I didn't have depression, but I wanted to try the experience after hearing how much someone I knew enjoyed it. I had a terrible trip (in a safe space, with good intentions, an experienced user I trusted very deeply, etc. etc. etc.) and suddenly developed pretty gnarly depression and felt like an unnamed part of my brain was missing/out of reach for over 2 years... I'm only one data point and my experience seems uncommon, but I definitely won't be touching shrooms ever again. It's only in the last 6 or so months that I've felt more "myself" and have been making progress out of the hole I was dropped into.

Entirely believable, literally nothing is 100% the same for every individual person
