About 6 months ago, 3 my friends and I planned a road trip to one of the most scenically beautiful hill stations in our country. People go there mainly to try out shrooms and enjoy the scenic beauty between the clouds at over 2000ft above sea level while they trip. It was an 8 hour drive from where we live and we reached our cottage at around 4pm. A friend of mine, let's call him Josh already had a contract who would give us the mushrooms. Josh and I walked around 1km to score them. We scored 5 dozens, a dozen for each of us and some extra just in case and planned to take them the next morning. We stayed up drinking and smoking weed that night.

I have had experiences with other drugs like MDMA (once), ecstasy (once) and weed (quite regularly), so I knew what I was getting into. I was excited to try out shrooms and had been researching and reading experiences about the drug for over 2 weeks.

Fast forward the next morning, Josh and I woke up early and headed to grab some breakfast while my other two friends, let's call them Randy and Patrick, wanted to take the shrooms on an empty stomach. I had an omlette, some ramen noodles and a glass of avocado juice. I regretted having such a rich breakfast later during my trip.

At around 8am, we decided to eat the shrooms by dipping it in honey. I had 12, Randy had 15, Josh had 14 and Patrick had around 7-8 shrooms. Around 40 minutes in, I could not feel a thing and popped 3 more, 10 mins in I felt light headed and calm, like on weed, and boom! I was involuntarily smiling, that's when I felt, Wow, this feels really good. I felt really restless for about 15-20 mins as I was looking for a sweet spot to sit and enjoy the mountain view from our cottage. There was another cottage next to ours, they were also tripping on shrooms and had put a song on repeat which kinda made us lose track of time later in the trip. Meanwhile, Josh could not feel a thing 1 hour after consuming the shrooms and decided to smoke 2 joints. After smoking, Josh went into the cottage and passed out on the bed for over 2-3 hours. I was still trying to find the sweet spot to sit and chill but sadly could not find one.

Two hours into the trip, I could not feel my body and it was really hard to keep my orientation intact. I was constantly laughing and smiling at every sound I heard, be it the music played by the people in the cottage next to ours, people talking or the birds chirping. My alertness increased a lot, even the mildest of the sound, I was able to hear. Thoughts in my mind were racing, I started questioning everything around me like what is the meaning of all this. I started retrospecting everything that happened in my life. It was blissful none the less and quite spiritual in a way. I felt really euphoric.

Around 4 hours into the trip, I could feel my stomach acting up and everything felt very intense for the next 30 mins. I decided to go inside the cottage and lay on the bed. This only made things worse. I felt really sick in the stomach and I knew if I did not puke, this would only get worse. I went into the washroom and tried to puke but I just couldn't. To distract myself, I kept looking at myself in the mirror, my eyes had become really small and were quite red. This was a surprise for me because my eyes usually don't go red even on weed. While I was staring at myself in the mirror, I could not help myself but smile really wide. It felt really good and this went on for about 5 minutes. But I could not help myself but puke now. My intense high was gone now and I was back to how I was 2 hours into my trip.

I went out and smoked a cigarette with Randy. I was still very restless and alert to the sounds around me. At this point, around 5 hours in, Josh comes out of bed and joins us. The first thing he tells is, "What is the meaning of all this?". He was having a normal conversation with all of us and stop in between a sentence as he would lose his chain of thought, it was quite funny when he did that. We chilled for about an hour and I could feel the trip coming down 6-7 hours in. To my surprise, the coming down on shrooms was very calm experience in a way. The mushrooms had surely drained almost every ounce of energy in our bodies and we decided to order something to eat, but I found it really hard to eat. I rehydrated myself with water instead. All in all, the experience was a good one.
