Failed Microdose * 1
    #26433668 - 01/14/20 05:54 PM (4 years, 1 month ago)

Tried my first micro dose today and wasn’t a fan. Some background: I’m a transfer student who just started at a new university. The adjustment was a bit rocky at first, just being in a new place with new people tends to overwhelm me. I deal with general anxiety but have found ways to significantly decrease it, but the big life change has exacerbated it (it was at its worse immediately on arriving, but after settling in things have evened out).

Anyways, I decided to dose a bit less than .2 grams of homegrown cubes today. I’ve found great relief from anxiety and depression through experiences I’ve had on larger doses, and I was hoping to experience a slight decrease in anxiety so that I could participate more in class. I ate them on a mostly empty stomach at 9:30am.

Roughly an hour after dosing I noticed the mushrooms begin to take some effect. Objects were more vivid, and I was feeling some warm, melty physical sensations. I found it harder to focus on the lecture, my mind tends to drift ordinarily and it only seemed worse with the psilocybin doing its thing. I was too focused on the fact that I had consumed the drug, and consequently I began feeling slightly concerned. Once realizing where my mind had gone, I turned to my breathing and brought myself a meditative state. This worked tremendously, psilocybin has a way of lending itself to meditation and I spent a good five minutes just blissfully existing. This wasn’t productive to note taking, so I eventually stopped and spent the rest of class drifting between periods of attention and daydreams.

I definitely won’t be microdosing before class ever again. It wasn’t an especially terrible or positive experience, it really just made me slightly disoriented and distracted. Also, whenever I take lower doses of mushrooms, I get this strong desire to take more and completely surrender to the experience. Today just felt like I dipped my toes in a lukewarm pool and let them get all wrinkly.

Last thought: after being off SSRI’s for nearly a year, my psilocybin tolerance is very low. I recently took .6gs and had a very noticeable trip with visual and auditory hallucinations. Theres a chance that .1gs is the microdosing sweet spot for me, but I’m not exactly looking to try it anytime soon. Curious to see if anyone else has had negative experiences with microdosing.

The effects you are describing are definitely beyond microdose threshold.  Before you write it off forever try taking a third to half that amount and try again

Expanding creativity tends to induce a state of less focus, as your mind goes to more places. That's how I explain my ADHD, anyways.

Stress hyperfocuses me, so if I microdose while stressed (day before a test), I'll focus like fucking crazy and get a lot of work done and it'll be better than if I hadn't microdosed. I haven't tried microdosing without any imminent deadline, but I suspect it would be similar to your experience.

You might want to try sub-perceptual microdosing which will require a much lower dose.

Yeah we all have different thresholds. It's way too common for people to be like "I microdosed LSD. Took half a tab." Bitch that's not a microdose, do you even know what micro means?!

For me 0.2 would be too introspective. Try 0.1 and see how that goes

Don't give up hope! Keep at it.
I try to do around .2 on a FULL stomach at the beginning of the day.
You will find your sweet spot but in my mind, empty stomachs are for tripping.

You had a learning experience, not a failure!

I'll give it a second chance some weekend, I think I'm just annoyed I got more than I was expecting. I was shooting for a subperceptual dose. Think I need to get a better scale so I can try .05
