How do we know if is the correct moment in our spiritual path to jump into psychedelics for the first time? I really felt like this can be the right moment to try psychedelics, but the universe for now, did not give me any chance to get them somewhere. So i feel truly ready, but the universe is not. How can i know if i should give up the drug idea, and push more with meditation? It's really difficuilt for me to recognise ego in this moment. I may find really useful stories of people who already passed this situation. P.s. (i am almost 18, and into spirituality since 2020...really young here) (Forgive my simple english, i'm italian)

I'm having something similar. I have a friend into spirituality and meditation who had serious episodes of dissociation, she couldn't get out of her bed very often and her parents were thinking about taking her to the hospital some days. Right now i have frequent episodes of dissociation (most of the time they are mild) with your same symptoms. I am not scared at all because, i know what is waiting for me, because i've seen my friend's same situation coming and passing away. Probably i am also calm because i talked a lot about this with her. I'm solving this with a total surrender to dissociation episodes, let them come into and then go with complete acceptance and tranquility. You can also try to contemplate this state of mind, it can be really interesting and unique. I also think that when you are into spirituality and dissociation comes, then it will never let you go, you will not do everyday things and pleasures with the same state of mind, for me it is something that i must accept, right now and for the rest of my life.
