Thinking about trying Psychedelic Drugs

[jdjack27]

I'm 18, I've been drinking heavily (until recently) for 2 years. The drinking has almost been completely replaced by smoking weed. I have a good connect and have been smoking some great weed. I wouldn't say I'm necessarily tired of smoking/drinking, but the more I hang around people that use, the more I want to try something else. I've tried hydrocodone a few times but wasn't thrilled. I refuse to try coke/crack or heroine. Maybe I'll try E later on in college, but for now I guess my choice would be a Psychedelic. So based on what I've told you so far and the fact that I don't want to fall in and become an addict, what do you recommend?

Falling in and becoming an addict to a psychedelic drug would be highly unlikely. Sounds to me like a nice acid trip, or some mushies would be what you're looking for. 1-2 hits of some decent acid or a gram or 2 of some good shrooms would be about right for a first time imo.

For your first time tripping go somewhat light and get a taste. I would say do one hit of acid or 1.5 grams of psilocybe cubensis. Also you should only do it when you have an entire day to kill without having any responsibilities to take care of.

You sound like you're doing drugs just for the sake of drugs, maybe change that attitude, or psychedelics might confront you with the fact and scare you.

I'd say read up on a bunch and take whichever one that you can get your hands on which interests you most. Just start with a lower dose and work your way up, also don't trip more than once in a week or two because of tolerance.

Peace.

Salvia . Then when you try other psychs they'll be a walk in the park!

I've found that my intake of general intoxicants (booze, reefer, opiates, sedatives) has decreased greatly since i've gotten back into psychedelics over the past 3 or so years. One of the many good things about psychedelics is that they aren't addictive (for most) and generally after a solid experience, you won't want another for at least a week, usually longer. I'd recommend going to the PD index and reading through the Big & Dandy threads and also checking out Erowid.org and looking through the psychedelics you're interested in.

That should provide you with the info you need. Also check out the forum rules at some point when you get a chance. We don't generally allow "What should I take?" type threads. The reasoning is that only you can really make that decision. Feel free to post questions about specific chemicals in their respective threads though. And do plenty of research before ingesting any substance, psychedelic or otherwise. Learning about and then taking a psychedelic is a very interesting and fulfilling journey. Godspeed good sir! and hope to see you around PD
