You're trying to make the point using BitCoin, but in the early 2000s I had just over 14,000 of them, so I can quite clearly see a point in getting in early.
>Welcome to year 30 of trying to prove psilocybin works for psychiatric illness.
That is true, but it misses some important nuance: the war on drugs has effectively eliminated the ability for legitimate researchers to do significant research on these criminalized drugs.
For example, for me personally, a mild dose of marijuana is as effective as Zolpidem (Ambien) as a sleep aid, but without the lethargy and mental fog the next morning.
I've been doing some recent research and testing, and here's what I have found: I'm talking about the "Penis Envy" strain, which is quoted as being ~30% more potent than typical. 2g is the edge of where I start getting visual artifacting, and only sometimes. 3g, which I have not tried, was quoted as being towards the upper end of a "theraputic dose", and 6g as the upper end of a recreational dose. Some friends with much more experience consider 1g to be microdosing, FWIW. 0.25g I can't feel at all. .5g I start to feel some euphoria and 1g to 1.5g I start to feel "high" but with no noticeable psychedelics or just minor visual artifacting when I'm reading.
I don't really have anxiety or depression. I do have a fairly high stress family life, wife and kiddos have lots of issues. A few weeks ago I had 2g on an empty stomach on a Sunday and I just listened to music for ~4 hours and it was like I had a vacation. I hadn't enjoyed listening to music so much for 20-30 years. Also, I seem to feel kind of sleepy when I'm trippy, but afterwards I'm wide awake for 4-5 hours. So evening dosing is best avoided.
It's kind of great, for me personally, living in a state where it has been decriminalized.
I learned from an episode of "The Studio" that by "an eighth" you are likely referring to an eighth of an ounce is around 3.5 grams. Dude thought he got really mild shroom laced chocolates ("an eighth of a gram") and much hilarity ensued.
