The term "frying your brains", I have a theory but may be wrong, was invented by the media to make all drugs seem "bad". Remember the TV campaign of the 90's that went: "This is your brain" then they show an egg then the voice-over continued with: "This is your brain on drugs" and they cracked the egg into a frying pan.

Some drugs can almost literally fry your brain leaving you not being able to finish a sentence even when straight/down.

AFOAF tripped 100 times on acid and that happened to him. His school mates called him burn-out and his best friend followed him around finishing his sentences for him.

He got over it with time and years later, got a high GPA in his masters in ed. programme and now teaches in an elementary school.

Mushrooms do not fry your brain. Never have, never will.

I once saw a irreverent t-shirt that showed 3 stills from the TV anti-drug campaign I mentioned above. 1st pic showed the hand holding an egg. 2nd showed the egg in the pan and then the 3rd was a pic of the same pan but somehow they added bacon strips next to the egg. It read "This is your brain
This is your brain on drugs
This is your brain on drugs with a side-order of bacon".

Even though all the research I've done shows that there is no negative effects from mushrooms, I feel guilty taking them all the time. That state of mind should never be abused.

Last time I checked, a bit of oil and heat is required to fry anything. I dont abuse oil. or heat.

Frying on heroine, coke, speed, E and other addictives.

Expanding with weed and mushrooms from my personal list and I'll "expand" the list to include acid and other non-addictives.

If you wondering if shrooms cause brain damage you probably already have it.
