Migraines and Microdosing Mushrooms...

Hi all... I’ve got a couple people in my life who suffer from migraines and I’ve heard both low doses and micro doses work wonders for both cluster headaches and people who suffer from migraines. I would love to help them out because they’ve tried all the pharmaceutical stuff... They’re open to it so I am wondering should we try a micro dose of .2-.3g every 3 days, or more a dose when the migraines start? Does anyone have any experience with this? I’m very curious... Cheers!

I wouldn't give any mushy naive person more than like .10-.13 to start... Even then, I've given .10g to people who have gone full pupil dilation minor visual tripping at that minimal weight. Best to start real low and figure out where the tipping point is of comfortability and then back it down. .30 is way too much.

Paul Stamets on Joe Rogan said .1g 4 days on and 3 days off. Below is a link to the Podcast episode. He talks about the Protocols at about 35min. The whole thing is def worth a listen.

I suffer from migraines and wouldn't really bother on dosing low amounts of shrooms to help with them. I would just take pills the dr prescribed and they go within 20-60 mins.
If you suffered from cluster heads aches, then that is a different story.

Unfortunately this individual has tried the Dr prescribed stuff and nothing works... I have heard this is definitely more miraculous for cluster headaches but can also do some wonders for migraines too... Thanks for the input! Cheers!

My dad has this issue.
Nothing would work ever his entire life.
I got older, brought him a bunch of mushrooms once.
Said it was the only thing that worked.
I wana say he would dose as needed when he felt it coming on but also microdosed here and there either way.
If you want more info besides "it works" (which seems it does, i thought there were some studies or evidence to support the why) then i can inquire for more info from his experience and use if youd like

I’m so glad he found something that worked. If you don’t mind I would really appreciate if you could inquire into dosage for the “onset of the migraine” medication... As well as his microdosing experiences if he did so It would be so helpful. Cheers!

Yeah i asked him and he said he cant recall...
I do know he never weighed anything so i imagine he just took a small amount.
I would recommend you experiment a bit with it and see what works for you.
I would say typically i would expect a dose of .3g or so and maybe even slightly more, such as .5g.
But the mushrooms being used may impact this.
Highly recommend you grind them up and keep them dry in an airtight container and experiment to see what works for you.
Typical regimen for microdosing on a regular basis is something like every couple days or every other day, around .3g or so.
Again this really varies and is dependent on the person and other factors.
Best way is experiment and explore. Find what works for you.
There is no right or wrong way.
Dont be scared or worried about anything at all.
"And so there you see a first pass, a small dose of half a gram, which dramatically reduced the number of attacks, which then built up again over a few days, and then a larger dose was taken, and the attacks virtually disappeared. A couple of years later, the same patient produced a map showing that if they took a dose of this every few months, they could virtually eliminate the possibility of cluster attacks. Remarkable."

I suffer from clusterheadaches, especially as a teenager I had some strong phases with attacks multiple times a week. Since I tried psychedelics the attacks became less and less frequent. I'm in my mid-thirties now and within the last ~5 years I had only five or six attacks in total.
Mushrooms do help me alot. Whenever I sense an attack comming, I dose like haf a gram of dried cubensis and the attack won't really start. Then I'm off baseline for sure, but with no major headaches. I can continue to do daily tasks without having to lay in bed in darkness for two hours..
I even made some mushroom chocolates with half a gram of cubes, not for tripping but only as medicine for my cluster-attacks.
I heard with migraine it's similar.
Not sure if a microdose like .1g really helps, I'd up the dose a little, to 0.3 or 0.4g.
Just tell them that it might impact them a little, like a strange sedative state of mind, unusual bodyload, or tiredness and strange thoughts. Just to make sure they won't freak out because they feel strange. Tell them it's part of the medicine. They won't bother if it helps with the pain.
