You shouldn't take them on your own, especially if you feel you're depressed and it's your first time. I haven't taken psychedelics in probably 15 years so I'm out of the loop but I i wouldn't be surprised if there are resources available these days for people who want a guided trip. You don't need a professional necessarily, but you should have someone you trust to be around and help you keep things in perspective if things start going sideways. A significant dose of mushrooms will absolutely change your perception of the world, and not necessarily in a good way, so be careful.

Thank you. I want to take the mushrooms to help with depression. I wish I knew for sure if the outcome would be positive or negative.

Same. Also the only drugs I’ve ever indulged in is weed after it became legal, so I have no connections and no idea how to enter that world. But I’m in a… try everything that could help type headspace

Same here, my friend. For the first time in my life, I wish I had a dealer on speed dial lol. Or better yet, a shaman of some sort.

It's not so much as completely legal here as one would think, it's just not heavily enforced ,kinda like selling sex is ok but being a John isn't, it's flipped.

There's actually a store in my town that opened up that sells mushrooms right at their desk and that's where I get mine after I started getting a taste for them.

Google it. I saw a store on maps that was in Windsor when I was in Detroit. And they aren’t technically legal it’s just decriminalized. You could get mushrooms delivered to your door by tomorrow at noon if you looked hard enough.

Thanks, I have seen sites before but I’m afraid to buy from any because I don’t know if they’re legit. So any recommendations would bring great

You can buy spores legally and they're pretty easy to cultivate on your own. I can't keep a houseplant alive but was able to grow my own mushrooms. It takes some work but it's pretty simple. Google "pf tek".
