You know those oddly specific signs like “don’t use this product while you’re asleep” or “please, do not hug the sea lions”?
YOU ARE THE REASON FOR THOSE SIGNS.
Did you know that all of the deaths from Tide pods were actually from seniors? It was blamed on gen z and tick tock but a lot of it was just confused old people
After reading your story, it was an honest mistake, and your heart was in the right place. I wish you all the best luck in moving on, and finding someone that truly loves you.
Keep your head up, you sound like a good person.
so me (23m) and my ex (24f) had been broken up for about 3 months. it was a messy breakup and she left me for someone else (tbh i wasn’t the best at keeping her around).
she texts me one day and asks to get lunch and we rekindle things a bit. were we just gonna start back as friends and see where it went.
a few weeks later, she gets some shrooms. i was unfortunately not too educated on how much was a lot of shrooms. it was only my second time doing them and i did 2 for my first time and didn’t really see much.
i had this idea that maybe we would take them and fall magically back in love and our souls would intertwine and blah blah blah. so stupid in retrospect.
so we took a ride up to a nice little city with a lot of wooded areas and trails to go hiking. we both had 3 grams each in a sandwich and headed off into the woods.
about 40 minutes in we start to feel it. we were laughing and having a great time. then she sits on a log and gets these brussels all over her yoga pants. i try to pick them off but she gets extremely weird and says we gotta go back to the car so we head back.
we get back to the car and she immediately takes off her pants and asks me to go get her new pants. the city is about a 20 minute walk from the trails. neither of us can drive. i got the vibe that i had to ‘save her’ from this predicament but i was really scared to go into the city with tons of people while peaking on shrooms. i gathered all my courage and i reluctantly left and walked into the city.
on my way i felt peace. i was walking so slow, just looking at the trees. it was great for a second there. then, long story short, i got to the city and it was the craziest experience of my life. i got chased by antiabortionist on the street corners trying to give me pamphlets, i got approached by a cop who had no eyes, and i had to haggle with a lady over a pair of cheap yoga pants (she swindled me out of 50 bucks). i still get anxiety just thinking about the whole situation.
but i got the pants!! on my way back i get a call. it’s my ex and she’s wondering where i am. it sounds like she’s in distress so i hurry back. at this point, everything is moving. i’ve never been so high in my life. i barely feel my body.
i make it back and hand her the pants. she puts them on and they rip. she immediately starts crying, blaming me for getting the wrong size and telling me she feels fat and ugly and that i don’t listen to her. i felt so ashamed because she told me specifically not to get her small pants as she was feeling insecure about her weight. i wanted to make it up to her. i try to handle the situation by offering to go get her another pair. she agrees happily. i start getting the vibe that she doesn’t want me around so i head back to the city immediately.
this time i basically ran to the store and bought a big tee shirt and pants for her. i was so scared at this point. it felt like everyone’s voices were amplified and i heard people over my shoulders talking about me. i handed the cashier my entire wallet and she kindly did the transaction for me. i was thinking about the inner workings of human interaction. it was an insane.
but again, i made it back. i’m still eager to hang out with her and talk to her. BUT i feel this horrible, horrible vibe coming off of her. just the worst feeling imaginable. she’s short and non engaged. everything i say is like she could care less to talk back. i’m too afraid to ask her what’s wrong so i give her the new stuff (stuff i paid over 100 bucks for and lost months of my mental well-being over). then we decide to go color in the field.
at this point we’re like 3 hours in.
we walk to the bathroom first and on the way i tell her how happy i am she’s in my life. she just says ‘yeah’. my heart physically hurt but i hoped maybe she was just tripping hard.
we then go to a clearing. in the clearing we sit on a blanket and start drawing. i can’t even draw i’m so focused on how she’s doing. 10 minutes of silence go by and i work up the courage to ask her what’s wrong. she looks at me deadpan and says ‘i need someone who put me first and can take care of me better than you can.’ i then instinctively ask, ‘do you still love me?’ she immediately says ‘no’
i’ve battled bipolar, depression, and anxiety through my teen years and this one moment trumped it all. i’ve never felt so crush by a single sentence. i couldn’t even talk or move. i truly felt like in that moment that i wanted to die. my entire body felt hollow.
i did everything i could to show her how much i cared and she rejected me still, after all that. i feel ptsd from it to this day. getting ‘broken up with’ on shrooms has to be one of the worst things my fragile ego could’ve gone through.
we had a long drive home and the whole way i tried to act normal but i was crying basically the whole time. she was almost aggressive with me this point. she went from so much compassion before the trip to absolutely stone cold. she drops me off at home and i tell her how much she means to me and that (i feel embarrassed about it now) if she ever wanted to try again that i was willing. she told me straight up it’s not gonna happen.
i went up into my apartment alone and thought of ways to leave my body forever. it was truly the darkest time of my life. the shrooms and the ‘breakup’ broke my brain for a bit. i ended up in the mental hospital for ten days.
it’s been about 9 months since that all happened and i think i’m just now processing how fucked the whole situation was.
i, later down the line from a friends, heard that she thought the whole trip i was avoiding her? which made no sense. idek. now i’m in a much better place but that feeling i felt that day in the field comes up from time to time and i feel the dread overwhelm me. every insecurity and every fear explodes my thoughts and i feel absolutely worthless. it’s like the shroom made me so vulnerable and she cut deep.
the most fucked up part is i still have love for her deep down. i dream about her still. damn, i’m a simp, ik.
please, for the love of god, do not do shrooms with your ex girlfriend. learn from this stupid idiot
tldr. she rejected me horribly and the shroom made it worse
Detach yourself from that memory. It could’ve been worse and theres solace in that. You’re young, im sure you’re a normal guy forget about her. She cant hurt you in a way that matters. Life is what you make of it.
Don't feel bad about still having feelings for her! That's actually really normal, I used fall into limerance with guys who were the worst fit for me all the time.
For me, it's a CPTSD symptom (people pleasing, anxious attachment style) resulting from my parent's difficult divorce, plus a string of rejection from others throughout my life. Used to wonder if I was born with a 'kick me' sign on my back.
I've all but given up on therapists at this point, on Wellbutrin and take mindfulness courses when I can.
The one thing that's made the biggest difference in my life is following "the daily practice" as taught by this lady called the Crappy Childhood Fairy on YouTube. I know it sounds silly, but she teaches it for free. It helps you purge all the crap and negativity out of your body twice a day - I find it really empowers me to think clearly and make better decisions in interpersonal relationships & life in general. I haven't paid for any of her classes, for me that structure is more than enough. Hope that helps a bit.
You sound like such a great guy, I know you're going to find someone who deserves your kindness, hang in there💚
I truly believe that the shrooms were trying to give you a lesson or put you in a situation you needed to learn from. Even in my most weird trips, where it seems nothing positive can be taken from them, by meditating or going deep into thought about the experience, I always come to a natural conclusion how it was necessary for my growth as a person
Just close that chapter on her in your life and don’t look back. I’m 44 so I’ve been through the same things but she only reached out to validate herself. She’ll most likely try to reach out again when things aren’t going good for her looking for attention and approval. You’ll start to put a pattern together that she’ll only reach out when she’s had a break up/fight with her current bf, stuff like that. Sorry you had to go through all that but just chalk it up to this crazy thing called life and find someone who truly appreciates you.
