They are like a reset button that breaks up some of your rigid thought paths that have formed. They give you a chance to step back and be more objective and examine your thoughts and yourself and the things you may not even know you are doing and to rewire in a healthier way. Sometimes I can even view myself from other people's perspective as if I were them.
A friend of mine likens it to trimming a tree of dead branches, things you no longer need to hold onto can be dealt with, accepted or come to terms with and discarded to no longer impede your growth.
Also, they are great for exploration of the mind and the arts... ESPECIALLY MUSIC!
I LIKE TO BECOME THE MUSIC! LOL

I don't really get off feeling like I'm dying all while flopping around like a fish out of water as I examine all those moments of when I could have been more compassionate towards others whom I love.
If it were all just colors and flowers, I would be all for some mushrooms, but fuck, they are terrifying!

I do get off feeling like I'm dying all while flopping around like a fish out of water. I love mushrooms even when they give me a hard time (at least in retrospect, while tripping I might disagree ). OP you didn't say if you've tried them or not, you can never understand why people do them if you don't try it yourself. But only if you do the research and know if they're suitable for you.

Honestly pretty much. That's what I've really been realizing lately. I may have some terrible introspective trips and put myself down and think what a POS I feel like I am.....
But after the trip I feel the complete opposite. I feel reborn. I feel accomplished. I feel like I just eon a race. It's very odd. Because I just came from somewhere that was so dark and come out feeling enlightened. Though, I always feel like I'm going to stuck thinking negatively of myself while in the trip.
Lately the mushrooms have been really good at calling me out on my bullshit so my trips have been difficult, but rewarding. Just have been really having to puff my chest out before taking them recently.

love them, and lysergamides initially I feel sick then I feel more me than ordinarily, like I have come home. I get a few hours of being myself and then come down, it's ok to be normal. a few days later I can do it again and come home. (it's where I live as a child perhaps - certainly decorated with souvenirs from childhood and later dreamscapes)
when straight I am home but not really home when stoned I recognize that I am home. I also connect better with my people - I have more patience.
it's the essence of home. not really but yes, a natural place to relax and commune with what is. do I like it? I love it. I dose moderately, not into escalation or exploring limits.

You nailed it redgreenvines!
First time I took LSD and reached the peak, the overriding feeling was; “this is what I’ve been searching for my entire life”!

I accept the chaotic ride up, I expect it. but I am delighted with the peak and coalescence - the coming together, that follows the first adjustments.
since life is all about adjustments, it's all good IMO

My first 8g dose I had the feeling of being home and at peace. It's a good reset for me, life can thin you out so it's nice to have a tool that can bring me back to base.
