my friend wants shrooms?!

Shrooms can be intimidating if you've never done them, or even if you WANT to do them. They are pretty mellow actually. All I do is smoke herb, except, IF I'm in the mood, I will eat shrooms.
You just have to watch out for how much you take. They can be extremely fun. The first trip is probably the best. Plus, you dont have to take a lot to start tripping. When you hear the word "trip" it automatically is a little scary if you've never even seen someone trip. I was very nervous the first time and it was the best time I have had. If you're not fully comfortable dont do it. You must have a clear mind and be open to the fact that for a few hours your gonna be tripping. If you do decide to take them you need to make sure you're with people you trust. No more than 3 people. If you want to see what it does to you, be a good friend, and be his "sitter." Let him eat a little bit of shrooms and just watch. He'll be giggly and all that fun stuff for about 4-6 hours. If, you decide it's not for you, cool. If you WANT to do them, thats cool too.
Everyone makes shrooms to be some big deal. They dont hurt you or mess your brain up. After a couple hours you come down and all is well.

BTW- You definetely will not kill yourself on shrooms. It's not that kind of drug to make you do that. Unless, you ingest such a massive amount to the point where your going ballistic, it wont happen.
Acid and shrooms are so completely different. Shrooms are better. You trip for a couple hours and come down. Acid- you dont know when you're coming down.

a dozen trips.

Well, acid is more visually effective and shrooms are more mentally effective, in my defense. but the trip for acid is like, twice as long as the one for acid. But hey, it's better that he does shrooms than acid. I know people who did acid and still have the sh*t stuck in their system. Like, they'll bug out for no reason out of no where. Shrooms isn't as terrible as acid. It's 10x better than pot, by the way. It's fun.

Me. I have long history with drugs

Since your friend sound immune to common sense... Get him some dried portabellas. Make him pay a lot for them. When nothing happens, tell him the whole shroom thing is BS and people just say they trip to look cool. He'll probably never bother with them again. He also shouldn't smoke pot, or do any other type of drug. Doesn't sound like he can afford to kill any of the few brain cells he has.
