Is there a name for the kind of deeply unsettling panicky feeling that these mushrooms instil in me?
Like I see these at the store and think, "Those mushrooms aren't supposed to be here. I know those mushrooms. They're not supposed to be here."
It's hard to describe. Is this the kind of thing you guys can help me with? I just want to know if there's a name for it, something I can google.

No they're just regular food mushrooms. I dont have this reaction to eating them. I would probably never be able to bring myself to eating one because I have this reaction to just seeing them.
It feels like a sort of danger response from deep in the lizard part of the brain. Like fight or flight.

its because mushrooms are not from earth. the came from outerspace. the spores can survive in space they came from some other planet and they scare you.

That's dumb except for the fact that "alien" is actually a really good word to describe how they feel to me. That sense that they don't belong somehow. That they're out of place.

Cordyceps are fucking terrifying and you should be afraid of them OP. Fuck anything that controls your brain.

>Hey, those mushrooms are not supposed to be here
>Better eat them
Or do you eat them, I don't understand

just your brain telling you that you're special in some way so you can tell people on the internet that you're a weird paranormal fungus man (like the Naruto headband wearing weaboo who told everyone he was schizo at your high school). look past it.

Maybe it's some kind of uncanny valley thing, although I don't exactly understand why it would be triggered by mushrooms.
