Did you ever have to explain your non-tripping partner that you take psychedelics?

I told my gf that i tripped alot in the past and still do from time to time with imo a responsible and careful use. She basicly told me she's scared that i'll change in a bad way and that it changes people like alcohol does sometimes. (Pretty nice guy -> Drunken shitface asshole dickhead).
Have you ever been in the position and what did you do ?

Nope, I've never dated a square before.
Good luck with that, though.

I couldn't imagine being with a non psychedelic partner. That would be really strange.

Sorry...but pretty much ^this^.
What would I do? Explain things to her as simply and logically as possible. But I wouldn't ever be in a relationship with someone that isn't open minded and doesn't understand these sorts of things in the first place.

mostly you can understand things only when you've experienced them by yourself

I was already married when I started messing with psychedelics.. I did shrooms at the beach with a friend and came home still tripping. Shortly after I was offered 'acid' and she was kinda opposed to the idea of me getting into it at first, but she knows when I get an idea in my head nothing will stop me. So she said I could do it once (to check LSD off my list, but wasn't really LSD I later found out) and that was it. I think she was afraid that I'd flip out or something. Anyways, once became twice, then I kinda just lost count. Eventually I started growing my own, something else she wasn't all that happy about.
Worked out in the end to her benefit though. I changed a lot about myself (for the better) due to mostly my experiences (and revelations) while tripping, especially on the shrooms. I've also since quit growing and don't really trip anymore. A phrase I saw thrown around here a lot was "when you get the message hang up the phone" and I kinda scoffed at the idea at first.. "this is awesome, why would I ever give it up" but I soon realized why. Just wasn't getting the epiphanies and such anymore. In the beginning it was hard for me to wait a full week between trips, now that desire just isn't there. I'm sure if I ever get the desire back, I'll feed it, but as of now, I think I've got all I needed from them.
--------------------
With my face against the floor I can’t see who knocked me out of the way. I don’t want to get back up but I have to so it might as well be today. Nothing appeals to me no one feels like me, I’m too busy being calm to disappear. I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear. You can't wake up, this is not a dream. You're part of a machine, you are not a human being With your face all made up, living on a screen. Low on self esteem, so you run on gasoline

educate her. are you educated? if not then educate yourself, so you can educate her. learning with each other is best, and you will both get a lot out of it. if she is open to it, that is.
if she is open to learning, then that is a good start.
if she is resistant, then you will need to be patient. if she cares enough about you, then she will be understanding and accepting of your ways.
if she is reluctant because of fear, then make her less afraid by being a good example, and treating her in a way that shows unconditional love, compassion, and trust. in the same way as a psychedelic would do, if you open yourself up to it.
be her psychedelic. and then maybe, just maybe, she will be willing to try real psychedelics.

It's kinda what i did and do, i dig your style.
She wants to try them, but i'm afraid that she's not ready to handle it and with the reasons she wants to take them with, the psychs will kick her nuts. she's also not informed too well yet.

I don't think I would make someone do psyches, I'd probably start them off low and then maybe bump it up to 2gs and we could smoke weed while having visuals, any more then that would kind of alienate them to the idea.
