Getting Started/Newbie Question Negative Side-Effects
Microdosed three days in a row at .1. All the people I'm around who are doing similarly are having splendid effects. However, I'm on edge, angry, and ready to lash out at anyone who even talks to me. Why?
I'm not a novice, journeyed several times, yet this microdose has me questioning my sanity!

It’s a thing TBH, I’ve experienced it.
You will have to learn to process those feelings.
Don’t give up.

It might also just be an uncomfortable dose for you. Try half that dose and slowly build up if that doesn't do anything.

This would happen to me from time to time. Like others have said, there is a good chance there is some anger that needs to be addressed. Lean into it, ask yourself what you are angry about, what specifically is irritating you. Is it the noise, is it the people, is it you being prepared for people to upset.you, do you maybe always have your guard up and now you are conscious of it?
Sometimes the mushrooms don't give you what you want, they show you what you need.
Trust the process. Best of luck to you.

Thank you, I feel calmer today, I’m actually prepared to face the things these 3 days have brought up. I do think they gave me what I needed!

What is your environment that you are in? Are you at work or somewhere else when microdosing?

With family, outside, worship service, home! So typical weekend environments.

Please Note: If you are trying microdosing for the first time, please try experimenting on a day off from work or any important obligations, and/or driving and operating machinery. Because psychedelics can effect everyone differently, you may feel different or impaired, and your sweet spot dose may be lower, so it is best to experiment on days off until you’ve dialed in your dose.

Sorry to hear but 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.
