I've never had a nightmare trip from shrooms. Even when I've taken a little too much. No matter how weird it gets I still have enough of my ego in tact to tell me "this is weird because you ate shrooms".
With acid I once had a solid three day trip with no sleep for accidentally taking too much at the Trinumeral festival in Deerfields, NC. The first 6 hours of that trip were the only time I've ever legitimately questioned what was real and also where my mind was manifesting thoughts into a perceived reality. For example I would be watching a trippy electronic show and would like think "my friend Dante would really like this" and then I would look to my right and Dante would be right there and say "yeah man this shit is sick." Was Dante really there because he liked this stuff or was my mind just telling me he was there? When I would try to reach out and touch him to see if he was real, was he actually moving out of the way because dude dont be weird what are you doing or was this manifestation my brain created telling it to move to not shatter the reality? To this day I still don't know.
Whereas hallucinations on shrooms are like "lol Disco Biscuits Brownie looks and sounds like an oversized garden gnome lol"

Arguing to keep alcohol to top 3 because it tastes the best and leads to memories. Let's fuck off with marijuana because it makes you okay with being bored. I don't like acid as much because the trip just takes too long and I end up laying in my hammock at Bonnaroo waiting for the walls of my tent to stop breathing so I can go to bed, but I don't think acid should go now. In a perfect world my top 3 are 1. Mushrooms 2. Alcohol 3. Acid.
I loathe the time that I was a pothead because I was cool with just getting home from work or class and smoking myself into a stupor every day. When I started drinking in college I started making memories and going out and doing stupid college shit with friends instead of playing Injustice 2 on the couch with my roommates. If alcohol didn't exist, I never would have come out of my shell, which means I never would have gotten involved in Greek Life, which means I never would have met the girl who introduced me to festivals, and even though that turned into a mess- I never would have been to Bonnaroo. Which means I would never be on this forum arguing with you guys about the Bonnaroo Music and Drug festival and which drug is the best.
Alcohol can absolutely destroy lives when abused, but I can trace the shift in my entire life to the one night my classmate came over to smoke weed with us and said "nah dude you're coming to the bar with my roommates tonight."
Mushrooms are my top choice for number one because a solid mushroom trip every 3 months does more for my brain than being on SSRI's and I can still have a healthy sex life. Zoloft saved my life but the complete lack of libido it gave me was insane. I'm diagnosed with Major Depressive Disorder and have taken several grippy sock vacations, I can straight up tell when my brain's serotonin production is off and for whatever reason Mushrooms throw that right back where it should be.
“One of the most interesting things we’ve learned about the classic psychedelics is that they have a dramatic effect on the way brain systems synchronize, or move and groove together. When someone’s on psilocybin, we see an overall increase in connectivity between areas of the brain that don’t normally communicate well."
"here's a scientific list of reasons I'm not a fucking nerd"
i would never claim not to be a nerd. my nerd status is a confirmed fact. we are all here, active on an internet forum that revolves around a festival that peaked in 2012-14. i am simply positing that finding acid and shrooms to be elevating mental experiences isnt what makes me or anyone else a nerd

Even my most "nightmare" mushroom trips have been hilarious. At Hula 23 I took a little too much and got lost and found their Incendia stage and just sat down on my blanket and watched it for a while and I just remember thinking "well this isn't good, I'm lost and now the stage is on fire." Took my boots off and when I went to put them back on took a solid while figuring out how to get my right foot into that boot, I just kept taking it off and looking at it and someone came over and checked on me and laughed with me about the fact I was tripping so hard I couldn't figure out how shoes worked.

i love this because who among us hasn't been at a show or festival when suddenly some sweaty guy is grunting and gently touching our face. or we live long enough to see ourselves become that guy.

