Every time I took mushrooms, it felt like everything went in HD, no mental hinderance (as compared to say alcohol or weed) and even increased creativity/critical thinking. Good ol' college days. Is it possible that you might have taken a bit to big of a dose for your "abilities"? Not trying to debate your point or take any validity away from anything you said, I am 66% with you. Just curious about your thoughts, since we seem to have had a different experience in that case.

Mushrooms are the only drug which reliably produced bad trips every time I took them. 0 pros in comparison to LSD.

A few times yea and a few times no. I think the bigger the dose, the more dangerous my behavior became. The lightest dose I had made me feel like a 10 year old kid. That was interesting. So there’s definitely something to it. The same goes for alcohol and weed. Now that I think about it more sharply, my favorite doses: - alcohol: 1 to 3 glasses - weed (Dutch): 1 to 3 puffs - truffles (Dutch as sold in smartshops): half a standard dose sold Thanks for making me more aware on this. I was only hyper aware of this with weed. Too much weed always makes me feel I’m dying. The first few times I had that, I even believed it. While too much mushrooms or alcohol are no joke either, the experiences were more positive (mixed in with a lot of less positive things).

  > Too much weed makes me feel I'm dying. You should try a strain with less THC and more CBD. More THC will lead to anxiety. The feeling that you're dying is quite common at high THC (for people who smoke rarely), but once you know how to "deal" with it, it opens up some experiences which are quite hard to put in words, but are quite enjoyable. A lot of it depends on the "set" and "setting". Without right setting (or music), I'm sure it would lead to racing thoughts and paranoid feelings.
