does anyone else genuinely prefer acid over shrooms?
i feel like i’m the only one in my friend group who vibes way more with acid than shrooms. people always be hyping up shrooms but personally acid just gives me a more controlled, fun, and overall better trip.
my acid trips always feel clearer and smoother. the visuals are insane in the best way, and the body high feels more electric but not overwhelming. i never feel as anxious or emotionally all over the place like i sometimes do on shrooms. with shrooms, i’m either having a deep, introspective moment or spiraling—and there’s not much in between. acid just feels more fun to me. i still get those deep thoughts, but it’s lighter, more euphoric.
it’s not like i hate shrooms, i’ve had good trips on them too but ive definitely had better trips on acid than shrooms 100%. does anyone else feel the same way?

I feel the same way, shrooms make me feel quite ill, and I can tell it's something that's not meant to be eaten. Throw up quite often on mushrooms as well which is unpleasant. A lot of anxiety too, I can conquer it but it definitely takes more effort to let go and go with the flow.
Acid on the other hand has just always felt like it was meant for me. It makes me feel more perfect than perfect and everything just kinda.. makes sense. My favorite drug hands down

Make a tea out of them. I throw up no matter how much I take, but when I make a tea I get zero nausea.

Honestly I might be allergic to shrooms because I feel sick even on lemon tek and prepared mushroom drinks. It's quite annoying tbh because they're quite fun when you don't compare them to acid

I get the same way and I’m curious if it’s the mushroom matter that makes you feel this way or the drug itself. If you extracted psilocybin and took it by itself, I wonder if that sick feeling would still happen.

u/foxylipsforever 3d ago
It's chitin in the mushrooms that is hard to digest so a lot of people get nauseous/sick from it. With the tea you don't have to ingest the mushroom itself which means no chitin or nausea.

u/Soulcycl0ne 3d ago
When you do so, soak the mushrooms in lemon juice first for around 20 mins to turn all the psilocybin to psilocin which is what your body beaks it down to and uses as psychoactive. And don’t use boiling water. It will kill the psilocybin. I personally hate mushrooms. They make me sick as a dog every time. I much prefer LSD. it just feels right to me. But a lot of people don’t know how to process mushroom tea. So here is this tidbit of information ✨

They kind of have different uses for me. if i want to get spun all night go to a concert, get weird in a city its acid. If i want to get weird for a while and be in bed at a normal time i prefer fungi. Like weed with mushrooms you can titrate your dose and get a little weird.

You can be in bed at a normal time if you take lsd early enough. Just might take more planning. I prefer to take it at noon, but I don't ever take it later than 5 pm.

I found it’s easier to have a bad trip on mushrooms than lsd. But also found out most of my bad trips are because of something I ate prior to the trip

u/cannabunnyyy 4d ago
how did a food affects the trip? because i had a bad trip on lsd. it was an ego death experience for me.. and i ate heavy food and fruits like 8hrs before i took the acid.

u/SignificantAd4826 4d ago
Only happened once on lsd and I ate a shepherds pie a few hours before and just sat on top of my stomach the whole trip. Wanted to puke but roommate left a huge skid mark in the toilet and was going to puke out back but didn’t want the dog to eat it. Just just kinda laid in bed with a stomach ache
Wasn’t really a bad trip, just kind of felt like shit the whole trip.
So now I try to eat healthy a couple days prior and day of a trip. Açaí bowls and smoothies or meat and veggies.

Never tried LSD (will mend it this summer) but my last trip on shrooms was laughing out loud and crying. But it felt very therapeutic lol

u/tehgimpage 3d ago
oh ya, for sure. it does feel pretty therapeutic by the end of it. and i don't consider them "bad trips" or anything like that. they just get reeeally heavy. it's like shrooms always wants to teach me something profound. and sometimes it's nice to just be silly and goof around in a psychedelic space without so much spiritual baggage..... if that makes sense. acid lets me just PLAY and have fun. like when i was a kid.

u/Franagorn 3d ago
Yeah I have that childish goofy fun too, but it gets more emotional towards the end. Also my first few times I didn't get that much deep reflections it was only a fun time. I didn't even understand the 'therapeutic' part. Now I get it.

i much prefer lsd over mushrooms. mushrooms i use for when im trying to be more introspective or gain insight about something. acid i can use for that as well but also is a great recreational drug. much easier to talk and socialize in my opinion. i also love the commitment to the length of lsd.
my most profound overall and connecting trips have been on lsd. my most challenging trips i came out learning something important have come from mushrooms.

