Magic mushrooms, which contain psilocybin, are ingested for their hallucinogenic effects and can be packaged as psilocybin capsules. Because they are psychedelic substances, they can alter a person’s thoughts, sense of time, and emotions. A person taking psychedelics may experience hallucinations, in which they perceive or hear distorted or unreal things.
Psilocybin is the active component of magic mushrooms. When psilocybin is consumed, it is transformed in the body into psilocin, the substance that has psychedelic effects.
Magic mushrooms come in a wide variety of varieties. The terms “golden tops,” “blue meanies,” and “liberty caps” are used most frequently in Australia. Poisonous mushrooms that can make a person very ill or perhaps kill them resemble magic mushrooms in appearance. They could also arrive as dried substance in pill form. Synthetic psilocybin is a white, crystalline powder that can be made into pills, capsules, or aqueous solutions.
