So I've been having mushrooms everyday for about a week...

I've been having mushrooms everyday for about a week and I can say I dont enjoy them as I did at the start of this week. The first 2 days were good, as I was feeling euphoric and ready to explore.
After the 2 days the experience wasnt so fun actually it started to become really boring and today it was the worst. I actually am not feeling that great.
Im putting it down to tolerance. I would like to hear from others who have done the same as me their thoughts and experiences on this.

I suspect a lot of people are wondering if this is a joke or rolling their eyes and wanting to make extremely sarcastic replies, but I'll just cut to the chase.
OF COURSE it's tolerance. Psilocybin, like other psychedelics, develops tolerance rapidly. You can't do it several days in a row and expect it to maintain the same effects. Fortunately, tolerance also declines rapidly, so within a week of abstaining you will likely be getting the same effects as you did to begin with.
But really, trying to use mushrooms like that is not a good idea.

I love a microdose every now and then, but I would agree that daily dosing is not good. Tripping is fatiguing. It's an ordeal. I don't think anyone can keep it up every day, or every other day, or three days.. before long you'd just feel shitty and you'd get sick of it. Every time someone starts a thread about daily dosing they stop posting. That's because they dropped it and had nothing to report.

Might wanna do a little research before you go off playing with powerful drugs but to all your own 
Psilocybin takes at minimum 2 weeks for you to be back to complete baseline after any intake of it.. Maybe you should wait 2 weeks before you try again and up your dose if you're not getting what you want out of them. And only do it once, it's very easy for one single dose to change your life forever and maybe even scare you away or make you want to set out on a break of not using them for months or years at a time. But never take them any closer than once every 2 weeks unless you're prepared for tolerance and for the trips to lose most of their meaning

Dude, the longer you wait the better the trip. You simply can't have mind-blowing, awesome spiritual trips every day. 2 weeks minimum if you want to get the best out of the experience. A few months is even better.
Pyschedelics are not a very good choice for everyday abuse/escapism, over-use can have serious psychological effects including psychosis, delusional thinking and HPPD. Just smoke some weed if you feel the need to get high every day, and save your mushrooms for a monthly heroic dose. You'll learn a lot more when you trip and have more time to integrate the lessons into your daily life if you space out your trips.

I've done 4-AcO-DMT every day with a low-dose MAOI for a month and was fine. OP is experiencing shitty tolerance.
I strongly believe daily low-doses or moderate doses every 3 days is a wonderful regiment for mental health.

I have noticed this as well. I take about 2 low doses a week for a while now. Its better to use it once a week max. Maybe even once every two weeks

I tried low doses and thats what I felt. The euphoria and experience went down gradually and I was taking level 1 or sub level 1 dosages.
day 1 - 5 caps day 2 - 5 caps spread out over a few hours (meh wasnt that good) day 3 - 6 caps, meh day 4 - 6 caps, meh day6 - 8 caps, Clearly intoxicated but nowhere near the awesomeness I first experienced. No euphoria, just a drunk feeling

Yes guys I have learned the first hand way that you gotta space it out...I am very goat-like in the sense that I am stubborn to prefer my experience over the advice of people. Obviously to an extent though because Id listen to a shroomer teach me how to TEK

Taking mushrooms too often (like you have just learned, and hopefully learned from) will cause them to lose the "magic" ... twice I've taken shrooms 3 times in one week, and it really teaches you to respect the fungus... it's like the mushrooms punish you for not respecting them...and I know how lame that sounds (a lot of experiences people have with shrooms sound unbelievable and dumb...but you know there is validity behind each story)that is the only way I can describe what eating shrooms too often is like.

If you trip everyday it loses the magic of it
Most I have ever done was tripping a week straight on lsd with some Molly here and there.... By the end we were eatin 10 strips.. You gotta give your brain time to recharge

You will find very few so stupid as to have done mushrooms every day for a week. Now you know why.

I have tripped 3-4 days per week quite a few times, but it's not microdosing, it's full on tripping, and that takes a lot of mushrooms after the first few days. Tolerance peaks at about 4x the normal dosage. You have to have a REALLY good reason to want to do this IME.

The point of microdosing is using psilocybin for its antidepressant, mood stabilizing and creativity boosting effects in a dose low enough to avoid the mindfuck and hallucinations. At that point, it more medicinal than entheogenic. There's nothing wrong with microdosing everyday if you have depression, it's the trying to go for a balls to the wall full on trip daily that will have ill effects over time.

^ This.
It also provide euphoria and general feel good attitude along with the vivid HD vision.
After so many days the euphoria and HD vision started to lessen but the intoxication seemed to increased (as I upped the dose to combat tolerance.)
It lead me to believe microdosing daily doesn't work medicinally with shrooms. You should have about a 3/4 + days in between microdosing.
I think its something to do with the synapses of the brain and certain hormones like serotonin being depleted. That's what someone told me when we did MDMA together. "you cant take it more than once per 2 weeks minimum".

Serotonin isn't a hormone, but it's just tolerance that gets you - the brain changes its set points for neurotransmitters (which serotonin is and which psilocin is a partial agonist for, which means it docks in place of serotonin on the synapses) which leaves you feeling flat for a few days after you stop dosing heavy. It's nothing that hard to get through and it's harmless IME, compared to the benefits of tripping.
But the longer you try to keep doing it the more the "hangover" at the end.
Microdosing doesn't much work because it builds tolerance just the same as any other dose, and you have to keep increasing it over time for the same effect, and eventually you're no longer microdosing. 
Nobody ever seems to keep it up for long at any rate.

Man....I love mushrooms too but everything good usually needs to be done in moderation. Yes you build a tolerance IME. I used to do it every weekend for a few months and found that I was building a tolerance. They are still doing research on mushrooms....I don't think anybody has a reason to believe they are bad for you, but I can't imagine doing them every day is good for you. The serotonin levels in your brain are probably very low and you are going to feel like shit for a few days. Just speculating.

Did shrooms once every weekend for one month and only the first trip was nice, tested every 2 weeks, 3 weeks, and 4 weeks, since then, i have been tripping once every 3 weeks or 21 days. I found this is the sweet spot for me to get rid of the tolerance.

I can trip once a week fine for mushrooms with no tolerance increase. Although I have been tripping once every 2 weeks recently.

Unless you have compelling reasons to trip often and hard, that will generally be your experience.
But microdosing always felt like something was simply...wrong...to me.
