    How old were you? I understand younger people have more vivid hallucinations. Thinking back, did you know where you were and what you were actually doing? I’ve had 12 grams, basically a triple dose, out of self loathing, and at no time was I not fully aware of where I was and what was happening around me. The difference was one of intensity of emotional perception and slightly more vivid color and texture effects. Part of the euphoria is from knowing that those fuzzy bright colors you see are not real, you don’t actually believe the fuzzy colors are there. That would be something.

      It happened one of my first times around 14 years old, and it has happened a few times in my late 20’s and early 30’s. I’ve had homegrown, foraged, and store bought with similar intense experiences. I think people get hit wildly different if you are taking 12 grams, holy shit! I would never. I certainly have lost all track of what was real and where I was with lower doses than that. I believe you, but have experienced much more intense results myself with less than 12 grams. There was no understanding of reality in different scenarios.

          Mushrooms are different, weight does not always have a direct relationship with how potent they are, prolly a better way to word this. Some people are also hypo/hyper sensitive, blood sugar plays a role. A lot of variables, the hardest I’ve ever tripped was on about 1.5 grams, and I usually eat around 3. Ive never been on the level described above, but have had experiences that were absolutely on their way to it. With enough psychedelics, it’s certainly possible.

      Idk what shrooms you got but 12g would be quite a light dose, although that depends on bodyweight, tolerance and how much psilocybine your strain contains ofcourse.

      But yeah from 30g onwards the lines between real and visuals becomes blurry.

      shrooms can be a bit of a dice room on visuals.

      once boiled up half a shopping bag of shrooms and split the tea with one friend.

      There were infinite moments where the fabric of space time twisted up into the cosmos believably revealing to me a path into the heavens. I had to control my breathing otherwise the torrent of everyday objects flowing past me would move too quickly for me to get enough traction.

      I once had three tiny died shrooms, and a bong hit disconnected my soul from my body and transferring me into an ancient dog sleeping in the sun on a wide open field in the wilderness. the entire thing seemed to go for eons but collapsed back into my living room in and instant when some rang the doorbell.

      Then I’ve had shrooms where the trip was extremely profound and emotional but the only visual was the leaves of the trees just looked a bit brighter and more flappy in wind or some swirly clouds of colors bouncing around my hifi speakers.
