There are so many varieties of psychedelic shrooms. Some don’t have strong visuals, some can make you hallucinate far beyond the capabilities of LSD.
If you're talking about different species of psilocybin containing mushrooms like wood loving ones and what not, what are your experiences with them? I've only had cubensis mushrooms, but I assumed the primary difference between them would be potency considering they have the same active compounds.
other than that, i've had some insanely intense experiences with them, both pleasant and unpleasant. but i have not had much experience with other species.
related to the thread however, my experiences with good L were way more pleasant, manageable, and desirable. but perhaps that's a result a more responsible, less reckless dosing (i had some experience by this time, dosing in clubs and stuff) -- when i was eating mushrooms (spring time, quite a few seasons not really outside of that window) simply eating whatever i am finding on a hike through the woods while having an afternoon coffee, while not really knowing any better, sometimes meant i ingested way more than necessary, shrug. YMMV.
The visuals were very noticeable for me, but they would mostly enhance whatever it was that I was looking at. Peoples heads would morph and bend (the best way I can describe that is the music video “Drugs” by Ratatat), trees would breath and the branches would look like giant mushrooms, I’d see slight colors and geometry on flat surfaces, my phone would feel like liquid. The body high was also amazing. All of this for me was on a 7.5g dosage.
In contrast with LSD, it would completely change everything that I could see. I woke up once after going to sleep on alcohol/LSD, and it looked like I was in a cartoon, and I continued to trip for another 8 hours.
