What if the “normal” dose is more like micro dosing and what people have traditionally thought to be the normal dose is overconsumption, like getting drunk on alcohol?
But you didnt answer the question tho?
What happens if someone is taking an antidepressant and using a psychedelic like psylocibin at the same time?
Is this why they don’t work if you are on antidepressants?
Ok so are psychiatrists actually already using psychedelics to treat depression or are things still in the study stages? I ask because I called my psychiatrists office to ask about this and the receptionist laughed at me, saying “no, we don’t do that here”. What’s the deal?
Psychedelic’s definitely have potential to deal with mental health symptoms like anxiety and depression, I would like to try them again but it’s just so hard to source here
I'd sooner trip out than take antidepressants which are proven ineffective.
Team Psychedelics all day 😂
That explains why those things can be good or bad for people who have mental health problems
My first time taking LSD, my severe depression was 100% cured for a solid 8 days. My memories of even having depression were so confusing to me, I didn’t understand how I could have ever been depressed. I went through my phone and deleted all my “depression memes” since i could no longer relate to them. After the 8th day, it returned again. But those 8 days were the best days I’d ever experienced.
Cool!
Hallucinations would definitely scare me. 🤷
Do all antidepressants cause emotional blunting? Both happy and sad? Thank you.
There's a lot of potential in psychedelics, I can't wait to try any of them DMT specifically but it's just so hard to find a reliable source over here, l'll be glad if anyone can be of help
Cannabis too, beautiful.
Well depending on the strain…
There's nothing like that sweet smell during the experience.
So does this mean you're going to trip?
What if it worsens it?
Comparing psychedelics to alcohol isn't really possible, and you probably should have pointed out that alcohol is a depressant
