Magic Mushrooms
Also known as: Shrooms, Mushies
What it looks like and how it's taken
Grow wild throughout Scotland in the autumn and are eaten raw, dried, cooked in food, or stewed into a tea.
Immediate effects
Similar to LSD but the trip is usually milder and shorter, often lasting about 4 hours. However, this dependant on the dose, whether they are fresh or dry and how they have been taken.
Risks
Short term: Stomach pains, sickness and diarrhoea. Poisoning by eating wrong kind of mushroom by mistake. Can complicate mental illnesses.
Legal status
The new Drugs Act 2005 has changed the law so that now both fresh and prepared (e.g. dried or stewed) magic mushrooms that contain psilocin or psilocybin are classified as Class A drugs. Possession can get you up to seven years in jail and/or an unlimited fine. Supplying someone else, including your friends, with magic mushrooms can get you life imprisonment and/or an unlimited fine.
Remember: Having a criminal record can make it difficult for you to get a job or visa if you want to travel abroad.
