What do shrooms do to the brain?

Answer 1

The main compounds bond in your brain in the same way that serotonin does. So you hallucinate and feel good. It also cases a rise in dopamine levels. Most trips last no more than 8 hours and there is some "after glow" effect of feeling good and brightness of colors for the next 24 hours or so. There are no studies that show any long turn effects, though the change in brain chemistry and the fact that long term use will cause the effect of you needing to take more and more to gain the same high could indicate that there is a change in monoamine oxidase in the brain. This could theoretically lead to a depression state as the monoamine oxidase is responsible for balancing serotonin levels.

Answer 2

Psilocin/Psilocybin (hallucinogens found in magic mushrooms) effect the central nervous system by binding to and toying with Serotonin neurotransmitters (which they are chemically similar to). The signals between them are interrupted or changed, resulting in the hallucinogenic effects. Mushrooms effect each person individually, and nobody really has the same experience.

Answer 3

shrooms make the brain bleed and the blood bleeds to the spinal cord and that is what makes people tweak and that can kill you or leave you in that tweak for the rest of your life
