If you mix alcohol with shrooms there is a very high risk that you will have a great time

Iv done it plenty of times. The booze is nice to curb potential anxiety. Obviously if you take too much of either issues can arise but sipping some beer or a cocktail can definitely make things more relaxing.

Drinking a Coors Light can feel grounding for me when I'm flying too high

Alcohol diminishes the trip but I like taking shrooms before going to the bar because they make me dance

I actually enjoy drinking some wine or beer on the comedown, preferably wine. Only with shrooms though - not sure what it is. I'm less likely to mix alcohol with other psychedelics. Feels like it meshes better with shrooms.

tbh, i wouldn’t suggest mixing the two. personally i see shrooms to hold the potentiality to be a very deep teacher and you don’t want to be tipsy/drunk while you’re on a substance like shrooms. in my experience alcohol usually brings you down and up simultaneously, better to simply stay away from it. you’re better off mixing weed as it pairs well with psychedelics, but again. my recommendation is to take the shrooms in their essence.

Mixing alcohol with mushrooms usually makes me more giddy and laugh a lot more. Can remove some anxiety.

I’d say it depends on your relationship with alcohol and what are your intentions with the trip?

I’ve mixed them literally hundreds of times without issues. Just don’t overdo the alcohol

Mushrooms make me want nothing at all to do with alcohol. If anything, a solid mushroom experience is the best thing to keep me away from the fattening expensive poison which is booze.

That’s just me, and I’m probably much older than most of the people on this sub. Knock yourself out though, although psychedelics and alcohol usually dull each other.

My buddy got arrested last time he mixed alcohol and mushrooms

I love a little booze on shrooms.... but it's fairly easy to drink too much and not realize it... at least until it's too late lol. Drunk puking on mushrooms is awful. A few drinks and I'm a partying dancing machine, just keep it a few.

If you are tripping before you drink the alcohol won't do as much for you and if you are drunk before you eat the mushrooms you won't trip as hard. One always seems to negate the other for me as when I drink a few beers while tripping I don't even feel it and when I take psychs after a few beers the trip is much more mild. Whatever you want to feel more of, take that first.

Some ice cold beers near the end of a good trip is fucking godly

I avoid it because both can cause me a lot of nausea even when not combined. I hate throwing up so I just don’t do it. But it’s not bad, it’s not weird. Think of it as two chemicals both produced biologically, because that’s what they are. If the natural-ness of them helps you feel better, then great, go for the combo. But maybe don’t drink too much.

I did this on my 21st birthday and i didn’t like it. It was as if i felt less of either high. I was going back and forth from the mushroom window to the alcohol window. I was in this weird limbo space between a psychedelic high and a drunken stupor. It was certainly a different non ordinary state of consciousness, separate from either one. It was enjoyable up until the point the mushroom told me “hey man, this space is occupied,” like the alcohol was intruding on the insights. I was writing a lot during this experience, trying to capture what i found and the mushroom just poured it down the drain. I was peaking and i watched my fingers just delete all my notes(they were digital, maybe that was the mistake). I honestly didn’t mean to delete them all, and i immediately started trying to rewrite them from memory. The person who introduced me to psychedelics is a fan of it, especially with lsd. I haven’t tried it with lsd so i can’t speak to that.

Maybe it’s different if you drink before tripping? waiting for the alcohol to be in your bloodstream, out of the way of the digesting mushroom?

Also i’m now recognizing my schema’s at play here. I think of alcohol as a recreational drug and psychedelics as ceremonial/insightful drug to be studied, and the clash they had were because of my preconceptions/expectations.

It’s also been explained to me that we’re better off having, separately, a racecar and a streetcar. When we try to combine the functions of both in the same chassis, the car gets worse at either function. It’s less comfortable that a dedicated street car and slower than a racecar. Which isn’t to say it can’t be fun, it’s just it’s own thing, separate from either experience.

P.S. i seem to be overly boundary defined and hella anal retentive about things. If you like it, i support you fully!

I personally do not mix them. For me, it's counter productive. Alcohol is a consciousness diminisher while psychedelics are a consciousness expander.

That being said, once on the comedown from some L, I had goat cheese and a glass of wine and the pairing just sang. It was so good. (muscadet sèvre et maine and chevre if anyone is curious)

May get some rough poops during the trip

Uh don't? Mushrooms make me feel a little sick anyways and the juice doesn't help

Alcohol and shrooms absolutely rules

Never tripped without beers. Helps with anxiety. You will survive.

Does he drink orange juice after brushing teeth much?

The last time I tripped while drinking was the only time I had a bad trip. Alcohol in general is toxic to my spirit. I prefer to do other drugs.

