    Other than LSD, what are some psychedelics that can give trips? Which would be probably easier to get? Anything that could be done at home with a supervising adult?

      There are endless psychedelics, but the easiest to obtain is likely Psilocybe cubensis mushrooms, if you are in the US, or whatever your equivalent is in your country. They are easy to find in nature in many places and extreme led easy to grow yourself with spores ordered legally online.

      In many countries, prodrugs of LSD are legal or semi-legal. A prodrug is a substance that is converted to a desired substance in the body, making them essentially indistinguishable from the end result. 1P-LSD and 1D-LSD are common ones.

      There are tons of pretty easily obtainable and safe gray-market tryptamines depending on your country’s laws. 4-AcO-DMT (acetylpsilocin) is essentially crystal shrooms, as it converts to the active psilocin the same way that the psilocybin in shrooms converts to psilocin. 4-Ho-MET (metocin) is a nutty substance that is extremely visual with relatively little challenging headspace.

      n,n-DMT is very potent and should be approached with respect, but it also extremely easy to make yourself. With one ingredient (mimosa hostillis root bark) purchased online you can perform a simple acid to base extraction in your kitchen, following a recipe as simple as baking something, using ingredients you purchased at a super center or hardware store.

      Mescaline is a ton of fun and differs from the lysergamides and tryptamines mentioned previously. It is a phenethylamine, and the experience has a distinctly euphoric and stimulating aspect combined with the trip. Cactus species like San Pedro and Peruvian Torch can be found in the wild in western North America and Central America, or cuttings can purchased online from anywhere. Extraction can be a pain in the ass so a lot of people eat it with minimal processing, but you will have to eat several feet of cactus material and you will puke as you come up. While it is worth it, mescaline analogues like methylallyescaline, proscaline, or even allyescaline to a lesser degree are the easiest way to consume this and much more enjoyable, but you’d have to check the legality where you are.

      There are also other mescaline “analogues” that stretch the definition further and are extremely interesting. 2C-B is the primary one that is still popular. It’s comes with great visuals and the kind of euphoria that you thought ecstasy would be like when you were a kid. There are other 2C-x substances, but most are hard to obtain in today’s age and very unforgiving for a beginner with powerful and overwhelming short trips.

      Stretching the mescaline analogues even further we come to the NBOH substances. This is the next generation of the infamous NBOMes of the 2000s. Unlike the NBOMes, NBOH drugs have a great physical safety profile and are much more forgiving. 25B-NBOH is a great starting place but 25I-NBOH and 25E-NBOH are notables. Despite being a mesacaline analogue, the effects are a bit more similar to LSD, although it is way more visual and has much less headspace.

      Speaking of things with more visuals and less headspace than LSD, there are also lysergamide analogues. AL-LAD is the holy grail, but I’m not sure if it’s around too much and is probably illegal everywhere. You can get to blinding visuals while still being able to generally function. ETH-LAD is another that is closer to traditional LSD-25 or ALD-52.

      There are endless other that I could talk all day about, but these are some that are generally safe and/or friendly and/or easily obtained.

      get some regular shrooms, ones with psilocybin. spores can be bought legally, or go to your local electronic music venue and ask the white dude with dreads.

      Microdosing cube mushrooms fits your bill. Blend a gram or two of dried shrooms up and mix them into a jar of honey and just take a spoonful every hour or two. You can learn a bit if mycologyand try growing them with uncle bens tek.
