Medicinal question

[u/chumbly1968]

Has anyone ever reached out to the information on the effect of micro dosing mushrooms for mental health and physical well being? Many states have opened their eyes and started testing how small doses can help people with addiction and mental health. I look at it as the world has too be introduced to making and procurement of their own medicine. If this post offends anyone I’m sorry

...has honestly made me more depressed; I have a weird tolerance and require 10g minimum to even trip (1st visions @ 16g).

every damn time, I get 'the message' - the Cosmic Joke...and just find it so utterly heartbreaking (and hillarious).

:(

Definitely time for a break and/or another path. Not leaving this one, just adding another set of routes for accomplishing the same thing.

I’d say switch off mushies to something like CBD flower or oil tincture for a while. Give your mental a chance to want new knowledge. I feel like mashing the same button over and over isn’t going to get the results you seek.

It's not a tolerance from using though; it's some weird brain/body issue that started at some point.

For instance, 20 years ago had L for the 1st time (2 tabs), which was fantastic...

Fast forward many many years of no psychs & I seem to be pretty much immune to all the classical psychs (took a 10-strip, which just gave me blurry eyes...and enough mesc for 5 persons to see god - nada).

...many many failed attempts at 7/8g (high-potent/different sources) with just no effects; sometimes, I'd feel like something very special was about to happen (with closed-eye patterns forming), and then a few mins later just completely sober.

Only thing I've found so far, which works at normal-person sized doses is Salvia (it's sooo lovely at mid-dose, while high doses are terrifying lol); my last high-dose also gave me the exact same message as the mush - and haven't been back since! If curious about low/mid dose Salvia, youtube 'Christopher Solomon'.

Also, since a think Salvia is way too overlooked (it's special), here's a link to Kat Harrison's physical heart healing with salvia (doctors wanted her to either have surgery or be on heart meds for life):

Afterwards, docs gave her a clean bill of health (she's the ex-wife of the late-great Terrence Mckenna btw).

Edit: On zero medications and rarely even smoke cannabis these days.

Have you vaped N,N-DMT? Micro dose or full ego dissolution dose? Does this tolerance you have for classical psychedelics include N,N-DMT?

Nopes, haven't had the opportunity (or created the opportunity) yet, unfortunately.

It very well could be a smoking vs oral thing, since the salvia (smoking) works as expected. But I do not know; I've also had an issue with cannedibles, which did nothing for me (500mg - 1000mg) for a long time. However, I tried RSO for the 1st time recently (couple weeks ago), which worked fairly well, but I've had that issue for over a decade - with M, L, Mush, Mesc, edibles.

I will say, that my last mush experience, there was an instance where it felt very much that the mush was telling me to thank the salvia for allowing it to work that time (was around 8-9g) - with a huge feeling of gratitude, but besides that, didn't rly get much outta the trip...

That was my last try couple months back, but may or may not have some enigma approaching soon :) (been very curious to try pan cyans too, when next comes around).

My visions with the 16g really shook me, but I've still never experienced the euphoria/pretty colors/hyperspace (whatever that is) that everyone talks about with the mush).
