At least this [1] suggests that LSD microdosing doesn’t do anything, while there have been a few studies that suggested psilocybin micrososing does. Dunno how strong the evidence is in either direction but that would make me more inclined to start with psilocybin if I were to experiment myself.
Something that couldn’t also be accounted for by placebo? I guess it’s impossible to properly control for that in a non-blind test. What kind of effect are you experiencing and how strong (if you don’t mind)?
Yes, same as psilocybin. When you microdose you are not supposed to get psychedelic effects. The supposed benefits come from prolonged presence of the molecule in the body. Similar how antidepressants work, the point is not to take one tablet once.
The effects of microdosing begin on consumption and end on discontinuation. They do not build up and fade slowly. Tolerance and breaks are frequently discussed.
So, it's not about the effect of a prolonged presence.
100mcg is usually a full dose. Usually micrososing is 1/10th of a typical full dose so 10mcg. Your tolerance is already quite high if you're at 64mcg/day and not actively feeling any tripping.
> I've been microdosing psilocybin daily for the past six months, [...] I didn't get COVID.
Made me laugh.
