Hi krazymones, don’t worry about being skeptical, it’s normal. After all this is a relatively new area of science and there’s much to be discovered. I was pretty skeptical too at first but once I read about other people’s experiences and tried them out for myself, I was sold.
Read the stickies around the board and the documentation section, which is pretty interesting and enjoy your new experiences!
One sticky I find particularly worth reading is this one: What pheromones can and can't do: realistic expectations for newcomers - It gives you an idea of what to expect
