but what about getting the shits?
someone said you wood get the shits. i dont want that
Well, I never really got that (when I went to the bathroom the next day I was always able to imagine that some people might get the shits, if you know what I mean - but that was it! Nothing more) This is in my case for 5g plus - I can't guarantuee that you got the same stomach as me... maybe you'll get the shits, but not necessarily! I think 2g or so wouldn't affect me at all stomach-wise (haven't taken a 2g dose in a long time, but that's another story)
About taking a higher dose: I highly encourage you to take higher doses if you liked your initial dose, because I think higher doses can be very educational and also very enjoyable. HOWEVER I have to warn you that you must take them very seriously. Imagine a dose of more than 5g is like climbing the Mount Everest: if you prepare well and know what you're doing then the outcome can be very successful and rewarding. If you take it too lightly without preparation, then you might end up having the worst nightmare of your life.
Always prepare properly, the set and setting is crucial to a good trip, and always approach slowly (so yes, 2g would be the next step for you if 1g was your first experience!)
IF you attempt trying higher doses, then NEVER think you can take these higher doses as a recreational or party drug. If you want a party drug then there are several other choices like mdma or speed (which I don't recommend, I just say before you consider shrooms as a party drug please don't do it and take something else! Drink alcohol, whatever... just don't try to party with shrooms - it might turn out okay with lower doses, but mostly it won't!)
You seem to have a certain fear of taking higher doses of shrooms - good! Then respect that fear and try higher doses in a comforting setting with the knowledge that anything might happen. You need a certain readiness to assume a risk if you want to take higher doses of shrooms - it's never a certain thing. I have done a few dozen or even a hundred of higher dosed trips (like 5g dried and more) but I am still anxious about every new one, and I still prepare meticulously for every one, because I know from experience that only the well prepared trips will turn out well.
