I’d like to propose the theory that being naked with your partner in a hotel room, on shrooms, might not be exactly the environment / setting most conductive to personal growth and introspection.

As you said, it’s fun, so you might have just marveled at the experience. The medical setting is a controlled environment, with clear goals, setup, protocol and licensed professionals on site. Also, the integration step after the experience is crucial for therapeutic success.

High-fiving your partner after having what can potentially be amazing shroom sex doesn’t count as integration / therapy. Mind you, I don’t mean to be offensive in any way, what you described is amazing and fun, but probably not therapy. It’s okay to do every so often though.

Also, very experienced people can attain therapeutic effects tripping on their own, but that’s generally not recommended at all. Shrooms have incredible potential, but it’s not a cure-all medicine that mystically solves all mental issues simply by tripping - you still have to put in the work.

I’d like to dispel the notion that shrooms replace therapy - they assist it greatly.