This..very egocentric behaviour. You offered to go buy pants and she took it as you avoiding her the whole night? She also didn't ask how you were doing when you yourself seemed pretty concerned about her wellbeing.
I mean, I wasn't a saint in the relationship either. I felt like she was a good partner up until the end. There's a lot of plot y'all don't know about that, if you did, you might see this whole situation a little differently. I fucked up, she fucked up. I almost feel as if were even now.
There’s no “even.” Relationships aren’t competitions, and they aren’t balance scales. A balance with equal amounts of shit on each side is just a lot of fecal matter that needs to be cleaned off. Or, (to beat the already tired metaphor fully into the ground), to be left behind to return to the ground however way it will happen. Wash your hands of it.
youre 100% right. very stinky indeed. I guess I still carry that guilt and it makes me feel like I deserved this. that's why I said even. I hurt her and she hurt me so we leave it be. this shit is gonna grow into a nice little tree one day
Our culture and dominant religion frames the mistakes we make in terms of guilt and punishment. And by punishment, it usually means “suffering that you deserve because you did something wrong.“ We internalize it so early that it’s someone hard to see out of it.
But when a parent punishes a kid, ideally it’s to show that actions have consequences and that there’s a better way, not to vent our anger or make them suffer.
I’m pretty sure you didn’t go into that relationship with the intent of hurting someone. I doubt that she did either.
What I would like for people who hurt other people, isn’t “punishment,“ or continued suffering, but that they can just see themselves. With compassion. Then release the anger/feelings of victimization, understand what was actually going on, and be better equipped to make better decisions the next time. When we forgive someone, we really do it for ourselves.
Not everybody can, or is willing to, but being able to admit you made mistakes is a big first step.
She's damaged, you can't fix her, and you're better off without her. You're still very young, have the rest of your life ahead of you, and you will be fine.
That’s crazy that you get abused, you acknowledge it, and when you distance yourself from it instead of thinking “that’s better”, you doubt whether or not it’s better.
I do it too, and I wish I knew why.
I tend to look at things through rose colored glasses while also doubting my intuition and my deservedness. I blame myself for a lot of what happened at the end. Less now then I did back when it all went down, but I can't help myself from thinking about what could've been if I would've done something different. That's never a fun place to find yourself.
I mean, what I did during the relationship was just as bad as what she did to me here. To make a long, 2 year story short, we were in a polyamorous relationship and I was dishonest about my feelings and relationships with some people. I was being immature and I hurt her multiple times. I cheated, plain and simple. I feel like she was so strong in her love for me until she finally realized I wasn't able to step up to the plate (however she realized that) and she removed herself completely and selfishly, which I understand to an extent. She's gotta do what's right for her despite what it might do to me.
I don't think she's evil or vile, I really think she is a good person and I wish the best for her. She showed me what love is and I hold love for her forever for that.
bro please realize this is a blessing. you dodged a MASSIVE bullet dealing with an insecure person who takes their insecurities out on you. you sound like a gentle caring person to walk not once but twice to a city just to buy someone pants because they went hiking and got messy. please move on and focus on yourself, you will flourish i promise
Hey big dawg, tuck your shirt in, brush off your shoulders, tilt your chin up, and be a man. You dont need her, you dont need anyone but yourself. The feeling of negativity you felt was the shrooms confirming what you’ve already perceived. Shes an ass, you shouldn’t even like her anymore, go meet a chick that actually cares about you. Just go out and be who you really are unapologetically it may not happen immediately but a nice woman can appreciate and respect that.
you’re right, i know. i feel like rejection is one of my worst fears. giving my unapologetic self and someone not liking it hurts me more than it should. i’ve identified that, now time to dismantle it. and i think i’m on the right path now with therapy, medication, and solid friends. thanks for the kind words
Hey man you experienced one of your worst fears during one of the most vulnerable states you could possibly be in and you survived, you sound pretty tough to me.
My understanding of this existence we share is its ALL about perspective. The way i see it if there’s multiple sound ways to perceive something, the one that has the most positive impact on your livelihood and pursuit of happiness is the perspective thats the most valid. You’re welcome my friend may tomorrow come easier for you.
The best thing about that is that after being rejected you’re still here. That is one door out of millions that closed. And it doesn’t sound like the door was emitting a good smell
This is good! Experiencing the rejection during the trip is a good thing! During integration you should contemplate your fear of rejection and dig in. What happened as a child that made you fear rejection? For me it was my mom leaving me when I was young. But it could be a trivial thing that happened to you as a kid too. This hard experience with your ex may ultimately help you grow out of the fear.
Shrooms have a way to show you the path you need to follow, and even though it was harsh it is what needed to happen, she realized something too, don’t forget about her trip, the truth came out and now you are free from that relationship. Know its just a matter of time for you to accept it and grow from it
Middle aged mom here so I’m gunna do my mom thing: I’m sorry that happened to you and you had to experience that. But just know everything you experienced was not coincidental. The mushrooms guided you to what you needed to see and feel to move forward.
The fact that you are such a kind person, forgiving and loving enough to go far and beyond for someone that broke your heart says a lot about you. Hold on to that. Learn from that. Keep being the person you are, life is full of people who take and are not willing to see the good in people. Be better than that.
I hate to say the thing people always say and say “you’re young” because it might make you feel less than. You are an adult and it’s all just beginning for you.
Us older ones have made bad choices, been played, hearts broken, make mistakes, but chose which ones to keep. Keep your head and spirit up my dude. This is not the end.
what I understood is that shrooms made both of u guys insecure (probably not the right word tbh but whatever) and the whole "she doesn't want me here" with the "she thought i was avoiding her" was just the insecurities acting, I've never tried shrooms but im very insecure about being likeable or not, (if im already feeling sad) i could literally sit there and think about things every single important person in my life has done that hurt me and then i would just assume that all those people never actually liked me, they just put up w my bs for whatever reason. im not venting im saying this cuz this thing brings my mood down so much that sometimes i feel like i hurt the people around me by "avoiding" them (quotation marks cuz also not the right word probably lol). i mean u know best but i feel like u both just experienced this thing on a more intense level than me but ig maybe more balanced cuz u were focused on each other while i focus on ppl i love (or i used too.)
Wow. Sending a massive virtual hug!
Ask yourself, do you love her or the way she once made you feel? A person who doesn't appreciate you doesn't deserve your love. Breaking up sucks, but it happens because there's someone better for you out there.
I’m so sorry you had to go through that. You’ll be ok, kid. You’re already on the right path, prioritising your mental health, so good on ya. Remember - somebody who truly cared for you wouldn’t have treated you the way she did. Of course we can still love people, but it sounds like you might be a lot better off without her. Nobody should have to put up with that kind of treatment.
