LSD and psilocybin both have a chemical structure that is similar to serotonin, a neurotransmitter that regulates mood, appetite, and sleep. They mimic the effects of serotonin on the brain and can lead to altered states of consciousness, visual and auditory hallucinations, and changes in mood, perception, and thought.
