How Shrooms Made Me More Social - my own experience
I’ve always been curious about how certain drugs affect the brain, especially ones that supposedly make you more open or flexible mentally. Shrooms kept coming up. People always talk about the visuals, the introspection, the ego death—but what really caught my attention was something else: how they boost neuroplasticity. In simple terms, they make your brain more willing to change.
So a thought hit me: what if I took shrooms and, instead of just tripping in my room or going on some spiritual journey, I went out and socialized—on purpose? Would my brain actually “learn” how to be more relaxed, more open, more charismatic?
I tested it.
After the trip, I didn’t isolate. I didn’t overthink. I threw myself into conversations—especially with people I used to feel awkward around. My coworkers? No hesitation. Women? Easy. It didn’t feel forced or fake. I was genuinely enjoying it, like something had clicked. The anxiety or social friction I used to feel just wasn’t there.
The best part? It stuck.
It wasn’t just a temporary high. Even weeks after, that ease stayed with me. I felt like my social instincts had been upgraded—not because the shrooms gave it to me, but because they helped me unlock it. I just had to take the chance while the door was open.
To further test my new-found power, I forced myself to FaceTime foids and see how far I can keep the conversation. I managed to average around 2 hours HOLY FUCKING SHIT. This FT was only done on 3 people however
Disclaimer: I don’t know dogshit about the science behind how shrooms affect the brain, and all I heard was it heightens neuroplasticity so I tested it. This is purely based on personal experience, and may not work for everyone
