I have a therapeutic approach when it comes to mushroom, I have some sort of ritual when I take them, something alike a prayer though I'm not religious at all. I think about my self, my life, want to feel better by having access to what's deep inside of me.
I take lsd for the recreationnal side of things as I can't seem to go deep in my mind as I do with mushrooms.

For 1,
Trip to transcend the limits of the dualistic attitude that’s so prominent & prevalent throughout our species.
To see beyond my own limited default perspective.
To heal. To create. To fulfill. To explore. To dream. To transform. And so much more

So that for a short time, i can ascend to a higher place. A place better than this hell on earth we live in.

At first it was for healing. Now its for exploring.
I think the ultimate goal of spirituality is to not be a mark. Be aware of when strings are attached.

The first time I tripped was down to curiosity. Ever since it’s been because I love the headspace. Fooled myself for years that I tripped for spiritual development, healing, etc. But when I take a deep hard look at myself, I have to admit I trip simply because I like it. And have done for 35 years 
I stopped setting intentions years ago, though I am always respectful of the mushroom. I aim for decent strength trips, generally over 3.5g, and the biggest plus I get is after the mushrooms have worn off: I wake up feeling like my brain has been wiped clean and reset, almost like a defrag. The way the afterglow works afterwards has allowed me to adopt a good work ethic, and these days I am somebody the team relies on, when they’re all falling by the wayside, nd taking time off through stress, anxiety, or depression.
I still hate the establishment, and most people i interface with, but life these days just goes over my head.

The first few years of tripping on mushrooms was leaning more to the recreational side but the experiences surely also had a spiritual side to it. These days I always tripped outside with friends.
Now the circumstances have changed completely. I moved to another part of the world, where it wouldn't be safe to trip outside alone at night. Also here I haven't got friends I'd feel comfortabel tripping with. So I trip in a dark room while listening to music and explore the inside world.
Only mushrooms can get me into a state which I can only describe as beeing completely content with everything. Next to the insights and CEV's this is the aspect I enjoy most about the trip.

Introspection and personal growth; exactly why I keep trips infrequent (6-18 months).
