PHYSICAL EFFECTS • BODY HEAVINESS – THIS EFFECT COMES FROM THE RELAXATION PRODUCED BY THE PSILOCYBIN MUSHROOMS. THIS MANIFESTS AS A SUDDEN HEAVINESS OF THE BODY THAT MAKES MOVEMENT DIFFICULT PARTICULARLY DURING THE FIRST HALF OF THE EXPERIENCE. • SEDATION – EXPECT PHYSICAL ENERGY LEVELS TO BE CONSIDERABLY REDUCED. PSILOCYBIN IS KNOWN TO BE RELAXING, STONING, AND MILDLY SEDATING.

THIS EFFECT IS MOST COMMON AMONG INEXPERIENCED USERS. • CONFUSION AND FEELINGS OF IMPENDING DOOM – IN HIGH DOSES IN INEXPERIENCED USERS, MAGIC MUSHROOM USERS BECOME ANXIOUS AND TERRIBLY UNABLE TO FOCUS.

THIS IS COMMON IN HIGHER DOSES OF THE DRUG. • PERSONALITY REGRESSION – THIS IS A RARE EFFECT BUT MANY TRIP SITTERS HAVE OBSERVED SHROOMERS’ PERSONALITY TO REGRESS BACK TO HAPPIER, MORE INNOCENT TIMES. THIS NORMALIZES AFTER THE TRIP IS OVER. • REJUVENATION – IT CAN HAPPEN AT ANY POINT BUT IT TYPICALLY FOLLOWS A DIFFICULT PHASE OF THE EXPERIENCE. IT IS ALWAYS FELT AT THE END OF A PSILOCYBIN EXPERIENCE AND AS ONE TRANSITIONS BACK TO BEING NORMAL, THIS RESULTS TO AN AFTERGLOW.
COGNITIVE EFFECTS • TIME DISTORTION – MANY SHROOMERS HAVE REPORTED FEELING AS IF HOURS HAVE PASSED WHEN IN REALITY, ONLY MINUTES HAVE PASSED BY.