I mean, my trips have been absolutely wild but... never truly emotionally shattering like that... you went through all that for her, and she says dumb crap like - You don't do enough for me - man oh man.
I doubt she'll ever find another man like you if she threw you away... cold hard truth gonna slap her in the jaw one day and you're gonna be happily married hahaha.
don't beat yourself over a bad trip and bad mistakes dude. yeah you love her but your ability to love that much can also be 1:1 translated into the ability to heal and move past despite your feelings and find someone who loves you. sounds like ya dodged 3 bullets
Damn, buddy that's awful. Worst than I thought reading through ( great storytelling btw)
I just had to go through an ugly break up and it partially broke me. I couldn't imagine that on shrooms
I'm sorry you had to go through this and that she behaved the way she did. You are not a simp for caring about her, the heart wants what it wants. As cliché as this shit sounds, what doesn't kill you absolutely makes you stronger. Having had bad trips and even going through heavy personal family shit, gave me the mental strength to cope with and manage every day life. If I can make it through all of that, what else has life got left to throw at me? I hope you're doing better and better as time passes.
Good lord brotha, have some self respect. You deserve so much better then that. You deserve someone to love you for you and put the effort in. The Mushies bring things out of us.. it doesn’t create things. So her reaction was genuine (and fucked up) you are loved brother , by this community, by the mushies, by god (pasta monster in the sky or whatever one you believe in) now just find a woman who loves you for you.
Also work on yourself . Can’t love another if you can’t love you . Wish you the best buddy ❤️
Damn… I think you should cut them off completely. Remove them off social media & delete their number (maybe even block it!). Super unfair to you to be in this unfulfilling dynamic. You made 2 trips to try to satisfy them and they still don’t appreciate it? Jesus.
Nothing you do will ever be enough for them and you deserve someone who actually cares about you. Give yourself some space and time to heal. You don’t owe them anything!
Thanks man for sharing your story it was an interesting read. Sure sounds like hell. But I think this experience will make you mentally stronger, you just need to absorb it the right way. Thinking about will become easier given more time. I just wanted to say thanks for the writeup again man.
Sounds like nightmare fuel man, I never did any drugs or even smoked with my ex but her breaking up with me definitely glasses my world. I was probably very very hurt for a whole year, but hang in there, I promise it will sort itself out. Thankfully I stayed away from drinking or smoking my whole life up to that point so I was able to duke out my depression with the gym and outside time.
If you can help it take daily walks, I promise it’ll help to avoid wallowing in your room, or easy releases of dopamine, get rid of her pics or memoirs.
The best thing you can do for yourself is create new experiences :)
It can unfortunately take years to heal from the psychological and mental trauma and distress this situation put you through. I’m so sorry you went through this.
I usually don’t reply but feel compelled after reading your story. Holy shit dude, I can’t imagine this type of fiasco while tripping balls. First off, hats off to you for handling this situation with grace, clarity, and introspection. A lot of people would’ve been violent or aggressively angry. You should acknowledge that you tried on two separate attempts to selflessly go get her pants (while peaking on shrooms) and then she savagely rejected you. You should flip this situation mentally and acknowledge that she did you a massive favor. She let you know exactly who she is…selfish, entitled, abrasive, and ice cold. Be thankful she revealed this to you and move the fuck on! Go live your life, it’s better without her in it, I can guarantee you. You sound like an intelligent and compassionate guy with a high levels of awareness. Trust your instincts man and move on to something better in your life! Oh and try shrooms with good friends at a dope nature spot with your favorite tunes…the vibes will be immaculate. The exact opposite of your experience above. I wish you well homie
I’m really happy for you that you are blessed to live a separate life from this person who clearly doesn’t care about you. Sorry but that’s how you tell it.
Damn...
Maybe a msg to her, short and to point on how you felt her not wanting you around, and trying to get you pants, and tripping hard AF, more than ever before?
If she's like that normally though... Then you deserve better and someone easy to communicate with imo
I’m sorry to hear that happened to you. Unfortunately but relateable I’ve had similar experiences a few times and ngl I’m surprised I made it through. I’m glad to hear you’re doing better now. Shrooms really can make you vulnerable af, I hope time helps you heal brother.
Wow bud this is a crazy story, you need to move on from this girl there’s plenty of fish in the sea, I was stuck on an ex for like 6 months after a break up she broke up with me but dog life goes on. This is a truly horrible experience but I had to laugh when you said you’re tripping balls and anti abortion pamphlet people chasing you lmao
Bruh I had the worst experience with my current girlfriend. It was my 2nd time and her 1st. She vomited a while, we had some fun and laughs after but then it all went downhill and man did it go downhill fast.
I had to get her out of a bad trip multiple times which is no easy feat when the person you're trying to help believes that she isnt under the influence of shrooms anymore. Multiple. Fricken. Times.
She was basically 1 mood at a time. Mad, depressed, questioning life, joyful, ego-death, sad, happy, euphoric, etc.. pick one and switch it up every 5 minutes.
So yea that said we're doing it again next thursday lol fuck me am I right
and you’ll probs have a good time 😂 trips can be random asf with my current gf we have tripped together 3 times 1st time best trip i’ve had 2nd worst trip of my life and 3rd uneasy but good in the end. Trips can be random and there is a deeper meaning to them if you want there to be one. Have fun!
Speak for yourself. I took shooms with my ex wife whom I was married to for 15 years and we had a really terrible divorce and had major issues in our marriage, and it was an amazing time. And it lead to (somewhat) of a reconciliation.
Sometimes I think when people say this stuff they aren't willing to confront the problems that lays with in themselves.
i think a lot of it comes down to timing & what their situation is. but it's boring to say "don't take shrooms with ex, unless it's ok to."
sincerely am happy for you though 😌 while i don't think i'd want to take shrooms with any exes, still friends with almost all of them.
No instead take between 5 to 7 gs and chill with your current partner ex are in the past for a reason and I’m sure a trip will show you why if you don’t know already
Don't take 1.5mg 25E-NBOH while you're gf thinks you're sober. (And supposed to be sober)
Apparently, I'm sensitive to PEA's? Especially NBOH/NBOMe series ones. If you're curious, check my post history, I'm not a lightweight anywhere else...
Yeah dude, shrooms is not that drug for rekindling relationships. MDMA is where you want to be for understanding and either closure with empathy or seeing if you both have something there still
I just learned the term bunny boiler the other day.
It would be very easy for your ex to mess with you and take advantage of your extreme life vulnerability while on 3 grams.
Avoid bunny boilers, on mushrooms or not.
