Never done shrooms, or any psych for that matter
im 6'2" 265lbs
how much would I need to get OEVs and stuff for my first time?
 
For a first time 2grams dry is probably a good dose...if you have a sitter or have psychedelic experience under your belt than go ahead with a 3-4grams dry. IME shroom trips are more intense than LSD, although LSD may be stronger in other ways. Just be prepared and expect an "earthy" trip if that makes any sense. have fun, be safe, and trip balls
 
It's impossible to really say since the potency of mushrooms varies... I've had mushrooms where an eighth was not too strong, and then some where an eighth was too much. My first trip was on mushrooms and I ate a half eighth (1.75 grams) and it was the most amazing trip of my life. A whole eighth would have been too much.

I would go for 2-2.5 grams.

What setting will you be in? Will you be tripping with other people? Are you comfortable with them? Will you be in a safe environment? Will you be inside or outside? Will you be where you do not have to worry about parents or authority figures or anyone else that you don't want to know you're tripping?

A proper, safe, and non-stressful environment is even more important than your dosage. Make sure you've got a good setting in place before you trip.... or it's likely you'll end up having a bad time or worse. Or at the very least, you won't be able to fully experience the effects because you'll be too worried about something that could have been avoided had you planned ahead and made sure you were only with trusted fellow trippers.
 
ive eaten 1 gram of shrooms before that were almost stronger than an 8th of another, just eat some ..and make sure to be in a safe relaxing setting
 
We really can't stress enough the importance of taking it in a safe and relaxed, stress-free setting. This is because so many people, especially their first times when they don't know any better, think it's like other drugs, where you could take it and, say, go to a movie or go to the mall, or go to a party, or take it with some people they don't know too well and walk around downtown or something. All of those are terrible ideas. I know I said it before but it's just really, really important and a lot of people don't seem to hear it even when there are lots of people saying it. And that leads to negative, frightening, or even dangerous experiences.
 
In my opinion, it depends very much on your personality. Personally, 2.5 is what I dose a first timer if they don't have a specific doseage themselves that they want (And if they ask for something absurd like 5g, I make sure that they need to have more respect for the fungus and what it can unleash in your mind)

But I have found that it's important for the individual to make the decision. If a first-timer I knew to be levelheaded asked for an eighth of shrooms for their first time, I would sit-in sober, and talk to them, make sure they knew what they were getting into... but I would not say no.

The most important things are to know yourself, know your dealer, know your body, and know your mind (Bastardized erowid slogan!)
