Been "microdosing" daily for over a month AMA * 1
    #23899828 - 12/06/16 12:40 PM (7 years, 1 month ago)

I've been "microdosing" on a 3rd of a gram of cubes (daily) for a little over a month. Since then I have been able to retain more information, have more self confidence, my anxiety is turned way down and I've had the motivation to work out whenever. More people should be doing this! So ya ask me anything that's on topic.

I used legal herbs a lot which is like microdosing, for the most part, expect for a few of the herbs that really work wonders.

Herbs? Yerbamate? Ganja?

Only hope can give rise to the emotion we call despair. But it is nearly impossible for a man to try to live without hope, so I guess that leaves Man no choice but to walk around with despair as his companion.

HAHA.  Ganja is a legal herb now.  I tried over 150 herbs to find the good ones.  I almost died a few times.  I have heard they are mainly outlawed in parts of Europe now.

Been thinking about doing this ...I have tried microdosing on occasion, just not on a daily basis though....do you dose more than once a day?

Just 1 time a day. I take 0.33 of a gram with breakfast. You should try it man! Especially if you have lots of cubes just sitting around.

It's too dangerous.  You're better off not trying herbs.  If you read a lot about drugs, you will find something.  Some of them are very dangerous.  Some people died of kidney failure at some type of clinic using herbs and they banned most of them in parts of Europe, I understand!

I feel like the background noise of life is turned down. Like it lifts the cloud of stress/self doubt thats lingering in the back of my mind. Really my only concern is if prolonged consumption of the alkaloids could be bad for my physical health. I have no idea if thats a legit concern to have or not.

I have a lot of wild ovoids (pretty potent) and have felt effects from just eating a single mushroom...just haven't strung any days together yet...I think I may give it a try tomorrow morning.

Do you think it affects your sleep habits at all?

I'm all for micro-dosing psilocybin but daily seems too much even at such low doses.
I have tried it for a few weeks with 0.3g once every 2-3 days so that eventually I could sustain myself without them.

I'm going to see if Prazosin(aplha blocker) helps because it acts in the same way as magic mushrooms by stimulating and inhibiting regions of the sympathetic nervous system.

Psilocybin = sympathomimetic, (of a drug) producing physiological effects characteristic of the sympathetic nervous system by promoting the stimulation of sympathetic nerves.

This is a valid concern.  I like to microdose occasionally, 2x a week, but never daily; and never for an extended amount of time, as this may damage the heart valves:

4)Morning Glory-HBWR (+cumin, cinnamon aldehyde adducts) > Methyl chavicol (need more activators)

If it's microdosing it's probably not a concern.
Quote:

However, these drugs differ enormously in their half life. Psilocin has a half life of around 2.5 hours following oral psilocybin administration, while cabergoline has a half life of ~65 hours (from the prescribing information), so it will be exposed to cardiac fibroblasts for around 25X as long as psilocin. Extrapolating a very long stretch, a weekly mushroom trip is probably not going to cause cardiotoxicity.




Once every 2-3 days is so that you don't solely rely on psilocybin and can develop your own sense of comfort.

Alright, final data review on known 5-HT2b agonists causing cardiopathies vs psilocybin. I've been trying to find a drug closer to psilocin in terms of its dosage and resulting plasma concentration relative to its EC 50 for the 5-HT2b receptor, and also one that's only a partial agonist. Bromocriptine (...) (shows) a strong relationship between cumulative dose and risk of developing valvular heart disease.

How do these dosages correlate to the pharmalocologically relevant plasma concentrations? A 7.5 mg dose of bromocriptine results in a maximal plasma concentration of 1.3 ug/L, which equates to 2 nM. 25 mg peaks at 2.4 ug/L, or 3.7 nM. Its half life is 4.83 hours, 2-fold longer than psilocin.

