> psychedelics definitely give me visuals. However it‘s more like shifting and warping stuff I and not very pronounced.

At least with LSD and psilocybin, that’s what visuals are. You don’t hallucinate things out of thin air on either one of those drugs, things morph and shift and wobble and waver and shimmer and so on.

At least in the dosage ranges I have explored, 7g dried mushrooms and 10 ‘hits’ of LSD which was probably at least 500mcg?



With mushrooms it is certainly possible to see faces/eyes and such in certain textures like bark or cloud formations.


I was going to edit my post and add that mushroom visuals can be more tangible than the swirling/shimmering/morphing of LSD.

During one particularly strong mushroom trip I was seeing geometric patterns on surfaces that were very similar to ‘Navajo Print’ fabrics woven by Native Americans. It was uncanny, and I’m convinced to this day that those patterns were revealed to the indigenous Americans during psilocybin experiences.
