Wait a second, I am just thinking here, but if shrooms can posibly repair connections in your brain, it would be a cure for ADHD. ADHD is caused by a few connection in your brain not connecting thoroughly, and if shrooms can repair those connections, it will sereosly be the awnser to all my problems! I need to get my spores and start growing...

I doubt it's that simple. I've never heard of psychedelics being an effective cure to ADHD.
Do not think any drug is the solution to all of your problems. Not much can come out of it.

Before people label this as a breakthrough in a cure for colorblindness, I believe the OP's case is unique since this happened to him not through genetics, but instead, through some accident. His eyes could be physically fine (the cones specifically), but his colorblindness could have been brought on by some neurological damage/trauma.

I'll mention that i'm partially colorblind, but not completely. I only have some trouble distinguishing between certain shades of colors. (my case isn't severe at all). When I take mushrooms, colors become much more vibrant/alive/richer, but I believe this is a normal effect of psychedelics, and that my condition doesn't actually get "cured".

Anyway, a good test for the OP to take would be the Ishihara test such as one like this for example: http://www.toledo-bend.com/colorblind/Ishihara.asp;   
All eye-doctors have books filled with those images to test for colorblindness.
A color-blind individual will not be able to see a lot of the numbers within the circles, or would see a different number than a non-colorblind individual. This test is effective because its not a "guess the name of the color" test, and instead tests with slight color/shade differences to disguise numbers within the circles.

Can't see anything in that one.
I'm colorblind though, what is it supposed to be?

Any updates?

Edit: I fail the Ishihara test sober, haven't tried it tripping, but I don't think it would make a difference. I was colorblind from birth (not completely black/white, the more usual situation that I have trouble distinguishing blue/purple, yellow/red stoplights, green/brown and red/green). If anybody wants numbers and experiments though, let me know and I will see what I can do.

And phaseflux, your link is broken.

I am red/green colour blind and find colours hard to pick out when crowded together. When tripping every colours stands out vividly from each other so there may be something in this. I'm gonna be test this out using an Ishihara color test soon as my trips arrive. Will do the tests on myself pre, mid and post trip and let you know how i get on.

Just wanna say - I'm red / green colourblind, and every time I take shrooms I see red clearly. It's incredible. Next time I do it i may take the Ishahara test. Blows my mind, I can see red so clearly.
