With acid, I find the experience much more manageable, even on higher doses, I can still walk and don't feel tired. Also, the experience for me is much more stimulating, both visuals and sounds. I did around 300-350 micrograms and it was both intense and fun. Not too much introspection.

For mushrooms, it's a whole different story. I did 1-2 gr "test-the-water" runs with some golden teacher caps. The first light doses only got me slightly euphoric, so I decided to go with 3.5 grs. That was when things changed. When I reached the peak, I went into this spiral of introspection and I really couldn't get out of it. It was so intense, at some point I didn't feel like "me" anymore. Visuals were there, but it was more like hallucinating when you have a fever, not like acid visuals. The most challenging part for me was the sounds. I was watching a documentary about baby animals, narrated by Helena Bonham Carter. Whenever she said stuff like "he's all alone", her voice got distorted, and I would feel like she is talking about me and become extremely sad and panicky. However, after I got through the peak and was able to walk and talk, I had the most amazing hike in the snow, I felt very strong and primal. I felt like I could be less stressed in my life, and as I could gave up some control and let things go. I talked to my buddy after and it was an eye-opening and meaningful experience in overall.

Happy and safe trips!