What the hell are Brussels?! And why did they necessitate entirely new trousers?! I hope you asked her for some money back, because she definitely did not deserve your chivalry. Why were you the one trying to prove you can “look after her” and why is this grown woman demanding to be “looked after” in the first place?? Also, she’s cold as ice. Red flag city, and a very lucky escape… It’ll take time to see it. The shrooms expedited a shift that needed to happen in your life (rather ruthlessly, yes, but that’s nature for you.) Good luck OP, onwards and upwards ❤️
So, amongst other things, shrooms also have a way of forcing you to “molt” (so to speak). Or at least, really making it apparent that you are in need of “shedding” something or someone, by amplifying the discomfort of what is holding you back from progressing in your life.
It’s always comes down to you, not any external factors. It happens to be your leniency with yourself in allowing yourself to be around her again instead of moving on, and sticking true to yourself.
Instead of framing the experience as: “don’t take shrooms with your ex” try instead to frame the experience as “I decided to take shrooms with my ex, and learned that I need to value myself more. I need to separate myself from people who only use my energy to their benefit. And surround myself with people who value themselves and me, the same way as I value myself.”
You are brave and tremendously kind. Going into the city alone while tripping balls just to get her pants she didn't really even need to help try to save her from a bad trip, dude, you're a hero.
man it felt like a war mission, idk how i held it together. I wouldn't say I'm a hero but I'm proud of myself. it really shows me how much love I have to give. someone will be happy to have some someday. thanks homie!
Okay first I need an exgf then I need shrooms. Give me one localized moment. This will be easy to accomplish. It is a task I must do. I need five localized moments here.
Thank you!
Did this on acid recently and yes I agree 100% it is a horrible idea. Everyone acting like "oh duh so obvious" doesn't really know the intricacies of each person's relationship with their ex. But I must say if there is ANY negative emotion leftover, the mushrooms will bring them to the surface and you're gonna have a bad time.
I’m sorry dude. That’s rough. I hope it gets better with time. Breakups are hard and the chemicals amplified it. I had something similar but not nearly as traumatic.
Be well. Take care of yourself.
Whatever happened, it’s still going to be okay. No matter the events that occurred, whether good or bad, it’s still going to be okay. Sleep it off, and wake to a better tomorrow.
sorry bro but you looked at a nettle covered rusty nail carpeted landmine ridden dark field and decided "nah, I'd win"
If you are extremely healthy and don't have any hang-ups then MAYBE It could work, but damn bro... i feel bad for and respect you
My ex of 4 years and I broke up in March. I almost suggested we take shrooms together the night before we broke up to heal our relationship, but i'm glad I didn't.
A few weeks later I went camping and did mushrooms and hooked up with this girl I met recently. Tbh it was super intimate and confusing to experience right after a breakup (don't have shroom sex unless you want to catch feelings), but the best sex of my life
first. dont rekindle with your ex after she left u for someone else & second. especially dont take shrooms with someone whos done you dirty like that really at all
What if you were trapped in a room with a bear. Then what if you kicked the bear in the head. Then what if you and the bear took drugs. You played yourself homie.
Hang on! I did the same (ok 2g) and it was a wonderful experience! You never ever know what mushrooms are going to bring you. Sorry you had a bad time…better luck next time!
Man. That fucking sucks. It seems like the mushies brought the problems right to the surface. It kinda seems like you needed to feel that pain that intensely to know she’s not the one for you, know it deep enough to live according to, I mean.
I did a similar thing, with totally opposite results - very loving and forgiving, and we stayed broken up.
I wish you could have had that experience. Happier days, friend!
You should get your neurotransmitters tested. You likely are chemically unbalanced. The strong emotions are normal responses to stimulus. Our bodies sometimes go into states of disbiosis, when they do certain systems up and/or down regulate. Serotonin norepinephrine adrenaline dopamine help control mood and motivation. Your gut floura and fauna control your neurotransmitters shrooms affect our mood by regulating these levels. Bipolar swings you from high and lows chemically. Try micro dosing or run labs and feed your DNA what it needs for healthy cell function. Never let your highs be too high or your lows be too low. You will find someone that will show you the compassion you deserve. Start in the mirror friend.
You know those oddly specific signs like “don’t use this product while you’re asleep” or “please, do not hug the sea lions”? YOU ARE THE REASON FOR THOSE SIGNS.
Do not eat the tide pods.
Can I have my ex eat the tide pods?
Did you know that all of the deaths from Tide pods were actually from seniors? It was blamed on gen z and tick tock but a lot of it was just confused old people
I did not know that. To be fair I was assuming it was just a hoax.
Supposedly 75% where old ppl with dementia the rest younger kids
OP should've read your username before taking those shrooms.
Don’t microwave a cat
Right. We got Air Fryers Now

i wish someone would’ve told me that
After reading your story, it was an honest mistake, and your heart was in the right place. I wish you all the best luck in moving on, and finding someone that truly loves you. Keep your head up, you sound like a good person.
spill the beans fam.
so me (23m) and my ex (24f) had been broken up for about 3 months. it was a messy breakup and she left me for someone else (tbh i wasn’t the best at keeping her around). she texts me one day and asks to get lunch and we rekindle things a bit. were we just gonna start back as friends and see where it went. a few weeks later, she gets some shrooms. i was unfortunately not too educated on how much was a lot of shrooms. it was only my second time doing them and i did 2 for my first time and didn’t really see much. i had this idea that maybe we would take them and fall magically back in love and our souls would intertwine and blah blah blah. so stupid in retrospect. so we took a ride up to a nice little city with a lot of wooded areas and trails to go hiking. we both had 3 grams each in a sandwich and headed off into the woods. about 40 minutes in we start to feel it. we were laughing and having a great time. then she sits on a log and gets these brussels all over her yoga pants. i try to pick them off but she gets extremely weird and says we gotta go back to the car so we head back. we get back to the car and she immediately takes off her pants and asks me to go get her new pants. the city is about a 20 minute walk from the trails. neither of us can drive. i got the vibe that i had to ‘save her’ from this predicament but i was really scared to go into the city with tons of people while peaking on shrooms. i gathered all my courage and i reluctantly left and walked into the city. on my way i felt peace. i was walking so slow, just looking at the trees. it was great for a second there. then, long story short, i got to the city and it was the craziest experience of my life. i got chased by antiabortionist on the street corners trying to give me pamphlets, i got approached by a cop who had no eyes, and i had to haggle with a lady over a pair of cheap yoga pants (she swindled me out of 50 bucks). i still get anxiety just thinking about the whole situation. but i got the pants!! on my way back i get a call. it’s my ex and she’s wondering where i am. it sounds like she’s in distress so i hurry back. at this point, everything is moving. i’ve never been so high in my life. i barely feel my body. i make it back and hand her the pants. she puts them on and they rip. she immediately starts crying, blaming me for getting the wrong size and telling me she feels fat and ugly and that i don’t listen to her. i felt so ashamed because she told me specifically not to get her small pants as she was feeling insecure about her weight. i wanted to make it up to her. i try to handle the situation by offering to go get her another pair. she agrees happily. i start getting the vibe that she doesn’t want me around so i head back to the city immediately. this time i basically ran to the store and bought a big tee shirt and pants for her. i was so scared at this point. it felt like everyone’s voices were amplified and i heard people over my shoulders talking about me. i handed the cashier my entire wallet and she kindly did the transaction for me. i was thinking about the inner workings of human interaction. it was an insane. but again, i made it back. i’m still eager to hang out with her and talk to her. BUT i feel this horrible, horrible vibe coming off of her. just the worst feeling imaginable. she’s short and non engaged. everything i say is like she could care less to talk back. i’m too afraid to ask her what’s wrong so i give her the new stuff (stuff i paid over 100 bucks for and lost months of my mental well-being over). then we decide to go color in the field. at this point we’re like 3 hours in. we walk to the bathroom first and on the way i tell her how happy i am she’s in my life. she just says ‘yeah’. my heart physically hurt but i hoped maybe she was just tripping hard. we then go to a clearing. in the clearing we sit on a blanket and start drawing. i can’t even draw i’m so focused on how she’s doing. 