Bromocriptine appears to be able to induce cardiac valvulopathies at concentrations far below the EC 50 (around 50x lower). This would suggest that a 5-HT2b agonist of similar efficacy would also be able to induce valvulopathies at similarly low concentrations. Psilocin's EC-50 of 58 nM means that it could be cardiotoxic at chronic concentrations 1nM. Psilocin shows a peak serum concentration of 8.2 ng/ml, or 40 nM after administration of 15.7 mg (/70kg) psilocybin. Assuming linear dose vs plasma concentration, 0.5 mg of psilocybin would reach the equivalent plasma concentration of bromocriptine in the high dosage study, that's equivalent to 100mg dried P. cubensis assuming 0.5% concentration.

People who report microdosing with mushrooms take more than this much. 




If he's right you should definitely stop doing it daily IMO, ichugwindex.

If he is right this is sad news indeed. I've been the happiest I've been in my whole life from daily microdosing and I would hate to have to stop. I've never been so motivated/energized/perceptive so this makes me sad to have to end it.

Psychedelics are serotonin receptor agonists. The drug You are talking about is an antagonist. Agonists activate receptors and antagonists block them.

The question is of cumulative, especially daily, dosage.  That study you shared had only four doses given, all of which were spaced out at least two weeks apart.  It does not address the issue.

Agonist activate receptors(stimulation) which eventually leads to numbing(inhibition).

I'm advocating for a microdose of psilocybin once every 3 days.
Psilocybin has a low toxicity(LD-50) and is physically safe in those regards.

Do you have anything better than a reddit blog to support the claim of cardiovascular risks associated with the use of psilocybin?

This is not an adequate reference.

The thread links a study done in mice using "every other day" dosing:
Quote:

 
http://old.imp.lodz.pl/nowy_pttox/abstracts/streszcz07/Borowiak%20ABSTRACT.pdf (...) shows significant ECG abnormalities in rats
(...)
here's what hamilton morris had to say about this (above) study: "Like most animal tox studies the dosing regimen does not accurately reflect "normal" patterns of human use, it would be very unusual for anyone to ingest psilocin every other day for 12 weeks, though what is impressive about the study you linked is the very low dose of psilocin administered, which would actually be sub-psychedelic if dosed equivalently in humans.

I certainly do think it's possible for long term, frequent, or high dose use of some psychedelics and empathogens to cause heart valve damage. This is probably more of a concern for people who consume large quantities of 6-APB, DOB or similar high affinity full agonists of 5HT2B, but psilocin could also be a concern if it were used very frequently. So...yeah, don't ingest psilocin everyday would be the takeaway I suppose. "

What do you mean? When an agonist is bound to a receptor it also blocks it the way an antagonist does but it also stinulates the receptor. Once it is removed by the body the receptor is available again. Maybe i dont understand what you mean.

OP have you found that you need to take it eveyday to get the positive effects?

Doesnt microdosing every 3 days defeat the purpose? doesnt that give the mushrooms time to exit the body thus wasting the drug and not doing anything for the mind in that situation?

That's better, although it is a light hearted critique.
A faster heart rate and reduced blood flow may result from excessive use of psilocybin.

@BANANA.MAN
Stimulation over time leads to a numbing effect. E.g. Working out

As for OP, once every three days is so that you don't rely on psilocybin to be productive or proactive.
Imagine it like a spotter at the gym, it's helpful for a boost but you shouldn't rely solely on them to get you through it.

Im assuming you mean receptor down regulation (when receptors disappear) thats not why microdosing has benefits. It comes from the activation of the receptors not the downregulation of them. Everybody i have talked to says that microdosing has no effect on tolerence to full sized doses. Ive even heard people say they coild microdose and trip later that week. My friend also says he gets some positive effects from just one single microdose. Anyway thats not the point of the thread.

Op please update us if you experiment some more. I think ill try a .5 of cubes sometime because a .3 didnt seem to help me and im not willing to microdose more than 2 or 3 times a week because i would rather teip once in a while.

I will report back. Tomorrow will be first day without dosing in a little over a month so it should be interesting. Haven't decided if I should slow down to every other day or maybe 2 times a week

Only hope can give rise to the emotion we call despair. But it is nearly impossible for a man to try to live without hope, so I guess that leaves Man no choice but to walk around with despair as his companion.

