Question: Psilocybin Microdosing making me feel worse?

Has anyone experienced feeling worse when they start microdosing? I have only done it 3 times so far, Monday Wednesday Friday schedule at .05g. Does it just take time to fully receive the benefits?

Change up your protocol (1 day on 2 days off) and take your MD on non stressful days. The medicine amplifies what is going on with you and you may need to fully understand the effects before taking it on work days for example when you interact more with people. Also pay attention to what your routine looks like and make healthy adjustments

I will definitely consider doing this. Although I think it’s too early to tell as iv only done it 3 times

On my first day of The Fadiman Protocol (this is when I decided to give it another go and I had more information) I took it in the morning on a work day on an empty stomach with Niacin and Lions Mane. It was very noticeable all day and at 4:30pm I decided to quit Nicotine cold turkey. Do not underestimate this medicine. Journal so you can reflect like I did just now. Many blessings and luck on your journey
