how do mushrooms and LSD work?

I’ve never understood how they make people see things. Same thing with ayahuasca. Obviously, there’s some sort of chemical reaction within our brain like with any drug, but what about these makes us see things that aren’t there? Also, how does our brain create so many realistic images in front of us without them being real?

Short of the long is these drugs cause physiological changes which in turn cause your senses to take in more information than they are used to. This is why your pupils dilate so much when affected by psychoactive drugs. When your senses are flooded with all this extra information your brain has to interpret that excess information in some way and this is why colors become very vivid and ‘people have auras’ or ‘the walls start breathing’.