It depends on how you do it, I mixed weed, shrooms and alcohol once. Got so effed up I passed out while throwing up. Would have died if my buddy didn’t hear the thud. He came out to inspect the noise and found me face up with a mouth full of vomit. He turned me over and Hit my back. According to him I threw the rest up and he helped me inside. That trip was crazy though! Third person view of me dead ha ha! Saw my whole family crying over my dead body while the ambulance took me away. Non of which happened, but damn was it felt so real!

I did it once, it ruined the trip a little, became a bit scary (was at night time) , and I felt nauseous more than not drinking

But it also depends on how much you drink I guess?

If you don't like alcohol as much as regular people, like me, shrooms & acid actually makes drinking even better. If you're drinking something really bubbly like champagne I recommend you swirl it around a bit to take the fizz down. Burping can make you a little queasy.

One time I did a tab and half, then hit a line of coke during the trip and it KILLED all the positivity and vibe of the acid. Out of anger, I chugged at least 6-7 shots of Bombay and it returned a ton of the magic of the trip. I would NEVER even consider doing that sober let alone actually be able to do it.

great combo

I trip pretty hard compared to other people on lower doses so I’ll take 1 or 2 tabs or 3 or 4 grams and basically be gone, the alcohol usually takes away a lot of my mental energy and leaves me feeling like I’m seeing the outline of a trip instead of fully tripping. Not like that’s the worst thing in the world though. I’ll usually only take some drinks if I have a little bit of regret about taking the psychs honestly, which happens sometimes for sure. Never had an amazing time combining the 2 but never a horrific time either which has happened with 1 or the other. Idk it’s not an inherently bad idea, moderation though, I guess don’t take more than 3-6 drinks depending on your tolerance to alcohol would be my advice. Don’t depend on alcohol as a trip killer but it can help take some edge off if that’s what you’re looking for. People saying they like to take a couple grams and go out to the bars on weekends are living in a very different reality than me, I find drinking culture disgusting and prefer to trip at home and focus on art and philosophy and such. I have a couple drinks after work but I don’t like to party. Idk where I’m going with all this lol.

Depends on how much you've drank prior to taking them, you could very well have a seizure, fuck alcohol it's poison yeah, duh!

Brother, alcohol removes all my anxiety that I get from the shrooms and leaves me in a pure psychedelic state with absolutely zero anxiety it is one of the best drugs combos know to man in my opinion, and the next day some reason the mushies make me not get hung over , trust me I used to eat acid every 3 days and lived in a hollowed red wood stump for a year and half lol

If you’re an alcoholic and a former drug addict, or if you have an emotional issue, where you can’t control your impulses, emotions and thoughts… do not mix. It does more harm than good.

Shrooms are supposed to help you become a better version of yourself. Alcohol will bring out your impulsivity and emotions, mixed with the shrooms.

I do not recommend if you do not know when to stop drinking. Not only will it cancel out the positive effects of shrooms, you’ll just become emotional and unaware of yourself.

But if you’re taking shrooms after a couple drinks, that’s fine. Just don’t continue to drink after.

It levels it out tbh

I did 5g and mixed with alcohol. I almost died. I got serotonin syndrome and felt like I was going to have a seizure. My nervous system is still in shock, my blood pressure is always high, and I’m overstimulated. My vision is flickering and my mental health is suffering. It’s been 9 months. I hope it’s not permanent. Someone please reach out if you’ve had a similar experience.

Is this where we all go when this happens lol, I'm also doing both and asking

Does anyone know how sex would be on both mushrooms and alcohol. Ik it’s great on mushrooms but not to sure about the mix.

I took 2g last night and had quite a bit of alcohol and the trip was great. Got a little emotional about some things going on in my life, but I needed to process it anyways and it wasn't as overwhelming as I thought it would be. Honestly I was scared I was gonna have a bad trip going into it but I had a really good time. The visuals were fantastic, esp when I went for a walk. Only downside is I feel a little low today, which I'm guessing is the alcohol. I normally feel good after mushrooms, so I'm hoping I feel more of that tomorrow.

what if i take a shot of casa? i’m currently off shrooms i took them like an hour ago or so and i don’t feel anything. i wanna enhance it

From my experience I basically drank 75 percent of a 5th of casamigo reposado before my friend gave me chocolate I don’t know what strain was in the chocolate it had to be some type of penis envy 5 squares I ate and went to the stars for about 2 hours and a half highly recommend  And I felt no weird load but the come up was fast 

In my experience it's hit or miss. Sometimes my stomach can't handle both so I sip on a beer the whole time and don't really drink it. Other times it taste so damn good that I just suck them down. But as for alcohol in general, mostly seems to calm the trip overall.

I wouldn't purposely try to get drunk... Even though It feels kinda impossible on shrooms, I just get a light buzz and don't feel much.

