LSD or acid that is on the market today is pure crap. Maybe one needs to take 4 or 5 hits to experience anything remotely resembling the LSD that I took in the early to mid 70's. Ive done acid in the 80's and 90's and found it to be crap. Speedy bullshit poser acid. Most, if not all of you have never done REAL LSD.
You'd probably shit your pants if you did.

Yeah, because none of us have ever taken more than one hit of acid. 
What else do you want to tell us? That you had to walk to school in ten feet of snow barefoot and that cheeseburgers used to cost nickel? Acid being weaker now just means that you have to take more of it if you want the same effects. Big fucking deal?putting 5 pieces of paper in my mouth instead of 1.

I agree 100%. I ate 5 hits as a starting point back in the day and it certainly was as strong as a single hit in the 70's. Just chalk up having to buy multiple hits to inflation.

I read through this noticing a lot of people mentioning how shrooms arent as mental and more of a visual trip with less focus on mind loads and cyclic thought patterns. I find completely the opposite in my personal experiences. Sometimes I have shrooms trips where nothing looks visually abnormal but my thought patters are so off the wall I follow a train of thought and end up thinking something I would have never normally thought of. Shrooms make me feel like im trying to figure out a question but I cant think of what the question is and its a continual loop where every few minutes on some bad trips ill catch myself thinking "wait! what!?" and looping that
dunno

Shrooms teach you about life on earth and what it is to be human.
Acid teaches you about the universe and what it is to be a spirit.

There is no way to describe in words the difference between the two... but whatever here's my shot. Of course, this is my experience with these two drugs, and your milage may vary.
Shroom trips are normally accompanied by more unpleasant physical side effects (body load, lethargic feeling, feel "flimsy") than acid. As far as the trip... shrooms have less euphoria, but more of a sense of profound awe/wonder... like you're heavily at peace with everything. The visuals seem to come and go, and to be honest I really have NEVER gotten completely mindblowing visuals from shrooms. The visuals on shrooms are kind of blurry, and hard to make out. I normally have most insights when I am past the peak, and in the midst of the beautiful comedown.
Speaking of which, the comedown on shrooms is far more gentle than acid. With shrooms it fades out nicely, leaving you with a nice mental afterglow, but with acid (LSA too) it leaves me feeling sort of all cracked out... like I just went through something that is definitely *not* good for the body or brain.
It's kind of hard to describe the difference in the way the trip FEELS between the two. I once heard someone say "If shrooms feel like the earth, acid feels like candy" generally I agree with this. There is much more energy with an LSD trip, and it is MUCH more euphoric than shrooms. Acid is recreational trippin' at it's best. This doesn't mean it has less potential though! I enjoy LSD much more than mushrooms but they are both incredible amazing lifechanging experiences. Acid is much less introspective/contemplative for me than shrooms, but that may change when I get more experience. I'm very inexperienced with LSD. (Done it once)
Visuals on acid are THE SHIT. I have only tried a low dose one time and I completely understood the hype around LSD's visuals after that. They are fucking amazing. While shrooms have blurrier, indistinct visuals, on acid, it's razor sharp, crystal clear, and it's RIGHT there. Sort of hard to explain. Like, I took two hits of blotter (weak) probably about 80-100mcg in total, and I was getting some visuals that were better than my high dose shroom trips. Letters on street signs were rotating as if they had a Y-Axis in 3D, for example. That kind of stuff just DOESN'T happen with mushrooms. (for me...)
Anyway, I hope I helped... but to really know the difference, you need to trip on both! 
Heh
Happy trippin'

I think what we can tell from these posts is that people experience these drugs in different ways! This is probably true for psychadelics more so than for other drugs like alcohol, coke etc.
For me, I've done acid once and it was possibly the worst experience of my life (my own fault; bad setting), yet I still got a lot from it. It put some things into perspective, and I must say helped to change me for the better. The visuals were undeniably in a different league from mushrooms, but mentally I found it too strong. I got caught in this paranoid thought cycle which I just got deeper and deeper into, became really embarressed and irrataional. Also I disliked the un-natural, speedy side of it; the teeth-grinding etc.
But shrooms, I found them to be rooted in nature. I think they are at their best enjoyed in the countryside, not in an urban environment. I just feel so happy. Completely different from acid (although I appreciate my acid trip wasn't exactly a "good trip!").

I have never done acid, but I noticed alot of people saying that they have never had mind-blowing visuals on shrooms and only on acid. I have had some crazy fuckin visuals, crystal clear right infront of my eyes there is no escape from them. There's no doubt in my mind that shrooms give some incredible visuals, it probably just depends on the person, and if not that probably just the potency or species.