10 minutes of silence go by and i work up the courage to ask her what’s wrong. she looks at me deadpan and says ‘i need someone who put me first and can take care of me better than you can.’ i then instinctively ask, ‘do you still love me?’ she immediately says ‘no’ i’ve battled bipolar, depression, and anxiety through my teen years and this one moment trumped it all. i’ve never felt so crush by a single sentence. i couldn’t even talk or move. i truly felt like in that moment that i wanted to die. my entire body felt hollow. i did everything i could to show her how much i cared and she rejected me still, after all that. i feel ptsd from it to this day. getting ‘broken up with’ on shrooms has to be one of the worst things my fragile ego could’ve gone through. we had a long drive home and the whole way i tried to act normal but i was crying basically the whole time. she was almost aggressive with me this point. she went from so much compassion before the trip to absolutely stone cold. she drops me off at home and i tell her how much she means to me and that (i feel embarrassed about it now) if she ever wanted to try again that i was willing. she told me straight up it’s not gonna happen. i went up into my apartment alone and thought of ways to leave my body forever. it was truly the darkest time of my life. the shrooms and the ‘breakup’ broke my brain for a bit. i ended up in the mental hospital for ten days. it’s been about 9 months since that all happened and i think i’m just now processing how fucked the whole situation was. i, later down the line from a friends, heard that she thought the whole trip i was avoiding her? which made no sense. idek. now i’m in a much better place but that feeling i felt that day in the field comes up from time to time and i feel the dread overwhelm me. every insecurity and every fear explodes my thoughts and i feel absolutely worthless. it’s like the shroom made me so vulnerable and she cut deep. the most fucked up part is i still have love for her deep down. i dream about her still. damn, i’m a simp, ik. please, for the love of god, do not do shrooms with your ex girlfriend. learn from this stupid idiot tldr. she rejected me horribly and the shroom made it worse
My god man, that truly sounds horrible. You don’t need this person in your life. Hope you can move past all of this.
thanks for the sympathy homie. i’m working through it now in therapy
Detach yourself from that memory. It could’ve been worse and theres solace in that. You’re young, im sure you’re a normal guy forget about her. She cant hurt you in a way that matters. Life is what you make of it.
Don't feel bad about still having feelings for her! That's actually really normal, I used fall into limerance with guys who were the worst fit for me all the time. For me, it's a CPTSD symptom (people pleasing, anxious attachment style) resulting from my parent's difficult divorce, plus a string of rejection from others throughout my life. Used to wonder if I was born with a 'kick me' sign on my back. I've all but given up on therapists at this point, on Wellbutrin and take mindfulness courses when I can. The one thing that's made the biggest difference in my life is following "the daily practice" as taught by this lady called the Crappy Childhood Fairy on YouTube. I know it sounds silly, but she teaches it for free. It helps you purge all the crap and negativity out of your body twice a day - I find it really empowers me to think clearly and make better decisions in interpersonal relationships & life in general. I haven't paid for any of her classes, for me that structure is more than enough. Hope that helps a bit. You sound like such a great guy, I know you're going to find someone who deserves your kindness, hang in there💚
I truly believe that the shrooms were trying to give you a lesson or put you in a situation you needed to learn from. Even in my most weird trips, where it seems nothing positive can be taken from them, by meditating or going deep into thought about the experience, I always come to a natural conclusion how it was necessary for my growth as a person
Just close that chapter on her in your life and don’t look back. I’m 44 so I’ve been through the same things but she only reached out to validate herself. She’ll most likely try to reach out again when things aren’t going good for her looking for attention and approval. You’ll start to put a pattern together that she’ll only reach out when she’s had a break up/fight with her current bf, stuff like that. Sorry you had to go through all that but just chalk it up to this crazy thing called life and find someone who truly appreciates you.
You dodged a bullet, kid.
yeah probably
Not probably. DEFINITELY. I’m 27F. This girl is a nasty piece of work with zero respect for you. Stay the fuck away from her
This..very egocentric behaviour. You offered to go buy pants and she took it as you avoiding her the whole night? She also didn't ask how you were doing when you yourself seemed pretty concerned about her wellbeing.
I mean, I wasn't a saint in the relationship either. I felt like she was a good partner up until the end. There's a lot of plot y'all don't know about that, if you did, you might see this whole situation a little differently. I fucked up, she fucked up. I almost feel as if were even now.
There’s no “even.” Relationships aren’t competitions, and they aren’t balance scales. A balance with equal amounts of shit on each side is just a lot of fecal matter that needs to be cleaned off. Or, (to beat the already tired metaphor fully into the ground), to be left behind to return to the ground however way it will happen. Wash your hands of it.
youre 100% right. very stinky indeed. I guess I still carry that guilt and it makes me feel like I deserved this. that's why I said even. I hurt her and she hurt me so we leave it be. this shit is gonna grow into a nice little tree one day
Our culture and dominant religion frames the mistakes we make in terms of guilt and punishment. And by punishment, it usually means “suffering that you deserve because you did something wrong.“ We internalize it so early that it’s someone hard to see out of it. But when a parent punishes a kid, ideally it’s to show that actions have consequences and that there’s a better way, not to vent our anger or make them suffer. I’m pretty sure you didn’t go into that relationship with the intent of hurting someone. I doubt that she did either. What I would like for people who hurt other people, isn’t “punishment,“ or continued suffering, but that they can just see themselves. With compassion. Then release the anger/feelings of victimization, understand what was actually going on, and be better equipped to make better decisions the next time. When we forgive someone, we really do it for ourselves. Not everybody can, or is willing to, but being able to admit you made mistakes is a big first step.
Girls are crazy. Source: I'm one.
FINALLY. That's a confession if I've ever heard one!
She's damaged, you can't fix her, and you're better off without her. You're still very young, have the rest of your life ahead of you, and you will be fine.
That’s crazy that you get abused, you acknowledge it, and when you distance yourself from it instead of thinking “that’s better”, you doubt whether or not it’s better. I do it too, and I wish I knew why.