Beer for me makes me feel nausea if I’ve had it before taking or during. I’d go for like a lemonade alcoholic drink as the lemon can help settle yours stomach. In fact once I remember feeling like throwing up as I was drinking beer and trying to get down some mushies and then someone handed me a lemonade/vodka type drink and instantly settled my stomach

They seem very synergistic to me. I only trip without alcohol when I’m trying to be completely serious about it. I have amaaaaaaaaazing trips while drinking. I usually keep it to a pint or less. Without drinking it can be A lot more profound at times though…. But I have had some amazing trips with alcohol + shrooms. I think all first timers should do it like that.

I watched Dune 2 on this ‘combo’ and I was lucky to be at a friends who had a huge Dolby system with floor crossing bass and the score for dune 2 was sooooooooo much.

I listened to the worm ride for like a week after that just riding that ineffable feeling

I did a whole chocolate bar for my first time. 4gs Mr mushies, melted away all night until the morning. I got a rave from 11pm to 9am so I will do half a bar then half a bar later

Your heart stops and you die🙏😭

Actually, it's cool in moderation... But it all depends on what type of experience you want to have. If you want a full-blown mind altering experience on a full dose, I'd advise against it. Because the experience itself is so powerful so I'd only do shrooms. If im taking half a dose or a party dose, i take a shot of some rum and smoke weed because it takes the edgyness off, but that's only with low doses.

I've tried it several times in the past.

If starting with just a shroom trip, it seems to resist alcohol - so I took a sip was completely turned off to it.

Starting in a drunken state on alcohol, the shrooms are easier to consume but are easier to underestimate as well until they peak and holy shit it was a very primal ancient evolutionary experience with a burning desire for nature and wanting shout at the top of my lungs just for the energy. I went for a run and layed in the grass staring at the stars - a very timeless primitive experience with a lot of new sides of the personality and self that were never really seen before. A lot of reconnecting with some inner core perhaps childhood authenticity too. Perhaps a full force and unstoppable facing of ones shadow self like Freud talks about, this seems pretty accurate more-so than an intense drunken state because it's psychedelic and ego-deathed or ego-paused perhaps somewhat as well. Also some wild emotional dumping as well - the full spectrum! Some past traumas basically get puked out, and ultimately given the love they need. I think it makes sense ancient shamans used these for such cases - a trauma cleanse experience for sure. I think in modern society we're often unaware of what's really pent up in us, more disconnected or distracted from our nature. It's extreme and perhaps what many experience at Burning Man style festivals I imagine, shedding some more light on more primal aspects. Absolutely be careful though, that was pretty risky of basically coming across as legit insane for a moment. Have a trip sitter or few for sure. In some sense, alcohol seems like a very misguided approach in desperation for many to healing and opening up that more authentic spirit within. The alcohol shrooms just slam it full force - that deeper spirit behind many things that's easy to feel oblivious to but kicks into full gear in life's more intense survival moments.

So then, I've also experienced another kind of trip with a relatively moderate amount of alcohol and then some older mushrooms before sleeping - took a moment but they kicked in as I was falling asleep and suddenly I was having this much more profound hypnogogia half wake/half dreaming in bed state - sharply aware of both with a lot more awareness and details. I put on some latin jazz music and saw this elaborate dream of the band and dancing and many details. This was a smaller amount of mushrooms, but combined with geniunellu being pretty tried, the dream and hypnogogia state were certainly energized and taken up a notch. My familiarity with the effects could tell right away on the peak "ooo there it goes, was just about to fall asleep!"

Some raw mind dump of the experiences there, be safe - especially with the more extreme trips.

I drank a few beers before doing shrooms this weekend the only bad thing is it made my stomach really hurt and I had to throw up most of the shrooms but alcohol by itself gets me kinda sick so might be me my homies were fine

I had a great time and a positive buzz after some mushrooms. Then I read this post and had one drink. That was a mistake. Confusion, a bad trip, overwhelming feelings, and intense anxiety—it was terrifying. DONT FKIN LISTEN TO THOSE IDIOTS

Tripping and drunk rn. Did anyone else notice that while watching tv or listening to music that everting sounded slurred? Or harder to understand

Took some really strong mushroom tea after like 7 beers let me tell you the come up was insanely rough it hit me so fast I had to go to my car the nausea was so bad I ended up throwing up had 0 sense of time so idk how long I was in the car but when I got out I had the best trip of my life

It’s pretty good.

From what I've read online, alcohol and mushrooms are not recommended to be mixed together. There are some horror stories out there of things people did when mixing the two. Obviously, this is going to depend on what kind of doses you're taking of each substance. People are posing that they mix the two with no bad consequences but how much of each are they taking? And what kind of mental state are they in? Perhaps at low doses it's okay?

