I'm starting to think orgasmatron is just a puppet-troll account.
Please do mention any type of medication that doesn't "lift" depression temporarily but heals it completely. If anything, prescription medication seems to be about the worst thing people depression are given. Although I don't have any type of experience on the subject, one very commonly prescribed medications (SSRI's) are said to make the conditions worse for the majority of the people who tried them. I have yet to meet someone both IRL or on the net that says he/she/loved one/family member is doing better with SSRI's when compared to shrooms even.

Most of the time, depression is a symptom of some past trauma.
Psychedelics are indispensable when combined with therapy. Saskatchewan had many psychiatric trials in the mid 20th century with astounding results in prisons, institutions and for treatment of alcoholism. Then of course made illegal...
Granted there can be neurotransmitter imbalances driving the problems.

Yeah in my experience, most of the people I know who have taken anti-depressants are worse after taking the medications. I have never heard a success story with anti-depressants - its not medicine. Mushrooms at low doses have much more potential for alleviating symptoms, as well as allowing the person to find the root cause of the depression. The root of the depression is not mentioned a lot of the time, the anti-depressants only mask symptoms and exacerbate the problems instead of treating the root of the depression.

I agree, most of the time the depression stems from a childhood ordeal. I have had many close family members suffer with depression, some of them very severe. The trials you speak of have happened many times in different places with great success, and eventually are shut down - the real crime is found with the fuckers that shut them down. The neurotransmitter imbalance is a good point as well, sometimes the depression goes deep, although this is a very small percentage of people that call themselves depressed.
Big pharma is pure greed, aka evil. If the prescription drugs they sold allowed you to discover the root of your depression, overcome the sadness and pain, then they wouldn't have you coming back to refill your script now would they?

For me it's all time and place, I can have lvl 8 trip off 2g in a good place. On the other end I've eaten 8th's and it was weak because of where I was our the people I was around.
Letting go mentally plays a big factor for personally.
Everybody's body chemistry and mental state is different and that will largely affect how you "trip"
I think microdosing could work well for anyone of the time and place are right.

lol ive tripped around family and others that had no idea i was tripping SO many times now that i dont even care. granted my mother used to ALWAYS bring me a bowl of fruits on the days id be tripping out.. so i have a good feeling a majority of them DID know haha. just never said anything i suppose.
regardless, bar police officers or law enforcement of any kind, and im completely comfortable being off my rocker in front of or with others who arent on my level. i will admit it CAN send a trip sideways if someone starts fucking with you though..

Hi,
When I say that I didn't feel anything different on them, I mean anything. I didn't even feel a little bit more positive, nothing changed at all. I was hoping for at least something.
I think I'm just going to try and grow them again and eat them fresh next time.
Just out of interest, what is the best way of drying them in future?

Nobody "has" to eat an eigth lol 
I at a quarter once, just to see what was up....once 
I do.. A gram does almost nothing for me. An eighth is a decent trip, but quite underwhelming. I don't trip often either, that is just my natural tolerance.
I don't mean to go off topic from the OP but I feel the same as the above quote. My gf can trip her face off on 3.5g but I don't go anywhere near as far as her on the same dose from the same batch of home grown mushies. I never take less than 4g dried anymore...usually it is more than that. I guess I'm more of a mushroom "hardhead" than her for whatever reason.
Then again, I think she just might be more sensitive than the average psychedelic enthusiast...oh well who knows, I'm just glad I have someone who loves to trip as much as I do!

Food dehydrator is best but an oven will do good as well in a pinch. With the oven, use the lowest heat setting, leave the door slightly open and if your oven isn't fan assisted, you should point a fan toward it. Dehydrators are superior of course, not needing to be babysitted is great IMO, plus the temps could be set more accurately. Most ovens still have a relatively high lowest setting so you kinda need to be careful not to leave them in there too long.
The actives shouldn't be effected by the temps, even if you dry them for longer than needed but the shrooms do turn black. I imagine over-cooked shrooms would taste even more horrible than normal 
Once dried, best way to store them would be a vacuum sealed bag. Ziplocks work but they still leak air and humidity so you can't leave them in there for a long time. If you are using capsules for ingestion, you could just cap them straight after drying. A tightly packed capsule should preserve the actives sufficiently, even over long periods of time.

some people think im crazy for enjoying 5-7 grams on no tolerance. im not crazy, thats just where my body injests enough psilocibin for the trip that i find most enjoyable. random unplanned day is best for me as well. just let go and have an adventure >;)

Hey that's a good idea. I already bailed on work today, might as well eat some of my shroom chocolates.

Hi,
Sorry for the delay in replying.
Maybe I'm not weighing them properly. I tried eating 1g of fresh mushrooms and still felt nothing the other day. I weighed the bit of mushroom on my weighing scale and it was about a thumb nail of mushroom.
Maybe there is a problem with my scales. Can you tell me what a gramme of mushrooms is in terms of size?
Also, excuse my ignorance but what exactly is an eighth?

1 gram fresh is like nothing. I personally would eat 35-60 grams fresh. You should be eating at least 20 fresh to have a good experience.
If dry you should eat at least 2 grams. I would do 3.5-6 grams dry myself.

1g fresh will dry down to less than .1g dry. Of course you felt nothing, that's an extremely low micro dose. Do what pasty said, eat lots more.

My first experience with freshies wasn't too bad I ate 27 grams though......I do know that I like the taste of them wet better than when they're dehydrated..... I ended up at some place with a rug like the carpet from fear and loating in las vegas.....set there watching the pattern stretch and breath for a good 30 minutes

eighth as in eighth of an ounce.

I always fast for at least 12 hours prior, mostly I will go 16. I only trip at night after sundown, and I always go alone. 4 or 5 grams send me spiraling randomly around the galaxy.
Oh, and I wait a minimum of 4 weeks between trips. My kids eat more of my mushies than I do.