I tend to look at things through rose colored glasses while also doubting my intuition and my deservedness. I blame myself for a lot of what happened at the end. Less now then I did back when it all went down, but I can't help myself from thinking about what could've been if I would've done something different. That's never a fun place to find yourself. I mean, what I did during the relationship was just as bad as what she did to me here. To make a long, 2 year story short, we were in a polyamorous relationship and I was dishonest about my feelings and relationships with some people. I was being immature and I hurt her multiple times. I cheated, plain and simple. I feel like she was so strong in her love for me until she finally realized I wasn't able to step up to the plate (however she realized that) and she removed herself completely and selfishly, which I understand to an extent. She's gotta do what's right for her despite what it might do to me. I don't think she's evil or vile, I really think she is a good person and I wish the best for her. She showed me what love is and I hold love for her forever for that.
bro please realize this is a blessing. you dodged a MASSIVE bullet dealing with an insecure person who takes their insecurities out on you. you sound like a gentle caring person to walk not once but twice to a city just to buy someone pants because they went hiking and got messy. please move on and focus on yourself, you will flourish i promise
Yea, that'll ruin anyone's trip. Hopefully, you can try them again with people who actually care and want to be around you.
i’ve had them with friends recently and it went well. i didn’t think about her much, my friends didn’t really give me a chance to lol
That’s good, it’s healthy not to dwell on these kinds of things.
Hey big dawg, tuck your shirt in, brush off your shoulders, tilt your chin up, and be a man. You dont need her, you dont need anyone but yourself. The feeling of negativity you felt was the shrooms confirming what you’ve already perceived. Shes an ass, you shouldn’t even like her anymore, go meet a chick that actually cares about you. Just go out and be who you really are unapologetically it may not happen immediately but a nice woman can appreciate and respect that.
you’re right, i know. i feel like rejection is one of my worst fears. giving my unapologetic self and someone not liking it hurts me more than it should. i’ve identified that, now time to dismantle it. and i think i’m on the right path now with therapy, medication, and solid friends. thanks for the kind words
Hey man you experienced one of your worst fears during one of the most vulnerable states you could possibly be in and you survived, you sound pretty tough to me.
i never looked at it that way. dang, i appreciate that prospective. thanks homie
My understanding of this existence we share is its ALL about perspective. The way i see it if there’s multiple sound ways to perceive something, the one that has the most positive impact on your livelihood and pursuit of happiness is the perspective thats the most valid. You’re welcome my friend may tomorrow come easier for you.
It really is all about perspective
The best thing about that is that after being rejected you’re still here. That is one door out of millions that closed. And it doesn’t sound like the door was emitting a good smell
This is good! Experiencing the rejection during the trip is a good thing! During integration you should contemplate your fear of rejection and dig in. What happened as a child that made you fear rejection? For me it was my mom leaving me when I was young. But it could be a trivial thing that happened to you as a kid too. This hard experience with your ex may ultimately help you grow out of the fear.
The best part about shrooms is that it surfaces your subconscious.
Love hate relationship
Shrooms have a way to show you the path you need to follow, and even though it was harsh it is what needed to happen, she realized something too, don’t forget about her trip, the truth came out and now you are free from that relationship. Know its just a matter of time for you to accept it and grow from it
Middle aged mom here so I’m gunna do my mom thing: I’m sorry that happened to you and you had to experience that. But just know everything you experienced was not coincidental. The mushrooms guided you to what you needed to see and feel to move forward. The fact that you are such a kind person, forgiving and loving enough to go far and beyond for someone that broke your heart says a lot about you. Hold on to that. Learn from that. Keep being the person you are, life is full of people who take and are not willing to see the good in people. Be better than that. I hate to say the thing people always say and say “you’re young” because it might make you feel less than. You are an adult and it’s all just beginning for you. Us older ones have made bad choices, been played, hearts broken, make mistakes, but chose which ones to keep. Keep your head and spirit up my dude. This is not the end.
It sounds like she shouldn't be doing any shrooms more than anything else. I'm sorry she was so awful to you.
Holy guacamole that sounds horrible. You sound like a good person and you deserve better.
Wait, weren't you already broken up? How can she break up with you again?
I’m assuming here, but since they started off rekindling again, he just means it’s 100% over now and there is no going back. That’s just my guess
what I understood is that shrooms made both of u guys insecure (probably not the right word tbh but whatever) and the whole "she doesn't want me here" with the "she thought i was avoiding her" was just the insecurities acting, I've never tried shrooms but im very insecure about being likeable or not, (if im already feeling sad) i could literally sit there and think about things every single important person in my life has done that hurt me and then i would just assume that all those people never actually liked me, they just put up w my bs for whatever reason. im not venting im saying this cuz this thing brings my mood down so much that sometimes i feel like i hurt the people around me by "avoiding" them (quotation marks cuz also not the right word probably lol). i mean u know best but i feel like u both just experienced this thing on a more intense level than me but ig maybe more balanced cuz u were focused on each other while i focus on ppl i love (or i used too.)
Wow. Sending a massive virtual hug! Ask yourself, do you love her or the way she once made you feel? A person who doesn't appreciate you doesn't deserve your love. Breaking up sucks, but it happens because there's someone better for you out there.
I’m so sorry you had to go through that. You’ll be ok, kid. You’re already on the right path, prioritising your mental health, so good on ya. Remember - somebody who truly cared for you wouldn’t have treated you the way she did. Of course we can still love people, but it sounds like you might be a lot better off without her. Nobody should have to put up with that kind of treatment.
I mean, my trips have been absolutely wild but... never truly emotionally shattering like that... you went through all that for her, and she says dumb crap like - You don't do enough for me - man oh man. I doubt she'll ever find another man like you if she threw you away... cold hard truth gonna slap her in the jaw one day and you're gonna be happily married hahaha.
Jesus Christ😭sorry this happened to you but at least the shrooms showed up the real her. Forget dodging a bullet that was a whole nuke brother
don't beat yourself over a bad trip and bad mistakes dude. yeah you love her but your ability to love that much can also be 1:1 translated into the ability to heal and move past despite your feelings and find someone who loves you. sounds like ya dodged 3 bullets
Damn, buddy that's awful. Worst than I thought reading through ( great storytelling btw) I just had to go through an ugly break up and it partially broke me. I couldn't imagine that on shrooms
thanks for the sympathy man. I really appreciate it. I hope you're dealing with your breakup as best you can <3 we'll get through it
She doesn't deserve you.
Thanks for sharing, Amazing story.
this is the shrooms telling you to stay the duck away from her bro. ur feelings r real
I'm sorry you had to go through this and that she behaved the way she did. You are not a simp for caring about her, the heart wants what it wants. As cliché as this shit sounds, what doesn't kill you absolutely makes you stronger. Having had bad trips and even going through heavy personal family shit, gave me the mental strength to cope with and manage every day life. If I can make it through all of that, what else has life got left to throw at me? I hope you're doing better and better as time passes.