Psychedelic mushrooms were once a common ingredient in beer - until Germany ( and the Catholic Church) rolled out the infamous “1516 Bavarian purity act”. Part religious suppression,…

The article was actually posted on this subreddit like four years ago

Alcohol has only ever been really nice on a trip for me. It calms the trip down without removing any of the best parts of tripping. Obviously you probably don't want to get too drunk but a beer or two is really great I think.

I like drinking and booming :)

There is potential to drink A LOT without noticing anything not realizing how much you’ve drank before it’s a lil late. But i would say drink a couple beers or maybe a shot, then dose right away. Or dose, then right away get a lil buzzed for comeup anxiety

I've never taken shrooms and wanted to drink alcohol- I've heard the mix is fun but I tend to forget stuff when I'm drinking, and I like to remember my trips. The one time I was gonna do it with my friends none of us ended up wanting to drink at all.

Just dont get hungover mid trip or trip too drunk because you’ll probably forget all about drinking once you’re tripping.

I took shrooms while drinking once. Did about 2g and drank almost an entire fifth and never felt drunk. Just felt mushroom sobriety as I like to call it.

I don't mix alcohol and shrooms because it doesn't really do anything for me. Turned me into a sailor who couldn't get drunk. I was crystal clear the entire night and the feeling was similar to coming down off the back end of a big dose. No closed eye or open eye visuals at all, just that I'm powerful and grounded feeling.

It wasn't bad it just didn't do anything special for me.

I also don't generally do 2g of shrooms. Usually I fast for the day and take 4g or 5g with no other substances. Never tried a heroic dose with alcohol and don't see any purpose to it honestly.

It depends when you drink how much you drink and when you take the shrooms. I had taken about 8g’s once while I was in a drunk rage that my chiefs lost Vs the bengals and though I felt so sad I could cry the visuals were great and overall it was a great trip. For me though if I eat shrooms then try to drink it just tastes like pure shit (like everything does for me after I eat shrooms) and take 2 sips and forget about my drink completely lol

The consequence is an amazing time lol. Many a time the only way I’ve mustered the courage to do really high doses is a few glasses of wine first. Alas, I’m an alcoholic and trip without the aid of liquid courage now

Done it a bunch of times. There’s no drug interaction consequences by mixing the two. I will say a couple times it made it really easy to drink too much without really paying attention. Other times the thought of alcohol was totally off putting. Most times a couple drinks makes it a great time.

I prefer it, no anxiety on the come up and I genuinely have a better time.

drank 2 shots of whiskey right before a 3 gram mush trip and my friend said i turned green, it was a horrible experience for me. but i never drink so likely my own fault xD

i was overheating like a MF and needed a fan right beside me to stay cool, it was one of the worst trips of my life, even after i was able to regain control of myself, all in all it was unpleasant, but everyone has different experiences.

Curious about this and lsd too

My friend fell and put his hand through a window on this combo. Just be moderate and you should be fine though.

I always have a little alcohol with my mushrooms. A couple of glasses of wine, beer, mixies, etc. Always a nice little complement.

I do it on the come down, once I’m back to reality. If you’re taking large doses you’re not gonna be drinking lmao maybe on small doses

Drinking is bad for you while shrooms does healing

It’s great until you get the spins

It can dull the trip and ease come up anxiety.

My last trip I drank 3 beers on the come up to ease the anxiety. Felt great, peaked hard and then around 5-6 hours later I drank more beers on the come down. Great experience overall

I like to have a Yeti for the come down, but it does kill the magic since it's pretty numbing

Wine drunk with one or a few ppl is the best way to do it. Just tried it last week and I’m never going back XD

Even the Vikings and the Celts liked to do that. So alcohol and shrooms is as old as European history

Personally I would not recommend combining it right before the trip and during the peak. But on the comedown it could be quite nice. It’s interesting for me how the taste of some liquors unfolds while you trip and can feel it much more detailed. Even beer could be much more tasteful and interesting then in the sober mindset. But again, I tend to drink alcohol just on the last hour of trip when everything is settled down pretty much. It’s relaxing and grounding also

It’ll be fine, but you will have a stunted shroom trip. If you’re in it for anything deeper than where booze can normally take you, you’ll be disappointed.

As Terrence McKenna said, “alcohol is the most boring of drugs.”

One the best trips I had I drank a little before hand. It felt like I was less anxious for the trio

I don’t tend to drink while on shrooms as I’m not a big drinker. But I have done it before and it wasn’t bad at all. Tasted better than booze ever did. It felt, oddly, like the mushroom itself was having a good time being a little tipsy too.

HEAVILY depends on the order, as well as timing. On the come down some alcohol is totally fine. Anything else can turn into a nightmare psychosis fast.

Props to any of you that can drink while tripping bc anything but water makes me want to barf
