    Mushrooms probably. If you take a low does its gentle and you can increase from there. Weed isn't there. THC is a psychedelic. That won't freak you out =P

    Acid for sure. While I have tripped pretty hard on acid and shrooms, it has been my experience that acid is like a nice, smooth steel roller coaster, while shrooms are like a mad violent wooden coaster. There's much more anxiety associated with shrooms than with acid.

    Oh, and THC is NOT a real psychedelic. The only reason it's classified as such is because the DEA are a bunch of fuckers who haven't got a clue. You will pass out before you hallucinate on weed.

    True, weed isn't a psychedelic although it does increase creativity IMO and I always get the randomest thoughts in my head.

    Just because you don't hallucinate doesn't mean it's not a psychedelic. THC is a psychedelic, though the weakest of all known psychedelics.

    American Heritage Dictionary - Cite This Source - Share This
    psy·che·del·ic (sī'kĭ-děl'ĭk) Pronunciation Key
    adj. Of, characterized by, or generating hallucinations, distortions of perception, altered states of awareness, and occasionally states resembling psychosis.

    n. A drug, such as LSD or mescaline, that produces such effects.

    THC does not meet these criteria, and therefore should not be considered a psychedelic unless you count the fact that it can sometimes alter your perception of time. But if that's good enough for you then I guess boring classes should be classified as psychedelics.

    I read that all true psychedelics are tryptamines and phenethylamines, so that excludes weed, but I read it on wikipedia so I have no idea how true it is.

    Ideally, salvia since it will familiarize you with some of the psychedilic extremes in a relatively short time. After that shrooms and acid won't seem so scary.

    personally i started at an early age(15) with smoking herb, i progressed to psylocybin at seventeen and have only just started my experience with lsd at 21 years old and have had no bad experiences other than my first mushroom experience which i put down to living in a hostel with goths(no prejudice) who just so happened to be having a party where a ouija board was the main show, terrible as a close freind had recently passed and they took great joy from trying to re-incarnate him... all i can say is make sure whatever you do that you acually WANT to do it and you are in comfortable surroundings with people who love you and you love equally as much..... follow this and you should have a laugh... in my experience only you know what you are comfortable with..... p.s peer pressure can be a bit*ch, wherever it exists, someone f*ucks up so best not get involved. much love jodyboy

    i totally gotta say mdma. it's not so mindblowing (at least not in my experience with it), and you get used to that indescribable feeling of feeling something that you haven't felt before. shrooms is imo a little too random and unpredictable, and acid is just a HUGE, mind-blowing, utterly profound and totally incredible thing, which can be a bad thing if you're not ready.

    maybe dxm, too, that's another good one.

    i'd say salvia, when i think about it, when i did salvia it was kind of like...3 seconds of a state of consciousness i didn't at all understand until i took acid a couple months later, but salvia is just too...i dunno, weird and not fun.

    I like that... i am in the same situation..i think i'll try acid because when i smoke pot i sort of get a mind fuck sometimes, but i think the trick is to think positively and have good music.. I will probably just do what ever i can get, but a small dose at first.

    But i wonder..is pot good with acid/shrooms?

    Some people like pot with shrooms or acid, some say it destroys the lucidity and whatynot. Personally I wouldn't smoke until the comedown. If I'm gonna trip, I'm gonna trip hard and enjoy the effects of the psychedelic on it's own and save the pot for later. At least for certain psychedelics.

    i've smoked pot during all of my acid/shroom trips, but then again, i'm a pothead. i was probably a little high when i dosed, smoked while waiting for the effects, and smoked throughout the trip. it's kinda a normal part of my day, so i just did it, kinda like everything else...just went with it. like i did normal things; listen to music, enjoy nature, swim (careful though), etc so naturally smoking pot was included. but i kinda wish i did abstain from it at least once to just experience the acid alone. i'm used to pot anyhow, so i doubt it clouded the acid experience to any great degree.

    you'll get a weird feeling, at least i did, that things like eating or smoking a bong are very "foreign" and hard to accomplish. it's very hard to explain but see if you know what i mean.

    most of my friends that trip like to smoke a joint while waiting for the comeup. and then usually by the time you are done, you'll be on your way...
    i also think that weed can kind of enhance the effects of acid; that is when it's first coming on or when it starts to fade. for me, smoking weed was "different" for awhile after first trying acid. like it brought back a little bit of the glow.


    in conclusion; smoking weed is great while tripping; do it if you want. but it is in no way necessary; as the acid will definately do the job alone!

    Ive always smoked when I used to tripp, just out of being impatient, after a half an hour of dosing I would wind up smoking and that would be the fuse to light my trips, without it my acid tripp would never really take off....

    dude from someone that loves trippin but hasn't any more... let me say I wish I would have waited and had more life experience before I started, in my mid teens. my mind and personality was still developing and acid can be a very emotional experience I think if I had a more developed mind I would have handled it better and would still be trippin today. basically to much, to fast and to young, can make you nervous later on.

    I wonder, after you smoke on a trip a few times, if you are kind of psychologically addicted to smoking pot with that drug. Because I used to smoke cigs or whatever with alcohol, and afterwards, I would almost sorta not feel fully complete with out something else like that. So does anyone know if this would happen with psychedelics and pot?

    I took LSD first, in 1969, before I smoked weed or had any EtOH. Totally turned me around. I tripped with some cool cats and a chick. Very mellow, guy doing Kundalini Yoga, me laughing my ass off, another dude going up and down the stairs trying to say something profound but not able to get a word out, me laughing my ass off going, "get it out , Ernie! get it out! Hahahahaha" and him totally flustered until he broke out laughing. It was in a loft with Indian textiles, candles, incense, and such. Set and setting, man. Changed my life.

    Stop the War!!!!!
