Hmm, I dunno. Psilocybin is really too unique in itself to just classify as some ‘type’ like any other, IMO. But the word I meant to say was Psychedelic, not psychotropic. Sorry

There is a difference between the trippy visuals and patterns; the “wild warping of the real” that happens with them, and actual hallucinations where you see/hear things that simply are not there. I understand most people can’t really tell the difference and simply think the weirdness that every -thing- is taking on is a “hallucination” when it’s not.

I’ve experimented with numerous hallucinogens and had countless experiences too strange to describe on psilocybin, but never seen or heard anything that was a technical hallucination with them.

Now, if the face melting skull you saw was not attached to anyone’s head, and floating in the air or something, then I would say that is indeed a hallucination. But seeing faces and skulls in things is a rather common pattern on shrooms. I know I have seen people (real people) appear to become translucent and melty or lose fine dimensional structure (looking fatter or skinnier or longer or stretchier than normal) along with all kinds of tint regularity, and seeing someones whole skeletal structure through their flesh is nothing new.

But of course I can’t truly speak for anyone other than myself.
