WHAT
ARE MAGIC MUSHROOMS?
- Magic mushrooms are mushrooms that
contain psilocybin. Psilocybin is a psychedelic drug with effects
similar to those of LSD.
- Psilocybin mushrooms have been used by
many indigenous cultures to induce altered states of consciousness
during religious rituals.
WHAT
ARE THE EFFECTS?
- At low doses, magic mushrooms produce
feelings of relaxation, not dissimilar to those of cannabis.
- Users often report laughing a lot and
finding things funnier than they would normally.
- At higher doses, the experience is
closer to that of LSD, intensifying colors and producing visual
hallucinations and feelings of euphoria.
- A mushroom "trip" tends to last about
four to five hours.
- Users often report the mushroom
experience to be more "earthy" than other psychedelics, increasing
emotional awareness and causing less psychological confusion.
- Many users find the mushroom
experience to be spiritually significant while others find it
frightening.
DANGERS!
- The biggest danger associated with
magic mushrooms is misidentification. Some mushrooms are poisonous and
cause stomach pains, vomiting, diarrhea and even death.
- Some users report getting sick even
after ingesting real psilocybin varieties.
- Magic Mushrooms can impair judgement.
Driving while under the influence of mushrooms is dangerous.
- Magic mushrooms, like all
hallucinogens, can trigger underlying mental disorders and cause
schizophrenic-type symptoms.
- Users sometimes have "bad trips,"
which can include confusion, anxiety and panic. In rare instances,
users can experience recurring episodes of anxiety and panic
(flashbacks) days, weeks or even months after a bad trip.
- Magic Mushrooms are illegal.
Possession can result in long prison terms. Supplying mushrooms to
someone else (whether or not money was exchanged) carries even longer
sentences.
