LSD vs. Shrooms

Hello,
I was just wondering if anyone could tell me the noticeable differences between LSD and Shrooms? I have tripped a total of 10 times on Lucy and I've had nothing but great experiences. I'm looking to delve into shrooms and I'm hoping that it's just as good of an experience for me.
I took 1g of Shrooms before, but I can't say I actually tripped, I just felt extremely high and I was very giggly. On Monday, I plan on taking an 8th around 6p and going to Central Park. I was just wondering if anyone could explain to me what I shouldn't be looking forward to and what I should be? The 1g of shrooms seemed to reset a lot of my tolerances and I was able to fall asleep a lot better.
I've done a couple heroic doses on lucy, close to 700ug, so I think I'm a little bit experienced. I'm just trying to figure out what to expect.
P.S. that picture was from my last trip, my goal was to see the sunrise in central park, and I dropped at 2a. Literally perfection and it even snowed that am. I was in pure heaven. Just wanted to share that photo cause I am quite proud of it and I'm thinking of documenting my trips from now on with the use of a camera.

I'm not afraid to comment on your post without telling you too use the search function. I always hate when people do that.
I've always felt awkward on lsd. The trip obviously lasts a lot longer than mushrooms, but mushrooms to me feel much more cleaner. I like lsd, don't get me wrong. But I like mushrooms a lot more. I think 3.5 will be perfect for you. Take some headphones so you can listen to music if you want. I love house music when I'm tripping. Mark Farina is great.
I think the body high is much more enjoyable on mushrooms, and I don't get the same audio distortions that come with acid.

Thank you! I feel awkward on LSD, but I work through my awkwardness. When I drop with a group of friends, it tends to mess with me because I stay quiet, but I don't mean to.

I love LSD,
Shrooms scare me.
LSD scares me too.
But shrooms are weirder.

Yeah, staying in your head makes it worse lol. There's a certain popping, calling feeling I get on lsd that doesn't happen on mushrooms. Kind of hard to explain but you'll see the difference.
Check back with us after you trip. I want to see your assessment.

I just came up with an interesting analogy the other day.
LSD is like seeing the world differently but Shrooms is like seeing a different world, if that makes any sense at all.
Expect more time distortion and probably better visuals.

I feel the same, acid is just stimulating as fuck, its like you feel it throughout your body, plus it lasts like 2-4 hours longer than shrooms. Shrooms and mescalin personally feel much better physcially than acid, which gives me sore muscles on the comedown and a crash of sorts. The come up on both give mad giggles tho. The afterglow of shrooms feels great.
If you like acid you'll love shrooms.

Hey OP I would recommend watching this video if I were you, it's of McKenna explaining the differences between pretty much all the main psychedelics except mescaline. All the classic tryptamines. I have yet to do DMT or ayahuasca but he explained the mushroom experience SO well in this video, I have never seen someone explain the archetypes of psilocybin as good as he did in this video and what he said about LSD was pretty accurate too except I tend to experience more emotional abreactions on mushrooms.
I saw this vid for the first a few years ago but I wasn't really too crazy about it or fond of it but I recently rediscovered it and now I think it's one of the greatest explanations/summarizations.
Oh and P.S. Mushrooms are usually MUCH more emotional and confusing than LSD so there's that. There's also some strange primordial zaniness about it, it's very galactarian as well.

LSD is much more intense than Psilocybin at equal doses.
LSD is like using power tools on your brain.
Psilocybin is like carving your brain like a bar of soap.

it boils down to this for me..
take LSD when you want to have fun and take mushrooms when you want to go into the unknown

LSD
For me in general, LSD lets you go about your day and experience reality in a truly altered and recreational way but still function.
LSD is a sheer FUN psychedelic and very immersive with it's razor sharp colorful visuals, tons of laughter when you trip with good friends and music sounds amazing.
Shrooms
Shrooms are a lesson in life. The main thing they teach is what it is to be a human.
To me they are not really recreational and much more medicinal. I only really enjoy shrooming alone. I find them much more immobilizing and incapacitating.
I find Shrooms much more mental and you're locked in your thoughts. The thoughts cycle around fairly quickly to the point you barely get comfy with a state of mind then bam it changes. The thoughts go around with accompanied emotions in a happy>sad>nostalgic type of cycle. No matter how uncomfortable some of this is, I find the thoughts/emotions are accompanied with a real softness which makes it less traumatic and more insightful.
I only find LSD to be incredibly weirdly thought fucking and confusing during the initial come up. Providing you don't latch on to this and are able to escape it perhaps by listening to some banging music or talking to friends you'll be fine.
Shroom Visuals:
The visuals are not razor sharp and have a tendency to make you see much weirder shit whereas LSD tends to alter what you look at. On Shrooms I've felt and seen death in the form of skulls/bones as an example. Literally just flying around my head.
Shroom Audio:
Music never sounds good to me on shrooms. Audio of any kind becomes distorted and may suddenly sound close or far away.
Saying all this, my most terrifying trip was on acid when I took a massive dose on my first go and my sister turned into Satan and I felt like my mind and sanity was dissolving / imploding. It was terrifying.
Shrooms have given me the most intense of the trips. A very profound moment in one of my shroom trips was feeling every conceivable emotion at once and then tears pouring from my eyes. Tears of joy, sadness and everything else. IT was real intense.
-------------------- My Psychedelic experiences: LSD - 30+ times (2 hits min / max 3 hits) every time. Shrooms - 4 times (2.5 - 3.5g) DMT - 5 times (Powerful breakthrough only once) Life can be one hell of a bitter pill to swallow so I chose acid instead -YeOlde

for me LSD is recreational and Mushrooms are serious, "spiritual", "special" of whatever you wanna call it.
i have had realizations about reality, life, death, the meaning of human existence, ad well as had more tangible effects like the lifting of severe depression after a massive dose on mushrooms.
i've gone to concerts, raves, gone snowboarding, watched movies, listened to music and done silly shit like going to vegas on LSD.

tbh i always thought shrooms were like the key to another dimension, mentally, but lsd is like a virtual reality, like its not real . . . idk, shrooms will always be best anyway
