I'll give a brief synopsis, but I still have certain feeling in my head that is blocking me from writing like I have with lsd or 2cp. Mind you everything after I smoke is an estimate if you know what I mean. (edit, this note took like 4hrs to write so it changed from a small time thing to a full blown report lol.)
T-0:00 (8:30pm) : Take 2g of shrooms and start hauling wood down a long ass path to the spot where I do fires.
T-1:30 (10:00pm) : Finally get the logs down to spot and start waiting for other friends. At the moment it is me, two friends who took shrooms (one has been tripping for awhile since he took it with orange juice and the other is starting to feel it.) Me and the guy tripping smoke and by five minutes later I'm starting to get visuals. Before that time I had felt nothing in the way of a come up besides noticing that my lighter was brighter (it has a LED on it that changes colors.) The spot where we are is practically on the water, you stand on coral rock and sand, in the distance you can see a nuclear power plant and the lights play on the water. Amazing visuals looking at water, it was like my vision narrowed and the tree tops in the distance made it look like a mountain.
T-2:00+:20 (10:30-10:50pm) : Others finally arrive with the smaller twigs from my car and we start fire, which was one hell of a thing to do with every flick of a lighter blinding you lol. We get the fire started (it was pine wood that I had cut, hard wood, burns strong for the first hour or two but settles down nicely.) My friend starts playing a guitar and the guy I smoked with starts with his bongo type drums. I just sit and stare into the fire while enjoying the music, really good time there. You could see the fire rolling and it was sort of like playing the cloud game but with fire and wood.
T-2:20-3:30 (10:50pm-12:00am) : I decided I wanted to draw some and I hadn't peaked yet so I was feeling pretty good. I got my friend who hadn't smoked and we started walking back. Now this walk has got to be at least 1-2 miles. Not 30 seconds after walking my friend breaks down laughing his ass off, which pretty much set the mood for the entire walk lol. I remembered to bring my light show glasses from the night before (we had been wearing them before the others came) and we put them on again now. I literally couldn't see where I was walking with the glasses on, imagine splitting what you see into three vertical blocks but seeing only one of those blocks. Then I took out my lighter and shined the LED and all I saw was color flashing in my face. When I took off the glasses I still couldn't see. My vision now had a permanent static look to it, like the snow you get when changing to a bad channel on T.V. But this didn't really bother me as I was enjoying the trip with my friend. I could look out on the water and see reflections, shadows of trees on the ground, close my eyes. My friend started talking a lot about how war, fighting, and anger don't make sense. He never did explain himself, but to be honest he was kind of annoying. This was his first time and he talked too much, I'm more of the guy to enjoy the trip and do reflection/thinking on the come down.
Any who, it was one long ass walk there and along the way we passed two friends and I was surprised that we could hold it together. The way back was the same as the way there. Mind you that the only light was that in the distance so this was a night walk which made it all the more amazing.
T-3:30-4:15 (12:00am-12:45am) : We finally got back, still tripping balls, and my friend went to talk or sit down and I started to talk with another friend who I've smoked with. Soon after practically everyone decided to leave, my friend and I had gone so he could have one last hit but my lighter was failing so we had to come back, so he just tok a hit after they left. I stared at the fire while my friend knocked the logs into the rising tide. We grabbed our stuff and walked back. Part of the walk back is on gravel and the part closer to where we parked is paved. Soon after getting on the paved part started the fun, I had brought my long board =P. That was probably a more fun ride than on acid. I had passed my peak and was still tripping pretty well thanks to the mary j carrying the trip. One of the friends left a bag of ice so after the others left me and my friend who hadn't smoked was depending on me for a ride home, but I was still tripping with time distortion so I put off driving.
T-4:15-5:00 (12:45am-1:30am) : He had come off his trip but mine was still enough that I didn't want to drive home. So I stood and looked at the nature around me, ate ice, and did some more longboarding to test my driving abilities.
T-5:00-5:30 (1:30am-2:00am) : Drove my friend and I home, had to call one of my other friends just to make sure I didn't space off.
T-5:30-8:30 (2:00am-5:00am) : I spent my time at home talking to some friends and watching my screen do the wave, contemplated trying to play a video game and instead drew pictures while listening to Floyd (That's in the other thread hovering around.)
Synopsis: This was by far the strongest trip I've had. 2cp was long and visual. Lucy was, as I put it to my friend, lucid lucy. 2cp and Lucy, while differing in strengths, I could still see, walk, talk, longboard, eat. Shrooms took it to a new level. I wouldn't do this when I had to walk some place or do large amounts of interaction. Could I hold myself together? Sure. But as far as controlling the trip, I couldn't. My friend said his trip at the light show just ended and I noticed a difference in my friend I was driving home before we left as he started to pace once he wasn't tripping. The end of my trip when I was at home was being carried by the mary j, but I would say it was as strong as Lucy (comparing the end to 2cp is hard as the visuals on shrooms were more wavy and 2cp is more patterny.) Something I also noticed on my come downs on Lucy and shrooms was that I become very emotional. The 2cp I didn't really feel any different it was like damn that's a nice show going on when I stare off. Lucy I felt happier and a connection that wasn't there before, then I had my writing spree of 800 words or so, and when I wasn't writing I was thinking about actions I had taken and the amount of emotion I felt was more at the come down time than when the event was taking place. Shrooms, shroom reflection amplified my emotions to a point that I would say was overwhelming. I remember thinking back on how I had spent hours chopping wood, transporting it to the spot, waiting for my friends who were 1 1/2hr late, then them leaving so soon when they said they wanted a long fire. My emotions went rampant and I'm pretty sure if I had been around them I would have been yelling. Will I do shrooms again? At this point I don't know. If it is the same amount of time again and I can find a spot to lay down and listen to music, I would probably enjoy it more and have less emotion after. But if I have a repeat or know I have to be around people I would rather stick to Lucy or 2cp depending on the day.
As a side question: How long do shrooms/lucy/2cp normally take to kick in for you guys? I've read plenty of reports, just want to see about ya'll because I never actually trip until I start smoking the peace pipe.