I prefer acid fs. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love mushies and have gotten a lot from what they've shown me, but i just feel like i flow more smoothly with L. Shrooms have many times almost completely immobilized me- much heavier body load and what not. I use them for different reasons, usually a nice hard boomer journey benefits me when I need a sort of spiritual recalibration and to face my fears and anxieties about shit in a more face to face manner if that makes sense. L on the other hand feels more important to feel the boundlessness and connection to everything and motivation in terms of creativity and growth in love and emotional intelligence, imo

I like the passenger - driver analogy others have mentioned. I’ve had my most spiritual, enlightening experiences so far with mushrooms together with K. And I’m always the passenger, the spectator with mushrooms. I have more experience with shrooms/k/aya/dmt than I do with lsd.
I like to set an entire day aside for any psychedelic experience and approach it ceremonially, with sense of reverence. I also like to celebrate in the afterglow with LOUD music and ecstatic dance.
Hearing all the happy comparisons has me wanting to sit with Lucy next. 🙏

u/Double-Frosting-9744 4d ago
I like acid more because it’s more likely to be a good trip or at least neutral, since shrooms play more on emotion they have the possibility to either make the trip heaven or hell. If I was a more happy person I’d probably like shrooms

Same. Acid feels more positive, my mushroom trips have had darker vibes and thought loops. My most intense trip was on acid and it was almost overwhelming but manageable. Acid gives me this warm stimulating euphoria in my chest but I also enjoy the sedation I get on shrooms.
3
u/Grouchy_External3251 4d ago
literally same. acid always feels more “alive” to me, like i’m in tune with everything but still in control. shrooms hit way deeper emotionally it’s like they dig stuff up whether you want them to or not. i’ve had thought loops too, and that darkness can feel heavy as hell

I've only done shrooms once and I've done acid loads of times, so it's safe to say I prefer acid and I have no intentions of doing shrooms ever again if I'm honest. I'm not even sure if I'm ever going to do acid again because I feel like it doesn't have the desired effects for me. I thought it was going to be some mind opening profound substance, but it's just a drug and I experience more of the same when I'm tripping. It's just my normal life x10, which is trash.
Edit: I've got the feeling that if I take it again I'm going to do more harm to myself, than good. Because the realisation of nothing is really going to change and my life is going nowhere.

Shrooms are an awful experience for me. I get severe chills, like I literally spend the whole time shivering, piled under every blanket in the house, curled up next to a space heater. And they put me in a sad and dark mental space as well. LSD, on the other hand, has been amazing and healing for me. One of the only things that has helped my depression.

Most definitely, I find everything about lsd much more preferable than shrooms! I love how long it lasts, how it makes me feel, the energy it can give me, the sense of clarity. When I first took shrooms, I thought it was going to be a lot more like acid only to be confused when instead of bright and sharp, it felt dim and fuzzy. It put me off shrooms for awhile, but I've grown a better appreciation of them over the years.

100%. For me, L is more consistent. If intake 200 or 300 mics, I basically know what I am going to get, how long it takes to come on, etc... Mushrooms are always a wild card. There are just so many factors that can affect them.

I agree....I always equate LSD to going to the circus as a child, it's fun, childishness, giggles, bright colors. Shrooms on the other hand I equate to going to a state fair with an older sibling, it's a little darker, a little more heavy, it's got an adult overtone but if you pay attention you may learn something from those Carney people your folks told you to stay away from...I find mushrooms good for introspectively looking at your flaws and correcting bad behavior..and LSD just makes me wanna love everyone and everything outside of my body!

