Never before have I so noticeably been able to turn down my anxiety like turning the volume knob on a stereo. Doesn’t make you feel overall as “altered” as weed but just calms the nervous system like a warm bath. I can’t really do weed anymore anyway so I’m very grateful to have found this stuff.

back in november i was explaining to my therapist a very common anxious thought pattern i have where i convince myself that people i pass on the street are judging me or secretly having a conversation about me and he told me i might want to consider starting a course of antidepressants. this didn't make me feel crestfallen, quite the opposite--i have a serious anxiety disorder and it was comforting to hear that the best solution for me might be chemical, but for several reasons ssris were and are a last resort. my second to last resort? a psilocybin microdosing regimen! i can't say it helped all that much, but it did make a difference when i needed it. a buddy once told me about a trip he had off 5g of shrooms. he felt his sense of self dissolve and suddenly he was one with the world. then he sobered up and concluded that he didn't get anything out of that trip which you can't get out of lower doses. the same can be said for my experience of microdoses. whether it's .5g or 5g the fungus will help you. i tried out an acid microdose the other day and i think i prefer it--psilocybin had the potential for anxiety, bodily discomfort, and muddled thoughts, acid felt clear, energetic, and more extroverted. these substances are known to be physically benign, and while higher dose trips are known to be mentally dangerous, these low doses can only be beneficial. it's ultimately just fun, and having fun is often therapeutic. in the spring i think i'll take a small dose of shrooms and hang out at the park on the weekends.

I have had anxiety so bad and suffer from stage fright at times, so I either face it by force or I take this prescription lmao. I already have general anxiety, so this is my reality.

Antidepressants have worked in the past to dig me out of acute depression, but my big monster is the anxiety. A daily beta blocker for the anxiety has helped me work on what I need to in therapy. A process still but getting somewhere.

Whether it’s something actually productive or a deep internet rabbit hole, sometimes you just gotta give yourself over to the task at hand and enjoy the ecstasy of deep focus. We’re locked in now.

A classic flavor combination that‘s worth a reminder as the weather starts to warm up. Good quality prosciutto or jamón ibérico and fresh juicy melon. I just had some today and forgot what I had been missing out on.

Is there anything sweeter than seeing the green and white lamp of a subway entrance, or highway exit number that’s your exit, or any other landmark you know like the back of your hand because seeing it means you’re just one turn away from being home? No there is not!