I'm going to have to try acid sometime because i have had pretty good visuals off shrooms, and i thought they gave the best visuals.
i've noticed with shrooms once you get to a certain level, the visuals just apear to stay in the same spot. Like there would be geometric patterns everywhere in my house, every wall and they would be different. And i would come back 15 minutes later from being somewhere else and they are in the exact same spot and look exactly the same. Or an object will be changing colours, changing shape or patterns and i would come back later it would be doing the exact same thing as before.
I hear acid isn't like this, like you have to stare at something. But then again on mushrooms you have to do this too sometimes.
Shrooms also seem to fuck with my ears, balance and sometimes and breathing feels different. This seems to compare a bit to mdma, i have felt similar feelings with the 2.
Is it possible that acid visuals on objects act on a 3D basis and and shroom visuals on objects act on a 2D basis. Like light is perceived differently with the 2.

I have an idea: Everyone can stop using "On LSD YOU..." and "On shrooms YOU...". There is no "you" in there. It's only "me" and "I" and some inadequate analogies about your pals that you've tripped with or read reports of.
The difference between LSD and shrooms is, above all, what you  make of them.
So, I hardly care about the chemical differences between LSD and mushrooms and you can look those up.
The physical effects of LSD for me have been:
Extreme mania and joy, extremely physically active with jerky movements, yoga feels good and running and jumping too. I remember a hare running over a field the first time I took acid, so I ran and I ran at an amazing speed and became a hare. That was perhaps one of the more pure moments of my life. Acid has also been much more intellectual for me. I find it not to be a drug at all in the sense of other drugs I've tried: drugs intoxicate or impair, LSD IMPROVES brain functioning. My long-term and short-term memory is increased on L and even months later I remember the trips extremely vividly. Also, I've found that I feel like I'm five years old again when I take acid, or that I'm an alien anthropologist slipped into a cozy human body and meant to explore this great planet earth -- all its ideas, all its nature, its mankind, its place in the universe. Acid is also disorienting (e.g. Once I remember thinking that the sun was rising over and over again one night when I was tripping on acid, but I couldn't make sense of it because the incense I was burning had only burned a centimenter during those many "aeons" and since the wind was blowing on the curtains like it was that meant that the sun shouldn't be rising--so you see how that can be confusing, but the confusion just doesn't even matter, because if I can stear the trip then I have no need to control time/space/thoughts/objects).
There's a lot more I could say and I haven't even gotten to shrooms yet! I'll sum it up with this Acid is dej? vu-phaseshifting-timewarping-foreverliving-ecstatic-sleeplessness and visual disbelief.
Mushrooms are aeonic-stonebeing-skinexploration-onthebrinkofcollapse-decadence-beauty-OBE-insight.
Hope that helps

for me, mushrooms are much more a learning experience and "in touch" with all nature. i usually reach ego loss much more easily than with lsd, but with less visuals. much more bright oranges and reds etc. more geometric shapes in the dark, with more CEVs.
lsd is much more visual to me than mushrooms. the body high is about equivilant to mush, except i feel i can control myself much more on lsd. things seem "fluid or liquid" and lasts much longer(about 8 hours+) on lsd as opposed to about 4-5 hours on mush.
hope that helps

also, heres a good thing to try, try a few hits of good acid, and an eighth of good mush, u will not regret it, also eat a vitamin c pill and u will up the visuals(for me). u will get the earthy peace of the mush, and the crazy visuals of the lsd.
o yea, sorry i couldnt figure out how to edit

In reply to shroom_assassin's analogy: >>>>>
lsd is like having every particle in your body blown across the universe
shrooms is like being stuck in a cave for the rest of your life
This is what I have found (take it with a grain of salt).
The only time I feel "stuck" like you described it, while on shrooms, is when I have been living in a mode in life where I am not very well centered with my own inner peace...which is spiritual freedom in my book. Like when I am living each day chasing stupid things around, and just in that addictive cycle. Those are the times when I will trip that I will feel STUCK. And in reality, on a spiritual level, I am stuck.
I have learned that it all has to do with the level of inner peace I have at the time I trip, and how lined up I am spiritually. When I am in tune and lined up right, I always have the most rewarding and adventurous trips. But when I am living my life just sorta chasing one day or one thing to the next (like chasing a rainbow), then if I trip, I do feel trapped. True freedom is found within.
The reason you feel different from LSD, "like having every particle in your body blown across the universe", is because LSD has more potential to change certain paterns that you have inside in your spirit. It is an introspective trip which can alter who you are.....which can give you a temporary release from any spiritual prison you might be caught up in at the time.
This is just my own theory and personal observation from my own tripping experiences. So if you dont agree with me, then thats OK. I just thought I would share what I see to be true.
Peace
Thankyou for these words... Helped me out alot.

Dude, thanx fer remindin' me. I was going to look through a psychology book of mine when I got home and see which spectrums of light science says that visual cortex is most receptive to when influenced by psilocin/psilocybin.
The reason why is I was thinking about getting some new lamps...
I like purple on acid...
Any recommendations for shrooms (that'll suprise me a bit)?
