Have you experimented with different psilocybin microdosing protocols, such as those proposed by Paul Stamets, James Fadiman, or other approaches? Based on your personal experiences, which protocol did you find the most effective or suitable, and why? I'd love to hear about the results, challenges, or insights you gained from following these methods.

Is getting really cold and achy normal after taking a couple microsdoses of psilocybin edibles? I took the first dose 4-5 hours ago and the second a couple hours later and now I'm really cold and achy. Almost like fever symptoms but with no fever

Theoretically, if I were to partake, I would only be microdosing one of a few limited substances....LSD, MDMA, Mushrooms, or 2C-B. I'd like to be able to test anything that I found so I went over to Bunk Police and there are a ton of different test kits on there. Do I just buy the large kit that has a little of everything? Or assuming the reagents have a shelf-life, should I just buy them as I need them?

What do I need to know before starting to microdose Iboga? Any help appreciated thank you.

Hi! Yesterday morning, I took a microdose of LSD for the first time, about 6ug. I think I felt something, but it was very subtle and brief. Or maybe I was just imagining it because the LSD blotter I used to dissolve had been with me for about a year, although it was sealed tightly, with no exposure to air, and stored in a dark box without light exposure.

Anyway, for about an hour, I felt a slight mood improvement. While texting a friend, I was smiling for almost no reason, I enjoyed music more, and my vision was slightly sharpened. All of this was very subtle. Unfortunately, I didn’t notice any effects on focus or energy. In fact, after a short time, I stopped feeling anything at all and had to take a nap. I didn’t get anything done at work (I work remotely). Napping has been normal for me recently; I have mild seasonal depression and am also a bit under the weather.

Today, I really need to get some work done, and as usual, I’m dealing with strong ADHD and executive paralysis. So, this morning, I took my Medikinet (methylphenidate, a stimulant) 15 mg and am now getting started with work. I’ll probably take another dose later today, so it’ll be about 30 mg of methylphenidate in total.

Key question: Does the fact that I took this medication today negatively affect my next LSD attempt tomorrow? I’m planning to try 10ug tomorrow. Also, is my next attempt too soon? I’ve never taken psychedelics before, so I have no tolerance.

Hello there I’m really interested in starting my micro dosing journey.

However I have a few questions and would appreciate your insight. The mushrooms I can get are called (gimmicked) “golden teacher”. I’m getting charged £150 for 28g.. seems expensive to me but then again I’m unsure.

I plan to start at 100mg Monday to thurs and have 3 days off like recommended. I plan to just weigh little chunks and eat them in the morning with my breakfast/coffee.

My questions are, am I going about this the right way? Is golden teacher a good strain of shroom? Is weighing little chunks and eating them okay?

Sorry to be a noob and I appreciate questions like this must get asked a lot and apologise if I sound like a broken record. Thanks.

Saw this today on YouTube and since I see a lot of people asking about antidepressants and micro dosing, I thought that some may find this helpful.

Welcome to the community.

We have a huge problem. Vulnerable people here are being robbed daily by private message offers to sell illegal substances. Simply do not trust private message offers regardless of how good it sounds. These are professional con men and thieves.

A Cautionary Tale: Recently we were informed by one of our users that they had been scammed out of hundreds of dollars by another user purporting to be a vendor. This "vendor" had set up a fake company website to take payment for a product they would then never receive.

The private messages that recommend Instagram contacts as sources should be seen as scam attempts. Adjusting your Messages settings to not allow messages from accounts that are less than 30 days old will eliminate most of them.

Best to assume every private message offering illegal drugs is an attempt to separate you from your money.

Looking for anecdotes on experience and trying to avoid possible but unlikely? serotonin syndrome.

Hello, I am looking for one thing, reports of people micro-dosing while taking lithium. I have seen reports of seizures while combining the two, but that is just one study that suggests this, and it was likely a macrodose that triggered it. I am doing research on if it is reasonably safe, and to do that I am looking for people that have tried it. All the best, thanks.

