I find mushrooms more spiritual and acid as a bomb going off inside your head. Voted acid as the tougher one because of its unpredictability.

Agree. Plus I feel really weird if I think about religious/existential things on acid whereas with shrooms even unpleasant thoughts feel ok as long as u can let go.

For me it's the other way. Coming down from acid involves more philosophical thought and coming down from mushrooms is rather thoughtless for me, just a kind of bland contentedness.
^^ This, x100. I love the philosophical thoughts I have while coming down on LSD. That's definitely a way of putting it For shrooms like more like "okay what the fuck happened in the past 2 hours..". I voted shrooms, needless to say.

While mushrooms are probably 'harder to handle' it should not be misunderstood that mushrooms are more intense than LSD, because they definitely are not. This is all subjective and both drugs will throw you for a loop with a proper dose. I just think LSD is easier to 'handle' if that means anything. I've never had a freak out trip and gone off rambling in loops yet, so I think I've pretty much been able to handle everything that's come at me. Mushrooms just feel a little more serious.

For me, peaking on LSD is "ooh, this is sooo fun!" while peaking on mushrooms is "uh-oh, did I take too much?" So I would say mushrooms are harder to handle, but I also enjoy them more.

Same here. I think it's because mushrooms are much more spiritual for me. I love both the same though.
My vote went to shrooms as being harder to handle. Even though I think it's all very subjective on many different levels of complexity.

I've never done acid so I can't vote, but I've found regular dose shroom rides to be physically and "spiritually" exhausting lately. Lower doses with weed are just euphoric visual beauty, but my "real" trips have been really beating me up recently.

I've only tripped acid once compared to the countless trips I've experience on mushrooms.
Basically, the sense of cosmic peace between mushrooms and acid was the same. With acid, however, I was passively observing "the infinite" and was able to maybe take my mind to reality every once in a while. The experience wasn't particularly religious for me, but I think that's because the night I tripped I was hanging out with a lot of people and generally distracted. I was CAPABLE of being distracted, however. LSD was very extroverted, and I found myself opening up in ways I'd never feel comfortable while sober. There were moments of fear very similar to mushrooms, but generally I was able to take my mind off whatever was bothering me and focus on something else. With mushrooms, it's very difficult to "choose" what aspects of life, or hell, what's around you, to focus on. I think this is what makes mushrooms more difficult; people are forced to confront their mistakes and fears during a trip, and all they can do is hold on and let their mind brood over the matter. (Also why I find mushrooms a VERY spiritual experience)
Not all mushroom trips are "difficult" though. I say, EVERY time I trip, there are difficult moments. Sometimes the entire trip is difficult as the mushrooms hand my ass to me on a sizzling skillet. But with mushrooms, I've definitely found myself lying on the floor for hours, trembling in cosmic bliss That's what's great about them. Even if I'm in a generally good mood, the mushrooms can bring up some awful aspect of my life I've been denying, and even if I'm somewhat distressed, mushrooms can offer a deep sense of comfort and reassurance.

I feel like LSD is harder to handle, but only because it lasts so long. It becomes a job after about the 8th hour.

I haven't actually even tripped on shrooms, but I've heard more people say that you can control the trip about LSD, and LSD was definitely really easy (and blissful) for me to handle.
