I think mushrooms can open us up to truths that we don't always want to confront and sometimes it allows us to cry and make peace with our existence.
When I grew mushrooms in college, I'd take massive doses of fresh mushrooms simply because I was flush with these amazing fungi.
So I took a massive dose of fresh mushrooms, which I think is a better way to go if you can make it happen, something like over 50g wet. As it sets in, I looked up at the night sky and a drop of water precipitated with all the moments of my life reflected inside it. It was as if I was a single drop from a large ocean. In some ways it was sad, this teardrop would pass someday and return to the ocean. I know it's okay, and I want to say that it's been a lot of fun spending time with everyone.
The experience reminds me of Blade Runner when the replicant confronts his own death.
"I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die."

- Moodles 7y ago50g!? That seems like an insane amount of mushrooms to eat in one dose. Edit: my apologies. I thought it was dry, not wet.
- horsawlarway 7y agoIt's a large dose, but generally the conversion from wet to dry is 10 to 1.
- Moodles 7y agoMy mistake.
