Mushroom Addiction

 

Mushroom AddictionWhat are Mushrooms?

The most commonly used mushrooms are non-poisonous but they do contain varying amounts of the conscious altering substances psilocybin and psilocin.  When eaten or drank in a tea they combine readily with the brain to produce a powerful psychedelic trip, shorter lived but similar to a mild dose of acid. And as with LSD, the effects vary greatly depending on the mood, situation and expectations of the user.

 

Overview:

Mushrooms are not physically addictive. Someone may turn to them repeatedly to escape from their everyday life though. A user may start by taking a small dose and then repeat the process if they don't feel the effects of the mushrooms within a short time.
