shrooms make my face ugly

i've posted a similar thread before, but i didn't get satisfying answers well, i've been using shrooms quite often the previous months (about every 2nd week) and a couple of weeks ago, i noticed, that my face looks very very different than before the cheeks (between the eyes and the mouth, right and left to the nose) are reddish and the skin's constistence is kind of greasy and fatty and puffy also i have very ugly dark circles under my eyes, which run into my cheekbones and have a semi-circle shape the cheeks, directly below those dark circles, stick out about 3mm, so the dark circles kind of seem squeezed in i just look totally ugly now i'm not sure, if that is caused by the mushrooms or something else i've been smoking pot on a daily basis for about 3-4 years now, but besides having red eyes, i never looked as fucked as today, also i compared myself now to a pic, about 2-3 years ago (i also smoked pot daily at that time, done speed, mdma, lsd and also shrooms about once a month), but i looked really fresh and good at that time so, i stopped smoking pot 1-2 weeks ago, and the dark circles under my eyes do not seem to fade i found 2 pics on the net apparently showing a girl directly before and directly after shrooming, and i look veeery similar before: http://beepboop.org/wp-content/uploads/2006/12/shrooms1.jpg after http://beepboop.org/wp-content/uploads/2006/12/shrooms2.jpg
anyone noticed that shrooms fuck up your face not only during the trip but also for months after it?

 i don't see any change in that girl really.. she looks a little less happy maybe but.. she didn't look like she was jumping for joy in the first picture anyway
i've never heard of shrooms changing the appearance of your face except perhaps while you're tripping (and you just think that)
maybe you just look different now, because of age? or... anything?

I hate to break it to you, but cigarettes are terrible for you skin, teeth, hair, etc, and may in fact be the cause of the decline in appearance you noticed.
Also, have you been missing any sleep lately? Dark circles often come from that and if you quit pot after habitual use recently you might not be getting as deep a sleep as you need.
Other than those two, is it possible its all in your head? Self esteem can definitely have a huge impact on body image.

Well I don't know you look so ugly, maybe you should stop smoking cigarettes but I smoke cigarettes and I'm not that ugly. Need some beauty sleep and some rubbing alcohol on the face. Open it up a little. Shrooms make you tired and sweaty so stop taking them until you fix this problem.

Shrooms make you fatigued. And though you don't always feel yourself becoming tired, your body must still go through its normal cycle, and since you are ignoring it, your body is tired, but you are not. which results in the "haven't slept for days" look. I don't usually look all too great while I'm on mushrooms, but as soon as i get a good nights sleep its gone.
As I'm fairly sure you aren't going to be going on a date with anyone while on shrooms, I don't think you have anything to worry about. It doesn't really last as long as you moderate your trips.

I dont see anything wrong with your face. Whatver issue your having its in your head. Your very beautiful.....(However your hairstyle is "unique"). But your not ugly. My guess is you got self esteem issues, but im no psycologist.
But if it helps.....You aint ugly.:)

that girl on the pic is not me, mate it's just a pic, i found on the web  there are just some similarities to my face, the dark circles under the eyes and the puffy red cheeks in particular
and yes, i definitely have some self esteem issues it's not too severe, but i think too much about my appearance also, some days i'm quite content with my face other days, i don't even want to leave the house it may well be, that it's all in my head but, as i said, i compared myself now to some older pics and there definitely is a huge difference but that could have several reasons

YEah, Cigs are terrible for your skin. They are actually terrible for pretty much every aspect of your health but Im not here to lecture anyone on smoking.
That being said, if you think shrooms are the problem then stop doing them for a while and see if it helps. Get some sleep. Maybe you put on a little weight (in your face specifically, could happen just cause of age I would think).
Coffee always makes my face feel greasy, and cigs make it feel dirty, there is no worse feeling then waking up hung over after smoking cigs the night before and then drinking coffee to try and help the hang over...
Wash your face, get some sleep, and smile. Your only as pretty as you think you are.
ps. I have dark circles under my eyes regardless of sleep. Getting sun seems to help a lot (helps with the greasiness too), it started about a year ago and hasn't gone away since. Just happened as I got older I guess (I'm 20).

