There are a few ways, and while I haven’t personally done these methods, they’re all accessible through a Google search. So I’ll try and summarize but obviously most of this is probably illegal depending on where youre at in the world
I suppose if you wanted a decriminalized way, take a trip to Amsterdam and buy shrooms
There are also some churches depending on what city/state you’re in that if you join you can legally get some shrooms
Mescaline can be extracted yourself rather easily. You can extract it from San Pedro cactus, which can be bought legally iirc, however extracting it isn’t legal. You have options to extract it with either citric acid, sulfuric acid, or hydrochloric acid. Citric acid is food safe but least effective, hydrochloric acid is most efficient, but the cartel love HCl to melt people so it’s also the most dangerous. Sulfuric acid is how most people end up doing things
More generally, and also more illegally, you could (but shouldn’t) download the tor browser and go to dark.fail then copy one of the .onion links for a reputable market and buy whatever from there. There’s also a darknet reddit forum called dreddit. Make an account there and do more research
You should be prepared to do a significant amount of research on dosage and frequency given your BMI. But if you’re a 26+ year old female or 30+ year old male your brain is likely fully developed and experimenting with psychs a little might change you as much as it changed me back in highschool.
Some other hot takes and tips on safety
Alcohol should be illegal and GHB should take it’s place. It gets you drunk, keeps you clear headed, you don’t get a hangover, it increases your body’s natural production of HGH, and you get the opposite of whiskey dick. I rest my case.
If you feel responsible enough to play around with the forces of gods aka psychedelics, you should be responsible enough to understand any potential personality disorders you have and how those might mix taking psychs. Shrooms has made me less autistic, but I bet if I was a paranoid schizophrenic acid could have been less enjoyable (although I may be very mildly schizophrenic, I’m fortunate enough that it’s mild enough to not interfere with my social functions or happiness)
you’re on the open market, don’t buy something that’s so insanely cheap it might be too good to be true.
buying from a vendor with many confirmed sales and positive reviews is safer with domestic shipping than going through international customs
if you keep everything non violent and avoid drugs that might be laced with fentanyl or support the cartel (like coke or pain killers) you’re less likely to piss off the feds
Monero is more private than Bitcoin. You can buy Monero with Bitcoin through a decentralized exchange called bisq. You can buy Bitcoin there too but I normally get it through cash app.
if you use BTC on the darknet, make sure to break the link to you by selling it for Monero, then buying new BTC with that Monero. You’ll lose like 5-10% but it’s a small price to pay for anonymity
learn how to use tools like kleopatra to use PGP to encrypt information yourself instead of trusting intermediaries
be it shrooms, mescaline, or acid, do it in nature, in a location that’s easy to keep yourself away from sober people (much love to sober people but when it’s your first time tripping it’s easy, almost textbook, to worry that “everybody knows” you’re tripping) but also a location that’s easy to get back to civilization when you’re done.
Sometimes having something simple to do like hiking can keep you preoccupied and prevent cyclic thoughts. Sitting alone in a room can get me stuck in my head. I gained a profound appreciation for nature after taking psychs in nature, I really recommend hiking
if you’re doing this for the mental health benefits, They’re way more effective in a therapeutic environment. If you have someone you can trust to dump shit to on shrooms, well, I felt 100% normal and was able to immediately move on from my first break up after opening up on shrooms. Average person’s grieving period is 3 weeks but mine is closer to 2 months on a good day, and like 2 years on a bad day. Moving on immediately was incredible
bring Xanax if you can. It’ll end a bad trip, but if you’re having a bad trip, try and first seize the opportunity to develop good mental health skills and be introspective about what is making you uncomfortable. Being a human is difficult. But being a human that can control themselves on acid, makes every sober day after comparably a lot more manageable
If it’s the end of a trip and you’re ready to be sober, a beer can take the edge off and sober you off the psychs a little
don’t go into a trip expecting anything. It could be very spiritual (even for an atheist), it could be very introspective, it could just be a fun time.
I’m a stoner but don’t recommend smoking weed while tripping. THC is psychoactive and increases the effects of psychs. But personally it also makes me dumber and compounded with the introspection of acid just is less enjoyable
I have found a lot of guidance for pursuing my passions because of psychs. I don’t know what you’re into, but remember “There is no such thing as extraordinary people, only ordinary people, with extraordinary training”
I want to genuinely thank you for taking the time to write this comprehensive list.
I have always been interested in psychedelics although I am a little hesitant because even moderate amounts of THC have had profound effects on me. One of the first THC edibles that I tried led to a psychedelic-like spiritual experience (which I know isn’t typical so makes me a little concerned about potentially having some pre-existing mental conditions).
I have always been a goody two shoes with rigid beliefs about the world. Never had done drugs. Drank very little and only during celebrations. The THC experience shattered many of the most rigid constructs in my mind.
I then attempted, with no luck, to recreate that experience for a very long time. This often resulted in me laying alone in bed stuck in thought loops. Precisely why your mention of walks in nature makes a ton of sense, by the way!
Do you know how many mg were in that edible? 5mg should be plenty for someone with no tolerance. I forget if the presence of a certain enzyme metabolizes THC into something stronger, or if that enzyme breaks it down into something weaker. Either way some people get wayyyyy more affected by edibles than others. Combine that with a sizable dose and it could explain why an edible caused that experience
Here is all my wisdom
