Acid has always felt more electric to me. It's a hard way to describe it coherently, but the body feeling isn't as organic and gravity-prone as shrooms tend to be. Acid also doesn't make me yawn and fart constantly. Acid does, however, have more of a tendency to make my muscles feel tight and constrained toward the tail end of the trip. As for the head end, I always got way more of a rush off acid than shrooms.

As far as the visual aspect, acid and shrooms both have intensities that depend on doseage. The closed-eye-visuals on acid will be different, and more fractal and geometric than with shrooms. Open eyed will have an overlay with both. With distortion visuals, I think acid has more of a tendency to live in the periphery in most of its intensity, and center on where you're focusing in a decreasing intensity, as a gradient. Of course, if you take high doses of either, you can't escape from everything you look at being manipulated to a great degree.
Overall, I like acid for its more electrical effects, like the way light plays on edges in different colors, but in shrooms, I enjoy the way light distorts the actual dimensions of the room in such a way as, for instance, you can be sitting in your dark room watching a movie, and feel like you're in a theater.

As far as the mental aspect, this is more dependent on the person and the doseage, I think. I can go into the same mental states on either acid or shrooms, and to me, that plays the largest role in any psychedelic, but I think that's down to the environment you're in and how you process it. Both acid and shrooms, if you take enough, will get you where you want (or don't want) to go.

I'd say that tripping on shrooms is more wavey, dissociative, kind of muddles your perception of reality while providing you with the tools to create your own, while acid gives me a more lucid, clear-headed and sharp trip where everything is vibrant and like Freebase Dali said "electric". I think of acid as a night out in Tokyo, with all kinds of neon lights and amazing sounds blaring while mushrooms feel more like the world has been turned into a psychedelic bounce house.

I bloody love mushrooms. I used to do them in the days where you could still walk into those smoking paraphernalia shops in the UK that sell bongs and novelty ashtrays + lighters etc, read the mushroom menu (still got one somewhere actually) and then just buy some, all legal. Would definitely agree with the 'wavey' description of shrooms.

Never had the opportunity to do LSD, doubt I would anyway though. Haven't done shrooms since I had a bad trip on them once.

How long ago was that?

I don't really mind bad trips. I always learn something from them (which I'm sure to jot down).

To be fair this one was terrifying , my own fault though as I smoked some weed before eating the mushrooms. Got paranoid off the weed and then the mushrooms kicked in, it all went downhill.

Erm, this would've been 2004-5 and I believe mushrooms became illegal here in the summer of 2005? May have been 2006. Around then, but I stopped taking them before the reclassification anyway. I've considered picking them as they grow where I live but I don't fancy being caught in possession of a class A drug.

Good trips are amazing though, best feeling I've ever had off any drug I've taken.

I still don't have it yet. I will be able to provide deets in 2-3 weeks.
