Ehhh.. dude, you got a lot of research to do. Although there are a bunch of mushroom species that are pyschedelic, that is basically nothing compared to how many mushrooms are NOT pyschedelic. DO NOT INGEST MUSHROOMS THAT ARE'NT IDED!!!!
Stay here and learn all you can, take pictures, post them, let people tell you what they are. You can seriously hurt yourself if you just go around picking any old shrooms that are bruising blue. The1 was right, do not rely on just blue bruising. There are tons of things to take note of including spore prints, location, bruising, etc.
Be careful.

Yeah, if they are grown they are going to be legit. Mushroom hunting can be fun though, try not to be lazy and do a little research. You will save money and enjoy a new hobby. I promise.

Also, this time of year (depending on where you live of course) actives might be hard to come by. Growing is a very fun thing to do as well if you live in a house where you can do it without having to worry about someone finding out. Check out the mushroom cultivation forum in the forum index. It is fairly simple and very rewarding.
Welcome to the shroomery.

Buy the book
Psilocybin Mushrooms of the World: A Guide to Identification By Paul Stamets.
The most comprehensive field guide to the psilocybin-active species ever published, this field guide illustrates a wide range of species spanning the world. With excellent color photographs, nearly 100 species are fully described, including close relatives and poisonous look-alikes. A book without comparison, this field guide stands alone in its scope and describes many new species not seen in any previous works. Far more than just a field guide, this book will prove useful to mycologists, scholars, physicians, and the passionately curious. 6 x 9 inches, 256 pages. Softcover
