me to retire early from this incredible fungus.

The shrooms were undoubtedly waaaaaay more powerful than any LSD.

Haven't done shrooms in sooooo long...
Always ate them in yogurt.
Good times.

The voice of experience:

Stay away from trampolines while shrooming.
