EffectsPsychonautWikiEffectIndex
Visual
2Colour enhancement
Colour enhancement is a perceived intensification of the brightness and vividness of colours in the external environment. It is most commonly induced under the influence of mild dosages of psychedelic compounds, such as LSD, psilocybin, and mescaline.
Open full explainer on EffectIndex↗Visual acuity enhancement
Visual acuity enhancement is a heightening of the clearness and clarity of vision. It is most commonly induced under the influence of mild dosages of psychedelic compounds, such as LSD, psilocybin, and mescaline.
Open full explainer on EffectIndex↗Smell & taste
1Olfactory enhancement
Olfactory enhancement (also known as hyperosmia) is the experience of smells becoming significantly richer, stronger, and more noticeable than they would be during everyday sobriety. This experience can either be positive or negative depending on the smell and the person's prior opinion of them. For example, while certain smells such as food or flowers may become a true delight during this experience, other smells such as pollution or body odour may become overpoweringly uncomfortable, which can potentially trigger nausea and vomiting.

1Stimulation
Stimulation can be described as an increase in a person's physical energy levels. It is most commonly induced under the influence of stimulant compounds, such as amphetamine, MDMA, and cocaine.

9Anxiety suppression
Anxiety suppression (also known as anxiolysis or minimal sedation) is medically recognized as a partial to complete suppression of a person’s ability to feel anxiety, general unease, and negative feelings of both psychological and physiological tension. It is most commonly induced under the influence of moderate dosages of anxiolytic compounds which primarily include GABAergic depressants, such as benzodiazepines, alcohol, GHB, and gabapentinoids.
Open full explainer on EffectIndex↗Creativity enhancement
Creativity enhancement is a perceived increase in one's capability to imagine new ideas, create art, or think about existing concepts in a novel manner. It is most commonly induced under the influence of moderate dosages of psychedelic compounds, such as LSD, psilocybin, and mescaline.
Open full explainer on EffectIndex↗Dream potentiation
Dream potentiation is an effect that increases the subjective intensity, vividness, and frequency of sleeping dream states. It is most commonly induced under the influence of moderate dosages of oneirogenic compounds, a class of hallucinogen that is used to specifically potentiate dreams when taken before sleep.
Open full explainer on EffectIndex↗Focus enhancement
Focus enhancement is the experience of an increased ability to selectively concentrate on an aspect of the environment while ignoring other things. It is most commonly induced under the influence of moderate dosages of stimulant and nootropic compounds, such as amphetamine, methylphenidate, modafinil, and caffeine
Open full explainer on EffectIndex↗Memory enhancement
Memory enhancement is an improvement in a person's ability to recall or retain memories. It is most commonly induced under the influence of moderate dosages of stimulant and nootropic compounds, such as methylphenidate, caffeine, Noopept, nicotine, and modafinil.
Open full explainer on EffectIndex↗Mindfulness
Mindfulness is the self-regulation of attention so that focus is directed towards immediate experience alongside of an orientation characterized by acceptance and a lack of judgement. It can occur under the influence of substances but is also practiced during meditation.
Open full explainer on EffectIndex↗Motivation enhancement
Motivation enhancement is an increased desire to perform tasks and accomplish goals in a productive manner. It is most commonly induced under the influence of moderate dosages of stimulant and nootropic compounds, such as amphetamine, methylphenidate, nicotine, and modafinil.
Open full explainer on EffectIndex↗Thought connectivity
Thought connectivity is an alteration of a person's thought stream which is characterized by a distinct increase in wandering thoughts which connect into each other through a fluid association of ideas. It is most commonly induced under the influence of moderate dosages of psychedelic compounds, such as LSD, psilocybin, and mescaline.
Open full explainer on EffectIndex↗Wakefulness
Wakefulness is an increased ability to stay conscious without feeling sleepy combined with a decreased need to sleep. It is most commonly induced under the influence of moderate dosages of a wide variety of compounds such as stimulants, nootropics, and psychedelics.
