Hey!! I'm an aspiring psychonaut, I've bought some shrooms that I wanna try out soon. I've had a growing interest and I've been wanting to try this out for a while now.

Do you guys have any advice for someone who never did psychedelics before? Rock on!

On top of what has already been said, the responsible drug use guid from psychonaut is really good, see "hallucinogen" section here: https://psychonautwiki.org/wiki/Responsible_drug_use

In my case I follow these ones:

  • test my drugs, 2 different reagent kits preffered, take a small amount! very important to not overdo it.

  • Good setting, a safe place where I won't be disturbed, phone off, or at least do not disturb mode

  • Set, if I'm going through tough times I tend to not trip, sometimes this helps to gain more insight and work on yourself, but the experience might be very challenging if you currently have lots going onin your life. (physical or mental wellbeing)

  • Sitter: having someone there, reassuring you if needed (I don't anymore, but definitely recommend for the first time) I tend to replace that with nice positive messages just in case (anchors).

last but not least, plan a full day with your favourite tv shows/food after the trip, gettig back into the madness that is life might be overwhelming at first, you will need time to think about what you experienced and reflect most likely...

ho and a very light stomach and a day trip in the morning is definitely imo my favourite, I get VERY exhausted from LSD, and midly from shrooms, but can't sleep on both even after 8-14 hours, so dosing LSD at 6 pm is not a good thing for me. Don't forget to drink lots of water!

Ha I somehow responded to your comment instead pf the post, sorry getting used to lemmy ๐Ÿ˜