There is no way that psychedelics can affect your facial appearance, other than the expressions you wear while you're tripping (I usually look completely cracked-out, wide-eyed and crazy, myself) and your own subjective perception of your appearance.
As everybody else said, I'd look to the cigarettes before the shrooms... I know that since I started smoking cigs a couple years ago (I usually have 5-10 a day) my skin has gotten a bit drier and my fingernails have just gotten yellowish and ugly, not to mention rather weak. Tobacco is much worse for your appearance AND your general health than mushrooms.

This must really be bugging ya. This is the 4th thread you have started about acid and shrooms affecting your face. How can you be so sure it's acid or shrooms doing it or if it's really happening at all?

where do you get your shrooms from? grower or hunter?
shit like that seems to happen when shrooms arent cleaned or dried properly or just poorly taken care of before or after distribution.
you probably just eat your shrooms straight up I assume?

And there is where God lives, where the dead live, the spirits and the saints, a world where everything has already happened and everything is known. That world talks. It has a language of its own. I report what it says. The sacred mushroom takes me by the hand and brings me to the world where everything is known. It is they, the sacred mushrooms, that speak in a way I can understand."

I would imagine that you are somewhat dehydrated with all that caffeine you consume. Your skin is actually an organ(the largest of your body) and needs to be well hydrated and nourished. Eat plenty of fruit (avocados are good for your skin) and veg, drink plenty of water, and as already mentioned several times cut out the smoking + get some quality shut eye. Hope this helps.

Well let's see. When we trip we're not aware of the muscle contractions and decontractions that our face makes, and which are much more pronounced than when we're sober. Then we sweat. This also plays a role. I think that's pretty much why your face looks "ugly" when taking mushrooms. And just out of curiosity... why do you wanna be beautiful when you trip?

Though the negative physical influences on your appearance need to be addressed, you absolutely must not underestimate the significance of the psychological aspect of these concerns. For the physical, smoking tobacco (or pot) over time can definitely cause or exacerbate dark eyes/baggy eyes/circles under the eyes. One would also of course check ones sleep patterns in that regard. If you are in your teens or early twenties your body is still changing and so is your face. It is also at this relatively young age that flushing of the skin is most pronounced. If your skin is naturally pale then this flushing will be more noticeable, though this can be ameliorated at least a little by spending a bit more time in the sun (if you aren't already). Facial swelling and redness can be a product of weight gain (obviously) or an improper diet such as one high in salt--which itself can increase blood pressure which is linked with flushing. Regarding mushrooms, the worst they could do in terms of your physical facial appearance would be to induce a temporary, short-term state of potentially extreme stress or anxiety. Strong emotional reactions such as these tend to manifest themselves physically among a significant number of people. The effects of stress and anxiety on the body can be profound and are well documented when it comes to the impact of stress on such vital centers as our immune systems. This is why it's so critical to evaluate the psychological factors combined with the physical factors, and examining the effects both mental and physical of your current intake of stimulants provides a very relevant avenue.
It's clear you're experiencing a tremendous amount of anxiety related to the way you see yourself and your face. I can relate to a lot of that, having gone through (and still dealing with) severe social anxiety (and depression). When you feel like a hideous gargoyle you don't really want to interact with the Beautiful People. If I can offer a suggestion, I think--if you want to help yourself--you should try to focus on gaining a better understanding about the nature of your anxiety. That's why it's important to first run down the list of obvious contributing factors such as stimulants (even fairly mild ones like caffeine and nicotine) -- which may be contributing to your anxiety more than you are aware. Without doing a bit of process of elimination you might be inadvertently hamstringing yourself. You could start with some closer self-monitoring and self-observation, the former of which involves things like paying close attention to the number of cigarettes you smoke each day and the amount of caffeine you take -- and the latter of which involves trying to observe your own behavior from more of an objective, third-person standpoint.
(I feel like Tony Robbins, heh.) It might sound almost cliché at this point, but 99.9% of the time getting these things out into the open is a good idea. Your thoughts and feelings tend to be less chaotic and menacing when you start to put words to them.
P.S. Don't take mushrooms and hallucinogens if you aren't ready for them.