Yea but I see people saying it’s life changing, while there isn’t shit changing in their lives.
i mean, but it is. i do a deep shroom trip when i need to sort shit out in my brain. it literally creates new paths in your brain to help with depression, anxiety, or just to see problems in your life in a new way. going from depressed to getting your shit together is, quite literally, life changing. and sure from your angle you can say someone hasn't "changed shit in their lives" but maybe they got out of their trip and now they're not stuck in a depressive thought loop and now keep their house cleaner and call their parents more often. luckily i don't have to trip quarterly like i did for a bit, and i think it's been over a year now since i've done a Big One, but sometimes the shrooms come calling and it's time for a night with myself and the fungi. they've helped me tremendously at large doses, and have been fun as hell at smaller doses. shrooms rule.

the only time ive truly felt "trapped" in a trip was the first time i did acid, bonnaroo 2016: i was at the god awful superjam and started literally tearing up from how much i hated it but simply could not figure out how to displace myself from the plot of grass i was sitting on. the distress reached peak level when the third eye blind dude started singing a horrendous version of "Ring of Fire" and once the fireworks started, i truly wasnt sure if they were real or a fabrication. i threw up on the ground as i finally found a way to leave (shoutout Rothric who was my bad-trip lifesaver that night, we miss thee) because my body just had this literally pained response to the whole thing lol
but ive already spoken to how that first time taking too much acid was just a dumb rookie move and the drug is not to blame. have had nothing but lovely experiences ever since. and i trust in my heart that if the third eye blind singer ever showed up to sing to me again during an acid trip, i'd have the strength this time to GET THE FUCK AWAY. if thats not growth, idk what is

hush now, no science or logic allowed in this space i've learned.

don't blame the acid for this, i was stone cold sober at that superjam and had an identical experience.

of the drugs left, i don't fuck with weed anymore. i've never had a bad time on acid or shrooms but weed has had me stuck to the couch self loathing for four hours. it's also the only one left that is stinky.

marijuana is so boring and makes people literally dumb. people act like it's completely safe but my friends that are addicted to weed are literally slow at this point.
Do you want to dance while also thinking about all the ways you've failed as a human?

Would you rather be stuck in a room with a group of people who got way too high (from weed) or people who got way too drunk?
No right or wrong answers here. Just curious on takes.
interesting thought experiment because of the "way too" piece. for "way too" i'll take the room full of stoners all day.
because high people are slow and predictable. i'd feel safe and relaxed with them. people who are way too drunk are erratic and unpredictable.
but if you take it down from "way too", people who have just had a few drinks are more fun than people who are a little high. they are more likely to say outrageous things and embarrass themselves and thats cool. source: been sober at many office christmas parties. i'm never more confident then when my coworkers are a little loose and might do something ridiculous at any given moment.

As a sober person, stoners are a better time than drunks. While tipsy person can be more fun, the line between tipsy/annoying is razor thin. The volatility of alcohol can turn an otherwise good night into a fucking nightmare real quick.

meanwhile, a really high person probably won't do anything to contribute to a night being memorable.

High, and it's not even close.
retweet.
ive never seen a stoned person scream at someone, push someone, run around a party crying to everyone who will listen, etc, all by way of the state they're in from the substance.
these are all things ive seen drunk people do many times.
agreed that stoners who are addicted to it, like smoking daily throughout the day, tend to be p slow and lazy--but "slow and lazy" just doesnt even come close to comparing to the shittery ive seen from wasted people.

The possibility of being vomited on, getting into a fight, and/or getting thrown out of a bar is memorable, but is it a good time?
Worst thing really stoned people will do is forget what we’re talking about and order an unnecessary amount of food. Even then, you can still talk shit and have a good time.
I’ll take the people that aren’t gonna get me arrested, thanks.

if we're judging these by the worst possible case scenario than someones gonna say LSD makes people jump off of roofs cause they think they can fly. The average drinking person isn't puking or getting arrested, that's a very extreme case, I've been black out drunk plenty of times and never been arrested. sure that isn't happening if you're insanely high, cause you haven't even left the house or moved or done anything fun

I've seen you plenty of times having an amazing time with people that are way too drunk, breaking picnic tables, puking, having massive dance parties while T3ddy F1a1r DJs, etc.

this is why at the aforementioned office functions i always go home when the office sponsored function ends. never go to a second location with your drunk coworkers.

yeah inforoo drunk people tend to be pretty fun. this is more so because we are fun, separate of the amount of alcohol being consumed.
sadly, the world is not mostly comprised of the fine characters we have here on inforoo dot com.
