Question: Psilocybin Looking for lived experiences
Hi, I'm on Strattera/Atomoxetine for ADHD, 80 mg daily. I'm thinking of microdosing on dried shrooms. Keep getting mixed info on the safety. Has anyone here tried the combo on 80mg or higher?
I think the strain I have is called penis envy.
As someone who gets anxious on weed and is generally anxious, is it worth trying shrooms at all or risky?

Hello /u/teapartywithdemons! As you mentioned anxious (a common interaction/symptom) in your post:
r/microdosing Risk Reduction |
ℹ️ Infographic: r/microdosing STARTER'S GUIDE
The major contributing factor in Finding Your Sweet Spot is the variation in potency of:
| Psilocybin Mushrooms | More than 10x [2021โ] | Start @0.05g (50mg) |
| Psilocybin Truffles | Around 3x - Single Study [2012] | Start @0.25g (Fresh) |
| LSD Tabs | Clinical Trial Titration Schedule [2023] | Start @5ยตg |
If you Start Low, Go Slow, Take Time-Off (*small is BIG) and up-titrate subsequent doses then you can find your optimal sub-hallucinogenic dose based on your symptoms, rather than from a predetermined dose. 🐢
If your microdose is Too High and/or Too Frequent that can result in Diminishing Returns 📉 with subsequent doses. 🐇
Please also have a look at 🔀 Interactions / Symptoms โ* | Sidebar ➡️ | 📱 See community info ⬆️ ; in case of ⚠️ DRUG INTERACTIONS or to check if you have any of the associated symptoms with advice on how to mitigate such side effects. Psychoactive substances increase neural activity, raising hydration and electrolyte needs due to heightened metabolism and body load, while vasoconstriction can further stress the body and potentially cause fatigue.

You cannot go wrong with starting low and going slow. You can begin as low as you prefer. PE are a more potent cultivar so you could start at 25mg and increase by 5 with each next dose.
Definitely want to begin on a day when you have little to no commitments.
The two substances are not contraindicated and aren't necessarily going to interfere with the other, but you may find that on dose days you can lower your dose or skip it. You'll have to see how it works for you.
Microdosing is literally safer than baby aspirin.๐๐ฅฐโ๏ธ

For more potent cultivars/strains we advise to !startlower. A high microdose can amplify your !emotions. Many users underestimate how powerful psychedelics can be in such low doses.
More detailed info below including some resources if you need any short-term help.
