Difference between acid and shrooms?
    #19011327 - 10/21/13 11:17 PM (10 years, 4 months ago)

Have tried shrooms a couple times and will be trying acid in a few days. Should i expect a similar experience? What will most likely be familiar/the same as shrooms and what will be a lot different?

Shrooms = rollercoaster  Acid= airplane
You are not in control of the direction of a shroom trip, acid on the other hand you can basically take it where you want to go, you might hit a little turbulence but for the most part your in control.

:whathesaid: Add another 6-7 hours of visuals and no sleep for about 12 hours or so without a benzo.

Outside of the length of the trip....
Mushrooms have one peak
Acid many

Mushrooms are natural, acid isn't really (though partly based on ergot)

Most other differences are probably dose based... It's hard to compare a squirt gun to a shotgun... Effects would be similar with comparable dosing... people tend to take a higher dose of mushrooms than of acid...

I hunt mushrooms... So are they are free.... As a matter of fact, just found a nice patch of Chang on the way to the bus this morning

It's a topic that's brought up often around here, but I don't get tired of offering my 2 cents when I come across a new thread.


Similar, kinda...I mean if mushrooms is the only psychedelic out of the classics (Mushrooms, DMT, Mescaline, LSD) that you have experience with, then you might find L to be somewhat reminiscent of mushrooms at first. But when it comes down to it, once things get going, L's effects tends to be contrary in nature compared to mushrooms.

By that I'm saying that the general consensus with most folks and mushrooms is that they tend to be a bit more sleepy in nature, heavier on the emotions, a little more potential for the experience to be a bit "rough" around the edges for some, a more pronounced body load.

I find mushrooms to be a very inward experience. The overall ambiance is more personal. They have a certain cosmic-ness about them, not too unlike that of DMT IMO. For myself, mushrooms often induce that feeling of a grand cosmic connection to everything.






While L on the other hand...Is generally much more stimulating and energizing. Good L has zero body load in my experience. The initial effects come on quicker but it's a longer climb to the peak compared to mushrooms (I usually hit THE "peak" between 2.5 and 3 hours, shortly before the point I'd start to comedown on mushrooms). Then there is a long stretched out plateau of the intensity of the effects, with a few "peaks" in intensity along the way. With a hit or two, usually sometime around 9 hours after the trip started I'll notice the first sign of coming down, but it's another 2 hours or so of tripping and slowly floating back down. And even after that, I'll have very mild residual effects linger for a while after.


While I have the best sleep of my life after a mushroom trip, I sometimes get a little restless at the tail end of an acid trip. I have a couple friends that can easily crash while still tripping towards the end of an acid trip. My self, depending on when/where I take it and what the circumstances are, half the time I can sleep no problem after a few bowls (saturating the herb in hash oil is key :wink: ), other half the time I just lay there and bask in the after glow. Some cannabis and/or a few beers is very nice to have on hand when things have started to simmer down, I like to save most the the smoking and any beer drinking for the float back down. A hot shower and a good hearty meal will help with falling asleep.


The mind remains relatively lucid and clear, I'm much more "functional" on L compared to mushrooms. L is the only psychedelic I take somewhat in a "recreational" aspect, if that's what you want to call it, such as at festivals or small get togethers. But I also like to partake in somewhat larger doses while alone, for inward experiences.

But don't get me wrong, L causes quite a drastic shift in conscious....quite a shift :yesnod: :lol: .


I mostly prefer to be with a friend or two whilst on L, but I also do solo trips occasionally. While with mushrooms I mostly prefer to be alone, very occasionally with one or two friends. With L a relatively more stimulating and vibrant setting is preferred, with mushrooms I like to make a very calm, quite, and dim setting. I find the experiences from LSD to be much more outward. While on L I find my self pondering fundamentals of things, a much more analytical and philosophical head space. I'm a very visual thinker as it is, but L allows me to visualize concepts, or form visualizations for ideas & concepts, so easily.



Another thing I've noticed between L & mushrooms...On mushrooms I'll sometimes catch my self laughing at absolutely nothing in particular. With L, I'll find very very specific things absolutely hilarious, and usually can't even begin to explain what it was that was so hilarious, even after the giggle fit and tears have settled. I find that L can have a much more humorous & comedic aspect to it....All seriousness aside, some of the best moments I've had is sharing a fit of laughter with some friends while on L.


....And all of ^that^ totally depends on the dose, the person, and the set & setting.



