I'm sure everyone is kind of different, so take what I say with a grain of salt. But the weird thing is I love psychedelics. I feel like I was made for them lol. I have never had a bad trip on mushrooms or acid or ecstacy. Even that first time taking acid at the rave, I was pretty nervous after I took it at first, but there's so much going on at raves with the music and people and stuff that you kind of forget about it and then it kicks in and it's awesome.

My anxiety never bothers me on psychedelics, if anything it goes away and makes me a lot more sociable. It's not always perfect 100% of the time, sometimes coming down from psychedelics can be crappy, like an alcohol hangover (unless it's really pure, then there is no hangover really). But I've actually look lately about how psychedelics are being used more and more in therapy for things like anxiety, depression & PTSD (all of which I have) which makes a lot of sense to me. It's a very deep and eye opening experience, it makes you open up more and share things with people and makes you have more empathy and understanding for other people.

I think one mistake people can make with acid/ecstacy/mushrooms is taking it then doing absolutely nothing or waiting for it to kick before they do anything. Like if you take psychedelics in your quiet house, no music or anything, you might not feel it at all (or worse, if you take a lot of it you might have a bad trip) but the minute you turn the lights off and put music on, or play with led lights/glowsticks or give someone a massage, or go for a walk, it starts to kick in. One time I took acid with 2 friends and for 4 hours straight we listened to music while pointing led lights at the blinds on the windows in our apartment because it was beautiful and it was one of the best times I've ever had lol.

But if you are on the fence about doing it yourself, I think the best advice is just that if you are interested and you want to do it, and hearing stories about it sounds fun and exciting instead of scary and weird, you will be fine. But all those horror stories people hear about psychedelics like "don't do it if you are depressed or mad" or that you have to be in the right mindset or you could have a horrific, life alerting trip or can die etc. Is all not true. It's not as dangerous as the news makes it out to be. Just be safe and smart and you will be ok. I've only ever met 1 person who had a truly terrible trip, it was with mushrooms and it was because he took enough mushrooms to dose like 5 grown men at once.

Acid is the one I recommend the most for the first time, either that or ecstacy. Mushrooms I feel are better once you are a little more experienced with psychedelics because they are a lot weirder and can mess with your head and you can have actual hallucinations. Most of what you experience with acid is just everything turning pretty colors, everything feels and looks amazing, you get the giggles & have visuals, like a trippy looking poster starts to move around a little, or a bird flying by leaves a rainbow trail behind it (that actually happened to me once, it was amazing lol). Ecstacy is great at parties or just hanging out at home, me and my S. O. Do it every once in a while, it's a great bonding experience. I have a really hard time communicating my feelings with people, I'm really quiet. But when I take molly (molly is way better than ecstacy pills IMO) I am able to spill my guts and talk about almost anything.
