i wished i would have discovered them earlier in life.. i am in my mid twenties now. They would have been great guide in my late teens/ early twenties.. But I am glad that I found them anyway.
Sometimes i wonder how different i would have been.
A true gift from nature.

i'm glad i found morning glory at 15, and shrooms/mescalin at 16, and acid at 17 haha, funny i never really thought about this progression
i was just thinking about this topic, starting relatively young was good for me but probably could be bad for many, psychs require a certain maturity

I didn't want to try them until I felt ready which was at 18, I didn't even want to try marijuana until after 18 as well, so no.

Nah I think 19 was a good age for me. Wish I started smoking that herb a little sooner than I did

I discovered shrooms at 14 and don't regret a thing, even though I used them 'just to get high'. I had many great trips all throughout my teenage years and even figured out how to somewhat control my trips by focusing my thoughts at low-ish doses.

To he honest, if i discovered psychedelics in my teens, a lot of the BS i went though in life would never have happened.

Nope I'm glad I tried shrooms when I was 16 and wouldn't take it any younger than that really.
LSD however I didn't do until college when I was 19 so I definitely wish I could have done that particular substance earlier on because I never really got to enjoy acid as a teen like a typical high school punk. I see acid as more of a youth drug anyways it was just never popular in my area at that age.
I also wonder what it would have been like to take LSD as a worry free kid because that's how it was for mushrooms but when I first took LSD I was already an adult in college and I had more psychological "stuff to deal with" so the psychoanalytical nature of LSD really took effect. I bet if I had taken LSD when I was younger before I had real shit to deal with in my life it probably would have been a lot less psychoanalytical and introspective. I lost my innocence long before contact with LSD and all my thoughts about death and higher powers were already put in place by mushrooms and they didn't really change after I started doing LSD. The only thing that really changed after LSD was my views on consciousness and physics as well as art, nature and music.

I definitely wish I discovered shrooms earlier in life.
My first psychedelic experience was on my 16th birthday. It was a microdot of what kids called "mesk". That's what was around back then. I learned later that it was really LSD. I loved tripping, the part I didn't like was the come down. It took forever and it would keep me awake all night, making me feel like total shit the next day.
I didn't discover shrooms until just a couple years ago, a few months before joining this forum. I wish I had them in the beginning - instead of the "mesk" LSD. Shrooms wear off faster and I can get to sleep without trouble. That would have been so much better back in the day. Also, growing them in my closet would have been better than counting on some dirt bag kid to come through with the trips each weekend.

My first trip was when I was 13 or 14. Then the next trip about a year later. I went a couple years until I got into the psychs pretty heavy. I say around 18 it was couple times a year, and after 19 its atleast once a month, if not once a week.

I had my first shrooms at age 18, but I wish I had found them around 17 when I started weed. I would've been able to cope with high school better.

I was 16 when I first ate mushrooms, and it was just at the right time. It helped me cope with an abusive step father and made me realize there was nothing wrong with me and it was him who was crazy. I will be forever grateful to the mushroom for showing me I was the normal one.