I'm not talking about tolerance I'm talking about psilocybins inhibitory effects on the sympathetic nervous system which is responsible for regulating the fight or flight response.

It's a benefit because it allows us to act more human like without the distracting interference of gut feelings and intuition. Psilocybin allows us to take the time to focus on our experiences.

I would like to know why you feel this way. In the one month I have been doing this I feel like it has improved my life considerably

I've been planning on microdosing. Was thinking to do .2 of penis envies every three days. How do you consume them? You said with breakfast, do you blend it in a smoothie or somethin? Would you think it would help people who suffer from depression?

Psilocin microdoses are best taken rectally imo

The mechanisms of action of the hallucinogens lysergic acid (LSD) and psilocybin (magic mushrooms) are complex, with various effects on serotonergic, dopaminergic, and adrenergic receptors. These drugs have mild adrenergic effects, producing manifestations of sympathetic arousal such as dilated pupils, sinus tachycardia, hypertension, and hyper-reflexia. Cardiovascular complications are rarely serious, although the potential for arrhythmias and myocardial infarction exist.

Rectally.
Daily.
Jk I just break them up a but like you would with some ganja and drink them down. It's really not too unpleasant with such a small amount or sometimes I do make a shake with some whey protein and toss em in the blender. Honestly if it was an option for me I would grind them to a powder and put it in gell capsules

I did gel capsules once and they're great for microdosing, they fit 0.2g in each.

Otherwise a mouthful of fruit juice or cordial makes tiny pieces of shrooms easy to swallow.

I always feel like microdosing has so much to offer and heal, and yet we barely speak of it.

Have you tried microdosing less often and it didn't work? Because I'd think the best thing to do, in any case, would be to aim for the smallest does that still had the positive effect.

Feeling pretty much the same today (great!) but its only been 1 day. I have a feeling I will need more tomorrow or the day after. Still open to answer any questions

Would love more reports and data on microdosing if anyone has any good links. I'm hoping to utilize stones to experiment with microdosing. If anyone has more feedback experience they could share, I'd love to hear it.

I had my world rocked 18 years ago (havent tripped since) via shrooms and rue and than had some follow up WTF experiences with cannabis and no drugs a few years after.

I been afraid to revisit the "space" till now. I've felt "sticky" mentally/etc. for a few years now which I use to correct via tripping 1-4 times a year. Use to keep me fluid and moving in the right direction with good progress. Hoping the stones can help with that.

microdosing every 4th day is way better and more beneficial.
look up dr. fadiman, he's one of the experts on the subject of microdosing and he told me this himself.

I did micro dosing(0.3g) for about a month and found that 4 days is too big a gap in between doses, 2-3 days in between is my recommendation from personal experience.

I find that a mushroom afterglow after a trip lasts the day after but LSD lasted two for me the one time i have done it so far. Maybe microdosing LSD allows you to take longer gaps.

LSD is known to leave a strong physical sensation for 1-2 days which may be slightly distracting while psilocybin might leaves a pleasant 'hum' so as to say.

I haven't tried microdosing lsd either :shrug:

I agree every other day is still working quite fine. Might try every 3rd day or something.

Agreed. I've been taking 5-7 grams fresh daily and feel great. More self confidence, better sleep, memory has improved, and I just feel generally better. :mushroom2:

Just started micro-dosing myself. I plan on doing .2 every three days. Kind of went overboard...bought a pack of 1000 gell caps and made them all last night! My wife and best friend are joining in on the micro-dosing as well. Main goal is to reduce anxiety so that I can ween myself off of benzos.

Took my first dose yesterday, was very happy all day although had a bit of anxiety at first that quickly faded. Nothing noticeably different today, well see how tomorrow goes.

I thought microdosing might be a more interesting (Ok, spectacular) way to get hold of mild depression than SSRIs.
So I tested 250-500mg dried GT. These low doses gave me a pleasant buzz. Mild intoxication is great to relax in the evening but nothing I want during the day while working. So I stayed with dosing after work.
500mg twice a week in the evening for about three weeks gave me profound anticipation for these relaxed evenings without a perceptible
difference during the day.
Overall, this dosing scheme did not work out for me.
