Lingering too long in front of the mirror while on several grams of mushrooms began one of the most intense, frightening, and insightful trips I've had. The part of me that says "I," which speaks to you now, was pushed to the back of my consciousness, able only to observe, while three distinct personalities took over my body. Over the course of three to four hours these personalities conversed and contended with one another. Afterward I would come to think of these personalities as "the child," "the demon," and "the adult." I came away from this experience a changed person.

yup. My trip sitter turned into a sloth once too. There is certainly nothing wrong with it. If your not prepared to see yourself as a disturbing creature than maybe dont. And doing this doesn't hold any particular insights for me, but it is fascinating. I remember doing this on longer acting substances and having insightful experiences. I have only done this on DMT at the end of a trip.

I do it often..and it can be as beautiful as it can be terrifying...sometimes it is likethee is an entity on the other side that us baiting me to let it switch sides with me ..
