Should i ever do shrooms ?

Psychedelic Community

Hey guys first time poster, I'm very interested in doing shrooms for the first time

But I'm really really worried about getting stuck in a bad trip because i overthink and overanalyse EVERYTHING, i can't even smoke weed because EVERY. TIME. i get stuck in my own head, it makes me feel horrible and it doesn't stop until i stop being high

I'm not diagnosed but i have all symptoms of anxiety and ocd, which tend to make people (especially me) think way too deep and incapable of just having a good time

A friend just told me that one time he took 6g, started to have a bad trip because he was feeling bad about his past and whatever, but then he blamed all of his bad thoughts on the devil and bad energy, then he was fine after that and went back to happy tripping

But I've never been able to just push bad energy away, so i worry that I'll become stuck

Also, a few weeks ago i took mdma (my favourite because it doesn't let me think) then smoked weed on the comedown and i believe i had a psychotic break, so I'm also a bit scared of my mental state

Does anyone have any advice?
