Have any of you experienced magic mushrooms? I would really like to hear some of your stories or opinions!
I have used them now three times (first time with a friend but it wasn't really strong at that time) and twice with my love just a few weeks ago which was very, very strong. It is só awesome and very, very spiritual. What I saw and what I felt was the plain truth and so beautiful! The oneness of all that is was truly awesome!

i havent used them or any 'drug' for oh... going on 10 years now? more probably. i do remember what it was like though. i also used lsd... i dont want to be judged here by anyone, but on the other hand i dont give a *$(&%# anyway

i was just kind of dubious about posting in this thread as if anyone who was familiar with the OTHER thread we have both participated in, they could turn that against us and say that the reason we feel that way is because we used them, rather than perhaps we used them for exactly the reason in the other thread. do you understand what im on about? lol!

I have never tried any hallucenigentic (sp ),but have considered it for spiritual purposes. Probably never happen as my neck of the woods don`t indulge in em (or anything remotely similar).

I`m interested in hearing about experience too!!

Shall I send you some? Just kidding! But if you can you should get a hold of them some time. Really! I advise them, their taste though, sucks! But they open up sides you never knew exsisted. And really they can make you solve issues if you wish but if you don't that's ok too. Mushrooms let you see the free will in things. You are the director of your own trip and own life. That's basically what you really *see* , that it is all YOU doing it. What you give is what you get!

Yeah, the smart shop is across the street from my bank. So a quick nibble in between home, shopping and banking is possible . No, whenever you want to do it you should do it with someone close and at a comfi place.

A few weeks back we decided to take the shrooms into the forest. It was my second experience and my first with him. Well it was amazing~! When the trip wasn't so heavy anymore we started biking homewards (this was after 2/3 hours) but we were still tripping. It was so much fun and we were both fluently one with our bikes.
The trip on the street was like a film. There is nothing better than enjoying the gift of existing! Everything and everyone was one with the universe and all was so beautiful. We stopped and stared a lot and have been standing still for a long time at one not really special place. But you know everything is special at that time. You also find yourself 'being', that's it. Ego lessens, most of the time ego is just not present anylonger. It was so pleasant.

I also saw my love as an Elf. I saw how good he was, pure love and so sweet! His eyes started twinkling really beautiful and his ears became fluffy and thick as was his nose. I told him in awe how good he is, and how he is an example of how a human should be! He is the goodness himself!

The second time (this was also happening during the first time ánd in real life but was now more focussed on) we knew what the other was thinking and when I thought something he answered it. He turned into me and I into his mother and later into him as well. I saw that we are family, true family and it was almost scary! A few weeks later I visited his parents (for the first time) and we looked at baby pictures. I saw how his mom looked like me (as he experienced in the trip and he was right) and how one picture of him as a baby had my eyes! Ogh, it is all just amazing! I am rambling...

I have experienced hallucinogenics only once in my life. It was the most horrific experience I could possibly imagine. I hurt myself and I hurt the people around me, and it was enough to keep me far away from them ever since.

People should make their own decisions, but you can also learn from other people's mistakes.

there is one use for later-used psychedelics, and that's when an obstacle or personal stubbling block is purposefully focused upon during the trip as a way of shaking your self out of old habits etc. still i know i benefit more from meditation yoga and spiritual discipline than from psychedelics at this point. *sigh* eventually pyschs can accually hinder progress in these areas.

there is always the risk of having a negative experience. as mushrooms and lsd opens other worlds to the user, it also opens the user up to these worlds, and can let out a lot of demons fears and lessons that are more constructively dealt with, um, soberly. my advice to anyone who is looking to try mushrooms or lsd to start SLOW!! most people i know that had bad experiences their first time took more than they personly could handle. being the cautious taurus that i am, i took it WAY slow, taking very small amounts my first couple times.

I agree with you 100%! I also know that most people don't even feel the need to trip often. I mean it is so intense that you don't feel that need. And yes, all that you said I agree with! Some things have opened up and you get the change to work with it. In 'real' life you remember what your trip gave you and you can choose to work with it.
What we both have is that many times is a 'shroom moment', we call it . When we see or experience something we also experienced while tripping, it sort of reminds us many times and I love it! To us it was more than a fun experience, it was FUN! Very spiritual, intense etc..but we also cried of laughing, jokes were hilarious and words amazing! How you can play with everything.
I have also seen how I should accept the earth realm more and only to realise that is very very significant to me. It was a very valuable experience to us!
