Learning about yourself by microdosing
    #23407624 - 07/03/16 04:10 PM (7 years, 6 months ago)

So as of late Ive been microdosing .5 grams of shrooms every 4 days. Each time i dose I get better eyesight and a great wavy body effect (if that makes any sense) but my mood doesnt always change for the better. this is what i find great about microdosing. Im an anxious person and I guess the reason why ive started using psychedelics is because they enable you to learn about yourself. I want to cure my anxiety, gain more confidence and be more productive in life. so now when im microdosing, my anxiety can sometimes worsen, but also the fact that im on mushrooms enables me to think clearly and calm myself down and in turn change my mood. the mushrooms literally force me to learn how to handle my emotions and change my way of thinking. anyway id love to hear anyone elses experiences with microdosing - either on mushrooms/lsd/your psychedelic of choice. also this is my first post on the forums, so hello everyone :laugh:

Edit: I also think its pretty crazy that .5 grams of mushrooms can have this profound of an effect. It could be the fact that im rather small, i only weigh 110 pounds and im pretty short. I also smoke cannabis every morning even when i take my microdose so this could also have an effect.

Sometimes it's the small doses with the largest effect.  Maybe because imagination is more powerful than the drug, maybe not.

I can agree with you on that one. I've learned a lot from smaller doses, even sometimes more than harder trips. I think this is because its difficult to take back what you've learned from earth shattering trips - at least for me.

Microdosing is sub-threshold dosing. I think with cubes that works out at less than 0.2g doses.

0.5g is a low dose, not a microdose. Not complaining, just so you know. I have definitely still experienced some tangible effects from microdosing both lsd and shrooms, fwiw.

I am very interested in doing this soon.  Does the .5 gram cause any perception change.  I guess I will have to experiment on dosage size.  That is intriguing about how you learn your own emotions, through time it should clear your anxiety.  Good luck and keep us posted.

.5 gram doesnt give me any crazy visuals or anything, but the colors seem more vibrant and everything is sharper and more detailed. I tried .2 grams and .4 grams. I didnt notice any effects on .2 but a slight boost in mood on .4

I really dont notice an effect, mentally or physically on .2g :/

Yep, since a microdose is sub-threshold by definition, you shouldn't be able to feel any trippy effects from it technically.

It's really just semantics, but a microdose is supposed to have an almost nootropic effect like the racetams etc. If you check out some James Fadiman you can find out more info on it.

If low dosing is working for you, go for it, it's just a different thing and I'd expect you'd be much more quick to notice tolerance issues and possibly experience mindfuck.

Anyway, you better figure out what's on that disk, cause we're being framed. It's in that place where I put that thing that time.

Microdose LSD is far more beneficial and phenomenal than microdosing Psilocybin, this is just my opinion. But yes, you can expand your consciousness and elevate your mindstate with just a small amount, dissolving some of those perceptions. :smile: Microdose LSD is my 2nd favorite drug, right behind THC.

thanks for the info, Ill have to look into this more. Also my regimen for taking my shrooms is every 4 days. Not sure what mindfuck means in terms of psychedelics, but I'm curious to know.

I am interested in trying to microdose mescaline. The short duration of psilocybin and other worldly confusing nature makes it seem like would be inferior in comparison to mescaline, which is long lasting, clear headed, grounding and mood lifting.

After I grew my stash about 3 years ago, I packed a bunch of gel caps with .25g each. That's what I've been feeding off of. They're getting weaker now, but that's another topic...

A lot of times when I microdose, I'll open a pill and pour half into empty gel because I'm not sure if I want the whole quarter gram. .25g causes enough of an effect to make it so I'm out of business. It's a fragile state of mind. I wouldn't want to have to deal with a crisis on a quarter gram. I can feel .1 g. It's mild and it doesn't last long, but I know that feeling when I feel it. It's like smelling weed in public - even if it's just a tiny whiff, you know it.

I microdose because I like how it puts a glow on an experience. I did it a couple times in the past Christmas season and it was great. Hanging out with the wife and kids, fireplace going, watching tv, eating and drinking .. with a micro/low dose doing it's magic. It really made things feel special.

I've heard of people cutting their tabs into 8 smaller tabs and taking one of the slivers.

No problem. I don't know how to explain mindfuck in general with regard to psychs, the closest I can term it is psychedelic confusion, getting wrapped up in elements of something and finding it difficult to process the greater whole.

I was taking small doses instead of microdoses at one point and found that I ended up feeling generally emotionally drained and kinda strung out.

Threshold is 20ug, so you're probably looking at around 10-15ug. Mine work out around 12ug fwiw.

I've experienced much of what you are saying. I think that I notice things like anxiety more because psychedelics, in large or micro doses, will not let me hide from things or suppress feelings. I am forced to feel them and deal with them.

As you mentioned when a problem arises the solution can seem much more clear to me than it would on a normal day. Micro dosing is an amazing tool for breaking bad daily habits.

The two aforementioned benefits make for a powerfully effective combination.
