Microdosed psilo during a migraine
    #26395487 - 12/22/19 11:48 AM (4 years, 1 month ago)

I am sure this topic has run through this board many times but this is my experience so far.

Im in my thirties and a few years ago I had a weird headache that lasted a month: the first pain was so severe I woke up to it. I felt nauseous, fast movements were impossible, dizziness and sensitivity to light etc. It felt like a concussion. It slowly faded.

It returned in a lesser scale a few times. It has a warning phase after it can get real bad. After the peak it fades away.

After this episode it seemed like the worst was over and I was having aftershocks: a slow pounding pressure at the top of the skull. During the main phase the pain moved from behind my eyes up to my skull.

I decided to see what 0.25g dried liberty caps would do and during the effects the headache was diffused and fading.

The main reason I took it after the main attack was I wasnt sure it would help and the idea it would make this pain worse was unthinkable. But now it seems it helps to deal with the migraine so when the next attack is on the horizon Im gonna drop it instantly and see if it can sweep the legs from under it completely.


Have you guys tried it?

I have. I've found melatonin to have a similar effect on migraines as well though in my own experience.

Yes, I have cluster heachache, that's some kind of periodically occuring migraine exclusivly on one side of the head, right behind the eye it feels.
It's a really strong pain, an attack last up to two hours and floors me completly. Winding in my bed in darkness is the only thing I can do.
The attacks come and go, sometimes I have several per week, sometimes not a single one in half a year.

Mushrooms help me keep the pain down. It doesn't fade completly, but it's managable to a point that I don't have to lay down in darkness, but can maintain doing some things.

Mushrooms are the medicine. :sun:

Even with "normal" headache they seem to do wonders.
A small dose like a quarter gram (cubensis) is enough to stop the pain. Not only for me but also for anyone else I gave this medicine to in this context.
For clusterheadache I take like half a gram. Slightly tripping, but no pain.

I've been meaning to.

I get several gnarly migraines every year. Usually once every two months or so, sometimes more often sometimes less often...Like full on migraines where I become incredibly sensitive to light and sound and movement and smells and temperature, pretty much ALL sensory stimulus around me becomes unbearable and painful. All I can do is lay down in a cool and dark and silent room, and I usually smoke a lot of weed (weed doesn't do anything to take away the migraine, but it helps me to relax and deal with the pain)...I get nausea at times, sometimes my migraines will build up in intensity over a few hours and "peak" with me puking, and after I puke things start to subside a bit.


But yea...I've been meaning to try out a small dose of mushrooms next time I'm slammed with a migraine. I know psilocin and LSD have both been known to help attenuate migraines and cluster headaches, curious to see how well it works for me.





On the topic of migraines and psychedelics....a few years ago I developed a very severe migraine while on LSD. I feel like it was the LSD that triggered it, but no way to know for sure :shrug: (I know LSD can help lessen or prevent migraines/clusters, so maybe there was some sort of paradoxical reaction and it triggered it?). It was one of the most uncomfortable and miserable days I've ever had though. On top of being super high on a psychedelic and dealing with an intense migraine it was like 105 degrees out that day (I was camping out at a small festival), and I ended up puking all over myself at one point...being very high on LSD (at least 250mcg) with a migraine in 100+ degree weather and puking on one self is pure misery.

It was.


At first I just thought I was feeling "off" from the dose of L since it was a little bit larger than what I usually take...and while it was happening I thought I had food poisoning or something (because of the nausea/puking part), but in hindsight it was for sure a migraine and I have no doubt about it...All the typical symptoms were present it was just hard telling WTF was happening while it was happening with a head-full of L.

...I just laid in my tent for like 7 hours before I felt well enough to get up and I still felt like doo doo for the rest of the night. When the migraine was at its most intense (also while I was peaking on the L) I puked on myself while taking a piss, the puke came up out of no where and I had no time to react, barely had time to lean over a bit but a lot of it ended up on my shorts (I'm usually very good at the art of puking lol).

Ugghh...such a terrible time. I was glad when the sun went down because it was so damn hot out that day.


Another terrible time with migraines (and festivals) was when I was in line for the Symbiosis gathering a few years ago....I wasn't tripping (I was just arriving/waiting in the line of cars) but it was still a miserable time. Had a terrible migraine where all I wanted to do was lay down and cut out as much incoming stimulus as possible...but I had to wait in a line for like 5+ hours, while my low fuel light came on (but I didn't want to leave the line) so I was stressing about running out of fuel in the middle of a huge cluster fuck of a line of cars, while trying to meet up with friends that were in the festival at a certain place & time so I could find there camp, while dealing with some assholes in line that were trying to cut :rolleyes:, then having to find my friends camp, haul my shit from the car to the camp (almost puked a few times from the migraine while hauling my stuff to camp)....as soon as my tent was set up I literally just smoked a bunch of hash oil/herb and immediately put in ear plugs and laid down, I didn't even go out into the festival or mingle with neighbors or anything that first day/night.



Migraines are really one of the most miserable feelings ever...Once one starts to set in I'm ruined for the rest of the day.

Man we are extremely similar.  A few years ago I had some L that gave me a headache every single time I tried it.  I don't know if it was me or the doses.  It was absolutely real and might have just been me since I was the only one that it seemed to happen to.  I've had the same exact experience of having a migraine on about 2-3 hits.  I always keep excedrine/tylenol on hand now just because of that.
