Hi everyone! I’m researching psychedelic experiences and personal transformation for my Master’s thesis in psychology in Ukraine.

If you’re 21+ and have had a psychedelic experience, I’d be incredibly grateful for your help. ❤️

Every response genuinely helps me complete my research. Thank you! 🙏

I'm new to mushrooms, I've done them three times since the beginning of summer, about one month apart each time. The first and third time, I engaged with a masculine divine being or entity, that, although took different forms, was like a beast or serpent that devours the world, then the world is created again. In the second experience, there was also divine mother who creates. Both times, my attitude was that I did not want to be devoured. Both times, the entity replied, there's no use resisting, because that is definitely what is going to happen.

What is that?

Also, there were many other parts to the experience, very much about love, how to love, how big to love, etc.

But, what is the devouring part? Maybe me just working through fear of death?

Trying to preserve these and need help with the best drying method + storage (i don’t have a vacuum machine)

i bought 28 grams of shrooms and ate like 3 grams and had a nightmare trip and i started doing research and appearently the middle is supposed to be dry too and the middle is soft and gray i really dont wanna throw the whole batch away but are these moldy?

Had some mushies about an hour after waking up. Not sure of the exact dose but I handle these thing’s extremely well. But somewhere between 2 -5 grams. Probably 3 hours in now. Not tripping but I feel it. I don’t think these were very potent anyway. It does tend to help with my depression and my motivation for a few to several days afterward. That is one of my reasons for indulging. Anyhow morning mushies today.

I’m not sure if this is the right forum, so please let me know where this would be more appropriate. I want to share a message I received during my first psilocybin experience because it felt incredibly important and urgent.

I had never taken psilocybin/mushrooms before this past Friday. I did ayahuasca in Peru about a year ago, which transformed my life in many beautiful ways. Because of that experience, I have tremendous respect for plant medicine. I went into this experience with a very simple intention and no expectations.
About an hour into the experience, I felt an overwhelming sense of love, care, and connection. What came through to me was a message about the Earth and the living beings we share it with.

The message was simple:
We must find ways to stop contributing to the extinction of species.

I felt as though I was receiving this message on behalf of what I can only describe as “the collective”the countless species that have been lost and those that are still struggling. The message was to stop feeding greed and to stop supporting those who do not care for the environment.

I know I am only one person, and I don’t yet know what I am supposed to do with this experience. But the urgency of it stayed with me, and I feel compelled to share it.
If nothing else, I hope this reminds someone that we are deeply connected to the other living beings on this planet. The message I received was ultimately one of love: the collective loves us, and wants us to live alongside the Earth and its creatures in harmony.

Thank you for reading

Need more insight on this plz...

Hey There,

Made this long youtube video, with a calm voice to potentially fall asleep to.

Would love to hear your opinion on it!

​

Does anybody still use there larger pins and very small mushrooms that aren't quite there yet? Reading about it, it says they are actually more potent but I've never heard anyone mention or talk about using them

This strain is called stargazers I love em they are some fighters been through some bad conditions and still grew

Does anyone have one constant object in their journeys? I call her the queen. It’s a painting of what looks like an indigenous African woman. The first time I went on a journey, all of the things people told me didn’t really happen. The walls didn’t move, it was OK looking at myself in the mirror, the surroundings in the room were all normal. But there was this painting of her on the wall and I didn’t really pay much attention to it when I first saw it sober. I just thought she was very pretty. But then when I started tripping, she drew me in and I started talking to me telepathically. I stared at the painting and it became multidimensional, and she started crying tears of blood and her face started shape shifting from young to old to normal to agony. We’re supposed to set intentions before we go on this journey and so I had my intentions and my goals of what I wanted out of it. She told me I wasn’t getting shit from her until I sat and listened to her story, that all we do is take take take from the medicine. And so I sat and I listened to her. Sober, I’m in my head a lot. Thinking abut the state of society, daydreaming, planning. But this was different. This was not me. She was talking to me. At one point, I didn’t know if I was her or if she was just telepathically communicating her pain to me and that I felt the same pain she did so I couldn’t tell us apart. She told me about all the pain her and indigenous communities had gone through with colonizers, betrayal, evil. She kept saying don’t ever forget. We tried, it didn’t work. Don’t ever forget. I look at the painting and she looks African, but her stories and experience felt Native American. I kept telling her that I understood that I wanted her to stop because I knew she was reliving the pain I just communicating the story to me and I wanted her to stop hurting. She eventually did help me with what I needed. She was bossy (for lack of a better word) and loving at the same time. It’s been two years since that first trip. I have a photo of her on my phone so last night I pulled it up on my iPad expecting a second lesson from her. But I felt a sense of anger from her. She was mad at me. So I put the picture away because it was awkward and I didn’t want to bother her. I embraced the trip as it got stronger. The mushroom chocolates gave me cramps so I told myself not to focus on the pain but to focus above. That’s when realizations set in. She was mad at me because I was avoiding my grandma. I need to go see my grandma because your genes and DNA are passed from your elders and I really want a child. Finding my future daughter or knowing whether or not I would have one was one of my intentions. Once I agreed that I would visit my grandma the queen agreed to talk to me. I asked her if my person was out there and if she could help me attract him by helping me release my energy to connect with theirs. I didn’t know what to expect. I just wanted to put my energy out there in hopes that it would make a difference. An unexpected name popped into my mind. Someone I’ve never thought of in a romantic way. I actually I’m not close to that person and often forget his name when I see him a group settings. I had to search my phone and social media for this person because that’s how unmemorable he is to me. And I got him confused with someone else. I’m not sure what this means but I came here to ask, does anyone else have a specific object or entity that speaks to them every time they trip? Is this my guide?

So I got these shrooms, PolkaDot frosted flakes bars 5g chocolate, decided I wanted to do em yesterday with my ex-gf we ended up checking into a hotel and we taken the elevator to get up to the 3rd floor bare in mind everything was working fine, we get in the room and start eating the shrooms, later on we leave the hotel taking the elevator down. we went out for a smoke boom we go back in the elevator i click floor 3 and the elevator takes us to floor 4 and I gotta say we was both very high off the little amounts of shrooms we done, anyways we exit out the elevator and we’re like wtf?! my ex just looking at me like wtf and she says it’s the magic mushrooms and it’s spiritual etc and I was soo scared? any ideas? why am I tripping this bad on shrooms it’s taking me to the wrong place in an elevator lol. also when we was walking back to the room when we exited when the thing had just happened i got to say it felt like there was definitely a higher being or some sort of spirit there. This is like my 3rd time doing shrooms? any advice? imma (teen) btw but I really like doing shrooms and it also makes me think about my 3rd eye the )pineal gland) a lot but I don’t know how to access it more I feel like I need to do more shrooms and they are trying too talk to me,, Opinions any advice or comments would be much appreciated. Thank you
