So, I met this cool person who apparently cultivates delicious mushrooms in her home. Portobellos, the kinds you can buy at various stores, and "Magic Mushrooms".
I asked Alice if she had any advice for me involving them, and she told me to post about it here. SO!
Does anyone have any advice for me? Obviously the usual drug rules apply: nothing druggy before and after, safe environment, sober supervision and all that. This is the strongest thing I've tried though. Anything special I should know about this particular drug?

There's really no overdose for psilocibin, but that's not to caution from eating too much. 1/8 to 1/4 of an ounce is a good dosing range. Nobody can know how this substance will effect them, so if one were to consume it, it would be wise to do so in the company of a sober individual or at least with another person with a lot of experience with the mushroom.
Don't go at it with the wrong attitude. Dosing when upset or stressed can lead to one hell of a bad trip.

While The Small Gods Society does not condone or encourage the use of controlled substances of any kind, we cannot stop you and are morally (but not legally) obligated to provide whatever advice we may in order to facilitate your safety, and we cannot assume that this activity is not legal in your area.
That being said, do it in a safe and familiar place where you feel comfortable and will not be disturbed. And for god's sake clear your schedule for a day or two and don't go into work, drive or otherwise compromise yourself until you're sure the effects have worn off.
May you find what you seek,
Alice

Do it in a safe and familiar place where you feel comfortable and will not be disturbed. And for god's sake clear your schedule for a day or two and don't go into work, drive or otherwise compromise yourself until you're sure the effects have worn off. Um, remember what I said: Obviously the usual drug rules apply: nothing druggy before and after, safe environment, sober supervision and all that. These are pretty much standard rules for any time you try drugs you're not familiar with, legal or otherwise. When I first smoked pot, when I first dropped Dex, I was careful to follow these rules. - Be completely drug-free before
- Stay completely drug-free until completely sober
- Be in a safe environment without risk of drug-related hazards
- Have a sober individual to watch you
- Don't do it right before an important engagement
I'm following all those rules strictly. Actually, you guys might want to post that list somewhere if you haven't already. You guys did give some great advice about them though: There's really no overdose for psilocibin, but that's not to caution from eating too much. 1/8 to 1/4 of an ounce is a good dosing range. Don't go at it with the wrong attitude. Dosing when upset or stressed can lead to one hell of a bad trip. Now I know: 1/8 of on ounce is probably a good dose. What would be a good way to prepare these? Keeping in mind that they are cultivated in a relatively clean environment. Also, do you have any good advice on the specifics of getting and keeping a good attitude? And is falling asleep while coming down from this a safe idea? we cannot assume that this activity is not legal in your area. I'm not really sure... It seems silly to me that a reason-based society would make growing something in your home and then ingesting it for temporary effects illegal when done responsibly, but then again, I'm not a rich person who bribes the government to make laws, so I have no control over it. |

Also, do you have any good advice on the specifics of getting and keeping a good attitude? And is falling asleep while coming down from this a safe idea? Chew and swallow them on an empty stomach. As for a good attitude, that shouldn't be "forced." If one were to consume them, they'd be wise to do so on a day they were naturally in a good mood. And falling asleep isn't a bad idea, just know you may have unusual dreams. |

We do indeed have an article on safe use here.
There are numerous psychoactive mushroom, and none of them are illegal everywhere. So it is reasonable to assume that whatever you intend to use is legal in your area.
For future reference however, discussion of future intentions to commit a criminal act are forbidden on this board and may even be reported to the appropriate authorities. Hypothetical discussion of the use of illegal substance and their effects are permitted of course.
And so you know, mentioning where you intend to do such a thing in a public venue would constitute probable cause for law enforcement in most areas to perform a search.
May you find what you seek,
Alice
