I brought 12.5 grams of dried Fly agaric mushrooms as a spur of the moment thing while I was buying some magic shrooms. However I now regret it a little as I have done some brief research on the Internet which suggests that it can cause severe vomiting (worse than psilocybes) and that the psycoactive ingredients are considerably toxic. Is it still worth taking? Any previous trip reports would be appreciated :)
oh yeah...does anyone know how this stuff actually works on the mind? In other words do the chems bind to serotonin like shrooms and LSD does, or does it work in other ways? |

FLY AGARIC
THIS DRUG IS ONLY INCLUDED TO WARN OF ITS CONSIDERABLE DANGERS. The Fly Agaric ('amanita muscaria') is the well-known red toadstool with white spots which appears in illustrations in fairy tales. It is not a true psychedelic drug and at best has unpleasant side effects. At worst it could kill you.
Effects are said to be dizziness, muscle twitching and possible vomiting after a half hour. This is followed by a drunken feeling and perhaps a light sleep lasting about two hours. Numbness may be present in the extremities. On waking feelings of great strength and hallucinations (especially of size) lasting about six hours have been reported. Overdoses can lead to convulsions, derangement, coma and amnesia. There are reports that this drug can cause ergotism, constriction of blood in the extremities of the bodies (e.g. nose, fingers etc) leading to gangrene. Death or permanent brain damage is possible from overdose (caused by respiratory paralysis). Kidney damage is also possible.
Neither the toadstool nor any preparation of it are controlled substances. They are not likely to be ever classified as such, since hopefully few will be foolish enough to try it. |
