Eating mushrooms every day? How mushrooms effect my life.

Every time ive taken mushrooms in the past, its had an amazing effect on me. Yet its hard for me to get through each trip.
The things i think about are ;
1. My financial situation, how i need to be more cautious with my money. 2. How i need to spend more time with family as much as possible. 3. How i need to help certain people, and theyre struggles become more evident. 4. How i need to show my wife more love, and to be more nice. 5. How i need to excel at work, and go above and beyond, and to start taking it upon myself to do certain things i know i can do but just dont. 6. How i need to clean my house and organize it, and just keep better care of my things, and life in general.
I guess it just opens my eyes to a harsh reality. Every time i end up an emotional wreck crying like a big baby.
Yet after i come down i feel amazing, like its the start of a new beginning.
BUT....for the weeks following i see all of those things mentioned improve drastically.
So i was wondering if a mild dose like .5-1g was taken every day aprroximately 5 hours before i go to sleep, how would that effect me.
Could it improve my quality of life in the way that i think it could?

It may help at first but it will never be permanent Ram Dass faced that same problem in his book/guide " Remember, Be Here Now "
I asked the same question you are now and then I read that book and learned the solution  I got a copy online for $2.50, you should definitely order a copy, Its what you're looking for

I have tried microdosing and its def a possible thing to do every other day. But I am not sure it is the best idea to be doing daily as tolerance builds. also, (at least for me) shrooms keep me up quite a bit. I have fallen asleep on shrooms many times but that was with the assistance of beer and weed
In my microdosing experiments, doses of 4-aco dmt, det and met all kept me up at night sometimes. Even in the 2-3mg range, the effects are still stimulanty
I would say if you are serious, look into microdosing. If I ever do a serious experiment, I will post a thread with my results. in my limited experience, the effect are reminescent of ritalin

I guess this is not going to work out really well, but it's just a guess. If you try it, the first thing you need to do is establish a dose that doesn't make you a wreck. Why do you think that dosing during the night would be better? I'd be interested to hear how this goes.

In the afternoon so it has no effects on my daily routines/work/driving. But i plan on trying .5g for a couple of days and see how that effects me. And maybe go up to a gram.
I dont want debilitating effects just a more open perception of reality and more aware of my inner values that get unknowingly pushed away day to day.

The smallest dose ive ever taken was 3.5 grams and my first trip was ignorantly 7grams at a young age and was VERY difficult experience. So i want to start at a very low dose so i dont necessarily trip but just use as a self healing aid.

While it's certainly possible for psychedelics to assist you in making positive life changes, they simy ar e not going to do the work for you. Taking mushrooms every day isn't the solution here. The solution is to actively work to make the changes that you feel you need to make while you're under the influence of psychedelics. Making lifestyle changes and changing your habits is difficult and there are no quick and easy shortcuts.

I agree and i only want to use it as a tool in my process.
Similar to an athlete taking protein vs steroids. I want mushrooms to be a helping hand in the process not the steroid to do it all for me.
As mentioned in post the positive life changes continue for a few weeks only to be subconciously pushed to the back of my mind.

You'd build a tolerance so quick it wouldn't be worth it and it sounds like your trips are not good so why would you even want that everyday.

IMO, you just have to integrate the trip into your life. You have to correct yourself if you keep making the same mistakes over and over.
Improving your self is a ton of work, but it leads to a much happier life.

IMO, tripping isn't always about having fun trips. Issues similar to OPs always come up in my trips as well. Tripping can lead to a better lifestyle, and an overall happier life. My best trips were trips were I realized I had to deal with shit.

Mindfulness in Plain English is an excellent book which the author has made available online for free. I highly recommend it. The author wrote it specifically to be as accessible and practical as possible. In it, the author keeps the supernatural/spiritual parts to a minimum. I think this is very useful because, whether you're a materialist like myself who doesn't buy into the supernatural, or if the supernatural/spiritual add-ons are something you want to pursue, it's great to get a clear and concise explanation of meditation when you're starting out. Meditation is a great way to increase your overall sense of calm, peace, and well-being, and that book explains how to get started very well.
