Title: Muscimol
Post by: Ungoliant on January 31, 2012, 07:39 pm
Although it's completely legal, and one could just go out and buy(or pick  :-\) some Amanita Muscaria, it seems to be somewhat unreliable to ensure whether the mushroom has more ibotenic acid during one part of the season, or if it has converted more of it to muscimol. If SWIM knew how to get a purified extract of muscimol it would be quite interesting to me as it's classified as a deliriant not as hallucinogen and also because it has been used for spiritual purposes for a very long time. Also it's legal.

The Amanita Muscaria species is technically classified as a poison, at least in the United States. I'm sure there's a way to extract the alkaloidal content from the mushroom, though. I'd assume it would be similar to most A/B extractions, but I'm not a chemist...

While you are right and i'm sure viewed as a poison in some ways, especially varieties of amanitas that are not muscaria there is a long history, listed dosage range and actual perceived recreational value to many, but much is old native american rituals. I understand that what you're saying is not negative, however in the same sense you could say iboga, voacanga africana, etc.'s constituents are also used/could potentially be classified as a poison however it is a very special and highly regarded psychedelic for many purposes.

I am not a chemist either but it would be interesting to know how to do, moreover to try if someone knew how to purify it correctly.

Ungoliant -

Cool name.  I'm Telperion.  Please don't suck the light from me because I'm a newb, but I've never had Amanitas before.  Plenty of experience with Psilocybes of a number of kinds ( cambodian, golden teacher, cyanescens, tampenesis, cubensis, etc... ).  Never had the opportunity to try Amanitas or it's Muscimole 'active ingredient'.  Just out of curiosity how does t compare with a standard Psilocybe experience.  I noticed that it s not classified as a hallucinogen.

There's no point doing Amanitas at home. Go to the woods and if possible pick them yourself. I like to eat them fresh, then sit down or just do some walking through the nature. Amanitas high is very specific and feels good only if you're into spiritual tripping. Mind while tripping is dreamlike and in somewhat meditative mood, no need for desire of visuals or hallucinations, the main thing is feeling feeling feeling which comes in state like cosmic consciousness, you perceive things and world differently but it's hard to describe as your senses are not going to change like with LSD on psilocybin or cannabis.
Anyhow, I'm not that well experienced with them and their potent varies from places to places and the main thing with tripping is always you, so I recommend to take your time and do your own thinking while knowledge from experiences slowly comes. Just don't be scared, they are not that poisonous like people usually thinking.

Also it's recommended to do some reading. Some people would get these nasty side-effects like pain in stomach which causes throwing up. It could freak you out if the only thing what you've heard before about them is that they are very poisonous.

If someone would get their hands to pure muscimol I'm eager to try.

Sorry to give you the wrong impression, man, I do have an appreciation for the amanita. I've done them 3 or 4 times, now, and actually used to re-sell them for a little while. They weren't my favorites, but they certainly were still enjoyable.