Mushrooms I take 2 to 3 times a year and usually relatively large doses. L, I'll take more frequently, relatively smaller doses. L I take much more so during spring and summer, mostly because I like to have room to roam around and prefer to be outdoors doing something. Mushrooms much more so during fall and winter, partially because that's when they're fruiting & free, partially because I find fall & winter to have a certain feel & ambiance about em' that just feels proper for eating mushrooms....even though I'm indoors 90% of the time with mushrooms.

To me, the psychedelic aspect of shrooms and LSD feel nearly the same. The duration of the trip and the ability to get to sleep are the big differences I notice.

Most of my trips have been in the evening, stretching into the late night/morning hours. I like tripping alone and that's when things are peaceful. My worst experiences have been with LSD, but not been while tripping. They've been during and after the come-down, laying in bed unable to sleep while mulling over all the things I don't want to think about.
So, for that reason, mushrooms work out much better for me. The trip is intense but not too long in duration. I can get to sleep before it's done wearing off. That's incredibly valuable to me because I have some insomnia to begin with, and insomnia after tripping is the worst!

Assuming the white tasteless blotter I've eaten was actually LSD, they are quite different. The blotter was actually more euphoric like everyone seems to say. But shrooms were a REAL trip, genuine; the acid seemed more fake and poserish in comparison even tho the effects were more intense. Less mind manifesting, much more recreational

Hugging your mind, praying to survive, feeling the love of the hieroglyphs in the sky
We all need more love, and mainly less hate
Hate is the blind that covers the heart's eye
That makes the heart's eye cry
Locked deep away in the skies of our minds

It's all in the mind

I have done mushrooms a few times, and tried LSD once for my first time a couple days ago.

To me, the LSD definitely came off as a more "recreational" substance than mushrooms, however still very psychedelic... The LSD was more consistent with its effects. At one point during the peak hours, I felt very much like I was on mushrooms. For a second I even forgot I had dosed LSD, having had done it my first time. My peak effects were very reminiscent of mushrooms. Laughter, complex pondering, a powerful connection to music, and closed-eye visuals. However like I said, the effects were much more consistent, whereas on mushrooms the heightened mood effects come in what I think of as "waves". On mushrooms I always feel a full-body surge, as if I can feel the emotions and sensations of the world pumping through my blood, throughout my body. On LSD the surge was all in my head.

There was also that more "energizing" sensation... the comedown is probably the most distinguishable aspect of LSD from psilocybin. To put it bluntly, the comedown sucked. My values in psychedelics did not allow me to appreciate the comedown I had off LSD. My mind was scattered, I felt a little confused about the world, it was as if my mind had dumbed down to a level too low for a world as complex as this one. Sobriety was kicking in, however with the effects of LSD still strongly lingering, making it almost an uncomfortable altercation between being on LSD and, well, not being on LSD. I'm not too sure how to put it into description. After the trip had started to float away, and the peak effects becoming a cloud of memory, it definitely felt like the purpose of the substance was much more "recreational".

Laughter was induced by specific things, whereas laughter on mushrooms came from literally just being alive and experiencing the psychedelic phenomena. I have laughed hysterically for absolutely no reason on mushrooms, just from exchanging looks at the person that's with me. On LSD, the hysterics were caused by what I thought was funny. Again it's a little complex to exactly dictate the sensations in words.

Going back to the comedown aspect, I also could not sleep for fucking shit that night. Sleep is as valuable to me as my health is. On mushrooms I am glad to fall in my bed after the ride and get a good night's sleep. On LSD I was very happy to get into bed, only to become extremely anxious as each hour of incessant tossing and turning passed. Like "Universe" said,
Quote:

"laying in bed unable to sleep while mulling over all the things I don't want to think about. "


was exactly what I experienced as well. Weird images passed through my thoughts for hours as I tried to sleep. Sleep was literally impossible. That worried me.

Anyways, afterwards, my mind easily and quickly came to the conclusion that LSD isn't my "cup of psychedelic tea". I very much prefer mushrooms, and I don't think I have an interest to take LSD again. It was just as though the "learning process" on LSD was not as profound as it is on mushrooms. Learning wasn't as powerful, the effects of the LSD were more "fun".

Yeah, that's my few cents.

Edit: after reading what the person above me posted, I felt like adding a little bit of something else in agreement. I'll put it this way: On mushrooms, there is NO way you are able to act "fake". That is, to act slightly different from how you actually want to act. Mushrooms truly bring out YOU, and when you try to fight that, they kick your ass. But on LSD, it's not like that.
