Reply to comment by oldastheriver in Single-Dose Psilocybin for a Treatment-Resistant Episode of Major Depression | NEJM by 9mac

Interesting. I’ve just never heard of side effects like that. Whenever it’s being discussed no one ever mentioned side effects (other than the possibility of having a bad trip).

I think everybody's being pressured into accepting a scenario that's not real. I tried the psilocybin and was surprised at how sick I got, and it wasn't sickness before I was tripping but it was sickness during the trip. The sickness was coming on slow and the tripping was coming on fast and it was very unpleasant. And when I reported back to the group, everybody said yeah that's how it is. these symptoms are under reported, by the people that are extremely zealous and getting grant money.

Also, saying that you tried “the psilocybin” makes you sound like a Narc.

For this reason, I am not trying shrooms, and I'm going with LSD instead. I don't need shroom side effects like gastro distress (got enough) or racing heart issues I saw as common. A friend told me LSD is much better and easier on your body. I'm sold.
