    Overdose thc and horrortrip please read.

    Actually, cannabis in general and THC in particular share aspects of multiple classes of psychotropic. (see this diagram) It is a depressant, stimulant and psychedelic, among other things. It's really in a class of its own. To say that it has no psychonautic potential or that it is in no way...

    Overdose thc and horrortrip please read.

    Please don't take my concise wording as a dismissal or belittlement toward you and the intensity of your experience; that was in no way my intent. Going from your original post, all that I could glean of your experience were the worrisome and frightening physical symptoms. As the elements of the...

    Overdose thc and horrortrip please read.

    The symptoms you describe are quite common and are indicative of an uncomfortably strong reaction to cannabis. THC among other cannabinoids is a rather powerful vasodilator (expands the arterial muscles increasing blood-flow to peripheral tissues and decreasing blood pressure) which obviously...

    my first experience with amanita muscaria

    I should also note that if you have epilepsy or any neurological disorder that you avoid this mushroom (and probably most other psychoactives for that matter)
  5. buffachino

    my first experience with amanita muscaria

    Just to clear this up a bit; Amanita muscaria contains muscimol/ibotenic acid, completely different psychoactive compounds to psilocybin containing fungi. Ibotenic acid is converted into muscimol with heating/drying/boiling, and muscimol acts as a GABA agonist, while psilocybin is a serotonergic...

    Concerned about friend's physical reaction to shrooms

    Based on the scant information you provided about your friend, its sounds like acute anaemia or hypotension. If I remember correctly, psilocin's affect on the brain can have downstream histaminergic side effects. Does your friend have any known allergies or food sensitivities? Does he...

    Navigating the realms of the Mushroom

    Yes; you must cleanse the internal debris that obstruct the revelation of knowledge. The work of control is really about tempering yourself, allowing the experience to guide the growth process naturally. If you pull hard on the reins and tenuous threads of your own ego structure, the...

    Sunlight / water / fertilization

    No need for humidity. Low nitrogen cacti/succulent fertiliser. Will remain dormant during the winter months. Don't need full sun, more direct light they receive the lighter green they will become. Still, good to have more light than in a dark corner indoors. Like all plants, sun/water/food...

    Parents

    Dose when no one else is there, or when everyone is asleep. Probably not the best idea. Unsympathetic environments, especially one so uncongenial as a hotel, could introduce complications. It’s important to pay attention to the setting; it most certainly benefits the experience. If your...

    Interested in salvia but unsure of it

    I’m not saying whether you or anyone else should or should not take psychedelics. I’m simply stating that the possibility of enjoyable experiences entail the possibility of difficult ones. If you’re reluctant to take the good with the bad, then perhaps it is better to not take them at all than...

    How to extract DMT (The Easy & low-cost way)

    I just wonder how you ever plan to get good results without proper measurement. It will simply take a lot of trial and error I suppose. It’s just harder to know what went wrong if you don’t know all the relevant variables. As for alternative teks, there are many out there floating around; new...

    I think it entails sensitivity to sensation, to feeling, to experience. The problem seems to be desensitisation. Overstimulation with the trivial; total cognitive saturation beyond the point where we can feel the consequences of our actions toward each other and the world. It’s the direct...

    That’s true, but power stems from within, not from without. We only have the power to know who we are. Amen. Indeed. People confer power to others, to concepts and institutions, because it creates comfort in irresponsibility and a sense of belonging to an entity greater than oneself. it...

    Interested in salvia but unsure of it

    I just see it as escapist, and it aids in destroying the potential for the integration of primordial fears which arise in the form of anxiety in such immersive states. But hey, if you’re unwilling to look at those things, even if they seem irrational, then maybe you shouldn’t be taking...

    Anyone want to join the fight for Australian Legalisation?

    If you consider psychedelics as catalysts for the revaluation of base human ideals and assumptions, contrasted with the current prohibitive model of denying the exploration of consciousness and all its boundary dissolving ramifications, then I struggle to see how the two can be consolidated...

    How to extract DMT (The Easy & low-cost way)

    So you’re doing several acid washes (at ph2?) and removing the solids, de-fatting aqueous solution with naphtha, then basifying to ph11 for non-polar extraction? You used this same procedure in the past using naphtha again as the non-polar extraction solvent at this ph and achieved no yield at...

    Interested in salvia but unsure of it

    Personally I don’t have experience with salvia, but gleaning from the literature it seems that in effective doses of fortified leaves or other extracts the effects are the quintessence of ego death. I agree that if you desire to use salvia as your first psychedelic, then it is better to use a...

    Opium With Hash.

    I would suggest refining the opium (if indeed it need be refined) separately to the production of the hash, then if one so wished, combine the two into a single product. This would prevent unknown complications and perhaps a waste of opium. Good luck.

    The ayahuasca effect - The role of MAOI's

    I think that this possibility has some weight to it in light of DMT's characteristics. The brevity of the experience alone is an indication that the body is familiar with the compound.

    DMT 1'st time

    How do you plan on smoking it? I have found that the trick is getting enough of the vapour into your lungs and keeping it there before the trip overwhelms your ability to smoke any more. It can also be difficult to achieve escape velocity before the initial DMT is already being metabolised. You...

    Spice to be banned in UK

    Synthetic canabinoid receptor agonists JWH-018, CP_47,497, HU-210 and some of their analogues have been found in various forms of spice. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spice_(drug) They should be considered research chemicals.

    The ayahuasca effect - The role of MAOI's

    I think that difficult or unpleasant experiences from higher doses are not the result of lowered serotonin binding, because the exogenous compounds themselves stimulate the receptor causing the neuron to fire, as does serotonin. I would posit that difficult experiences from higher doses result...

    The ayahuasca effect - The role of MAOI's

    I agree option B is the most likely of those I proposed, however we won’t know for sure until tests have been done with pure compounds in vivo/vitro. Such an undertaking would be complicated because of the differences in individual neurochemistry. It is also impossible to test exogenous...

    The ayahuasca effect - The role of MAOI's

    Ok, I thought we could discuss the role of MAOI’s, in combination with DMT and other psychedelics such as psilocin. Main article by Jonathan Ott. The general idea is that because of MAO inhibition, levels of endogenous neurotransmitters are increased and could therefore compete with the drug...

    Is there a tolerance

    It is quite plausible that some tolerance has arisen. When intake is almost weekly, this is likely to happen to some extent. I would suggest waiting longer periods between experiences to minimise tolerance. It is also a possibility that the mushrooms and LSD you used on separate occasions...

    Sleep Paralysis and REM sleep

    My experience of ‘typical’ sleep–paralysis, that is as it is most often described in the literature, occurred before my use of psychedelics. How so? Are there any? The question of influence is unnecessary if consciousness is but a continua.

    I forgot to mention that you have to filter the powder from the water after a boil. You can re-soak this with more water, but it usually isn’t necessary.

    Amanita Hunting

    It also must be said that the potency of this mushroom varies quite a bit, and therefore so does dosage. To work with this mushroom is to forge a relationship that, like mycelium, grows over time. Amanitas, as with some other plant psychedelics, seem to display a discriminating taste when...

    Where would we be

    Well the receptor complex to which salvinorins bind is endogenous, so there must be some ligand which activates them in the body; if not, then such receptors are vestigial traces of when this system was once active.
