I am back from my first trip on shrooms. I took 2.5 grams and got thoroughly intoxicated. I had a 75 minute walk through downtown that seemed to last a really long time. I managed to get home just before I became totally useless. There were no visuals. I do not know if I need a higher dose or if my brain does not react that way to the drug. I did enjoy myself, there was some euphoria. I watched a few TED talks on YouTube. I tried listening to music and realized most of the subject matter is about relationships, yawn. I ended up calling an old friend and having a really good conversation. I nearly called an ex-girlfriend but luckily I had enough sense to realize what a mistake that would have been.
Most people experiment with drugs and different sexual partners in their teens and early twenties, and here I am doing so in my late fifties. Maybe this is the mythical mid-life crisis us men are supposed to have. I wish I could get high with friends, but I do not know anyone I can do this with that I can trust. Toward the end of my walk I realized how vulnerable I was, and that I needed to be in a safe environment.
For those interested I bought the shrooms from
Edibles - Quadzilla. I placed the order in the morning and received them at 4 pm the same day.
