About this listen
Curious about psychedelics but not sure where to start? In this beginner-friendly episode, we break down the essential basics every first-timer needs to know before exploring substances like psilocybin, LSD, DMT, and more. We cover the most important harm reduction principles, including set and setting, safe dosing, trip sitters, testing, medication interactions, mental health risks, and what to do if a trip goes sideways.
We also dive into something most people don’t talk about enough: PAW, or the post-trip “after effects,” including emotional crashes, anxiety, derealization, and how to properly integrate your experience so you don’t feel mentally wrecked afterward.
Whether you’re just curious, considering microdosing, or planning your first full trip, this episode will give you the knowledge and realistic perspective you need to stay safe, grounded, and informed.
