the altered state of consciousness thread

Trying a Kava Chamomile mix this time, with honey. Should be mellow. I should probably just get some pot, but I've been applying to new jobs lately and want to be 100% clean for an impending drug test.

Also, I've been taking DHA pills (concentrated fish oil pretty much) and it helps greatly with mood, concentration, and makes mornings so much easier to deal with in general.
 
I don't like to take mushrooms at night because you can't fall asleep. Also, it's more fun to wander around in the sunshine instead of the darkness. I haven't had any in about a year. Last time I had them, I read a book while waiting for them to kick in. When I found myself enamored by the contrast between the ink and paper pulp, I went for a swim and had a blast. If they're dried, I prefer to make tea instead of eating them.
 
Took 1 gram a couple hours ago, don't really feel anything besides a weird head high and some nausea, but I kind of expected nothing would happen. Wanted to start off real small. Going to take at least 2.5 next time, whenever I decide to do it.
 
so yeah, two hours in and I know these shrooms are weak, but I'm not sure how weak. I'm pretty sure I feel/felt some effects (more so than when I took 1 g), cause colors look a little more vibrant, and I felt a strange spaciness in my head for a while, but other than that not much. Pales in comparison to my last psychedelic trip (with acid), because that was extremely fucking intense and this is definitely not that. I'm not really upset, just a little disappointed. Not disappointed about being down 20 bucks or anything, that doesn't really matter, just wish I could've had more of an experience.

Definitely going to have to give it another go eventually. I'm going back on prozac soon, which is good, but it also kind sucks since I'll probably have to take a week or two off to attempt to trip again. Not a big deal, I've been on and off it many times before, it's just a bit of a nuisance.
 
So after 15 years of smoking, im going to have to call it quits(for now at least).

Been having weird on and off chest pains for the past few months, and even had a little blood in my phlegm(twice), or at least i think it was blood. Saw a doc yesterday and he wants me to get a chest xray and even see a heart doctor just to stay on the safe side. I'm wondering, shouldn't he have sent me to some kind of lung doc instead? :erk:
