Psilocybin treatment against migrains.
    #3107973 -

Ok... I have a girl... friend... who has migrain problems once a month. She says she feels them starting up again. Supposedly psilocybin cures migrain problems for up to 12 months. How much would an effective dose for curing take? At Erowid there is a document talking about this and the only thing mentioned is the amount of liberty cap mushrooms required for a dose strong enough for curing, not the weight... this is a problem for me because I have p. cubensis, not liberty caps (or whatever latin name they are called, coplandia perhaps? I forget...)
Anyway, what would you reccomend? Dose in weight...

YEah well I'm geared up to get gowing on this project as soon as possible. So that means within these 10 minutes.

The document I mentioned did say that an average dose on liberty caps was 48 mushrooms, the dose which was enough to cure migrain was 12 mushrooms. Thats a 4th of an average dose. So the 4th of an average dose on p. cubensis would equal up to the same amount of psilocybin (roughly) needed to cure migration. Wouldnt this be a reasonable estimation? Be free to object, but I'm going to boil this tea now, I'll check the post before I go on feeding her the stuff, but as for now I'm giving her the 4th of a dose.

It just seems that a 4th of a dose is so fucking little... but oh well...

doses for headaches are not alot... i would guess around 1 gram of psilo cubes. overall it doesnt really matter how much you take... but if she doesnt want to trip then she shouldnt take alot ..obviously

What I hear is psilocybin can be treatment for migraines and cluster headaches. I also notice that while having a regular slight headache of a regular form psilocybin deletes the headache.

Hehe... to put it like this she giggled and said she wouldnt mind a few experiencing its effects. But its late and I dont think its apropriate to give her a full on trip right now, lol. So my own adivice is not even a full psychedelic dose, but not a dose too little either.

I'm taking your advice deepblue, 1 gram it is.

I seem to remeber people finding ithelped by using
normal cubensis strains as recreation, so I would
imagen doses are pretty simular to that, I'E starter dose of
1 to 2 grams, depending on size. Hope it works out for her, I
also seem to remember reading thatit doesnt work for everyone.

I def recomment you pm pinksharkmark though, hes a mod in the politics forum. (damn i fucked his name up first time round lol)

The success rate for treating PMS-induced migraines with psilocybin is not as high as it is for cluster headaches. However, many have reported extremely good results from it. I doubt it would keep the headaches away for as long as twelve months, though. The theory as to why it works so well on clusterheads is that it somehow "resets" the hypothalamus to its normal way of functioning, thus preventing the cluster "cycle" from ever beginning.

PMS-related migraine is different, though. No matter how much psilocybin she takes, next month her hormone levels will alter again. Now, they may alter less radically. My girlfriend didn't suffer from PMS-related migraines, but she did suffer from very bad PMS. I talked her into trying about a gram of cubensis aborts. From her description, she reached probably somewhere around a Level two trip, or maybe just under, and her PMS symptoms abated drastically for eighteen months afterwards. She was amazed, I was grateful.

My advice would be for her to take enough to reach somewhere around a Level 1.5 to Level 2 trip. In other words around a gram to a gram and a half of properly dried and stored psilocybe cubensis of average potency. As we are all aware, different batches have different strengths, so the weight is just a guideline. What matters is not how many grams, but what Trip Level is attained. No need to take a Woodstock-sized dose, but from the reports of clusterheads and other migraineurs you have to take enough so there is absolutely no mistake you are under the influence of a hallucinogen. That's why the "Level Two" stage is recommended.

Taking more than that (enough for a Level Three or even Level Four trip) will also work, it's just that it appears not to be necessary.

So when is the government going to legalize magic mushrooms for medicinal purposes?

I wish I was that lucky with my wife. Every month (regardless of her tripping) I'm reminded of the saying, 'If they didn't have a pussy, there would be a bounty on their heads.'

To call humans 'rational beings' does injustice to the term, 'rational.'  Humans are capable of rational thought, but it is not their essence.  Humans are animals, beasts with complex brains.  Humans, more often than not, utilize their cerebrum to rationalize what their primal instincts, their preconceived notions, and their emotional desires have presented as goals - humans are rationalizing beings.

Best of luck with that! You'll have to let us know how she feels and if it works out for her.  :smile:

I have a number of friends who have migraines, but I guarantee that none of them would ever do shrooms becaues that is a "druggie" thing. So unless it is legalized and put in a little pill, it won't help them out.

I'd be willing to try it though  :grin:

never heard about this... hmm..

but, liberty caps aren't Copelandia, they are Semilanceata (if you mean the liberty caps growing around Bergen, which I assume you do...)
