Pan Cambo 1.69

[Foster]

Several somewhat recent experiences with cubies, had me aching for something a little more powerful. Having built up a fairly high tolerance, and with fluctuating results from flush to flush, I put aside the cubes and started concentrating on pans.

After testing the waters a couple times with .5 g or so, I figured I was ready.

I carefully weighed out 1.69 g dry(not quite cracker dry,with a couple half dry caps) Assuming it was approx 1.5 cracker dry.
Aboout a 1/4 cup of water was microwaved til boiling then let cool just a bit
The mushies were cut up small and added to the water for a ten minute soak. Then strained and pressed for every bit of goodness.
3 heaping teaspoons of swiss miss hot cocoa was added and stirred. Yes of course with the mini marshmallows. hehe

In about three gulps it was down.

Within about 15 min. it was overtaking me. Never before had I felt such a harsh entry. As my logical thought processes quickly shut down, I was overwhelmed. I felt it creeping through my chest, into my arms and legs as a feeling of being totally lost and without hope hammered my thought. The visual bending and movements I saw were being felt as well. Intense pain as my legs bent and my body folds..giving in. heh thats just the first five minutes. The entire trip was agonizing and brutal mentally to say the least. Since then, I have had no urge to try again. Not that I'm scared, But It truly proved to me that you need to be in the right place mentally, before undertaking the journey. Which I was not.

No doubt, they're potent little buggers. My last Pan Viet trip was physically painful too, I had a splitting head ache for two days, and my muscles were really sore. It was still a beautiful trip.

enjoying the fruits of your labor, i see.

how long was the trip?
how were the .5grams like?

The .5 was very nice. Comparable to 2-3 g of my most potent cubes. I'm sure my mental state going in had alot to do with the experience. I too was left with a headache. BTW I also ended up with a slight headache from the smaller doses the following day.

I thought I might add a little more details of the experience.

This dosage really made me take a look inside. Deep inside. Flashbacks of events,none in great detail, but painful none the less. I felt my mental strength being crushed, squeezed out of me, as a disgust I've never felt toward myself rattled my skull. All of the terrible, mean, unkind things I've done to those I love, battered my thoughts, leaving me with a self-loathing and uttter contempt for myself. There were no smiles or laughter as I sat alone. Only tears of anguish and pain streaming like a river. Thoughts were so fleeting, I couldnt grasp a specific instance and rationally try to console myself. The terrible things were done, nothing I could do to take them back. The physical pain only lasted the first hr or so, but the mental agony went on, seemingly forever. Damn was I glad to see my wife come home from work. And so glad it was almost over. The headaches started in about the 5th or 6th hr and continued thru the next day. Again, I must say. Be prepared, mentally, and physically. You just never know where the awesome force of the mushroom will take you, Until your there. Then its too late. foster

Sorry to hear you didn't had a good time to say the least !

Next time try eating them in capsules,..this way the trip will 'come on' slower.
And try 1 gram...
But it's a good warning for everyone that is reading this.

I have had very "spiritual" experiances every time I have taken more than one gram of Pans.

Have you thought about consuming Pans without Cocoa?
You know, like straight up? Plain or in a flavored, tea?

Interesting that you aren't the only one to experience
headaches and other agonizing symptoms off those shrooms.

There's probably a lot of other people who could benefit
from what you experienced, maybe post over on Erowid, too.

I've tried them fresh picked, dried, in honey tea, and in the cocoa. Every time with a slight headache afterwards. It may be the jaw clenching? Pretty intense even at smaller dosages, but clearly very visual at larger doses. mighty powerful stuff
