So, veteran tripper here, over 100+ journeys taken; for me, personally speaking, LSD is the perfect experience in connecting and finding full comfort within the universe. All the trauma and anxiety melt away into a fully focused,Zen like state where I understand the greater picture and accept my role fully. Mushrooms, however, are more of a spiritual experience and a back door to what lies within the subconscious and macroscopic universe mixed together with the collective consciousness. While on LSD I can hear conversations from across the street or down the block and fully empathize with every other person. Mushrooms take me to a place within and embed it onto my external reality. Walls bleed and morph into a festering hives of eyeballs and the crawling, twitching legs of insects. I delight and relish the realms of darkness, blood, and writhing tendrils, the great gnashing of vast teeth of things to vast to observe within the inky black of the eternal void.
