4 HOMiPT may be okay as a starter . I ' ve seen mixed reviews of it though . Some people seem to like and say it ' s pretty light . Others say it made them feel weird . 4 AcODMT is sometimes recommended by others as a first tryptamine . However , I usually say to wait on it . It is a trip that ' s a lot like magic mushrooms , can be very deep , instrospective . You can get good visuals but it also comes with some mindfuck , thought loops , and mental confusion . I personally feel that it ' s a nextlevel psychedelic , but not everyone agrees with me . Tryptamines and lysergamides are two broad categories of psychedelics . The tryptamine family includes magic mushrooms , and anything that ends in MET , MiPT , DPT , DMT , DiPT , etc . The T at the end stands for tryptamine . The lysergamide family includes classic LSD , ALLAD , ALD 52 , 1 PLSD , ETHLAD . It can be hard to explain the differences between tryptamines and lysergamides . Tryptamines are generally thought to feel a little more organic , while lysergamides have a more synthetic buzzy energy to them . The visuals can be slightly different too . The psychonautwiki project has tried to define what each feels like , so if you want to get a better understanding , you can read their descriptions . You can find the page for mushrooms . The page for LSD is . If you read over the effects of each you can start to get a sense of where tryptamines and lysergamides differ . They have a page for most of the other substances too ! A couple things to remember Marijuana makes almost all psychedelics much stronger when mixed . It can even cause people to have a temporary psychotic break if they do too much . It ' s best to avoid marijuana while on psychedelics until you understand how you are affected . It can be ok sometimes to smoke it on the comedown , but be very careful . People recommend having a benzo like Xanax onhand to try to stop a bad trip if it happens . But be careful with benzos , too . They can be very habitforming if you take them for any other reasons .
