@Oaktavia Amanita Muscaria? My friend and I have picked and made tea with Liberty Caps in the past, but he tells me he's also found Amanita in the UK and had quite a pleasant time consuming it.

I understand it's a different sort of high, but not necessary a one way to ticket to hell as with deliriants such as Datura.

@T4920 good to hear your friend had a pleasant time. Not something I personally would risk messing with. I'm just glad to have made it to the other side with substances in general. I have a don't risk anything anymore bias over here. I definitely wouldn't recommend anyone trying it unless they are a well traveled psychonaut that has learned the way.

@Oaktavia that's understandable. Psychedelics are more of a curiosity for me, I've dipped my toes in the water, but am weary of potentially disrupting the equilibrium of a (relatively) functional brain.

I find the science behind it all fascinating though, the effects various substance can have our the brain and how they can potentially be used in a clinical setting..

The book How to Change Your Mind by Michael Pollen is one of the most fascinating things I've ever read.

@T4920 I have arrogantly dove in the deep end a few times and I have a part Ozzy like brain as a result. Time seems to have healed quite a bit, but I was pretty frazzle dazzled for many years in my 20s. I don't want to say I regret it, but I for sure don't reminisce or miss it either.

Saw this beauty on the side of the trail today.

That is beautiful

@Denman-John Coral mushroom, some of which are eatable BUT depends on the species as some are poisonous. Regardless, they are beautiful. I have found purple varieties in the mountains around here.
