Microdose U - How Microdosing Psilocybin Can Rewire Your Brain From Depression and Anxiety

Hi Dr Dave. Psychotherapist and psilocybin researcher here. OCD & other anxiety disorders tend to need much higher doses to make deep neurological changes that you addressed in this episode. Microdosing does not have the sufficient research as higher doses do. In the literature, psilocybin needs to be in the 20-50 mg range to make deep changes in neuroplasticity. This probably translates to somewhere in the range of 3-5 grams of dried fruit (depends on strength of strain). It’s not an exact science but there is research showing a robust improvement only in the higher doses with proper set/setting and, if possible, a guide or therapist. Ruminating and obsessive thinking is extremely stressful and exhausting and benefits from neuronal rewiring and increased neuroplasticity. Ketamine has also shown good results. However, do your own research and consider higher amounts of psilocybin in correct setting. Wishing you all the best!!!!

Thank you Nakama. Your Hawaii broadcast made me think a lot…I’m going to listen to this broadcast again and give it a lot of thought. It really touched home for me. As I looked at the clock, the microwave said 515 so I looked up the number. As the meaning of angel number 515 is linked to personal freedom, major life changes, and the fact that you have the power to create your own reality, these can be the beautiful energies circling this triptych of digits. Thank you, Dave. I look forward to the Mondays & every Wednesday and every Friday. Lisa
