How Long Do Mushroom Tea Trips Last?
If you’re curious to try mushrooms but don’t want a full trip experience, mushroom tea can be an ideal way to experience its effects without going too high. Making mushroom tea is simple and the result can be pleasant, relaxing, and therapeutic; but before beginning this adventure it’s important to understand its length of duration as this depends on factors like what kind of mushrooms you use and their method of consumption.
Be wary of potential side effects of shroom tea, including changes in mood and sensory perception. You might notice your senses are more intense; colors may appear brighter; sounds louder or softer than usual; anxiety, paranoia or fear could occur as a result of taking shrooms; while these symptoms usually present mildly, they can become potentially dangerous in high-stress environments.

No matter where you shop for mushroom teas, homemade versions offer greater control of how much mushroom is being taken and ensure it remains fresh and potency. In addition, other beneficial herbs like cordyceps and lion’s mane may help relieve stress while holy basil and ginger may aid digestion.
Dependent upon how you consume mushroom tea, psilocybin may take anywhere from 30-60 minutes to kick in and the effects can last for six hours before gradually lessening in intensity.
Over-consuming mushroom tea can have serious repercussions. Overdoing it could result in digestive issues, difficulty thinking clearly or hallucinogen persisting perception disorder (HPPD), where vivid memories from your trip remain even after it’s ended. Luckily, detox from mushrooms in a controlled medical setting that provides both psychological and physical support during recovery increases your chances of avoiding future relapses significantly.
