Which Psychedelic should be my First?

Have you taken psychedelics? You're still alright eh, maybe schizophrenia isn't genetic.

 

It certainly is.

That doesn't mean every descendent of a schizophrenic will have it of course, but they will have a far greater chance of developing it than someone whose family has no traceable history of schizophrenia.

 

A Far greater chance? Other people have said on some of the other convos that psychedelics do not cause schizophrenia.

 

umm it doesnt
it unlocks it

I've been able to get away w/ doing all sorts of drugs and psychedelics.. was it a good idea... yes.... looking back on it now tho.... no. I recently found I have a bit of schizphrenic background in my family(after I started hearing and seeing things on a daily basis) that was hidden to me till recently when I made the conenction w/ my brothers medication and the meds used to help keep schizo people somewhat sane. I wont be doing psychedelics anymore... I'll stick w/ the basic stuff but no more "mind fuck" drugs for me.

I mean its up to you man... but if you display any depression or un social like traits or if your paranoid constantly about weird stuff like aliens or the government... I would say its not worth it. Sure there fun but do you want to go insane for 1 trip.

 

Dude! just think about the down side. I realise the up side seems great but in a way thats why its great being young, you don't yet give consequences the wieght that you will one day. Its teh best but also potentially the worst thing about being young.

Schizophrenia like most illnesses of the mind and body IS genetic. You may not have ANY tendencies towards it but are MORE likely to have so.

Mental illness can ruin your life for EVER or for MANY years until you find the right balance of help and medication.

Its simply not worth yoru future happiness. Althogh people get MUCH out of psychedelics its only a samll part and many people leanr all thsoe things without ever touching any mind altering substance in tehir lives.

as for the fun element. Hours of fun surely do not consititute as ANY form of compensation for yoru basic level and abiility to acheive happiness.

 

My dear Mas, I can see everybody here is telling you to wait a bit or to stay away of it. They are mostly right, but let me try to explain to you on a different way why.
Some things come only with age and I was the first one NOT to believe it when I was (that) young. But, you (and all teenagers) must agree with me one thing. Mostly young guys are driving like idiots, racing, compiting..... you very rarely see the old man doing it. You see mostly young guys fighting, very, very rarely old guys. I can go on with examples for days what young and old guys do or not do, but here is my point:
As young, you are still searching for who YOU are, trying to define to yourself what are the REAL values, what is good in YOUR mind and what is bad. Beeing in that state, you are confused what do YOU realy believe and what surrounding comunity made you believe. Taking psychedelics in that level, you will definitelly look on things differently than somebody who knows who HE is, and that will definitely confuse you even more in your search for YOURSELF. Since you will be confused on your trip, you will expirience things that you do not understand, causing first thing human feel when they do not understend - FEAR. Fear further leads to paranoya, schizophrenia and who knows what more.
You will know that you are ready to take it when you take acid hit and chaw it or through it with not even slight feeling of fear or worry what everybody will say. Than you will know EXACTLY WHO YOU are and what YOU think about it. Right now your decision depends on what we will tell you on this forum. I am not saying you shouldn't ask about it, but clearly now you are not ready. You are now trying to make somebody from us here to tell you take it, so you can feel less scared about it. If you realy decide to do something, you will do it no metter what somebody tells you, than you can ask for the best way of doing it.
I hate to sound like worried father, but I am trying to teach you to use drugs, not abuse them. Plenty people take drugs to run away from their problems, having excuse that they are looking for themselfs. I must say that you must first know who you are, and than you can use drugs properly to help you learn even more, and all what you learn on drags you must use in normal life.
I hope this helped you understand more!

 

Cheers for your concern man. I won't know if i can ''chaw through it with not a worry'' until i try it though. Can a small hit of acid really do any harm to my mind? like a quarter tab to get a feeling of what it will be a bit like?

 

If you ask me, schizophrenia is demonic possesion, so I don't beleive you can schizophrenia from psychedelics, unless maybe psychedelics make you vulnerable to demonic possesion (if you beleive in that???).

 

Well, without reading most of the other posts.. I would do Shrooms first.

My experience was with acid at a string cheese concert. The first half was fun and amazing. Then we went back to a kids house and there were tons of people there, thats when I spiraled into a bad trip, but I don't regret it...I learned from the experience.

As long as you are in a good environment and with few people who you know and enjoy their company, I either acid or shrooms should be good, but I think I would go with a lower dose of shrooms, 1.5-2g or so..and work up from there.

says an naive adolescent.
wtf is a 13 year old doing in the psychedelics forum anywho.
kid go outside and throw the football... dont do drugs till your at least 14 and even then hold of on psychedelics till your a freshmen maybe even longer.

 

SO I assume you also believe "demonic possesion" is clinically proven to be genetic? or do you not believe in science?

ANd i hate to say this but yeah... 13 years of age is fine to learn about drugs but allow yoru brain and self to develop for atleasr a few more years. Don't be one of those drop out kids who think drugs are cool and thats the end of their philosophy.

Sorry to lecture but i'm over twice yoru age (EEP!)

Stay educated and safe.
