![]() | Acid? 14... Around the same time, I had tried shrooms, but never felt anything? First time knew it was working I was 22 or so and camping, had a frizbee from radio shack that had a light. Pitch black night forrest under tall tree's with no moon tripping with my buds playing frizbee. Amazing trails and great fun, couldnt see my hand in front of my face. We did much more falling over stumps and running into trees than catching. That was 10 years ago. |

![]() ![]() | I was eleven, the year was nineteen and seventy six when my brother, the elder of eleven months, had aranged to procure 2 tabs of black dragon. blotter of a potency that still reverberated from within the sixtys. Jean Micheal Jarr's Oxygene played on the phonograph while light based chicklets danced in geometric patterns on the back of my eyelids. Flash forward five years, after buying 10 hits of laughing man acid on the drag from a homeless man (at the astronomical cost of $3.00 each), he invites me to join him 2 days hence for the Ozzy concert. We meet up and after discusing the quality of the 'cid (did I like 'em? yea they made me laugh a lot, guess thats why they were called laughing man, etc.) He then gives me a handful of these dried funny looking things and instructs me to eat them. What are they? I quized, "mushrooms, you will like them, like cid only better" he retorted, and off we went unto Ozbourne land. I can't remember much of the music, but it was the most bad ass light show I have ever seen. ![]() After the show I was so impressed that I bought some more of the mushrooms from this man who then loaned me his hardbound copy of the tibetan book of the dead. he said it was for the trip. That night I ate some more, but due to the fact that I had been tripping for days, I fell asleep before blastoff. I do not remember my dreams that night but when I awoke my (long) hair was one big knot (no really, ONE knot, it took a week and half of it lost to the brush to get it out). I returned to give this man back his book (he made me SWEAR to it when he loaned it to me) but , much to my chagrin, he was never to be seen again, moved on or busted I never knew. That was my first taste of the long lasting oraly active form of dmt. I kept that book for 25 years until a young aquaintence (friend of a neighbor of mine) came to my house to offer a bite and to find information about animita from me (I had a garden that would make a midevil witch jealous) He had recognized a few species, making him think I might have some experience with fly agaric and would want to share the trip. I declined, having just lost my beloved parrot a mere 2 weeks earlyer, because of an acident that was entirely my fault, I was feeling guilty and I was not in the proper headspace to trip with the "young-uns" (he and his buddy were barely 21). I declined but felt it was a good time to pass the torch (so to speak) and handed the beloved book on to a younger generation of want to be shamen. Now, about the first time I did the short term, non orally active dmt (yopo). I was 23 and a friend had just returned from South America with a woven box he bought from a man that "looked like he just steped out of the jungle".... Ok, i'm sorry, (hangs his head) I'm done, I won't ramble anymore.

![]() | I was 10 when I first did mushrooms. From what I remember I believe they were cubensis and I did about 3/4 of an eigth. I know damn well that this is too young to be doing these kinds of powerful entheogens but my brother is the one who gave em to me (admittedly though, I wanted to do them.) Looking back on it I guess its ok because Im still here and I got my shit together. Oh well, c'est la vie.

![]() | It was around 1973; I was about 24. A biologist friend from work was into mycology, and knew where to find the goodies even in the far northeast. I don't know the exact species, but now and then he'd drop in with a big bag. I liked them infinitely better than acid, not so jittery. They were REALLY NASTY TASTING but did the job nicely. That year I almost always drove around with a jug of shroom juice on the seat beside me, sipping just enough to keep things interesting.![]()

![]() | First ''real'' trip on mushies in October 06', camping out in Amsterdam. experienced many a stimulant/meditative cohort, but never had the opportunity to try shrooms before then. Anyways, after loads of investigation and heaps of insight I was driven to ingest 8 dry grams... An unfinished journey culminating in my arrival here... Oh, the clock ticks 20 for me.

![]() | Mushrooms are not very popular around my city so the psychedelic year was 2005. In march I had a pretty heavy trip, although not with shrooms, which I tried at about September. No LSD yet, I must try it though.

![]() | When I was 16 at a gathering.... foaf was handed lsd, opium, and an MDMA analog called 'sassafras'-we think this is MDME(3,4-MethyleneDioxy N-methyl alpha-ethyl phenylisopropylamine... an excellent, friendly drug, without the neurotoxicity, and associated burnout of ecstacy) Since that time..... well, sobriety is now an altered state for me ![]() |

![]() | 1980 on Amanita Muscaria. Very poor first choice for entheogens, but I dug the hell out of it. Been a junkie for 'em ever since...

![]() | 20, with some salvia. I think i had herb first when I was 16, but for some reason it didn't do anything to me. I tried it again when I was 19 a few times, and it barely did anything. Then, shortly after my 20th birthday, I and my friends decided to solve this 'problem' - we got an oz of chronic and smoked it all up. Holy shit was that a great night. Ever since then, I've had no problems at all - even on the smallest of amounts.

![]() | Spring of 68, age 17, first trip, morning glory seeds - my only success with them Spring of 69, first acid, blue splashed on some vitamin pill. Summer of 70, first psilocybin, synthetic. First time with shrooms was only a couple years ago; it was my son who got me into the growing of them. |

![]() | I'm 22 now, 23 next month, and my first trip (psilocybin mush) was September 2005 when I was 21. Seven grams. I flipped right the fuck out. Been tripping every three months or so ever since then. First LSD is going to be this Wednesday. I'm doing a lot of meditating to clear my mind and focus for the trip. |
