Psilocybin is a naturally occurring psychedelic drug, with mind-altering effects similar to those of LSD and mescaline. The effects can include altered thinking processes, perceptual distortions, an altered sense of time, and spiritual experiences, as well as adverse reactions such as nausea and panic attacks. Psilocybin is produced by over 200 species of mushrooms. Enthusiasts for the drug consider it an entheogen (spirituality-enhancing agent) and a tool to supplement practices for transcendence, including meditation and psychonautics. The intensity and duration of the effects of psilocybin is variable, depending on species or cultivar of mushrooms, dosage, individual physiology, and set and setting, as was shown in experiments led by Timothy Leary at Harvard University in the early 1960s.
