Since muscimol and ibotenic acid are GABAA agonists, it may be harmful to combine it with other GABAergic depressants such as benzodiazepines or barbiturates. Ibotenic acid is also known to be a neurotoxin, acting via the NMDA receptor and metabotropic glutamate receptor. It is wise to dry amanita muscarias in the oven or purchase pre-dried amanitas to ensure the ibotenic acid concentration is as low as possible.


One of the major dangers of amanita muscaria is misidentifying it as a different species of mushroom. Several other mushrooms in the genus amanita are toxic. One such mushroom, the amanita phalloides, better known as the death cap, contains α-amanitin and β-Amanitin, both of which are extremely potent RNA polymerase II and RNA polymerase III inhibitors which damage virtually every tissue in the body. As the name suggests, the amanita muscaria contains the chemical muscarine, a muscarinic acetylcholine agonist which is known to cause seizures; however, the mushroom contains very low amounts that are highly unlikely to pose any significant harm.

If prepared incorrectly amanita muscaria is potentially toxic. Ibotenic acid contained within the fresh mushroom is known to be a neurotoxin, acting via the NMDA receptor and metabotropic glutamate receptor. Ibotenic acid can be converted to muscimol via decarboxylation.

For dosing, start with a small amount such as 1/4 or 1 teaspoon while you are awake, and see how it affects you. Each new separate day while you are awake, increase the amount by a little until you then have the dose or dose range you want to experiment with. If your liquid is extra potent you can experiment with this same liquid at expected dosing for several weeks (or all year if used infrequently).

Amanita as a psychoactive
Figure 1. Amanita Muscaria aka: Fly Agaric, Soma, Toadstool

Amanita muscaria (also known as the fly agaric depicted in Figure 1) is a psychoactive mushroom that grows widely in the northern hemisphere. The mushroom is a large white-gilled, white-spotted, usually red mushroom that is one of the most recognizable and widely encountered in popular culture 🍄. The mushroom is arguably[1] the Soma-plant in Vedic religion[2] as it is noted for its Lilliputian (Figure 3) hallucinatory properties, which derive from its primary psychoactive constituents ibotenic acid and muscimol[3].

Figure 2. Amanita muscaria lookalikes.

Although the fresh mushroom is often classified as poisonous[4], reports of human deaths resulting from its ingestion are extremely rare[5]. Furthermore, there are a multitude of recorded cases of low dose ingestion without issue[6]. The key to its safety is differentiation from the Destroying Angel and the Death Cap, parboiling—which weakens its toxicity and breaks down the mushroom's psychoactive substances and careful dosage[7]. To this day, the dried mushroom is used as a medicinal ingredient, and as a substitute for alcohol in parts of Russia as a narcotic by the Koryak people[8].

Differentiation

One of the major dangers of amanita muscaria is misidentifying it as a different species of mushroom. Several other mushrooms in the genus amanita are toxic and cause 90% of all fatal mushroom poisonings see Figure 2. One such mushroom, the amanita phalloides, better known as the death cap, which contains α-amanitin and β-Amanitin, both of which are extremely potent RNA polymerase II and RNA polymerase III inhibitors which damage virtually every tissue in the body. As the name suggests, the amanita muscaria contains the chemical muscarine, a muscarinic acetylcholine agonist which is known to cause seizures; however, the mushroom contains very low amounts that are highly unlikely to pose any significant harm.

Identification

Found in forests from July to October, this Amanita has a symbiotic relationship with various trees and is most often found under pines, spruces, and birches. The problem with the identification of the Amanita (and this is a general mushroom rule) is that rain may alter its appearance considerably by washing away its patches or draining its vibrant red to a paler shade. With these more superficial characteristics erased, it can easily be mistaken for an innocuous or edible look-alike. Beware of look-alikes!