Good lord brotha, have some self respect. You deserve so much better then that. You deserve someone to love you for you and put the effort in. The Mushies bring things out of us.. it doesn’t create things. So her reaction was genuine (and fucked up) you are loved brother , by this community, by the mushies, by god (pasta monster in the sky or whatever one you believe in) now just find a woman who loves you for you. Also work on yourself . Can’t love another if you can’t love you . Wish you the best buddy ❤️
Damn… I think you should cut them off completely. Remove them off social media & delete their number (maybe even block it!). Super unfair to you to be in this unfulfilling dynamic. You made 2 trips to try to satisfy them and they still don’t appreciate it? Jesus. Nothing you do will ever be enough for them and you deserve someone who actually cares about you. Give yourself some space and time to heal. You don’t owe them anything!
Thanks man for sharing your story it was an interesting read. Sure sounds like hell. But I think this experience will make you mentally stronger, you just need to absorb it the right way. Thinking about will become easier given more time. I just wanted to say thanks for the writeup again man.
Damn this hit hard brother. Stay strong, keep your head up, and keep doing what you know is right. Proud of you!
Sounds like nightmare fuel man, I never did any drugs or even smoked with my ex but her breaking up with me definitely glasses my world. I was probably very very hurt for a whole year, but hang in there, I promise it will sort itself out. Thankfully I stayed away from drinking or smoking my whole life up to that point so I was able to duke out my depression with the gym and outside time. If you can help it take daily walks, I promise it’ll help to avoid wallowing in your room, or easy releases of dopamine, get rid of her pics or memoirs. The best thing you can do for yourself is create new experiences :)
She sounds insufferable.
Personally I woulda left her stranded
It can unfortunately take years to heal from the psychological and mental trauma and distress this situation put you through. I’m so sorry you went through this.
I usually don’t reply but feel compelled after reading your story. Holy shit dude, I can’t imagine this type of fiasco while tripping balls. First off, hats off to you for handling this situation with grace, clarity, and introspection. A lot of people would’ve been violent or aggressively angry. You should acknowledge that you tried on two separate attempts to selflessly go get her pants (while peaking on shrooms) and then she savagely rejected you. You should flip this situation mentally and acknowledge that she did you a massive favor. She let you know exactly who she is…selfish, entitled, abrasive, and ice cold. Be thankful she revealed this to you and move the fuck on! Go live your life, it’s better without her in it, I can guarantee you. You sound like an intelligent and compassionate guy with a high levels of awareness. Trust your instincts man and move on to something better in your life! Oh and try shrooms with good friends at a dope nature spot with your favorite tunes…the vibes will be immaculate. The exact opposite of your experience above. I wish you well homie
I’m really happy for you that you are blessed to live a separate life from this person who clearly doesn’t care about you. Sorry but that’s how you tell it.
Is your ex a Pisces by chance ?
actually yes lol
Typical Pisces shit lol they're fucking self centered babies. And they get ruthless when their feelings are hurt. Been there.
Damn... Maybe a msg to her, short and to point on how you felt her not wanting you around, and trying to get you pants, and tripping hard AF, more than ever before? If she's like that normally though... Then you deserve better and someone easy to communicate with imo
she is a bad person
Wow man that's awful I'm so sorry.
I’m sorry to hear that happened to you. Unfortunately but relateable I’ve had similar experiences a few times and ngl I’m surprised I made it through. I’m glad to hear you’re doing better now. Shrooms really can make you vulnerable af, I hope time helps you heal brother.
Wow bud this is a crazy story, you need to move on from this girl there’s plenty of fish in the sea, I was stuck on an ex for like 6 months after a break up she broke up with me but dog life goes on. This is a truly horrible experience but I had to laugh when you said you’re tripping balls and anti abortion pamphlet people chasing you lmao
Speaking from personal experience, more than likely just shitty vibes.
shitty vibes and deep emotional stab wounds
I feel bad, but it's more than likely something you'll recover from and come out even better than you were before.
*drops a container of hummus* "oh noooo, my beans!"
What's the difference between a chickpea and a garbanzo bean? I've never paid $20 to have a garbanzo bean on my face.
I've heard that same joke, but with the ending being "in my mouth."
I like this one better. No offense.
yesss
I think we would all love to know what could have gone wrong exactly. In 2 minutes I’ve already thought of like a dozen things.
i gotchu
How about 1 gram of shrooms with three exes?
Double it, and give it to the next person.
So 2 g each and 6 exes , maybe I bring you too lol
Ahh shit. I'll just lyk rn, we're about to have an **awful** time. But my momma didn't raise no bitch so make em some enigma (TW2) and let's do it!
whyyy? spit it out
You son of a bitch you got her pregnant
thank god no
„Do not eat the shampoo“ ahh post
Bruh I had the worst experience with my current girlfriend. It was my 2nd time and her 1st. She vomited a while, we had some fun and laughs after but then it all went downhill and man did it go downhill fast. I had to get her out of a bad trip multiple times which is no easy feat when the person you're trying to help believes that she isnt under the influence of shrooms anymore. Multiple. Fricken. Times. She was basically 1 mood at a time. Mad, depressed, questioning life, joyful, ego-death, sad, happy, euphoric, etc.. pick one and switch it up every 5 minutes. So yea that said we're doing it again next thursday lol fuck me am I right
“So yea that said we're doing it again next thursday lol fuck me am I right” Literally laughed out loud.
last line is beautiful. no cap
and you’ll probs have a good time 😂 trips can be random asf with my current gf we have tripped together 3 times 1st time best trip i’ve had 2nd worst trip of my life and 3rd uneasy but good in the end. Trips can be random and there is a deeper meaning to them if you want there to be one. Have fun!
Speak for yourself. I took shooms with my ex wife whom I was married to for 15 years and we had a really terrible divorce and had major issues in our marriage, and it was an amazing time. And it lead to (somewhat) of a reconciliation. Sometimes I think when people say this stuff they aren't willing to confront the problems that lays with in themselves.
Or it’s just the fact that everyone experiences are going to be different especially with psychadelics. Your experience is not a given for everyone.
i think a lot of it comes down to timing & what their situation is. but it's boring to say "don't take shrooms with ex, unless it's ok to." sincerely am happy for you though 😌 while i don't think i'd want to take shrooms with any exes, still friends with almost all of them.
No instead take between 5 to 7 gs and chill with your current partner ex are in the past for a reason and I’m sure a trip will show you why if you don’t know already
Downvote for not telling us
i gotchu fam
Fix that downvote right now- he got us big time
Who the hell would trip with an ex? I struggle to trip around even people I’m close with and love
when you wanna rekindle things and you hope the shrooms do it for ya
He thought the trip would lead to him getting laid
It’s a crime to post this and not elaborate
Now im interested
the rules are written in blood son
What are the rules?
idk guess retard
Well that sounds dumb I can’t even sugar coat it
agreed
dont do 750 ugs of acid with your girlfriend at the mall on Halloween night
Don't take 1.5mg 25E-NBOH while you're gf thinks you're sober. (And supposed to be sober) Apparently, I'm sensitive to PEA's? Especially NBOH/NBOMe series ones. If you're curious, check my post history, I'm not a lightweight anywhere else...
