What follows is a description of an awesome Amanita muscaria trip taken for the first time by 2 males and 2 females last night. We owe our wonderful experience partially to the Amanita muscaria and partially to the great information found [online]. As such, I felt that I should add to the discussion with a precise account of our trip with this mushroom.

First, a little about the participants: The 2 males are 32 and 26 years old and weigh about 180 and 160 lbs., respectively. They smoke quality marijuana on a daily basis and have tried LSD, Psilocybe cubensis (Magic Shrooms), Cocaine, Meth, Salvia divinorum, and various other synthetics. On the other hand, the 2 females were comparably inexperienced. The females are both 24 years of age (and drop-dead gorgeous). I thought it best not to ask them how much they weigh. Both of them barely smoke marijuana, but one of them had taken multiple Magic Shroom trips. Below, is an accurate timeline and commentary of an amazing experience.

9:00pm The two males smoke a gram marijuana joint (Jack Herer) while we all get situated. We had tried two other times to take the Amanitas, but the conditions were not right. This time, they were perfect. Myself and the two females drink a couple beers each.

9:30pm I combined and weighed-out everyone’s dose. I combined dried Latvian A+ caps with Washington State A++ caps. (Surprisingly, one of the females was visiting from Washington, but she had never heard of Amanitas).

10:00pm We each hand-crushed our Amanitas by simply crushing them while they were in the bag. This was funny, as each had his or her own method. We had great music playing and the two males, along, with one of the females, smoked a few bowls of marijuana (Jack Herer). My roommate arrived and decided to hang out with us, but he remained pretty sober and did not take the trip. Still, he was there.

10:15pm We took our dried and now crushed Amanitas and mixed them with applesauce in a small cup until it had an oatmeal consistency. My initial dose was 9 grams of dried 65/35 Washington State A++ and Latvian A+ cap material mix with applesauce. The other male’s initial dose was 6 grams. The visiting female decided to wait to dose, but the other one’s initial dose was 4 grams. The female ate three spoonfuls of the “shroomsauce” and decided to wait. The two males finished their cups within minutes. The taste was not that bad and NOT ONE of us vomited all night!

11:00pm The female finished her initial dose and all four participants smoked a few bowls and bongloads of marijuana and everyone, but the other male, drank a couple more beers.

11:30pm The two males and the female who took the Amanitas begin to experience the initial “lift.” This was similar to being drunk, but our thoughts are very cogent. We rolled a big 4 gram marijuana (Jack Herer) joint. The other male blurts out, “I don’t got it, get it!” I smiled and said to him, “Amanita muscaria!” We all laughed and high-fived each other like old friends. I knew we were in for some fun.

12:00am Feeling great! We are all able to feel the effects of the Amanitas. We feel very connected to one another although we didn’t know each other very well. Warm rushing sensations are pulsating throughout my body and I feel my stomach beginning to tense up, but it is not uncomfortable at all. I know that the ibotenic acid contained in the dried caps is being decarboxylated (converted) into muscimol and making us trip. The second female sees how much fun we are having and decides to join-in and eats her 4 grams.

12:30am I help the second female finish the last bite or two of her dose, in addition to eating another 2-3 grams mixed with applesauce. We smoke a bowl of marijuana (Sour Diesel) and the big 4 gram joint (Jack Herer). My vision is blurry like how it is when I don’t wear my glasses, but I was wearing them. Also, my hands begin to twitch somewhat and I find that it is hard to hold on to things. Spilled beer and/or Amanita powder was a common occurrence throughout the night. The other male and female (who are dating) each ate another 2-3 grams of the Amanita-Applesauce mix and then we began to leave for a local bar.

12:45am The Amanitas are coming on really profoundly at this point. The other male decides to wash his hair before we leave. The other female and my roommate were walking much faster than the rest of us. In fact, we all were tripping pretty hard and the other male almost went back twice. The entire walk was only three blocks, but it felt WAY longer.

12:50am I decided to mention this because I think its VERY essential to having a fun trip. Along our trek to the bar, the other male began to experience what I called a “trip cycle.” Many of the negative trip reports I’d read detailed a hard to describe phenomena in which the individual feels that they gain some secret knowledge that all reality is non-existent and that if they “slow time down” or “complete some series of steps/tasks,” then they may escape or otherwise cope with what has been described on numerous reports as, “hell.” The other male stopped on the sidewalk and began describing this to me. I recognized it immediately and explained it to him. He understood and was really thankful. He came right out of it and had no further issues.

1:00am The bar was awesome and we all described that we could feel the music. We joined the other female and my roommate who were sitting at a large booth and I ordered a round of beers. However, my hand was kind of twitching again. This was a cool feeling and when I looked at my hand, I began to see outlines and tracers. The tracers, the switching of blurry to clear vision, and dark purple specks of light/waves seen under people’s feet as they walked were the only real visuals I saw (besides some pretty cool closed-eye lights before I fell asleep). I spilled most of my beer and had to order another. We decided to go to IHOP and eat. I had read that wanting to eat about 3/4ths of a way through your trip is a good sign that you’re having a good trip. So, I finished my beer and we left for IHOP.

2:00am We stop by my house on the way to IHOP where we each smoked a couple bowls of marijuana (Blueberry) and ate about 2 more grams in the sauce. By this time, the female who had dosed late was feeling great and the other two were wishing that they had initially eaten as much as I.

