What are the stages of a psilocybin experience?

1. Onset (0–45 min) – subtle shifts in perception, lightness in mood.
2. Come-up (45–90 min) – increased visuals, energy, or emotion.
3. Peak (90–180 min) – deep immersion, strong visuals, loss of ego, profound insights.
4. Come-down (3–5 hrs) – emotions stabilize, body relaxes, gratitude often follows.
5. Integration (next day+) – reflecting on lessons and how to apply them to life.

Every stage has its own rhythm — the key is surrender and trust.
