Actually mushrooms are safer than most everyday consumptions. Coffee, tylenol,and soda just to name a few all do more harm to your body than psychedelic mushrooms. In fact the average human would have to eat 500 grams of dried mushrooms to even have a 50% chance of dying. That's fact... Have fun man!

Hallucinatory drugs are EXTREMELY emotional and for some reason no one ever talks about that. The lows are super low and the highs are super high

In my opinion mushrooms are much more emotional and can turn on you in a second.

For example my friend was out of control his first time tripping on shrooms. Saying shit that made no sense and asking questions nonstop. This really bummed my other friend out and he was convinced we were gonna have a bad trip cuz of it and it was bringing him down. (Ended up being the best trip ever) This is the typical "Bug out" you hear about and some people will never trip again after experiencing this

Acid, however, is emotional as well, but not as much. You will be too distracted by your senses to ever get emotional. Sight, sound, and touch are significantly changed on acid whereas the visuals on mushrooms are not as changed and often become normal and you forget about them. The visuals on LSD will change you forever. Everything you see is the sickest thing youve ever seen. And music... the music sets the tone and flows through you

Also ur stomach will probably hurt on mushrooms

SO!! thats why i think you should get a hold on what acid is like before you do shrooms

Oh and neither is really measurable as far as safety is concerned but mice have been dosed with 1 000 000 hits of lsd and come out unharmed. like chem dawg said^^^^ all the stuff in ur cabinet is much worse for you

this is so but the OP asks the safety of one substance over another, not Coffee or tylenol. The ld 50 of lsd is quite high, perhaps propotionatly as high as that of Psilycibin.

You get emotional on both. Seen friends cry on mushrooms, and I know for a fact that acid brings me way down towards the end of the trip. I feel alone, and empty. I tried them both in the same day, but like acid more. Like LeGull said, you'll be too distracted by your other senses to be worried. Ive felt myself starting to get down on acid then you forget about it in 10-20 minutes bc you'll look or hear something that will catch your attention

Physically both are very safe. You may have some stomach upset with either but that's about it.
The dangers are mental. Taking either recklessly can lead to a bad trip which is no fun at all. Make sure you dose with good people in good surroundings. And again, I don't think either is any more or less likely to have negative effects. The key is respecting their power.

well if i can compare Shrooms to coffe or tylenol could you do the same with acid.... That was my answer..

Wow!!!!! That's some useful info guys. Thankks.
and one more question is there a possibility of a mental disorder after trying either of these. I keep reading on the internet that you can go "dumb" after doing any psychedelic drug

For those with an underlying mental disorder, drug use can be the trigger which allows the disorder to manifest itself. If you are prepared to face what might be deep down inside your unconscious, then trip away. If not... proceed with caution.

So true. But I think its not just mental disorders that manifest. If there is something troubling me in my life where whenever I think about it I say "WTF am I gonna do" than I wont trip. For example being unprepared for a test can be a simple one or being in a relationship you want out of. Much better to take care of these things first. You will be unable to avoid the thought of it and it will ruin ur trip

mushrooms dont last nearly as long as acid so they might be better for you physicaly
and probably dont drain as much spinal fluid out or make your brain bleed as much
and when it come to having a bad trip in my experiances acid is far more likely to give you one.
On mushrooms even when i have a bad trip it nothing in compare to the bad trips ive had off acid
im no scientist but i would say if you never had any experience with tripping or hallucinating drug i would defintly
try mushrooms before acid

I like shrooms more because they feel more natural. Not that dosing Lucy doesn't feel natural either.

becoming skitzo is one of the most common disorders associated with drug and alchohal use..it was a hige issue in the 60s and early 70s when lsd an mescal were at there peak popularity..and yea you can go "dumb" from using too much lsd mdma mushrooms mescal whisky whatever..everyone is a lil differnt though. i used to hear a story about a 30yr old guy who did two hits of acid lost his mind and lived in a nursing home the rest of his life..but i also know ppl who did 10ml of acid at once and return to earth perfictly fine and functional the next day. lsd Vs shrooms.. id say lsd is more dangerous ive played with bolth quite a lil bit lsd is more intence...if you can find good acid these days.

I prefer LSD but would usually rather eat mushrooms just cause they don't last as long. I prefer the body high of L, the visuals, and most of the experience, but its a 10 hour commitment at least. Mushrooms you can eat around dinnertime and still be completely functional the next day. And acid has the next day afterglow that is ok but not always good for other things (driving for one). Emotionally I think they both have similar potential for better or worse. Recently I really enjoy the molly mushy mix, thats alot of fun!

Acid doesnt drain spinal fluid. The only way to test for seratonin levels back then was to get spinal fluid. So after they suck a huge amount of spinal fluid out, of course you are gona hav less spinal fluid

And it also doesnt make ur brain bleed. ^^^ Addresses acid myths
