LSD Microdosing

Migrated topic.

Burning the locals, abusing the tourists, terrifyi
So I've come into a surplus supply of Lucy, and I'm trying to figure out how to get rid of it. So far, my ideas are:

1. Drop the whole amount into the water supply for a panel of a UK election debate.
2. Send out one tab per birthday card for the foreseeable future.
3. Try out microdosing.

While 1 and 2 have their benefits, I'm thinking the third way might be the one. I was wondering, has anyone had any experience with microdosing LSD (or shrooms or mescaline)? Was it effective? How did you do it? What doses did you do? The more scientific side of me seems to rule it out as placebo - surely the tolerance issues alone would prevent it being effective - but I'm open to other people's experiences or any experiments you might have seen that are somewhat more rigorous (I found one that ruled it out as effective, but questioned some of the methodology).
 
I've been using microdoses of LSD for treatment of my clusterheadaches. I sometimes get a bit of stimulation that seems to peak and fade around hour 4. Other than that I love it. And it a 40ug dose seems to prevent my headaches for up to 5 weeks.

Number one is a great idea 😁

I too have been thinking of micro dosing, but with mushrooms as Nathanial.Dread has done. Let us know how you get on!
 
I've been microdosing LSD for a few weeks now, and had done so previously months prior.

Yes its effective, but for what is a personal question. For me, increased mood, creativity, slight brightening of colors, more energy, less stress/anxiety/depression, all kinds of positive benefits in my expirence.

I cut 150ug (alleged potency of course) into either 16'ths or 12'ths of a tab (9.3 and 12.5ug) and took one or two doses a day, depending on if I felt the need for another dose.

I would try and take at least two off days a week, and cycle on and off microdosing every few weeks/months or so.

Let us know how it works out if you do try. :thumb_up:
 
Very cool to see all the different takes on microdosing on this thread.

This is a topic that interests me quite intensely as I have microdosed LSD & mushrooms about 50 times in the last 3 years.

However, I still have not gotten to the point where I feel like I can actually do it every single day for prolonged periods of time. It's my work in a clinic office that I don't know whether I could handle or not. It's not that the work is unenjoyable, it's a fantastic place & we do wonderful things for people. It's more that I don't really like to be inside any more than I absolutely have to & when I'm home, I'm either outside doing plant or animal work with nature or simply relaxing, sipping beers, smoking Cannabis & visisting hyperspace in nature.

That being said, here is my personal, favorite way to microdose LSD:

Get ahold of some "peppermint spirits". This is a high-alcohol tincture of organic peppermint plant infused with peppermint essential oil. It's strong stuff & highly preservative.

Now, I tend to eyeball everything & each batch of a given substance I will begin with a little & gauge from there how strong I'd like the effect to be.

So, I take an amount of LSD that would get two adult humans off pretty darn good (not heroic or anything like that) & put that into the peppermint spirits, let it sit for a good 24-48 hours while giving it a couple good shakes & viola!! You have an awesome microdose with each drop of the spirits. When I'm using it, I'll usually use between 1 & 3 drops per day depending.

There's like a thousand drops in a full bottle of peppermint spirits & the alcohol % is high enough that whatever you put in there is never going to go bad.

The last time I made some of this, which was just in the last 2 months, I added to this recipe a very small, perhaps half a gram or less of psilocybin mushroom crumbs from the bottom of one of my stash jars. This added an extra little bonus to the microdose.

Just this past Sunday, I did a drop of the psychedelic peppermint spirits. It helped create a pretty good day out of what should have been a rather stressful & depressing day (I'm not going to go into all that entails here). Later on in towards the end of the day, I vaped a microdose (perhaps .5mg-1mg) of DMT on top of all of it & was just as aware, awake & pleasantly content as ever!

Happy microdosing Shanghigher!!!😁
 
Cheers for all the feedback, guys!

Will probably give it a whirl and see how it goes - been weirdly anxious the past few months, all nasty hypochondria shit. I want to try and break the cycle somehow.

Had a mescaline trip that seemed to sort it out, and then it came back with force after a particularly nasty bout of jetlag. Did a lucy trip, and that calmed things down again, but it is still lingering. Also now actively pursuing a proper diet, mindfulness, and yoga, which seems to be having an impact but still on edge.