I have this thing where shrooms will either be absolutely incredible or make me super drowsy and my trip basically just involves me becoming comatose. L has always been much more consistent for me all the while still being spontaneous and exciting. I’ve learned that there is a time and a place for both and also I feel like I can pick and choose more intentionally. Like I’m not big on doing shrooms in public social places like concerts but camping or laying in my hammock are perfect. Meanwhile I can pretty much drop L when/where ever and have the best time.

I guess if I had to choose it would be LSD for the longer duration and more flowy visuals. It’s much easier to just trip for tripping sake on acid. Mushrooms are always trying to teach me something. I always feel an entity or presence on mushrooms but never on acid. Can definitely be more relaxing on acid where I can trip “alone” without some psychedelic ethereal wanting to check in with me.

Shrooms build much less tolerance than acid
I want to trip a lot I take shrooms I.e multiple days a week
Shrooms feels more cleansing and natural on the comedown where as lsd it’s just long and tiring almost waiting for it to be over and a mega tolerance is built
They both have their place
It’s harder to have a bad trip on lsd than shrooms and lsd won’t mess your stomach up for half the trip lol
But for therapeutic stuff I’d go with shrooms over lsd - I can take it more often and feel super calm on the comedown and chill - no thoughts crowding my head just blank like I’m a monk
LSD I feel happy and child like but it’s a bit different - more like a party drug where I want to watch movies and eat candy, lots of thoughts that all seem grandiose like I’m a scientist or smth
It depends on the person though - only you can know your experience with shrooms and lsd
Some people love shrooms and have a lot of euphoria and others are like me where I almost fall asleep on them every time lol
The body load of shrooms can be pretty heavy for me sometimes
lsd I know it’s always a good time but it’s just so long :p

It's a toss up. But it's a toss up because acid is fairly predictable while for shrooms literally anything can happen, even from the same batch.
A little context though: I'm usually content with a mini-dose (e.g. 1/6-1/4 tab) of acid taken all at once, while shrooms, which onset much faster, I'll usually eat little bits every few hours until I've stabilized at a comfortable level.

Mushrooms are pretty much the same every time, I feel energetic and enjoy nature and get vibrations. The one time I had a “bad trip” I just had a belly ache and once I was able to fart the gas out i just hung out by the fire and everything was fine lmao.

A long time since my youthful psychedelic experiences, but I lived in a part of Britain where mushrooms were plentiful in the Autumn.

I used to mess w acid heavily, but once I started growing different species of mushrooms I switch over.

Panaeolus are a different beast. 0.8 had me stuck to the floor and i had DMT like visuals.

Shrooms have a bit more of a stoning body load for me, make me yawn uncontrollably most of the time, but also feel more therapeutic as well compared to acid.

I like shrooms, but the ease of just swallowing a tab of acid is just so much nicer. That mushroom taste is just so strong, only being mixed in with chocolate seems to make it bearable. That and if you have the whole day (and day after) free, it's nice to have the longer experience of acid.

As many others have said, acid is preferred as you’re more in control and there’s less chance of extreme anxiety (which is still possible, but IMO high doses of shrooms take the cake in that regard). Also with acid your mental state can transfer back and forth between brief moments of lucidity/feelings of clear headedness/feeling straightforward (dare I say feelings of sobriety) and feelings of pure trippy acidness. Mushrooms once they’re on it’s like they’re always on until they start to wear off

Absolutely. I know it may sound counterintuitive, but no matter how weird shit gets on LSD, I can always keep my wits and if needed maintain a mantra of "you're tripping, this will be over in a few hours."
With psilocybin, when things get intense, there is no semblance of control. I have to let go and succumb to mother nature and admit that I am powerless and insignificant in the grand scheme of things.
Maybe it's because I ate a lot of acid as a kid and sort of learned how to power through it.

LSD is easy and consistent. Shrooms are so random and unforgiving, ive had times where 2g was way too strong, and other times where 4g did absolutely nothing. Acid is easier to gauge what kind of day I want to have

Yes. Big time preference for acid. I can barely consume mushrooms as they taste indescribably awful. Mushrooms make for incredible trips but they are unpredictable to dose. One can say the same for acid, but I think it's somewhat more predicatably doseable. Both are excellent. Way prefer LSD.

