(OP) User ID: 79286318 United States 09/30/2022 04:36 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Over labor day weekend I was with the family and started to have pretty severe symptoms of a heart attack: chest pain, sweating, irregular and fast heart beat, legs felt really heavy. Quoting: Hairy man checked in to the ER. Many tests later diagnosed with a panic attack. Much better than a heart attack, but still not good. Tuesday following I go to my regular doctor. She asks me if i want anxiety meds to take daily, or some that i can take when I'm feeling anxious. I decline as I was feeling good and did not want big pharma involved. Fast forward 2 weeks. Going to pick up oldest at high school. Wreck way ahead of me that I did not know about or see. Traffic backed way up. Try another route same story. Try a third route same story. Have another panic attack but keep it under control. Decide I can't live like this. Going to call doc and get meds. Remember that my friend microdoses mushrooms. Call him instead. He gave me some to try. Next morning (sunday) I take one. Within 1.5 hours feel like the world has been lifted off my shoulders. No intoxication, or tripping. Barely feel a body buzz maybe. Emotions fully intact. Kids fighting, I get annoyed, but do not feel the world closing in on me. Been doing it daily since. The results are phenomenal. Do you drink a lot? If you drink heavily regularly, you may be depleting your GABA levels which help regulate emotions and body functions that would prevent you normally from having panic attacks. I definitely need to slow down on booze. That's another reason for microdosing. Also going to therapy that started yesterday. I told my therapist this same story, and she told me I made the correct decision in calling my friend as opposed to my doc. Told me sedatives make anxiety worse because now you are dealing with a chemical addiction. Hairy man |

I’m like your friend, I try to tell any in my circles who will listen to try this. For me, I create a tea, freeze the tea into small ice cubes, and then use a couple of the ice cubes with a, “normal tea” at night. I also pick my own mushrooms and have a couple year supply at this moment. By chance, what mushroom are you micordosing? Amanita muscaria (Mario looking mushroom is a good one, but has to be prepared right). Thanks for sharing and good luck! |

Yes meditation is good. Ever try meditating while taking a large amount of psychedelics? That can also be a very amazing experience (not one to take lightly though). Do you practice lucid dreaming or astral projection? If so, microdosing helps one to remember dreams and have vivid dreams. We can learn from a large variety of sources and methods. There absolutely no reason to limit ourselves to only one or a few. Good luck |

User ID: 72884301 United States 09/30/2022 05:08 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Not sure what kind. Quoting: Hairy man As for the amount, it is the size of an average multivitamin. It looks exactly like milk thistle supplement. Not sure What the amount equals in weight, but small. If I was you, I would talk to friends who might be into this kind of thing. Even if they just smoke weed, they probably know where to get mushrooms. So, you have been partaking in smoking some heavy-duty Mary Jane, every once in a while. And all the sudden, especially as of lately, you start having panic attacks. So now you are micro dosing mushrooms, and everything seems fine. In the Next few months, you will start telling us how a stiff alcohol drink is necessary every night and helps you sleep better. Then in 6 months you will claim the rainbow-colored opioids are the best, especially the ones laced with fentanyl. I think shrooms are in a different class. You're lumping all together. 100% accurate. People that lump psychadelics in with other street drugs are just showing their ignorance. There's a ton of research out there that show amazing efficacy for treating non-treatable PTSD and depression. There was one study by Johns Hopkins that studied the efficacy of treating PTSD-riddled vets with MDMA and were so shocked by the results that they petitioned to skip straight to Stage 3 FDA trials. There's also a great documentary on Netflix about it called "How to Change your Mind". [link to www.leafly.com (secure)] Word of advice for OP who is enjoying microdosing...don't do it non-stop or you will build a tolerance and will see diminishing returns. Psychs cannot be taken long term without developing tolerance. Buck Tardwater |

A single spore syringe can last decades if used properly by only squeezing the sides of the syringe lightly onto an agar plate to get a single drop. With that drop, thousands of plates can be made to isolate a single hardy rhizomorphic strain.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 84286538 United States 09/30/2022 05:18 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Fun fact: psychedelic mushrooms grow everywhere in abundance. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78105533 Fun fact #2: so do deathly poisonous ones. Get a really good ID book. Or grow your own. They are found off trails and in parks because people take them outdoors and inadvertently spread the spores. Fun Fact #3: psilocybin is the EASIEST mushroom type to cultivate. Most mushrooms are generally very very difficult to grow your own. So it's the perfect starter mushroom of any kind. Don't eat anything unless you are 200000% sure what it is. And only take a little art first. where do you find spores to grow? 2nd what about tolerance seems like micro dosing won't work. How do you have tolerance on large doses but none on micro dosing? Go online and do a serach they are everywhere |

User ID: 84264855 Canada 09/30/2022 05:22 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I've noticed a lot of people are feeling more anxious lately. I think it's related to the fluctuating Schumann resonance and/or increased solar flares. Quoting: Quantum Joker Plus the state of the world for the past 2 years has increased anxiety in general. Lots of reasons why people might have panic attacks. Microdosing seems to be a very effective and safe way of living with mental health concerns. Or improving neurological functioning if there are no mental health concerns. You start out with a miniscule amount in water and gradually add more up to a top level. You don't want to get high. You want to feel like you do on a great day where everything is going your way. Additionally, psychadelic psychotherapy is a burgeoning field. More and more cities are approving studies to look at mdma mushrooms and other entheogens which can assist those with mental health issues, along with more traditional therapies. no. vaccines. |
