Would you consider this an ego death?

1-2 hours passed after taking 5g and almost suddenly, I perceived I was the mushroom I'd ingested. For the next seven hours, I was a fungal spirit which was piloting a human body, complete with my host's memories. I shared this revelation with my partner, who played along—or believed me, I’ve never asked which.

“Can you water me and show me the sun” I asked, since it was nighttime and I as a fungi had an urge to feel the sun and water. They obliged by sprinkling water on me, and I would ask, "Why do I love the sun so much? What is it? Have humans figured it out yet? What all this is? They then pulled up a Wikipedia page of the Sun.

Next I stumbled to the kitchen, and marveled at human progress. “Humans are insane!" I said, as I started to relish in my newfound three-dimensional movement. Catching my reflection, I admired myself in third person.

I called my brother, mentioning myself in third person a lot as if I were not me. As the trip peaked, I had became more critical or judgmental in my mind of certain actions by my roommates than I usually would be- which I was uncomfortable with since I oddly still had a vague perception of my real self who is not critical. Suddenly, at some point, I was convinced I'd "unlocked the secrets of the universe" somehow. Paranoia set in—surely, sinister agencies would hunt me down. I imagined that the entire world of wealth was run by fungi-possessed celebrities and tycoons whom had knowledge of this.

As the trip peaked, I rode waves of mania surrounding this realization before gradually calming down. The next day, tingling and reborn, I wondered: Was I really possessed by a fungal spirit, or had I simply explored my own mind?

Yet I've integrated this experience by remembering that I was thinking of this speculative concept of fungi spiritual possesion via their chemical language, psilocybin, days before this trip - leading me to the conclusion that the experience was more of an exploration of my psyche and not that I was actually temporarily possessed, of course.
