Ymmv, but my personal experience was great. It’s shorter than LSD and I got more out of it than any other recreational drug use. I would compare the psychological impact to spending an afternoon removing and cleaning all the books on your bookshelf, except the bookshelf is your own brain. You get to examine a lot of material, you delve into some volumes but not into others, you maybe rearrange in a way that’s slightly more pleasing (but it will never be perfect, it’s a bookshelf and you’re going to see it differently next time you look at it), and you get to rediscover things you may have forgotten. You also might make some connections that, having read some of your books years apart, weren’t immediately apparent. It’s also very serendipitous in a similar way. You’re going to look at most of what is there, and if you’re not in the right frame of mind, you might end up fixating on the journal you kept when you were going through a rough patch at the expense of paging through something more pleasant. You might get something out of that, or it might take you somewhere that’s not so great. Edit: Also, for anyone interested in mushrooms or any other kind of psychoactive substance, read the Erowid article and any other material you can find. Drug use is risky. Some risks are minor, some are major. Don’t engage in any recreational drug use without a clear understanding of the hazards you’re exposing yourself to.
