I'd have to disagree, despite being a proponent of occasional mushroom use. Any significant dose of psilocybin has the potential to turn into a VERY overwhelming experience. Especially for a first time user.

As others have mentioned I'd recommend starting with cannabis, which in my opinion very much qualifies as a psychedelic.

For sure, as I mentioned, it's hard to call any common psychedelic light or casual for that reason. But, 3 hours of too much is much much better than 6 hours of too much :)
