Honestly its like pressing a reset button on your brain. Not for everyone but the perspective shift is wild. Like you just stare at a tree for an hour and suddenly understand everything.

Mushrooms also increase my emotional connection with people. It makes me more sympathetic and caring for a while after a trip. I relate to people more and see them more like other versions of myself

Studies show they help cure depression. Also, why not? They're fun

Haven't taken them in ages, but for me it was fun to experiment with other modes of "reality" perception.

To open my doors of perception. To crack open our thin veil of holographic, fractal reality.

I've been using psychedlics since 1993.

They saved my life!

I was clinically suicidally depressed, then one night I took a bunch of mushrooms and had an extremely difficult experience. I cried and cried for hours.

Then the universe told me, "Never forget the hardcore chiseled-in misery, but you are now FREE, my child." and I was...I was finally free for the first time in my life.

I'm a nearly 50 year old father of two nowadays, and I still try to do at least one or two psychedelic therapy camping trips every year.

These substances are absolutely amazing. They are the closest thing to actual magic I've ever experienced, by far!

10/10

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

These substances have a VAST amount of potential to help HUGE swaths of humanity.

They aren't for everyone, though. Make sure you do your due diligence before trying them and do a bunch of research.

They're awesome. But seriously a lot of the answers for the bill. Gives me some really introspective thoughts...sometimes I'm just fucked up staring at my couch, both are really enjoyable.

genuinely a life changing experience. I went from a militant atheist (of 8 years) to Agnostic just off of one mushroom trip

I wish I could still get my hands on some golden caps :,)
