In reply to Glenn. Grow them yourself. Easy. Just be patient and follow sterilization procedures to keep other fungi out of the mycelium. Also, lots of fun to watch them grow.

Dropped acid during college and at many a Dead concert, and I have to say it was not entirely the enjoyable experience everyone else seems to recall here. The first 2-3 hours were a blast, full of cool visuals, laughter, energy, and revelations, but then it would wane, and for the next 5-6 hours the good vibes were gradually replaced with an equal amount of anxiety, sadness, and paranoia. Sleep was not an option for my over-stimulated mind until at least 15-20 hours after dropping. This led me and most of my friends to agree that “acid is a commitment”, because you would lose the better part of a weekend recovering. We stopped doing it by the mid 80s. My question is why wouldn’t the microdosing follow a similar pattern: (mildly) euphoric high followed by a less intense bummer?

I cannot wait to see what mushrooms can offer in the future of medicine. I hope that this magical plant would not be abused and misused. Everything, if used properly and moderately proves to be beneficial. Thank you for sharing and spreading awareness!

Hi Stuart,

I recently completed a psylocibin study for alcohol dependence and I haven’t had a drink since. My new identity that was created through that series of sessions has no intersection with the consumption of alcohol. I’d love to speak with you about your experience.

Thanks,

Bill

In reply to Popeye79. i completely relate to almost everything you said. the gray somewhat dark vivid dreams can really mess with you. and its not just in dreams too. it affects my daily life. a life with no true vibrant colors is hell. microdosing is a great option for anyone with depression, osd, and helping in aiding past trauma. you can almost feel your brain getting rewired. and it helps slow down time perception, so you can live a long happy life. ive noticed when taking shrooms i can see brighter colors when im in that feel good mood. not to mention all the holidays around the year feel much more special. mushrooms can bring good spirits in your life after fixing past trauma. this stuff is really something else.

You’re welcome. I’m glad my story has helped you or others who suffer (needlessly) from post cancer depression/anxiety or PTSD, whatever their symptoms are, and I hope others will help themselves and seek help. I don’t condone breaking the law, but I definitely don’t condone suicide. All things being equal, breaking the law is definitely better than a needless death. I was prepared to commit suicide. I had my letters written to my loved ones and my explanation for my actions written down to the police etc. But after taking the shrooms, I quickly ripped up the letters and since then I have only thought about suicide when I’m explaining to others how well the shrooms worked for me and that I don’t think about suicide anymore. No other time does the thought even enter my mind. I know I didn’t take enough of the shrooms, I didn’t hallucinate. I only had brighter lights and I chuckled at a few things, that was all I noticed and apparently all I needed! The very next day I was able to cut back by 50% all my pain medications, anxiety meds and every other medication except for the blood thinners I must take. I don’t think you can name another drug on earth that can do anything like that overnight.

In reply to Popeye79. Hello, thank you for sharing your story. I can relate to a lot of what you have said in terms of psychedelics alleviating depression and I have read countless anecdotal accounts of people finding relief through these medicines. I am sure many others will read this and find comfort through its relatability. Again, thank you for taking the time to share your experience and I hope to hear from you again in the future.
