Been itching to try out a mushroom tea since my last several trips have been inconvenienced with stomach discomfort before and after the experience.
Last minute decision, because I got some quiet peaceful alone time I drank 2 coffee cups full of mushroom tea on a half full stomach.
Effects took an hour before anything was felt. About 2 hours before I peaked.
I felt like time was moving slower and colours were more exaggerated. I also felt a little chilly so I hopped in the bath for a bit to begin the ride. The CEV's began first. The normal orange-ish colour I can produce with my eyes shut was very noticeable. And was drifting like clouds.
Not sure how long I spaced out for but patterns and designs eventually began to slowly take over some of my vision. They were beautiful, gold grid-like patterns, slightly altering as they slowly rolled towards me taking over my vision completely now.
I instantly recognized the environment as similar to what I have experienced with dmt breakthrough. I was in hyperspace! I must of drifted back to my body for a second because I was startled to have lost that much control in the bath tub and after a few attempts (you know how it is) I drained the bathtub and got into bed to enjoy the ride.
This trip was very enjoyable. I cant recall seeing any entities, but feeling their presence was a recurring vibe. This was one of my best mushroom experiences.
My stomach discomfort was minimal during the experience.
I will be repeating this, but next time I want to see where 6 grams will take me.
7 seemed overkill for me, I got the experience I wanted, then when it was over the lingering effects lasted way longer than i wanted.
I drank the tea around 7pm and couldn't sleep until after 3am maybe closer to 4, still managed to get up for work at 530am though.
I am so happy to discover how similar dmt and mushrooms can be.
I have had similar "operating table" like experiences with both substances, but this time I went to hyperspace, gently. I skipped the blast off.
Makes me want to try pharmahuasca.
I need to try a higher dose of mescaline aswell.
Trip on, fellow psychonauts. Thanks for reading.