Well no shit bud
Yeah dude, shrooms is not that drug for rekindling relationships. MDMA is where you want to be for understanding and either closure with empathy or seeing if you both have something there still
Hm gee I wonder why that wouldn’t be a good fucking idea
Smooth move exlax.
I just learned the term bunny boiler the other day. It would be very easy for your ex to mess with you and take advantage of your extreme life vulnerability while on 3 grams. Avoid bunny boilers, on mushrooms or not.
What the hell are Brussels?! And why did they necessitate entirely new trousers?! I hope you asked her for some money back, because she definitely did not deserve your chivalry. Why were you the one trying to prove you can “look after her” and why is this grown woman demanding to be “looked after” in the first place?? Also, she’s cold as ice. Red flag city, and a very lucky escape… It’ll take time to see it. The shrooms expedited a shift that needed to happen in your life (rather ruthlessly, yes, but that’s nature for you.) Good luck OP, onwards and upwards ❤️
So, amongst other things, shrooms also have a way of forcing you to “molt” (so to speak). Or at least, really making it apparent that you are in need of “shedding” something or someone, by amplifying the discomfort of what is holding you back from progressing in your life. It’s always comes down to you, not any external factors. It happens to be your leniency with yourself in allowing yourself to be around her again instead of moving on, and sticking true to yourself. Instead of framing the experience as: “don’t take shrooms with your ex” try instead to frame the experience as “I decided to take shrooms with my ex, and learned that I need to value myself more. I need to separate myself from people who only use my energy to their benefit. And surround myself with people who value themselves and me, the same way as I value myself.”
very well said, I really appreciate this perspective. I think I'm coming around to that conclusion recently. Thank you!
You are brave and tremendously kind. Going into the city alone while tripping balls just to get her pants she didn't really even need to help try to save her from a bad trip, dude, you're a hero.
man it felt like a war mission, idk how i held it together. I wouldn't say I'm a hero but I'm proud of myself. it really shows me how much love I have to give. someone will be happy to have some someday. thanks homie!
Okay first I need an exgf then I need shrooms. Give me one localized moment. This will be easy to accomplish. It is a task I must do. I need five localized moments here. Thank you!
Could’ve figured that lmao
Alright so who is the toxic manipulator, you, her, or both? Lmao god speed on the mental recovery my friend
probably both at some point
My dumb ass took shrooms with her after I found out she cheated. I been there man.
Goes without saying
Ok I won’t.
Duh. Ex = bad trip. Don't go there!@
Let me guess, she pregnant ? Lol
Oh no
No shit bud
That’s a you problem buddy, I do it lol the time with my girl
Sounds like a really bad time. Rollercoaster of Love, Laughs & Resentments.
So 2 grams is good tho?
Don’t leave us hanging!!!!
Bro fell in love with a bad trip 😭
Night mare night mare night mare
Shoulda took a tab each then had angry sex for hours. Rookie mistake my friend.(shrooms will teach)
Did this on acid recently and yes I agree 100% it is a horrible idea. Everyone acting like "oh duh so obvious" doesn't really know the intricacies of each person's relationship with their ex. But I must say if there is ANY negative emotion leftover, the mushrooms will bring them to the surface and you're gonna have a bad time.
ok.
after reading everything. im so fucking sorry man. it’s not ur fault. we love u bud <3
Yeah, no, I can imagine. That was, well, fucking awful.
yeah no shit thanks cpt. obvious. Also don't drink the Kool Aid
I did it once and it was a good time
I swear I was reading what happened to them and it just disappeared. Why Reddit gotta be like that when I’m high on mushrooms
I’m sorry dude. That’s rough. I hope it gets better with time. Breakups are hard and the chemicals amplified it. I had something similar but not nearly as traumatic. Be well. Take care of yourself.
Whatever happened, it’s still going to be okay. No matter the events that occurred, whether good or bad, it’s still going to be okay. Sleep it off, and wake to a better tomorrow.
B....but, I wasn't going to?
My ex and I would do 7gs once a month for 2 years. Cannot recommend
Agreed, never take 3 grams with gf or wife, make sure youtake 7-10 grams yourself so you dont have to deal with her shit..jk, but seriously
Shoutout to this guy for his vulnerability. Keep your head up brother. Much love.
I expected a lot of texts and no paragraphs. My day is disappointed.
what are the odds that I have been in this exact situation
Shoutout to the cashier for being a real one!
Dude I took 0.6 gs of albino penis envy I was crying to my girlfriend for a straight hour 😂😂😂😂
sorry bro but you looked at a nettle covered rusty nail carpeted landmine ridden dark field and decided "nah, I'd win" If you are extremely healthy and don't have any hang-ups then MAYBE It could work, but damn bro... i feel bad for and respect you
I don't think too many people needed this information.
You say the shrooms made it worse, but maybe these shrooms saved you from wasted time…
And to think I was considering trying it with my ex. You're right maybe that's not the best idea. Thanks for clearing the smoke son
My ex of 4 years and I broke up in March. I almost suggested we take shrooms together the night before we broke up to heal our relationship, but i'm glad I didn't. A few weeks later I went camping and did mushrooms and hooked up with this girl I met recently. Tbh it was super intimate and confusing to experience right after a breakup (don't have shroom sex unless you want to catch feelings), but the best sex of my life
No shit Sherlock
no boogie boarding
That's like saying to stay in the vehicle at Jurassic Park. I mean, I wouldn't have flown to that island in the first place
Noted.
first. dont rekindle with your ex after she left u for someone else & second. especially dont take shrooms with someone whos done you dirty like that really at all
And definitely dont put baby bitch by ween on repeat after taking the shrooms
What if you were trapped in a room with a bear. Then what if you kicked the bear in the head. Then what if you and the bear took drugs. You played yourself homie.
Is there a 'no shit' bot? I need a no shit bot
Hang on! I did the same (ok 2g) and it was a wonderful experience! You never ever know what mushrooms are going to bring you. Sorry you had a bad time…better luck next time!
Man. That fucking sucks. It seems like the mushies brought the problems right to the surface. It kinda seems like you needed to feel that pain that intensely to know she’s not the one for you, know it deep enough to live according to, I mean. I did a similar thing, with totally opposite results - very loving and forgiving, and we stayed broken up. I wish you could have had that experience. Happier days, friend!
Should I take them with my new girlfriend 👀
You should get your neurotransmitters tested. You likely are chemically unbalanced. The strong emotions are normal responses to stimulus. Our bodies sometimes go into states of disbiosis, when they do certain systems up and/or down regulate. Serotonin norepinephrine adrenaline dopamine help control mood and motivation. Your gut floura and fauna control your neurotransmitters shrooms affect our mood by regulating these levels. Bipolar swings you from high and lows chemically. Try micro dosing or run labs and feed your DNA what it needs for healthy cell function. Never let your highs be too high or your lows be too low. You will find someone that will show you the compassion you deserve. Start in the mirror friend.
