> Shrooms take control while on LSD you're "the pilot."

A counterargument that a friend told me once: a psilocybin trip is like a wagon ride that takes you to what you need to see. LSD is like a jet plane that takes you instantly to where your brain wants to go.

I think it probably depends on the person. My first psilocybin trip was the most intense experience I've had, but then I had a lot that I needed to confront at the time.

I've had probably a hundred lsd trips and dozens of mushroom trips.

In all there were three trips I would call "bad", I went to what I perceived as hell. The mushroom bad trip was nearly indistinguishable from the acid bad trips.

In all three cases I felt immense gratitude for the trips being over yet thankful for the experiences.
