Hey there. How are you? I am Dr. Dave and welcome to microdose U today. I'm gonna be sharing with you the absolute beginner's guide to microdosing magic mushrooms. Um, I've been doing these videos for probably close to a year now. And, um, I, I seem to get like the same questions over and over and over again. So a lot of times I refer people to one of my videos or another video, but today what I'm going to try to do is to give you all the information you need to know in one video, that's very easy to understand, very easy to digest. So this could kind of be your go to video. If you have any questions at all, from start to finish about microdosing, you should refer back to it because I'm gonna really try to answer every single thing you need to know about microdosing.
Dr. Dave: (00:47)
If you're a beginner or if you've gotten into it and you have questions. Um, and this is also the type of video that if you have anybody that you know is interested in microdosing and they have a lot of questions, and they're asking you, then refer them to this video because Dr. Dave here at microdose, you will take care of all of the questions. So let's dive right into it right now. Let's start with a question that's, um, basic, and we need to start with this. What exactly is microdosing? So in this video and really in all my videos, when I refer to microdosing, I'm, I'm talking about microdosing magic mushrooms. The active ingredient is SIL Sabin, and there are a lot of other things you can micro dose with people, micro dose with L S D uh, MDMA. Uh, the list goes on and on, but my experience, and I was gonna say my expertise, but my experience is definitely only with magic mushrooms.
Dr. Dave: (01:41)
So I'm referring to magic mushrooms in this video, you can extrapolate to other plant substances if you like. But, um, in this video in particular, we're only talking about magic mushrooms. So microdosing is taking a subception dose of magic mushrooms. So you're not getting the psychedelic effect. You're not going on a trip per se, but the subception dose is enough over time to take care of things that you might want to change in your life, things that are going on in your life that you wanna see improve. And that'll actually segue right into the next section. What do people use it for? Why do people want to microdose? And the answer to that is, well, I'll give you a list of things that I have used it for and continue to use it for. And there are others too that maybe I won't even know about, but there, there microdosing has helped people with many different issues. The most common in some of the ones that I've used at four are depression, anxiety, um, insomnia, PTSD addiction. I personally have never had an addiction problem, but I know many people have. And I know that microdosing magic mushrooms has been very, um, instrumental and, and people have used it successfully in combating addiction problems.
Dr. Dave: (02:59)
Some people want to be more present in the moment, more mindful in their lives. And microdosing is an excellent, excellent tool for that. Some people wanna be more spiritual, understand the, their purpose of life. Um, things like that. And again, microdosing really helps with, with that as well. I actually had a problem sometimes when I wasn't, maybe I was going through depression, anxiety. I just felt like I couldn't get things going. I just, you know, I would wake up in the morning and just, I would just Dick around. And, and I had maybe like a list of things I wanted to do for the day, or even in my mind, but I just, I just couldn't get going. I was just lazy, procrastinating and magic mushrooms have really helped me quite a bit with that. And some people wanna be more creative, better at their work.
