I have taken them since, but I get something completely new and different each time.
The “lessons” are ephemeral and effortless. The work that follows the trip is very effortful: trying to repeatably (i.e. without drugs) attain what the mushroom showed was possible. That’s the hard part, but it’s also the real reason to do mushrooms — they are a kind of aspirational drug that leaves you searching — only you’re not searching for a new high, you’re searching for ways to apply what the mushroom taught you. It’s a very beautiful process.
At least, that’s how I see it!

It can happen with LSD and other psychedelics too, but you have to be open to that and not consider them just party drugs, as many people do. Very rewarding too if you can find a therapist that knows about these processes and can help you along.
