Topamax damage and microdosing
    #28355406 - 06/11/23 10:01 AM (7 months, 14 days ago)

Around ten months ago I took a drug called Topamax for about two weeks, at a dose of around 25 - 50mg. I went off because of the side effects, namely memory loss, aphasia, and speaking difficulties. And while my condition improved somewhat upon discontinuation, it never really got back to baseline. I've never really gotten to the point where I can think or speak clearly, or recall words and ideas with the same quickness I used to. I suspect the damage may be permanent.

Could microdosing Psilocybin or any other m-mushrooms help repair the damage?

Wow, I'm so sorry to hear that happened to you, that's scary that a common medication can cause side-effects like that!

There is still a lot of research to be done to determine the full medical potential of psychedelics. I'm not aware of any studies that would apply to your condition specifically. However, there is early evidence that psychedelics increase neuroplasticity and neurogenesis, and decrease neuroinflammation, making them potentially beneficial for various types of cognitive issues. They have already shown promise in a number of different conditions that have been studied, like depression, addiction, anxiety, PTSD, phantom pain, stroke and brain injury, and migraine and cluster headaches.

It is not totally clear what would be an optimal dosage for therapeutic use, but research seems to shows that neurogenesis has a dose-dependent effect, with low doses increasing, and a high dose decreasing, neurogenesis. That would mean micro-dosing could be the best way to enhance the cognitive effects of psychedelics.

Ultimately, there's just not enough information yet to say for sure, but my understanding is that it's certainly plausible you could see some benefits from microdosing psilocybin. Please make sure you consider possible interactions with any medication or supplements you are taking, but otherwise I would say it's relatively low risk and probably worth a shot.

Thanks,
Any advice on approach, like what brand, vendor, or type? I'm utterly new to all of this.

I would advice to use PF tek and fruit the cakes in a water tub.

So easy that even i can do it.

Make a list of supplies you will need and pick any vendor from this list.

Thanks . . . as I'm not in a location where this is legal (I'm fairly certain, anyway), what are my real options? Do I need to travel to a place where it is?

If you're in the United States, it is legal to order and possess spores in most states. Only California, Georgia, and Idaho have laws against it. We have a list of sponsors who sell spores and other growing supplies, which can be shipped to many locations worldwide.

Actually growing mushrooms from those spores is still illegal most places, except in Colorado, Oregon, and certain cities in California, Massachusetts, Michigan, and Washington. We can't condone anyone breaking the law, but assuming you are in one of those locations, you can follow the guides Yahra posted (or Bod's Easy AF cheapest way to get started TEK) and have your first batch of mushrooms in about 3 months. If you are in a different location, be aware that cultivating psychedelic mushrooms could potentially open you up to serious charges, like manufacturing a controlled substance. However, if you choose to accept that risk, it can be done quite easily and discreetly, in a small space, without any weird noises, smells, electricity usage, etc. Psychedelic mushrooms are also not a particularly high law enforcement priority, and the biggest danger usually comes from telling other people in your real life what you're doing. If you have a private space and can keep a secret, it's relatively easy to get away with, regardless of your location. But again, you will need to weigh the risks and benefits for yourself.
