shroom bar effects

Shroom bars are edible chocolate bars infused with psilocybin, the psychoactive compound found in “magic mushrooms” (typically from the Psilocybe species). These bars offer a more palatable way to consume psilocybin, as the taste of raw mushrooms can be unpleasant. The effects of consuming a shroom bar depend on the dosage and the individual’s reaction to psilocybin. Below are some common effects and considerations:

    • Peak: The peak effects generally occur 2-3 hours after consumption.
    • Duration: The entire experience can last between 4-6 hours, with lingering after-effects (often referred to as a “glow”) lasting another few hours or even into the next day.

Dosage Considerations

  • Microdosing (0.1g to 0.3g of psilocybin): Subtle effects like mood enhancement, focus, and creativity without hallucinations.
  • Low Dose (0.5g to 1g of psilocybin): Light euphoria, mild visual effects, and slight cognitive shifts.
  • Moderate Dose (1g to 2.5g of psilocybin): Stronger visual and auditory hallucinations, emotional shifts, introspection, and a sense of altered reality.
  • High Dose (3g or more of psilocybin): Intense hallucinations, ego dissolution, and profound mystical experiences.

Long-Term Benefits and Research

  • Therapeutic Use: In control settings, psilocybin has been show to have potential benefits for treating depression, anxiety, PTSD, and addiction. However, this research is conducted under professional supervision.
  • Lasting Positive Effects: Some users report lasting positive changes in mood, attitude, and behavior after a single psychedelic experience.

  • Legal and Safe Use: Ensure you’re aware of the legal status in your area and use psilocybin responsibly in a safe environment, preferably with a sober trip-sitter if you’re new to the experience.
