alice and the mushroom
is the mushroom an allegory for doing drugs or does it mean something else?

I think it is just something put in there.
It certainly makes sense that Carroll got the idea from halucigenic mushrooms. Most of the plot of Alice in Wonderland reads like a drug induced dream, so Alice taking the mushroom is just another manifestation of this weirdness.
Here's a quote of the funny mushroom episode:
'Caterpillar: By the way, I have a few more helpful hints. One side will make you grow taller...
Alice: One side of what?
Caterpillar: ...and the other side will make you grow shorter.
Alice: The other side of what?
Caterpillar: THE MUSHROOM, OF COURSE!'
Enjoy,
