About to microdose (shrooms) for the first time

What should I know?
I've finally gotten some mushrooms. Have 2gs in total. Do I shred up a mushroom in a coffee grinder and put the dust into a capsule? And I should weigh it on a scale as well, correct? Also what gram amount should I take from first go?

.2g
I just rip a piece off, weigh it and chew very very well.
Sometimes I let it sit in between my gum and cheek to absorb there a while.
Leave a couple days without microdosing in between "on" days to normalize.
An alternative microdose scheme is .15g in the morning and .15 in the afternoon for the "on" day... then two days sober, and repeat.

Thanks for the info. One other thing, should I do it on an empty stomach or does it matter?

I dose on an empty stomach, before breakfast. Occasionally I just mix it into my eggs.
If you do have a large breakfast I'd wait a while before dosing, and/or surely do the cheek trick.

I usually like microdosing many times (around 4) in a day, usually for many days at a time.
Thats me and some may not consider that microdosing. Ill just keep chocolates on me and take a nibble whenever i feel like it/ when i feel myself coming down.

Have you ever taken mushrooms before? Because if not then I recommend against taking a "microdose" your first time.
If it isn't your first time then 0.2 to 0.3 grams should be good.

What effect does it have on you? I've never micro dosed, but I have had times where I didn't eat quote enough to trip. It kinda had me on edge/bored even. Does it like just get you high? I keep wanting to try it but Im worried I won't like the way it feels

No microdosing is not supposed to get you high or tripping at all. It's simply just supposed to change your edge and depth perception, visual acuity possibly, creativity and cognition as well as probably your appreciation to nature.
You're not gonna have any deep insights or experiences on microdoses. It's simply a change in your thinking usually to make you more creative or just more aware. It generally just enhances your senses and I don't mean simply heighten your senses I mean it actually enhances them and literally makes them better. It's used like a nootropic, you're gonna be bored just as easily while microdosing as you would being sober.

I usually weigh it. Sometimes its hard to weigh a small dose depending on your scale. I use about .2. I put it in a coffee grinder and eat it. I notice it.
If I lemon tek it I notice it a lot more. But I am pretty susceptible to shrooms from my experience.
I usually do this once during the week and then when I have the weekend off I take more. Like 1g maybe. Then wait a few days and micro dose again. So in total I end up dosing twice a week. Or about every 3-4 days.
If you've never taken shrooms before, is there a reason you don't want to eat them all at once?

No lol you are supposed to notice something that's the whole point. You definitely notice nootropics and a change in vision but no actual trip or high. Threshold dose is the dose where you start feeling effects but that's not where you are actually "high"

Like a strong cup of coffee with dopamine(sp?) chaser.
Everything is brighter and i find it a lot easier to not be distracted with negative energy. Brings me to the present.
Did this while having a 3 hour per day commute on busses and trains and doing labor durijg the day.
Was very managable but i did have to stop a couple times to drink what felt like more water that usual, or to just look at stuff if i felt a wave.
And of course to walk through the alley and take a toke, but even found i was smoking less.

I wouldn't say it's like a strong cup of coffee because that's I think even more of a "high" or closer to it plus it's more of a stimulant than a "nootropic".
I can't really speak honestly on that though because caffeine has never ever worked on me. Caffeine has absolutely no effect on me, the only thing that works is cocaine.

Yes and maybe i was not properly microdosed as i just nibbled chocolate. About a gram a day eaten thoughout the day. i did get 'high' for over ten days morning to night if that means it was not a microdose that i could tell i ate some 
Didnt measure each dose to the .001 g or anything so it may be wise to wait for someone more experienced with even smaller microdose experiences.
im sure a quick search would reveal many threads. Something like 'microdose results'
Good luck, definitly not a mind fuck experience. If youve taken more than a few grams before id bet youll have a good time.

If you got "high" then it wasn't a microdose. Even 0.4 for me is pushing it so 1 gram is definitely not a microdose that's a trip. If you took mushrooms in any dose (above 0.1) you should feel it but "high" or the trip doesn't really start until the 0.5 gram mark. 1 gram for me is the minimum amount I have to take for any kind of true mushroom experience.

I get it but i dont get it.
If you can feel it youve taken too much.
Kind of a thin line.
This time i was describing i was digging for hours in the sun for days, i wasnt really high or i couldnt have done my tasks. By high i mean anything above baseline conciousness.

No... If you feel it that simply means you have taken it that doesn't mean you've taken too much. You're supposed to feel it....feeling a change in headspace or consciousness is not the same as being high. Just because you feel it doesn't mean you're high.

Funny that you say this because I had a gram one time and was digging for hours as well but I definitely tripped. The comedown actually made it easier to dig.
A high is not anything above baseline consciousness because by that logic cigarettes, caffeine, nootropics etc. would all be considered "highs" but they aren't. You can take any of those and drive legally. Simply tweaking your consciousness slightly is not being high.

Well at least its cleared up to me what the confusion was between us,
I do consider cigs and coffee to be highs.
So where i used the word high to describe my feeling, by your terminology i was slightly tweeked in conciousness.

Yea that's what was confusing me too- "high" is a relative term
Is there a point in dosage where you will feel stoned and happy but not really trip? Just curious I dont have experience with low dose mushrooms
