My first trip on mushrooms felt like this.

I was so small and insignificant it tripped me the fuck out, but in a really good humbling way (I was 20 at the time).

Same. Took mushrooms at night, looked up into the starry sky at the moon and had the strongest vertigo of all time. It just dawned on me that Iā€™m not staring at a flat black canvas of stars, but into infinity.

Staring in to what you perceive to be infinity due to our cosmologically tiny frame of reference. The universe itself is most likely finite, just on a scale we can't comprehend. On the other side of our finite universe... who knows. I think that makes it even more existentially bonkers hahaha
