Micro-Dosing going wonderfully! 1

Hey all. I just read many of the micro-dosing threads on here and wanted to contribute my experience, which may echo some of yours.
I have been nibbling on .2g to .4g P.cubensis each day. Once in the morning, once about 5-6 hours later. I probably would nibble three times per day, but I like to rest and sleep at a reasonable time, haha.
For me, the micro-dosing has offered this:
~ Increased energy, alertness and focus. Coming from someone who often is too lazy to cook dinner, who procrastinates everything, and who generally only does the minimum effort required, this has been such a blessing. I have felt enough energy to go for regular walks, keep my house clean, cook myself healthy meals, and get things done in the day without it feeling like a chore. I have caught up on everything at work without feeling manic or speedy or pumped. Just the right amount of sustainable, clean feeling energy.
~ Relaxed, at-ease mood. Historically I have been a bit socially anxious. I would pretty much just go to the store and come home, that's it. I don't really enjoy interacting with strangers or acquaintances, and sometimes even friends. I would say no to things I was invited to, just to sit at home. In the time I've been micro-dosing, I have very much enjoyed my interactions with other people. I'm more talkative on the phone, more confident to chat with people in the store, and I happily say yes to invitations from friends. Today, I dropped by a friends house unannounced and we sat on the deck laughing and catching up. I honestly don't remember the last time I did that - or the last time I just relaxed with others enough to laugh like that. I actually heard my REAL laugh again. I feel genuinely happy. It has been really, really nice.
~ Stable, positive, and centered. I do not feel altered at all. Instead I feel grounded, and like my mood is at a natural, content baseline. I feel centered. In the past week I have had to think about some hard things and deal with a few issues that could have made me feel angry or upset, but instead I feel really ready to deal with them calmly and talk them through from a centered place.
~ Making healthier choices, effortlessly. I have had a life-long, ongoing struggle with eating my feelings, eating out of boredom, eating more than I need to, and not eating the right things. In this short time of micro-dosing, It has been absolutely effortless for me to make healthier food choices. I have not craved any junk food at all, no alcohol. I even *tried* to have a cider one night and didn't have any desire to finish it. I tried to eat ice-cream this afternoon and my body said "no, thank you." It is easy. I have been drinking more water, walking every day (when I historically barely leave the house), and when I *do* feel hungry, I crave fruits, veggies, salad, and home cooked whole foods. Tonight I enthusiastically made myself a spinach & quinoa salad, and it was glorious! It felt so good in my body. Also, the frequency that I eat has gone down and the amount I eat has gone down. I am excited to see if this changes my body weight over time The desire to make healthier choices is a positive but unexpected effect, for me.
~ Getting into my artistic flow easier, for longer I am an artisan/craftsperson, but in the last little while I have been super uninspired and pretty much just making the custom orders that I have to make, as I have to make them. I haven't been 'in the flow' artistically. Since beginning the micro-dosing, I have been spending on average 4-6+ hours each day in my studio. I have been creating all kinds of things that make me happy and have been really focused while I create, which produces a more quality work. I have made more art in the past week than I have in the past three months, and I am proud of all of it and feel it is of quality.
*~*~*
I'm sure there is more to report. Mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually I feel better than I have in... a very very long time. It feels like I am in the wholeness of "me" again, and that all else has fallen away.
I intend to continue this journey. My plan is to micro-dose twice daily for two full weeks, then move to every other day. Then move to twice weekly, once weekly. I will play with it and test until I find the sweet spot where the positive effects last between doses.
It doesn't feel like a euphoria or anything like that - it feels more like the fog of depression, anxiety, stress, etc has lifted from my life and that I remain in balance. Life feels effortless and happy.
I hope this post was helpful or useful for someone. I am happy to answer any questions, and come report back about how it is going as things progress/time passes.
Thanks for letting me share this info/experience - it feels way too good not to <3

That sounds like your getting a lot of positive out of microdosing! I've never given microdosing a shot but I do believe doing it right can be very beneficial to some people! You are living proof of that!

Hi, Goddess! Could you update on your experience? How long were you able to microdose daily with consistent effects?

Hi, I've just become really interested in this, if you are still around can you update a few years on? Are you still doing it, were the results lasting?
