What's a good first time psychedelic?

I have never tried any psychedelics but would really like to. I'm looking for a strong spiritual experience. Overall I am a stressed out person and I get paranoid pretty easily. I really think psychedelics can help me understand why I am having these problems but I don't want to have a bad trip. What do you guys recommend? I have had some people tell me to start with mushrooms. I smoke weed quite a bit and don't really get paranoid at all from weed, and some people have told me that mushrooms is like being really really stoned.

 

LSD or mushrooms are the two I'd recommend for a strong spiritual experience. MDMA also can be pretty good at understanding problems and is less likely to cause a 'bad trip' but it's better when taking it in the presence of others as where the other two you can search the depths of your own mind for answers better.

 

Mushrooms cut right to the chase when it comes to spiritual exploration.

They were also my first psychedelic trip, and I feel they were a great start!

 

Thanks!

 

Mushrooms are great

 

I did mushrooms my first time and I couldn't have wished for a better experience. Mushrooms are great when it comes to the mental aspect. Also, it's NOTHING like being really stoned. It is truly an indescribable experience

 

Lsd, mushrooms or peyote. Forget that new-fangled stuff.

 

I think everyone's gonna say Mushrooms or LSD. About 600,000 people try LSD for the first time every year, and about 15million of 300million Americans have done it. There are deaths, but for the most part it is extremely safe. Mushrooms would be good unless you are going through a hard time in life. LSD will become addictive if you are doing it out of boredom, or stress relief (which is actually a bad reason to take it). Mushrooms I believe are less addictive as they can be more "harsh" in parts of the trip.

It's not like being addicted to other drugs however. There is no withdrawal from stopping it, and it's a really personal reason that drags you into taking it more, so be careful with your intentions. Even curiosity will drag you in, do I regret it? no, but I sometimes wonder where I would be without it, and for myself I think I took it at a bad time in my life, which may have made me more "addicted" than I could have been. And psychedelics are not like anything else, they are really incredible!! I'd read a lot about each, here's a pretty descent site to look at:

It pretty much tells the solid facts. It takes the perspective of you shouldn't do it, but we're not naive enough to think our opinion will stop you, so if you do it, here's what to expect, and this is what you should know.

 

Whatever you can get your hands on. I don't think that there is really a perfect order to do psychedelics in. In my case, mushrooms became available first. If you are used to alcohol, a low dose shroom dose will ease you in nicely, but remember you are tripping after an hour or two, if your first dose is as low as mine it had such minor effects i could barely tell I was tripping.

In a perfect universe I would rather try LSD first though. LSD is easier to measure doseage, and I think it has a slightly lighter (I don't mean brighter, i mean just not as heavy) effect.
