First time shroom trip after family death?

I have a close friend who's come here on holiday and wants to try shrooms for the 1st time with me. About a month ago her father committed suicide, and while she seems to have come a long way in dealing with it, I'd love some ideas on whether or not people think I should oblige.
I should note that like me she has a very spiritual outlook on life... and the reason for the trip would not be to escape from life but rather to experience something new in it. Also while she's here she's in a different country (and hence environment, friends, etc) than where the unfortunate event took place, and has only very happy associations here.

She might see him, or rather, memories of him, and become a little emotional about it. If you both are ready to deal with it, she will feel a lot better about it afterwards.

Agreed, this could very well be the best therapy for her situation if the experience is conducted right and with respect... I've had some issues that psychedelics helped me cope with and gave me the realization to move on.

well I dont think even God himself could predict how your trip will end up.
I think if its carefully planned, a good enviroment, and she is as stable as she sounds it could be very good.
If her father didnt committ suicide it would be alot easier.
Their could be many dark spirits, even her father around. Hopefully not, I would pray alot if you plan on doing this.
Too expect the best, I would still expect and outburst of tears from her, and you may have to hold her for the entire trip.
that is if she stays stable.
I'm too spiritual for that kind of stuff and would never in a thousand years have the balls to trip in this situation.
Not to mention I will not trip with females.......lol i'm not gay i have a wife. I've just seen way too many chicks who cannot handle drugs and ruin the night for everyone with their crying and so forth.
But if you go for it, good luck, I 'll do my best to send some vibes your way

And there is where God lives, where the dead live, the spirits and the saints, a world where everything has already happened and everything is known. That world talks. It has a language of its own. I report what it says. The sacred mushroom takes me by the hand and brings me to the world where everything is known. It is they, the sacred mushrooms, that speak in a way I can understand."

just be aware that any psychedelics are powerful mental amplifiers. if she is still grieving or has a lot of negative emotions surrounding her fathers death, they could possibly surface during the trip.

Hi Guys
Thanks for all the advice. I'll discuss with her everything you have all mentioned and we'll work towards a responsible decision together. If we do go ahead, of course I will be with her the whole time and be prepared to deal with whatever comes our way.
Namaste Gadi
