There have been multiple studies showing that on powerful enough doses even very experienced users can't tell the difference between the various classic psychedelics.

That's not a definite conclusion, but it seems reason enough not to necessarily hanker over one specific psychedelic if you've never done any of them. You'll probably have a profound enough experience on any classic psychedelic.

By the way, cannabis can be psychedelic in high enough doses (especially when eaten), so that might be a way to go for you, considering it's legal in so many places.. and it's generally a lot safer to get cannabis on the above-ground market than some mystery substance on the black market.

Depending on where you go, other psychedelics could also be legal. Dig deep and ye shall probably find. Just do some thorough research on what you're getting into, particularly on testing substances to make sure you're getting what you think you're getting, and on how to do them safely.

Weed is not a classical psychedelic, and if you smoke enough weed to get strong psychedelic effects you're likely to run into panic attacks, hypotension, nausea etc.

A few states are legalizing psilocybin, that'd be the way to go.
