I'm in a kinda same situation. someone I like told me that he liked me and I said I don't wanna be in a relationship rn and I'm afraid I'll lose him and the friendship we have rn if we took some steps forward and he was so understanding and said that he respected my choice but ever since that day I can't stop thinking about him or wanting to get closer to him. He's on my mind 24/7. I really don't know what to do

This is why you should ALWAYS have a trip sitter around who can intervene when things go bad.

Trip sitters are not just necessary for beginners, when people are used to taking psychedelics it's a known tendency to underestimate the risks and think "things always went smoothly so nothing will happen, no worries" I've had an old friend impulsively attempt suicide on LSD after years of frequent usage. Never underestimate the risks, always have someone around.

Normal psilocybin mushrooms don’t usually cause the effects op described (lots of experience). There are three possibilities, the more likely one is that there was one bad mushroom in the batch that “poisoned” op causing his irrational panic and memory loss. Or op has an underling mental condition that got triggered by this specific strain of mushroom causing his temporary psychotic episode. Or the stuff was laced with some mystery drug.

[Not so] Fun fact! I know someone that was involved in a scam like this. Except he used it on underage kids. He's now serving decades in prison. It only took one person coming forward to police to unravel a child porn ring of like a couple dozen people.

Not saying it's the same here but maybe these people have been successful elsewhere. Could be helpful if you felt up to going to the cops yourself with this info.
