Ah, the magical world of #pseudoscience 🍄✨, where an 80-year-old woman with Alzheimer's gobbles shrooms and—surprise!—finds her voice again. Because who needs decades of medical research when you have "personalized microdosing" and a sprinkle of wishful thinking? 🙄🔮

24.1 million U.S. adults report microdosing cannabis — nearly double those microdosing psilocybin or LSD. Researchers didn’t expect cannabis to dominate, but moderation is becoming mainstream.
Some use it for anxiety or pain relief, others simply to stay lighter.

#Microdosing for #Depression Appears to Work About as Well as Drinking Coffee
For years, people from CEOs to novelists have taken tiny amounts of psychedelics (typically using #psilocybin mushrooms or #LSD) to support well-being. New research shows that benefits for depression may be attributable to a #placebo effect. Essentially, medium-strength cup of #coffee may prove more beneficial in treating major depressive disorder than a tiny dose of acid

#microdosing has tremendous potential, but it’s also incredibly dangerous. The psychological impact of hallucinations can be as insidious as obvious (both), and might take decades to become apparent, especially if the therapist has no personal experience of the drug.

"Imagine you purchase a bag of gummies labeled nootropic – a term used to describe substances that claim to enhance mental ability and function, or 'smart drugs.' However, within hours of consuming them, your heart starts racing, you’re nauseated and vomiting. Then you begin convulsing and have a seizure, resulting in a trip to the hospital.
You certainly did not expect to have such a severe reaction to an over-the-counter edible product, which is available online and in herbal and vape shops nationwide. What happened?
So-called 'microdosing' of mushrooms has been on the rise over the past few years, accompanying a shift in local policy in some areas and increasing research into its potential benefits for mood and mental health. Microdosing involves the ingestion of small quantities of psychoactive mushrooms, less than a regular dose and not in sufficient quantities to induce a 'trip' or psychedelic experience, but to boost mood, creativity, concentration or productivity.
Psychedelic mushrooms are illegal at the federal level, restricted as a 'Schedule 1' substance by the Food and Drug Administration, though some states and local municipalities have begun the process of decriminalizing the possession of these mushrooms.
This greater acceptance of mushrooms and psychedelics has led to a growing market for edible products containing non-hallucinogenic mushroom species that are appearing on the shelf at grocery stores, vape shops, even gas stations, with claims that these products improve mental function.
To meet demand, manufacturers are also turning to other types of mushrooms – including both psychoactive and non-psychedelic – some of which are potentially more toxic. But key pieces of information are often missing for consumers to make informed decisions about which products to consume."

Es ist phänomenal wie konzentriert man man bei #microdosing alles auf einmal abarbeiten kann und das ganze auch in einer hervorragenden Qualität.
Reden wir gar nicht mal davon wie gut sich Musik anfühlen kann.

Habe den Eindruck bei #Psychedelika-'Kursleitern' im Netz, die ihr Wissen verkaufen wollen, dass #Microdosing höher nachgefragt ist als Makrodosierung. Sehr zweifelhafter Trend:
• Für Neurotypische laut Studienlage effektiv Schlangenöl
• Gefahr für Herzklappenfehler, wenn man nicht genau weiß, was man tut (siehe mein Eintauchen in die medizinische Studienlage auf meinem Blog)
• Falsche Versprechungen von Microdosing als Antidepressivum etc., für die es aber Makrodosen benötigt.

Der Konsum von #LSD in Kleinstmengen soll glücklich, kreativ und ausgeglichen machen. In der #Schweiz ist #Microdosing jedoch verboten. Trotzdem tun es Studierende: als Selbsttherapie bei depressiven Verstimmungen oder zur Entspannung. Reporter Samuel Konrad will wissen, was hinter dem Hype steckt, und beginnt seine Spurensuche in der Züricher Partyszene.

Mikrodosierung mit #LSD wird als aussichtsreiche Therapieform für neurodivergente Menschen diskutiert, doch verwandte Medikamente sind für ihre Neigung zu Herzklappenfehlern vom Markt genommen worden. Es existiert irritierend wenig Wissenschaftskommunikation dazu. Darum habe ich mich selbst in die Studienlage eingegraben.

This actually makes sense as #PTSD is about the lack of social support after a traumatic event A) someone on the #spectrum is much more likely to feel alone in general and therefore will feel like they are suffering alone and B ) the average person will not understand why something a person on spectrum found traumatic is traumatic and therefore dismiss and diminish it, often belittling them for being a wimp. I've found a few triggers here and there but never viewed myself as having PTSD, however looking back on my days prior to college I can see how many of my reactions to stress were hyperfragile. I would just cripple at stresses that were nothing to the average person.
There are serious breakthroughs in the treatment of PTSD with #MDMA , which allows the brain to feel positive emotions on the level of a normal person, #ketamine , which allows the mind to dissociate the emotions from the trauma to help them reframe it in a much less emotionally crippling way and #Psilocybin mushrooms which causes the brain to become hyper-plastic, a person with PTSD has hyper-crystalline memory at the level of an elderly person which makes it hard to change the way one thinks.
I never used MDMA or ketamine but I have used #shrooms 3-4 times in my life and look back that is around the time my life and confidence began to improve. Mind you at the time a LOT of changes were happening including my use of #self-hypnosis , so I can't say for certain if the shrooms helped or not. Luckily its impossible to become addicted to shrooms because they are so overwhelming you want quite a break between them except for maybe #microdosing .
However I would love now to try MDMA and ketamine therapy with a trained #psychologist and see if some of my other issues such as long term #depression which drives my #ADHD which I unknowingly use as a tool to distract myself from depression. Ketamine probably will not be nearly as useful for me as MDMA as I have in fact, possibly because of my #autism, been able to emotionally disconnect from bad memories and reframe them, but I'd be willing to try with qualified therapist if they believe it might help.
That said, John Oliver has recently done an episode showing that due to the severe shortage of licensed therapists, and the way drug/insurance companies fund things, only the rich or upper middle class may have access to these treatments while the poor who have some of the most trauma that often keeps them poor, will be left without this kind of treatment. This will lead many to self-medicate illegally which in the case of MDMA and ketamine can lead to addictions if not dosed properly, and without the therapist engaging in talk therapy, will only give a fraction of the possible benefits.
