What’s a heros dose. I only did small amounts and it was long ago. Much better experience than I expected. Easier to snap out of than anything else. If your high on weed or drink you can’t really snap out. But with a low amount of shrooms I definitely could. Then go right back to wondering why all of the Scooby Doo characters are naturally occuring in the cement walkway while sitting on the stoop
I’ve always heard a good normal dose is an eighth. According to that article linked above, a heroes dose is 5 grams, or an extra 1.5 grams beyond that.
According to the Psychonautwiki on shrooms (which is fairly reliable in my experience), anything over 50mg of psilocybin is a “heavy” dose. Trouble is, unless you can get your shrooms from a reliable source, guessing the psilocybin content is pretty tricky. The one time I intentionally did a pretty heavy trip on shrooms, it was something like a quarter ounce of dried shrooms, but another time I just had a nibble on one for laughs while drinking with my buddies and it wound up being pretty substantial. If they’re fresh instead of dried or just a different strain or batch, it’s all pretty up in the air, so my advice is to always be ready for a heavy trip unless you’ve already had some experience with that particular batch.
Yeah just be careful. There are instances of dudes whacking their weeners off with hatchets and one guy repeatedly headbutting his eyeballs onto pencils until he died on heavy psilocybin doses.
This sounds exactly like the lies anti-drug proponents tell to try scare people off drugs. Did you know there was a boy who died after injecting just one marijuana?
This is the first documented case of Klingsor syndrome related to psilocybin, in which a psychologically disturbed person self-inflicts harm on their genitals.
Plus the dude was already messed up and an alcoholic.
The second guy was on ADHD meds and hypertension meds:
Although some might be tempted to draw broad conclusions from this single case, it is important to understand the nature and role of case reports in medicine. Case reports are detailed descriptions of unusual or novel clinical events involving one patient. They do not establish cause and effect or generalize to larger populations.
It’s pretty common advice not to mix drugs unless you know what you’re doing, which is something that happened in both cases.
But the point is your “warning” is the same as telling someone about to drive or fly about the worst accident on their mode of transportation. It’s just a paranoid thought (and a dick move), not a reflection of reality.

A heroes dose/heroic dose just refers to doing a very high dosage of a psychedelic substance like shrooms.

Wait, I always thought the name was mocking. Heroic as in “you think you’re superman over here”
