    Default Are Shrooms Dangerous?

    My friend and I did Shrooms once, and had the time of our lives, but when it was over, people told us that ther eis a chance to be "Stuck in the Trip" that you cant get out of it.

    Is is true, and are there other dangerous side-effects? I'm asking this since we want to do em again ^_^

    Thanks

    I don't honestly think that there are any serious side-effects from doing mushrooms. I've never heard of being "stuck in the trip". I've heard acid trips can go on for up to a year, but seriously, have you ever heard of something like that happening? Mushrooms are organic and natural, I don't see anything wrong with them.

    I'm not sure about the dangers of shrooms, but just becasue somethign is "organic and natural" does not mean it is any safer. Cocaine is made form the coca plant, and heroin is made form the extracts f the opium poppy, and those are two of the most dangerous drugs I know.

    Cocaine has a very large synthesis method. It's not just coca leaves. It involves a lot of chemicals and converting of the chemicals and such. Mushrooms, you just pick them and eat them. Psilocybin has been proven pretty safe too, near-impossible to overdose on, you would die from eating too much before you died of an overdose due to psilocybin.

    Whoa, you can buy them there? Niiiiice. You can't die from them, especially if the store is selling them because that means it's pretty much 100% positively a magic mushroom and not a poisonous one. There's nothing to worry about, I've done shrooms quite a few times and haven't had any problems. I find them pretty damn safe, the safest hallucinogenic I know of, and I know a lot. Have fun

    EDIT: "Mushrooms have no known adverse side-effects, other than leaving you feeling fatigued and probably surrounded by a load of mad paintings and some half-eaten chocolate bars."

    There ya go. Another thing is, set and setting is EVERYTHING. Read up on it a little before you do it again if you are worried about bad trips, but since you've done them before, I'm guessing you're alright.

    No, shrooms aren't dangerous, in the sense that you will have permanent side effects, or lingering effects, or whatever.

    However, in the future, you can have flashbacks.

    You can also have periods where if you look at patterned or textured surfaces, they can "meld" together or waver, like the effects of when you were on shrooms. I have times where if I look at carpeting, it melts together. It's enjoyable, and nothing you should fear.



    So, yes. Take more shrooms, fucker. And enjoy them.

    Haha shit, I was scared I was the only one. Man, I get that shit all the time, the whole texture thing. I will be looking at my ceiling or my carpet or a random object and it will start doing that whole melting/wavy type. I agree though, it's definately enjoyable to watch it

    It's some reaction that I can't remember the name of right now. HPPD or something like that? It's got something to do with trip effects lingering post-trip.

    Yes, HPPD, Hallucinogen Persisting Perception Disorder. I didn't think HPPD was real until it started happenening to me, heh. It doesn't bother me though, I enjoy it a lot actually. Haha, that's crazy that I'm not the only one though. It happened after my first shroom trip of 4 grams (dried) of some really potent shrooms.

    I have ate shrooms many of times. First thing is you can't be tuck in the trip or whatever unless it is acid and you do 2 many drops in the eyes. Second thing you can OD on shrooms because what makes you trip on shrooms is the posion in the shrooms. If you the wrong one you can die or it makes you very sick. Also though if you throw up when you doing shrooms it will make you trip alot harder. I know all this because I used to live in this small town in utah and every spring we would go Shroom hunting.

    I don't know about the throwing up making you trip harder, logically, it doesn't make sense. You CANNOT overdose on psilocybin/psilocin (the alkaloids which make you trip) that is in the mushrooms. The only way you're going to die is if you eat the wrong type of mushroom. He said he's buying them from a store, which means there is a very very good chance that they are the right shrooms, as most people who buy from dealers get the right shrooms too.

    OK well lets see you eat a half and not see you die from to much poison.... An it does make you trip harder by throwing up. An sometimes dealers will try and bad shrooms just so they can make money off them. It not like they got to worry about the health department or anything......

    Haha, I have eaten an OUNCE before. Yes, an ounce. My friend ate a half with me too. Dude, you can't overdose on psilocybin/psilocin, they aren't poison, they're alkaloids.

    Haha. I wish I could slap you right now. You have 21 posts. No, post count does not matter, but that obviously means you haven't been here long. I've been answering questions in Drugs and Booze for quite a while now. I'm pretty god damn active in this forum and I think I know what I'm talking about. YES, LET'S GET ALL OF OUR ANSWERS FROM FUCKING EMINEM. I've heard that song, about some chick ate like 22 caps or some shit and "overdosed". It's a song man, a song (if you even consider it that). You're basing your answers off of a retarded wigger. I have proof. I posted a picture a while back of my ounce that I had too.

    "Are magic mushrooms poisonous?
    No. Psilocybin mushrooms are not toxic. The National Institute For Occupational Safety And Heath (NIOSH) in the US Psilocybin (641) is rated less toxic than Aspirin (199) and Nicotine (21).

    However, the main danger is in mistakenly picking poisonous, non-magic mushrooms. Do not gather mushrooms unless you know what you are doing."

    "There are no known deaths directly caused by overdose. For people with psychological problems, magic mushroom use can cause psychosis."

    Okay, so now I found out that you can't die of them, and if you get the Good Ones (Real Magic Mushrooms) it's perfectly safe for your health.

    But what about the Sideeffects? YOu guys are talking about seeing moving walls and carpets all the time, well that freaks me out. I don't want to feel like I'm drunk for the rest of my life o_O

    Well, I don't feel like I'm drunk or anything. I can still think perfectly normal and all, I don't feel intoxicated. The whole thing with the walls moving, it only happen every once and a while. Maybe.. 2 times a month? 3 times? It's nothing to freaky. You can easily ignore it by just acting like it's not there. Like, I will look at my carpet and it will start to kind of get wavy like when it's really hot outside and you see those heatwaves. It kind of looks like that but better and cooler. I can sit there and choose to watch it or I can get up and carry on with my life. It's honestly nothing to worry about and not everyone has these side-effects.

    the only physical side effects ive experienced from shrooming is some slight nausea while waiting for the trip to really kick in

    Are those the only possible side-effects there are?

    PS. In normal conditions offcourse, I know about the Have-Nothing-On-Your-Mind Thing, and don't do em if you have seconds thoughts.

    That happened the first time a bit, me and some friends were out Picknicking and fishing, and two of us ate some shrooms. After awhile we started acting all funny, seeing weird colours in the Sky and thinking cows were reindeers o_O

    Then the rets of us (2 others) went a bit upstream for a better fishing spot, and left us there, then I started to frak out a bit, I thought they left us, that someone would come and find us (Like the Cops) It was very Nasty

    Ok guys, lets stop being six year olds. The man was wrong, poison told him, and he provided information to clear everything up, as well as provide useful information about the topic question. If you want to carry this out don't shit up this nice forum, take it to the falmes. Nice job as always poison.
