The psychedelic effects of LSA occur inconsistently and are not directly comparable to the effects of classical psychedelics like [[LSD]], [[psilocybin mushrooms]], or [[mescaline]]. LSA is described as primarily bodily and cognitive with little visual effects. Many users report serious [[nausea]] and bodily discomfort ("body load") when taking LSA-containing seeds.
