Want to try shrooms. Dosage advice.

New here, registered to basically jump into the community and get some advice.
I want to try mushrooms. I've read so much about them that I believe I would enjoy using them on the odd occasion.
But, I'm a negative thinker. I've smoked weed a lot. Took coke once. And drank so much alcohol that I'm surprised my liver is still alive. I can handle weed.
I want to try mushrooms but at a low dose. Something that isn't going to last hours. Maybe an hour. Just to sample what a low dose is like and then increase it if I like it. Is this possible?
What I fear is being stuck in a trip for hours that I am not enjoying, or having a very bad trip. I wouldn't approach the session with a negative attitude, and I believe my girlfriend would join me in the experience, it's just the "what ifs".
Is a low dose possible? And what do you recommend?
Note: I am on low dose anti depressants for anxiety. But I can handle weed, and alcohol, on them. All they do is put my mind state back to what it should be.

I can settle on 3.5g. It's what I've been reading in other articles over the past few months. Just wanted to check though.
What strain would you recommend? I would be growing them myself - with some research - as they're not easily accessible where I live.

No that's not possible. Whatever effect you get is going to last hours until you excrete the actives through the liver.
Low doses will make you crazy and decide you don't ever want to do more. Not recommended.

I thought you was trolling me! Shows how much I don't know about strains. Going to take a look at this now.
Thanks

If your antidepressant is an SSRI, shrooms or any psych won't have an effect on you, I don't feel like looking it up but I think there's a risk of seratonin syndrome also which is pretty nasty.
Dosage advice isn't allowed here, but lemon tek (look it up) a smaller dose like 1.5-2 g's would provide similar intensity as an 1/8 with shorter duration.
Also if your worried you won't like the effects have a bottle of booze or some beer around, alcohol works rather well to calm a trip. Don't drink beforehand because most people agree it dulls the experience.
*edit
Doobie dude is kinda trolling you, PE's have a reputation as being more potent than the average cube.

Dosage advice IS allowed here.

Dosage advice Dosage advice is allowed in this forum. Remember that you have to take responsibility for your actions. We make every effort to ensure accurate information, but you should not take what is said as undisputed fact. Everyone is free to post here.
Anywhere from 2-5gs depending on the potency is a good starting point. 
OP should grow any strain that sounds appealing. PE will blow your mind similar to woodlovers, though. It's not any harder to grow, just can be a slower producer, if that matters.

The medication I am on is citalopram 20mg. But I can quit taking this if need be. Thank you for your advice, especially regarding the trolling + the advice on strain.
Any information that may benefit me is much appreciated. I am going to take the step forward.

Lemon Tek would be the only way to keep the experience short, but it will increase the effect of a smaller amount so dosing a "light" lemon tek is kind of difficult.
Also IIRC dosage info is allowed in PsyExp as long as it involves the classic hallucinogens.
