Giving Shrooms To my Grandpa Age 80

[Julian gabriel]

MY Grandpa wants to try shrooms for the first time in about 30 years. He has a heart condition and he has been ignoring a lot of his psychological issued lately.

So the chances of him having a bad trip seem to be pretty high. I'm going to be guiding him through his trip.

Does anyone have any advice for me? I want to help him explore his creativity more.

A low dose is probably a good idea... No more than 1-2 grams I'd say, and maybe not Penis Envy?

No more than 1g.

@Leo Gura What if it happens to be penis envy

@Tim R Why not penis envy?

@Julian gabriel Because they're pretty damn potent and 2 grams of PE oculd be the equivalent of 3-4g of P. cubensis... That's why I said 1-2g, but better not PE

@Tim R I only have PE.

Then you could give him 1g (not telling you to give him anything). Check the average content of Psilocybin of PE (I don't know it by heart) and then decide what the equivalent would be of the amount of normal mushrooms you'd give him. Does he know how much he want?

@Tim R He said he wants to do 1g but he's familiar with less potent shrooms so I recommended he do less than 1g.

The main reason I recommended he do less is because he has a weak heart and recently had major surgery. 

Do you think the shrooms would be bad for someone with a heart condition?

I don't know. I don't know about your grandpa's condition and evn if I did, I couldn't/wouldn't give medical advice. 

In either case I would not give him any more than 1g max, especially with PE & especially if he only knows less potent variants.

Psychedelics perhaps aren't ideal if someone has a weak heart, but of course it has to be his own decision. I would step out of the way as much as I could though.