I hate to admit it but I've had the same damn thing happen to me over the past two years. Started taking a lot of mushrooms, started smoking, started drinking. Bam. I have permanent dark veins under my eyes.
If thats the main thing thats affecting your appearance, you can do WONDERS with this stuff called pond's age def(EYE) under-eye cream. I've tried other kinds of make-ups because its been so bad some days and nothing works, but this isn't a make-up like the others.
I quit doing all drugs and alcohol besides weed, and I started working out and eating heavily (I'm damn skinny) and eating healthy as well because I noticed that what once was the king of queens had become someone who almost looks sick.
I'll report back later and tell you if this change in lifestyle affects appearance. Obviously it will. But can it reverse the damage I've done?
P.S. I'm not blaming this on shrooms. Could it possibly be the vermiculite though? Theres a good chance its the cigs, but then why doesn't everyone that smokes get the under-eye red-cheek syndrome?
-------------------- I don't think for myself. I think as though I'm explaining my thoughts to someone else. I'm concerned only for those listening.

thanks for all the answers! i guess, i'm simply wasting too much thoughts and time for my appearance and that it's all a psychological thing it's just for my own ego, i feel a lot better, if i look into the mirror and see what i want to see sad but true...

Almost all of it has to do with self-esteem. I have seen a outright clear distinction between a sober looking "self" and a tripping looking "self". Everything about me is more attractive. My stance, my walk, my talk, everything completely changes.

those aren't before and after pictures. At least in my opinion.
when sober, and have a light in your face like a camera, the pupils tend to be a fuckin shitload smaller then that.

lol... so let's do an experiment who ever wants to participate: take a photo before you do mushrooms or lsd, take a photo during and take a photo directly after you came down then mail them to me (if you don't want it to be seen here) and, in case you are a bit paranoid and you don't want to be identified, put some blurring/other effect on the eyes, or cut them out i know, this is a pretty stupid idea but that's what our world is like: pretty fuckin stupid so deal with it and do justice to it thx in advance to anyone, who is willing to participate

i'm surprised that more people havn't agreed that they do look worse on shrooms or acid.
i have definitely noticed that i look a hell of a lot worse on acid or mushrooms than what i did when i ever took ecstacy or meth or any other drug.
like you said, my face goes a bit puffy, my lips become dry as fuck and all these red marks show up on my face.
i used to think that it was just because i was tripping and i thought this was happening, but now i believe it actually does happen.
next time i trip, i'm gonna take a before and during picture to make sure.

For the last fucking time lol.. shrooms are not going to change the way your face physically looks in the manner you are describing. There is obviously other influences.. lack of sleep, cigs, make-up, psychological?

my dark circles have gone away the red skin under the eyes got better still, i'm 100% sure, both shrooms and lsd affect your facial features permanently acid does it more than shrooms

i'm going to be completely honest with the OP.
Firstly, i know how people dont care about appearance blah blah blah, but I'd just like to say that i think that you could have a lot of potential to be really pretty if you changed your 'look' a little bit. maybe dont be such a mopey goth prat and brighten up a little bit.
no offense intended.
secondly, as i said in your previous threads, drugs do the same to me.
Pills will make you look worn out, after a hardcore night on acid i will look really cracked out, my skin goes kinda greasy, i sweat more, it gets blotchier, but i generally put that down to being awake for a whole night. if i have a whole night without drugs and stay awake then i'll look pretty much the same, maybe just less sketchy.
however, with 'afterglow' which i rarely get from acid or shrooms, i look normal.
drugs will tend to leave you looking a little worn down the next day, your brain has just run a marathon and your body has supported it, feeding it energy to do what it does.
it's normal, just everyone reacts differently.
i didn't read the other posts, so thats just my advice..
nothing to worry about, if you dont like how it makes you look and if it bothers you when you're tripping (it sometimes bothers me, too when i look in the mirror and i see myself looking hell-wired and crazy eyed) then perhaps you should lay off until you get a little more confident with yourself.
shrooms aren't supposed to be glamorous. my gf looked like a totally different person when she was on them

