I don't know how many of you like or dislike mushrooms, or any hallucinogens f or that matter; but I love em. So last night I decided to test just how much mushrooms I could take before I lose my mind. This is the diary of the events that took place last night.
So the first thing I did was make my "trip playlist" on iTunes. If you don't organize this from the gate to continuously play; you will be caught with silence and no way to make music come back again. I had 10 hours of music ready to go. Then I got my trip area all ready. Lights in rooms I wanted to explore. Blankets outside, just in case I wanted to lay outside to watch the stars. You know things like that.
So then I began to measure out the doses. I separated increments of 1 grams into 7 total grams (1/4 ounce of mushrooms). Usually a normal person would take anything from 1.5 grams to 3 grams for their journey. My normal dose is around 3 grams. So I figured the starting point was 3 increments and after 30 minutes, I would take another gram. Well in 30 minutes, I didn't feel a damn thing and got a little frustrated. I said FUCK IT and took all 7 grams (2 times my normal dose). <--- You might think this was stupid as fuck, but, well... Okay fuck it, it was stupid and insane, but it was really too late (insert HOMER DOH here). So my journey begins at 9:40pm.
Wave #1 (Mellow beginning) at 10:15
Okay if any of you have taken mushrooms, you know there are a group of waves (either it be body, emotional, visual and spiritual changes). My first wave was the epic "OMG, my head is filling with energy". The visuals were mild. I was watching the stucco on my walls swirl and become paisleys. Pretty much looked like this, but swirling.
So things were cool. I felt pretty good until wave 2 decided to creep up on me.
Wave #2 (The beginning of madness) at 10:40 pm
My body became intense. I mean I was feeling my eyes were moving around my body. I felt my mouth was on the top of my head. My hair felt like it was on fire. When I looked at other people; they started to turn into mushroom-like morphs. I'm talking like their eyes, mouth and ears sucked themselves inside and all I saw was bubbling skin. When I tried to talk to people, they had beams of light shooting from behind them. Their heads would get twice as big, then shrink 3 times as small. At that moment, I said "Oh shit here comes my peak, get ready!" But boy was I wrong. That was really "wave 1" and I didn't know it.
Wave #3 (It can't be even more intense can it?) 11:00 pm
Actually, not only can it be more intense, it is going to be even crazier; but it's fair to talk about every change in intensity. Okay at this point, I decided to leave the outdoors and make my way into the house. I really had to go pee badly, so I made my way into the bathroom. What I noticed was everything looked black and white. And not just black and white. It was more like those pictures that everything was that blue gray and the rose was red kinda thing. My mind was going a thousand miles per minute. I absolutely couldn't think of what to do. When I went into the toilet, I started talking to the stool, apologizing that I was peeing it it's mouth. It answered "That's what I'm here for". Now I didn't hear it actually say that. It talked to me telepathically. So I started laughing really hard. I realized that the toilet couldn't talk to me and I laughed at myself that I actually believed it happened. I walked outside again to tell my friends about it. So I began to speak and nothing could come out. Basically it came out like "Blah, seem ohhhhh lol lol haha do you feel me?" They were like "huh?!" and that's when I started to freak out. And not a scary freak out. It was "Holy shit this is going to get more intense cause I'm only 1.5 hours into the trip. Usually the peak happens 2.5 hours into the journey. I was able to walk, and move around, but I kept chopping my hands like a crab. I would put my hands close to my mouth, then blurt out "Yah!!!" then laugh and jump; flaring my arms and then walk in circles. The journey is moving into wave #4.
Wave #4 (The fun house) at 11:30 pm
Okay at this moment, I realized my insanity is reaching a new level. Everything around me was closing in. I felt like I was in one of those "mirror mazes" images kept repeating. Colors and light was shooting everywhere. I felt like I couldn't walk, yet I was walking. I felt like I couldn't talk, but I was talking. Things like that. It was like one of those music videos where images are quickly changing frames. The music started to warp and talk to me. The guitar sang, not the vocalist. Things sounded out of tune, but beautiful. The drums felt like they were playing in my head. The lyrics sounded like they were talking directly to me. Telling me what I needed to do in life. I started trying to climb walls. Doing cartwheels, jumping and grabbing things from the air. You would think my friends were scared, but they told me it was scenes from "Fear and Loathing Las Vegas". I kept making those weird "sigh sounds" Johnny Depp made. I was grabbing things from the air, and throwing them into another universe.
Wave #5 (The peak) at 12:00pm
Now this was the scary part. I actually thought I lost my mind and there was no coming back. the Wall clock was melting like a Salvador Dali painting. I sat down and stars were shooting from my chest, blinding me. I had a ceiling fan with four lights, and it felt like the sun. I started having the "mental and emotional roller coaster" trip. I kept thinking about "Oh no, I may end up like the Pink Floyd singer staying crazy after he took too much acid." You know Syd Barrett. All I wanted to do was lay down and just let this madness stop. I felt like a rocket ship. Seriously thought I was like Goku, building up energy to blast off into space. Finally, my friends just told me to lay on the couch. So I melted into the couch looking at the ceiling breathing and melting with me. I began to calm down, and everything started getting peaceful again.
Wave #6 (philosophical communication) at 12:45 am
At this point, I began to cry. Not a sad cry, but tears of joy. I realized just how important life truly is. How powerful your mind can be, and how simple words like "Money, love, how I own the word fly". I said I purchased the word "fly" because I can fly. I actually felt like I was floating on the coach. Like swimming through air. It was a very peaceful time. I was surrounded by all my friends, as they listened to every detailed word. They said it was some of the most amazing concepts they've heard in a long while. Things were starting to wind down. I realized, I wasn't going to stay crazy. I realized, that my girlfriend Joanna was the most amazing person on the planet. I was saying how much I love NIN, Joy Formidable, Smashing Pumpkins, Deftones and other bands that gifted me their moment in life. I started thinking about what Trent Reznor was thinking while he made the song "hurt". You know things like that. My trip was coming to an end.
Wave #7 (The come down) 1:30am
At this point, I was just explaining what was going on through my mind. My friends wanted to know what I was seeing. Shit like that. I felt at peace, happy, not really wanting it to end, but accepting that it had to happen. My friends all left and Joanna and I started our make out session. Once we finished, we went to bed and cuddled for 1 more hour and I fell asleep.
THE END...
P.S. When I talked about money, I said: Money is just paper that is backed my a concept of value. It's not a material piece of "gold" and the value is just what everyone agrees. I said I could walk into the bank and tell them I have a zillion dollars in gold to the left of me. They wouldn't be able to see it; but if I gave them enough mushrooms, they would believe me. So maybe the true value is the mind control of the magic mushroom. I said that a mushroom that costs $30, could net millions. Okay... YOu may think that's stupid. I liked it.
