“I saw an uptick before the pandemic, but then during the pandemic it blew up, because the space was there for people to just do nothing and be outside.”
“People are starting to realize the positive effects of shrooms on your health—feeling less anxious, less depressed,” Haley, who has been taking shrooms for the last six years, tells i-D. “Feeling more at one with the world, at a time when everyone is super disconnected and socially distant. Even the most vanilla of people would probably try shrooms right now.”
“From mid-March until the end of May, I was home with my family, and then I came back [to Brooklyn] and my roommate is not here, so I’ve been pretty lonely,” confesses Mark*, a journalist. “Doing shrooms was an opportunity to spend time with two close friends whom I love and trust.” Dog walker Sydney has done shrooms twice during the pandemic, and felt a much goofier connection to a loved one. “[While on shrooms], my boyfriend and I took a shower together, and I peed in the shower. I thought I’d gotten away with it, but we had asparagus with dinner, so it smelled like asparagus pee, and we both laughed so hard we were crying.” She’s not sure if they’d been that close before, “but now I don’t care.
Our strange new world has given both newbies and seasoned shroomers the space to explore. Olamide points out that she may not have done shrooms without, and that knowing she could and should stay inside was helpful and comforting. Frank sees the present moment as a perfect storm that pushed him to do them. “It was like, might as well add one more weird thing to my plate.”
