First experience with shrooms

So for my first time, I took under 1 gram. Probably somewhere between .07-.08. I take an SSRI, lexapro. I've tripped pretty well with acid in the past while on this.
Earlier in the day I had a good bowl of oatmeal and some fruit, later on some veggies and hummus. I smoked weed the night before and hardly got any sleep, so it probably wasn't the best time to experiment. I ate the shrooms, gave myself about an hour, didn't really feel anything and then ate dinner.
A couple of hours go by and I didn't really notice anything, except that I was irritable, my guess was from probably only having a couple of hours of sleep. Some time goes by and I smoke some weed. At this point I was convinced the shrooms weren't working. After some time, letting the high from the weed kick in, I notice that I'm getting slight visuals on my computer screen. Nothing intense but stuff was a bit wavy. It was enjoyable but very mild.
I know there are a lot of factors here, probably the biggest being my medication. I want to try another dose soon, this time after a good night of sleep. My question is, what would be a good dose? I really want to experience a good mushroom trip. I don't want to go absolutely nuts with a dosage but I'm talking a pretty damn good one.
2 grams? 3 grams? Does my experience sound at all familiar to people who have not been on ssris? I'm wondering if I wouldn't have had any visuals without the weed combo.

don't take the ssri for awhile, they will actually prevent you from tripping. Personally i'd dose between 1.75-2.5 imo for the first time, thats actually around my personal favorite b/c i'm still functional (can change the music, play guitar, change the volume,etc.) but it's still enough to get mild visuals and a good change of headspace.

 ehhh, i haven't ever fucked with pharma so listen to him idk much on the subject :/ but i have heard from many users on here it's near impossible to actually trip when taking ssris and also serotonin agonists

yeah, i was on lexapro for a few years. it was exactly what i needed at the time. i did a long slow taper over ~6 weeks to come off of it. it was a fucking wonder drug for me, changed my life, but i don't need it anymore
i understand that people can trip while on it, but it requires higher doses than normal. i have no personal experience with trying to trip while on it

I've been on 20 mg of lexapro for several years for OCD. Funny thing is, when I trip, the OCD is almost a non-issue. I've had good trips with LSD and DMT but that one experience with shrooms was a little underwhelming. I'm hoping if I take enough, I can still get something out of it.
