I believe there's numerous threads here on microdosing where people documented their results..I suggest the search engine for what you seek.

I got a concussion the other day and was slowly getting better until yesterday I ate a little mushroom in the morning and another in the afternoon totalling probably .3g. I feel significantly better now!
Had you not even those mushrooms you more than likely would still feel significantly better from the rest. Two days from a concussion will feel significantly better than one day from a concussion.

Placebo.
Placebo effects can seem strong. No one ever wants to admit that they fell under the influence of a placebo effect, though. It is part of the self-deception that gives it the effectiveness we know and love.
Hey, if it works for you, whatever. But I wouldn't go around telling people who may need real medical attention to try it. You might do harm.

I've had somewhere between 10 and 15 concussions before I turned 18
I microsecond for over a month straight
When I got a CT scan, angiogram, and MRI recently they could not find any evidence of brain trauma.
Not conclusive for sure so who knows

I would love to believe this. It just sounds outlandish and unbelievable. 10-15 concussions? You would be lucky to be alive (if they were of any seriousness), let alone taking drugs.
If you are lying, you ought to be ashamed of yourself, you aren't doing anyone, or our drugs, a service.
I think it is more likely to be an exaggeration.

I don't see any benefit in lying here.
The reason I say between 10 and 15 is because I know it's at least 10 but I honestly can't remember them all.
It's sad when my high school friend says "Hey remember that time?" And I say "no'

Well, to have a better example to go from there would have to be a control, as well as more participants. For example, say you had the tests done before/after the treatment, and say 100 other people in similar situations did too.
Or, those hundred people are split into two groups, half take small doses of mushrooms, half don't, then progress would be measured for statistically significant differences.
It is possible, you must admit, that your healing wasn't caused by the mushrooms. If you were so young, it could very well have just been your body's own work. If you were, say, in your 80's, it would be much less likely that would be the case.

I feel significantly better now! If I were to eat .2g twice a day, persay, I wouldn't feel high at all but would constantly be repairing my brain, in theory. Are there any downsides? Thoughts? Research?
The book I am currently reading about drugs and neurotransmitters claims that SSRI's increase neurogenesis in the hippocampus, and that this might be the main reason why it helps against depression. Apparently depressed people have abnormally low amounts of neurogenesis in the hippocampus. Psilocybin works on serotonin receptors, so it seems likely that if SSRI's stimulate neurogenesis in the hippocampus, micro-dosages of psilocybin might as well. But why use micro-dosages of psilocybin rather than SSRI's if you want to achieve this effect? The article you linked to claims that psilocybin increases interregional brain communication, which is somewhat different from neurogenesis. I think psilocybin is most useful to increase neuronal interconnectivity and synesthesia, rather than to increase neurogensis. But of course I might be wrong. For all I know, psilocybin might be superior to SSRI's also for increasing neurogenesis.

Cannabis generates new brain cells, eating an active dose such as cooked into milk would be a great idea everyday. cannabis is proven very useful for head trauma, I imagine psilo is good for the noggin too though.

You can google it, cannabinoids such as CBD and whatnot are proven to generate new brain cells. Its common knowledge amongst the stoner community too.

even if it does nothing, it is a comfort to taste what you love, and to get a glimmering of it's effects. also an affirmation of your identity to some degree.

I wouldn't trust the stoner community too much, just like I don't trust politicians spreading their anti-drug propaganda too much. Marijuana has both positive and negative sides. Used in moderation I am sure the positive effects outweigh the negative effects, but used in excess I am pretty sure the negative effects outweigh the positive effects. And that is the case for lots of drugs.