Went to the doctors who gave me propanolol (ie. properlols) which made things a billion times worse. I basically took a couple of these and had what could only be described as the worst trip of my whole life - depersonalisation, not knowing where I am, anxiety, flushes, etc. The list of common side effects is massive, no idea why they prescribed me them in the first place.

I'm sure I'll break the cycle. I did, after all, manage to beat a pretty major tussle with depression before, I'm not about to throw in the towel to its jittery cousin.
 
I played with microdosing LSD for a spell. I sincerely find it better to just take 200+ ugs once every month or 2 or when the need arises. Plus I get the amazing aspects of a trip.. and yes LSD can certainly be used as a low level stimulant... I guess if it ever becomes cheap enough and legal enough to aquire it on demand for cheap then I might consider microdosing again, but honestly I just didn't find it to do what I was hoping...

For long term stability I find that the further I keep from alcohol the better I am. I seem to have a pretty solid course of withdrawal from even moderate drinking.. and I'd guess this is because I abused it way to much as a teenager. That is just me though.

Next in line for stability is exercise and meditation...and I am also finding that smoking less pot is good for stability as well.. of course a super stable life isn't alway's the most fun! 8)

Peace

Albert Hoffman used to microdose half his life and once said: "LSD … It is just a tool to turn us into what we are supposed to be."

I have been also microdosing for a month now, roughly. I've always wanted to try it and I now finally did it.

I think it is a very personal thing and not for everybody but all I can say it is the best thing that has happened to me for a while.
It is bringing "the good old me" back into my life. Being over my forties now, I been missing my "younger" spirit for a while. Also I had the feeling I was dealing a subtle depression coupled with anxiety which I tried to deny in my daily life.

I took a 150microgram tab and put it in a 30ml veil with 2/3 distilled water and 1/3 ethanol. This way increases the accuracy of dosing which I think plays a big role when you want do have a good effect and being capable of doing your daily routine.

So far I have been experimenting with different doses, and currently I am very happy with a dose of 8-10ug with 8 feeling almost nothing but you know it "there" and 10 I can feel it scratching the surface. With 15ug I feel the waves peaking and I get tired during the day and wake up very tired the next day. I also tried 20ug but that renders my day useless, the same as if I would smoke some weed. No focus and you feel as if you should have taken a whole tab rather than just 20ug. You will catch yourself gazing and staring, appreciating beauty at things for minutes though ;-)

Also, for now, I take breaks between microdosing. This came naturally to me because I was experimenting with higher doses in the beginning (15ug - 20ug) as I was feeling tired from the result. In general I microdose every second day and the in between always feels very refreshed and my spirits are high.

Another nice side effect: I stopped smoking weed automatically as I was smoking every evening, not much, but to a point were it would not bring me any benefit.

Overall I would say I feel much more optimistic again, my dreams are intenser, I automatically eat healthier and more conscious. Also "things" are happening again in my life, it became a bit dull lately. Everything I do now seems to make sense. Also I noticed that my misses is way more relaxed around me when I microdose. She knows I do it but she never knows when.

I would defiantly give it a try and make sure you experiment a bit with it so you tune it to your liking.

Ok. Since this thread turned into a LSD microdosing thread (logically enough considering the OP), I'd like to play a little devil's advocate:twisted: & suggest this option instead or also.


There have been a few times in my life where when I truly needed a good dose of LSD & a couple came in the mail from dear friends from very far away.

I could go into the details of those particular circumstances just for their sheer amazingness (some are nearly unbelievable), but that would be hijacking this thread, so I'll stick with the topic.

Consider saving some to send to friends. They'll appreciate it. :)
 
Plenty of great advice from all here, many thanks!

I think I'll probably give it a go next week, I'll let you all know how it goes.

And good idea, Doc. Unfortunately, I cannot say whether I will do this or have done this in the past without contravening the rules of the forum (or coming close to). But it does make for a remarkable present :D
 
I microdosed LSD at least once a week for a few months, figuring out different doses for different settings, like a microdose for at work, being in nature, stargazing, or going out at night. LSD can be quite versatile.

I can't say i noticed many benefits from subthreshold microdosing myself, i like to feel something, even if just a flutter. Nowadays i end up forgetting about microdosing in most situations and just save it for a visionary dose when i have the time, it's always worth waiting for.
