Summary
Psilocin is the pharmacologically active form of psilocybin and is rarely encountered as a pure synthetic compound. It is relatively unstable and readily forms blue degradation products when exposed to oxygen. Store in cool, dry, dark conditions. Unlike psilocybin mushrooms, pure psilocin has reduced nausea when taken on an empty stomach. Set and setting are critical to the experience.
Perspectives
“Something has started but I decide to join in a full dinner anyway. The effects develop right through the meal, with some hints of animal faces in the pork-chop bones. No movement, nothing flows, but it probably wouldn’t take much effort. Another hour and I am dropping off already. The food? Somehow I doubt it. I would be completely unable to tell this from, say, 80 milligrams of MDMA except that I had a good appetite.”