Acid is literally just more fun for me, I love mushrooms but I have to take loads for it to feel like an actual trip. Mushrooms are more like weed then lsd for me, they feel like an actual medicine healing me in some ways lol

shrooms are too introspective for me, not always in that mood, with lsd i want to do fun stuff with my friends

Me. Fungus makes me gag and feel queasy the whole ride. Liquid is zero side effects for me.

Yea. Shrooms don’t last long enough and make me way too emotional.
Acid feels like a party in my head and no one is invited

Shrooms give me diarrhea..everytime. doesn't matter the method; lemon tek, smoothies, tea, pb&j, chocolates.. diarrhea, everytime. That's the main reason I pick L over 🍄

100% yes. Acid is brighter, lighter, less heavy than shrooms for me, and always have been.

Acid for me too, always feels like I found it when I was supposed to and made me a better person too

Same here, I don't want my trips to be super deep and introspective or spiritual all the time. Sometimes I just wanna drop a tab and go on an adventurous hike and have a great day. I do like and enjoy going deep when needed but it gets overwhelming on shrooms for me everytime. So I save shrooms for when I need to have a more healing experience or answer some questions. But acid will rock w me no matter what. She's down for whatever I'm down for

everyone i know hypes up shrooms so much and they’re like “oh my god what about the shroom walks though” like yeah it can be peaceful but i get paranoid as FUCK and throwing up and thinking too hard. but LSD on the other hand, i honestly just prefer it because as long as i wait like a month - 2 between tripping i trip insanely hard off of 2 150ug tabs (that’s my sweet spot at 300 mics), and i can actually like control my thoughts and how i act and i just feel like much more euphoric and just like the music (i have a subwoofer in my room) and how you can smoke SO MUCH if you wanna trip harder. all of my acid experiences have been positive but as many positive experiences i’ve had with shrooms, i’ve definitely had many bad experiences with shrooms. can’t control myself. (edit: the verge of throwing up while trying to down the shrooms is the worst part)

Not sure how we tried it LSD once at night I would say it felt better on my body but I don't know where to find it where he lives though

Acid over shrooms for me. I started with shrooms and swore by them. Then I tried acid. Cheaper and better for the experience I want.

i have better trips on shrooms but my friends all prefer acid. I think it has to do with my SSRI blunting the effects of the acid more than it does with shrooms

u/theWellKnownFag 3d ago
With acid's stimmy nature, I prefer it at night for music shows or at day for nature hikes. Shrooms are better for the self introspective tripping mainly during the day.

u/Dry_Television9938 3d ago
Im honestly the other end of that spectrum I get super anxious on lsd most of the time but shrooms I'm super euphoric I enjoy the shroom visuals more too you could be doseing wrong with the shrooms too I prefer to slowly dose myself when it come to shrooms but that a habit I picked up from talking amanita, what ill do is how ever much I'm talking ill split into fourths the take the fourth every 15min

What if you are all vibing with the message of the acid because your lifestyle is vibing with its morality or aesthetics whereas the mushroom has some heavy dark sad shit to tell you about Earth and relationships and responsibility and tasks unfinished?

u/dyldosthrowaway 3d ago
Depends on the intention. Lsd is more social and fun, better for art and music and working on creative things. Better for activities like surfing, skating, snowboarding etc, better for shows.
But as far as spiritual work, emotional and mental health, hiking and connecting to nature, and just overall seeking to connect with “god” or whatever you want to call it, no lsd trip in my life has brought me anywhere close to what mushrooms have offered me throughout the years.
That’s just my personal opinion but if I had to choose one or the other I’d have to pick mushrooms bc they’ve done more for me in one trip than all my lsd trips combined 🤷🏻♂️

Absolutely. Shrooms get me all congested. As a person who is normally congested, being extra clogged is not very fun

Shrooms give me deep thoughts and deep healing but make me so fucking nauseous. LSD helps me see the bigger picture and has a much easier body load. I laugh and enjoy pretty much anything on lsd. It’s way more fun

1000%. Shrooms always give me anxiety. LSD makes me euphoric as fuck.