Ingestion

There is a long history of edibility of the prepared mushroom in Japan[9]. Traditional knowledge highlighted that in its raw state this mushroom is toxic and inebriating and therefore did not ingest it as such. They consumed it only after certain preparations: "Dried, soaked in brine for 12-13 weeks, rinsed in successive washings until the water became clear. They came out alabaster white and indeed are translucent like alabaster. Prepared thus for savouring during the long winter evenings, they are delicious, excellent as hors d'oeuvres"

Pharmacology

Lilliputian hallucinations
Figure 3. Lilliputian hallucinations

The active ingredients of the Amanita muscaria are ibotenic acid, muscimol, and muscarine the highest concentration of which is in the yellow tissue of the cap immediately below the skin[10]. The first two ingredients act on the nervous system as GABA-A agonists within thirty minutes to two hours after ingestion, causing dizziness, lack of coordination, delirium, spasms, and muscular cramps. These symptoms are temporary and subside within four to twenty-four hours. There is some evidence to suggest that the reported lilliputian hallucinations (see Figure 3) mimic Z-drug side effects[11][12][13][14][15].

Toxicity

Amanita muscaria
Figure 4. Poison or Candy?

If prepared incorrectly amanita muscaria is potentially toxic. Ibotenic acid contained within the fresh mushroom is known to be a neurotoxin, acting via the NMDA receptor and metabotropic glutamate receptor. Ibotenic acid can be converted to muscimol via decarboxylation. This can be performed using a combination of heat and acid-catalysis with the potential for adding decarboxylasing enzymes such as milk / lactobacillus derivatives which contain glutamate decarboxylase.

Dose

A medium-size fresh carpophore with a cap diameter of 10-15 cm weighs about 60-70 g. According to literature reports[2], Siberian mushroom eaters used for moderate effects 1-4 dried mushrooms and 5-10 was considered immoderate use. For dosing, start with a small amount such as 1/4 or 1 teaspoon while you are awake, and see how it affects you. Each new separate day while you are awake, increase the amount by a little until you then have the dose or dose range you want to experiment with. If your liquid is extra potent you can experiment with this same liquid at expected dosing for several weeks (or all year if used infrequently). Effects will typically begin anywhere from 15 to 120 minutes after consumption.

Small-dose effects can include mild to moderate relaxing euphoria and warm body sensations, increased ability to meditate, as well as light muscle spasms and a somewhat energetic feeling, soon followed by a sense of peace and sleepiness. Sleep can be renewing, with intense, vivid dreams that are difficult to recall in detail upon waking. It can also significantly reduce the number of times one wakes up during sleep.

Contraindications

It may be harmful to combine Amanita muscaria constituents with other GABAergic depressants such as alcohol, benzodiazepines or barbiturates. Amanita muscaria mushrooms are not known to be addictive or dependence-forming, and reports even show that the desire to redose goes down with usage, though there is no research on this topic.

Effect

Muscimol as a potent, selective agonist for the GABA-A receptors displays sedative-hypnotic, depressant and hallucinogenic psychoactivity.

Hallucinations

Lilliputian hallucinations concern hallucinated human, animal or fantasy entities of minute size. They have been reported anecdotally for millennia however, in the 1960s while the number of medical publications on lilliputian hallucinations had dwindled, young people became fascinated with records of ancient shamanic traditions and expressed a longing to encounter the sentient, discarnate beings described after the use of psychedelics[16].

A modern retrospective analysis of scientific data shows descriptions of the ‘fly-agaric men’ and ‘amanita girls’ evoked by the mushroom Amanita muscaria show striking similarities to Leroy’s lilliputian hallucinations[17]. The same holds true for Chinese descriptions of xiao ren ren (‘lots of little people’), prompted by the consumption of undercooked blue-staining boletes[18].

However, the "machine elves," "clockwork elves" and "gnomes," seen after taking DMT seem to be substantially different from traditional Lilliputian experiences [16]. The literature on these events, which is commonly referred to as "psychedelic entity encounters," describes them as minute, mobile, primarily extraterrestrial, and frequently kaleidoscopically shifting. Their love of connection is another crucial quality[19]. These "entities" are mentioned in half of the accounts of about 60 healthy volunteers who received DMT intravenously, according to a comprehensive medical analysis of them[20].

According to reports, the creatures frequently lived with the volunteers in a "shared extraterrestrial reality" and probed, examined, tested, and/or modified their brains and bodies. The perception that the entities had been waiting for them to arrive and may have even started the "encounter" was expressed by 69% of respondents to an online poll of 2561 people who had used DMT by inhalation[21], demonstrating the reality of this realm. The stereotypical Leroyan experience of brightly coloured small animals marching or dancing around people's actual settings while completely unaware of the - usually puzzled - viewer is obviously very different from these experiences.
