The Effectiveness of Microdosed Psilocybin in the Treatment of Neuropsychiatric Lyme Disease: A Case Study

"he began microdosing psilocybin (desiccated whole mushrooms) 100 mg orally three times a week, increasing the dose to 125 mg after two weeks. Within two days there was a noticeable improvement in mood. Within two weeks he was feeling consistently well again."

that's a pretty remarkable response

i have tried a similar regime over the last 2-3 months - but other than elevated mood on the day i take the micro dose - i cannot say i have had obvious benefits.

worth a try though as this dosing is below what is expected to have any adverse effects - or any noticeable psychedelic effects at all

Yes, I can't say that I have personally tried it myself. I would be interested to try it though.

I microdosed Psilocybin this past winter, from February - March. It had a profound effect on my mood and motivation, but it's not something I would want to use long term.

I will say that the result of this psilocybin experiment is that I'm going back to school, so it did have a huge positive effect on my intellectual curiosity.

hi MagicBeans

ref your mention of intellectual curiosity and motivation

i had a friend at school who got thrown out of university first time around - i did also for slightly different reasons.

we basically partied for a few years culminating in eating A LOT of magic mushrooms

he went back to University and got a 1st in physics taking 1 year less than normal (a 1st in physics 30 years ago was a v rare thing) and i went on to become a C-suite executive in the business world.

it seems to be a pretty common thing - good luck to you

i am curious as to what negative effects led you to say its not something you would use long term?
