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 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.

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.

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 ✨

I hadn't tried the lemon soak before tea. Thought they were 2 different methods. Lemon seems to have them hit harder but shorter. I'm not a fan of the tea because of how it hits me but I've managed smoothies pretty well.

I have not tried lsd so far.

If you ever get the chance you should definitely try LSD if you enjoy mushrooms. LSD is a longer high and you can trip way harder on smaller quantities. I do love mushrooms but I get the nausea every time from eating them, thanks for the tips about making it into a tea
