I haven't. Aside from the short term effect of having to sleep the whole next day after a trip, there isn't anything I can notice.

However, as my tolerance and experience grows I am finding that sleep is coming easier.

I cured my road rage permanently so I’m sure a doctor somewhere has something colourful to say about that.

@remotelove nope, can't think of any negative effect at all..

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Cool. I just ate another 5g or more?

Ill see you on the moon, brother! Maybe mars? I dunno. The world is currently melting around me, so I'll get back with you when I am back. Cheers!

On a serious note, what is the most you have consumed in one go?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

@remotelove uhm.. I think I might have gone up to 7 probably? dont think i reached 10 ever.. but take this numbers with a grain of salt

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It just so happens I like grains of salt!

I feel like Alice tonight and am curious about how deep the rabbit hole goes.

Not far enough it seems.

I am about to eat 8 grams now, so wish me luck!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Good luck, sounds expensive. I can't imagine eating that many I do like 1-2g and go from there.

Nothing beats 100% home-grown! I have too much if anything, brother.

What are they some kind of pe?

Somewhere in the lineage, I suppose. Denver Spore Company's Mac Galactic, to be exact.

I am planning for many more in the future and I have a fridge packed with petri dishes, just in case the world ends or something. :)

Are these all grown with ub and shoe boxes?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yep!

I have a pressure cooker and a laminar flow hood now, so I will make bigger batches of spawn in the future. I'll still use UB Tek though as it is super easy.

No negative long term effects, but the experiences will stick with me forever and probably helped shape some of my personal philosophies and thoughts on stuff like conciousness and spirituality.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I am just over the "spiritual awakening" boundary myself. Over the last several months since this post, I have gone through some major shifts and it has absolutely been an amazing journey.

While I never will be religious, going through several instances of absolute ego dissolution has absolutely awakened something that I can only describe as spiritual. Once I saw for myself how fragile our perception of reality could be, it changed something. I dunno quite what, but it did.

While I still eat a couple of grams here and there, I don't really see the need to do more than that anymore. It's weird how that works.

My anxiety and depression are just shadows of what they once were. My weight has stabilized and my body is actually healing from what was years of alcoholism. (I actually quit drinking about a year ago but my health only recently stabilized once I was able to get my mind back on what amounts to a new plane of existence.)

Quitting drinking probably saved my life but shrooms are helping me rebuild my life. Well, shrooms pointed me in a really healthy direction, anyway.