that girl on the pic is not me, mate i'm male and found those two pics on the web my facial features just look kinda similar when on psychedelics, that's why i posted them, so you can imagine somehow, what i mean with "ugly" like intense_cutn said: i look worse on psychedelics than i do on e/speed i actually am pretty sexy on e/mdma

what are low doses for you? what are high doses? how about lsd? same as for shrooms? too right about the mdma part, but thats mainly because of the biting and chewing and flopping jaws and smoking weed on the comedown

mdma doesnt make me chew and flop, it just chills me the fuck out.
low doses of shrooms is maybe half a gram.
high doses is just too retarded to even bother explainging
lsd doesnt have low doses for me. maybe half a tab of some average joe shmo acid is a low dose, idk.
but i dont seem to glow on acid as much as i do on low dose of shrooms. when i say glow, i mean that other people seem to think im radiating happiness and puppies

yeah but when you start blurring it up with other drugs, then yeah. perhaps it will make ur face a little redder, i dunno... people who take a lot of psychedelics just end upo looking like hippies, so i guess it kind of does change your appearance

Well when I trip and look at myself (not in a mirror though, cuz then for some reason I look normal) I look scary as fuck but it goes away when the trip ends. I've never experienced any permanent changes

the diuretic effects of mushrooms definitely have an effect on your face, as does the rise of blood pressure if you look into the mirror more closely after shrooming, you will see, that your face has lost quite a bit of volume and is way slimmer than before, just like with any other drug (especially severe with E and speed) but it will go away after a couple of days

Man, all hallucinogens make me look different, while I'm on them, like, if I look in the mirror, but nothing makes my skin fucked up like speed does... One use and i look funny and bruised in some places, and I'm covered in fucking scabs, pimples, and sores from picking at myself... Fuuuck.

I don't think It's strange to think that overextended use of a drug could affect your appearance. It's a proven fact heroin does for instance, and def. other drugs.

id think that its you that have a problem with yourself and under the influence of the shrooms you maybe can see that. i dunno... but id think that thats the case.
although from those pics and my own perspective i cant tell if youre male or female and whether or not youre over the age of 12 but thats just my perspective.

agreed, i think that either a) you just have an ugly face and are realizing it once your shrooming and you see things for how they are or b) you have a poor self image and this is intensified by use of shrooms

This sounds like an insecurity issue to me, mushrooms won't change your face. But I can totally understand you thinking you look weird while actually tripping.

To be honest, everyone here is just giving you opinions.
I've felt the same way on high doses... cheeks sunken in, head looks and feels smaller etc.
I believe it's because of dehydration.
Of course on low doses, it's the exact opposite.. In fact, i enjoy being in public on low doses because of the way you appear to others.
You sort of glow lol

to all the people saying it's an insecurity issue, i think that is rediculous. it's not like they are saying they realise they are ugly, it's just that their face goes all blotchy and shit and it makes you look like shit.

I think the girl in those pictures stopped washing her face on a regular basis after taking shrooms, as personal hygeine doesn't seem so important to some people when they start tripping.
You ever see how someone's face changes when they've been doing meth for awhile? Nasty!

 i don't see any change in that girl really.. she looks a little less happy maybe but.. she didn't look like she was jumping for joy in the first picture anyway
i've never heard of shrooms changing the appearance of your face except perhaps while you're tripping (and you just think that)
maybe you just look different now, because of age? or... anything?
if you don't see much difference in those pics than you're delusional and or/blind.
To the main poster, I know a girl who has a slight reaction to mushrooms as well.. I guess it could be some kind of allergic reaction to fungi
