Reply to comment by JuliaThaddeus12 in TIFU by eating shrooms and violently forcing my girlfriend to throw up by blackcatonacid

I don’t think this is that abnormal tbh. Don’t get me wrong, this sounds like a uniquely horrifying experience, and 3 grams does seem like a low dose for these effects. But even the cleanest psychedelics can 100% produce these types of experiences in the right quantity and with the right set and setting. Ego loss is a hell of a thing.

It’s not the ego loss that tips me off, it’s the timeline and the extremity of it that makes me concerned about either the potency or species of shrooms he ingested. But it’s totally possible that he has something psychologically off with him, I’m not eliminating that possibility. If his gf was fine and only he lost it, then maybe there’s something going on with him.

Yeah I agree, the timeline is odd and, while I’m not a mushroom expert, I haven’t experienced anything like that before. Could be a weird species I guess, I think there’s a lot we don’t know with mushrooms and other psychedelics. It’s also possible they metabolized them weird and had a latent intense reaction, and both are psychologically normal. Someone else in the thread mentioned tolerance since it sounds like they were tripping often, and that could also be a factor.
