Psilocybin mushrooms, also known as magic mushrooms, contain the psychoactive compounds psilocybin and psilocin. These compounds interact with serotonin receptors in the brain, leading to altered perception, mood, and cognition. Psilocybin mushrooms have been used for centuries in spiritual and therapeutic practices. Research suggests that they may have potential in treating conditions such as depression, anxiety, and PTSD.

Do mushrooms have phencyclidine?

Mushrooms do not contain phencyclidine (PCP), which is a synthetic dissociative drug.

Are shrooms a depressant hallucinogen or stimulant?

Psilocybin is mostly a stimulant but it can also act as a depressant. It stimulates parts of the brain, producing its hallucinogenic effects. Psilocybin also stimulates stretch reflex (resist relaxing muscles), increases heart rate in many cases, and dilates pupils, but it is inconsistent. For example, lower blood pressure is a depressive effect which is common, but it is also common (to a lesser degree) to experience higher blood pressure.