2:30am We were walking like we were drunk, but we were all super happy and all simultaneously cogent, yet having small little individual trips occasionally interrupted by someone’s profound thought or humorous antidote. I know that the above sentence seems contradictory, but it is similar to a Salvia divinorium trip, without the sometimes accompanying fear. Sadly, IHOP was closed. We had walked a few blocks, but we thought it was funny and it gave us something to talk about on our way back to the McDonald’s across from my place. However, it too was closed! So, we go to the 24-Hour CVS and get some frozen pizzas, White Castles, chips, and other snacks. We were acting foolish (especially the females) and perhaps could have got into a little trouble at the CVS, but we made it fine.

3:00am We all eat our various goodies and smoked a couple bowls of marijuana (Master Kush).

3:45am The male and female, who are dating, each ate 5 more grams of Amanitas in the applesauce. I ate 2-3.5 grams of Amanitas in the last bit of applesauce. Also, the other female ate 2-3 grams of Amanitas in a Yoplait strawberry vanilla yogurt cup (delicious).

4:00am We are all tripping pretty hard and experiencing a euphoric lethargy. We all take turns attempting to type-in songs on YouTube and are occasionally successful. This was fun. I knew what to type, but could not see well and my twitching hand would just mess-up and my hand would hit a couple of wrong letters. CAUTION: Spelling on Amanita muscaria may be partially impaired!

4:20am Obviously, at 4:20am we ceremoniously toke the last bowl of marijuana (Grand Daddy Purp) for the trip.

4:30am The visiting female starts saying odd sexual comments and laughing. Then, she puts a good portion of her legs out of my window and says she going outside. I live on the second floor. So, that could have been dangerous. However, it must be said that as odd as her actions may sound, we were all laughing and didn’t really take her serious. She was a little less than 3/4ths of the way in so, she was safe. She was also laughing and said she wasn’t serious. Still, I now understand the validity of some of the accounts that describe injury occurring (If anything, just by accident). I’m certain that some from the bar that night had similar (if not more severe) incidents simply by being under the influence of a few too many overpriced cocktails. The other male went to the car to get a blanket for himself and his girlfriend, who has now passed-out on the floor.

4:45am The other male arrived with the blanket, I gave them a pillow, and turned out the light. The visiting female is lying on my bed. She said, “I’m so horny!” Those of us who are awake cracked-up laughing. I laid down next to her and she said, “I’m cold.” So, I put my arm around her, but then she said that she doesn’t like to be touched. Feeling great, but not sure what to make of this girl, I just rolled over and closed my eyes. Watching the little colorful light dots swirl around, I soon fell asleep.

9:30am We all wake up feeling a little groggy, but surprisingly refreshed! We all looked a little rough and the place was littered with spilled Amanita powder in places, but we all spoke about how much we enjoyed the experience.

9:45am The other male and the 2 females leave. I cleaned-up, checked my bank account (not good, but not bad), made a couple of phone calls. Also, I smoke a bongload of marijuana (Vanilla Chronic).

12:00pm Sat-down and typed-up the experience. Smoked a bowl of marijuana (Grand Daddy Purp).

2:00pm Finish typing-up the experience. Smoked a bowl of marijuana (Jack Herer). Throughout typing the experience, I would experience extremely mild waves nausea in addition to small euphoric short-lived trip-like phenomena (e.g. body rush, light sweating).

All-in-all, I ate a total of 15-16 grams of dried Amanita muscaria (approximately 9 grams Washington State A++ caps & 7 grams of Latvian A+ caps), smoked about 4-5 grams of marijuana, and drank 6-7 beers.

The other male ate at total of 12-14 grams of dried Amanita muscaria (the couple’s ratio is a little more difficult to determine because they shared a little bit), but it was approximately 5.5-7 grams Washington State A++ caps & 7 grams of Latvian A+ caps), smoked 2 grams of marijuana, and drank one beer.

The Other male’s girlfriend ate a total of 6.5-8 grams of dried Amanita muscaria (approximately 4 grams Washington State A++ caps & 3.5-4 grams of Latvian A+ caps), smoked 0.5-1 gram of marijuana, and drank 6-8 beers.

The visiting female ate a total of 7-9 grams of dried Amanita muscaria (approximately 5 grams Washington State A++ caps & 3.5-4 grams of Latvian A+ caps), smoked 1 gram of marijuana, and drank 6-8 beers.

Thanks for listening to my trip report. As I said, I did a lot of research and enjoyed reading both the long and short ones. I feel that my report was necessary because I found that most descriptions were somewhat negative and/or chalked full of warnings about vomiting and/or overdosing. I wanted to contribute something depicting Amanitas as a fun experience used for recreational and relationship-building occasions. However, it was due to these somewhat foreboding reports, that I gained a healthy respect for the Soma and dosed appropriately. I was even able to tell what stage of the trip I was in, due to the reports I have read. As an atheist, I did not experience any spiritual awakenings, but I did perceive a heightened deeper awareness with my fellow trippers. Upon further retrospect, I think going out in public was not the wisest decision, just because of what could happen. Not too much unlike a night of bar-hopping, but not exactly the same. Thankfully, we had no involvement with the police, as any contact with the pigs probably wouldn’t have ended well. Also, I would probably deem my last 5-6 grams of Amanitas I ate as somewhat of a waste, but who knows? I think the quality of the caps is essential. I got mine from a shaman friend I met at an inter-religious dialog while I was still at seminary, but I’m sure there are some good online shamans. Thanks again for reading.