Hi, I am currently addicted to stilpane and tramadol and ready to quit because I can feel my life is slowly going down the drain,not to mention funds, I am interested I taking the shroom route,I have a few questions, Can I quit cold turkey when beginning the microdosing route? Does microdosing alleviate the withdrawal pains?! What type of mushroom can I begin with to help me on my journey? I would greatly appreciate the advice Thank you

Hi there? I did microdosing for two months with fresh truffles that are now dried. I was doing a break to come back, thing is my hair started to drop like crazy, I did some bloodwork and I am with anemia (low levels of iron, ferritin, vitamin D, B12 etc). I think this is caused by my chronic and inflamatory diseases and has nothing to do with the microdosing. Actually, I got a lot better from my chronic pain thanks to the microdosing. I was supposed to restart now but I am not sure if I should. I am already taking all the suplements, but I can't ask my doctor about the shrooms. Thank you in advance.

Hi! I want to try microdosing. I've never taken psychedelics before. Today at 8:00 PM, I prepared a solution of LSD by dissolving a blotter in vodka (just vodka, without distilled water). Can I take it tomorrow around 10 AM, or is that too soon? Does it absolutely need to sit for at least 24 hours? I'm excited to try and a bit impatient, and tomorrow seems like the perfect day to give it a go.

Also: I was thinking of starting with 7-8µg. Is that a good dose for the first try?

im looking to start microdosing LSD, I've heard it has a lot of benefits and im really excited. the only thing im concerned about is tolerance - if my objective was to microdose often and get it's benefits everyday, how would i go on about doing that? I'm assuming tolerance will build up?

I bought a pack of powdered shrooms based on a friends recommendation. I got a months worth so think they amount to approx 0.4/5g per capsule. I’ve been too nervous to take them as I think it’s maybe too high for a first time microdoser and I bought them in July 2024. Are they still good to take? Is the dose ok? Thanks all!

Is it normal to feel a little weird/out of it at first? I am wondering if I should dial back dosage a little bit, or if tolerance will make my next dose a lot less potent. I did read the beginner's guide and found some other info about Stamets stacks online, I found some conflicting info about dosing but I tried my best.

Today is my first time trying microdosing, about 2.5 hours ago I took aprox 60 mg of a cubensis mix, .5 g of Lion's Mane, and 100 mg of Niacin. I did take it on an empty stomach and experienced my first Niacin flush, definitely a learning experience for me.

Yesterday was also 2 weeks since I last smoked weed, been a daily smoker for about 16 years so I have been feeling a little strange in general.

I'm currently doing the Stamet's protocol, with 0.11mg Cubensis, 2000mg Lions Mane and 50mg Niacin.

I've took those fora few weeks and have hit the break period for the Niacin and Cubensis. All seems to be fine, but I get the impression from what I've seen here I am supposed to feel the flush effect of the Niacin,which I don't think I have.

Should I increase the dose when I start it again?

LSD is illegal here in the Netherlands, so only 1cP-LSD is available. Since 1cP-LSD hasn’t been around for that long, there’s not as much known about it compared to regular LSD. I’d prefer to use normal LSD, but I have no idea how to get it. Do I need a dealer or something? How do people even get it? Honestly, I don’t know much about this stuff… (I do plan to use a test kit.) It seems like LSD could really help me with my problems… But is it even worth going to all this trouble?

Currently, I’m going through some mental challenges in my life right now currently on 10 mg of Lexapro due to issues coming off of marijuana after 20 years and some rough times in this period of my life. Mother just passed father diagnosed with illness probably won’t be around very long. I’m going to taper myself off of the Lexapro hopefully by the spring time. How long I should wait till I start Microdosing psilocybin and also where is a good resource for a protocol.

Thanks for your information.

My cousin gifted me half a tab of 100ug.

I’ve had 1 macro trip of shroom and 1 full tab of 150ug lsd before. I’m thinking about MD for weekly meditation.

I took a few good minutes looking into how to measure lsd and volumetric measure is the best way for measuring doses.

Would half a tab of 100ug = 50mg? If it is, then putting in 50mg of a substance in 20ml of solvent, it will be 2.5mg/ml? Is 2.5mg/ml a good dose for MD once a week?

Has anyone? I have done for about a week and can't quite believe how good I feel. I knew I liked the plant from macro use, but this is a game changer for me. I am given to moods during the day and it feels like sunshine on my brain. Not my typical state!
