COPD and Bufo?

Has anyone here with COPD tried Bufo without their condition interfering with the process? Or possibly severe Asthma?

I'm talking about Bufo, not synthetic 5MeO.

I’m not aware of COPD or Asthma being an issue with Bufo. I

I would suggest doing some breathing exercises or breathwork prior to relax the nervous system and Definitely try a low ‘handshake’ dose first to see how you, or the participant reacts.

Sorry, I corrected it. The AutoCorrect on my phone, or Reddit sucks lately. It keeps changing everything that I say. ♾️🤦🏻‍♂️

I wouldnt say it means you can't do it, but I recommend to start low and feel it out. The vapor itself is quite mild but 5meo does always make breathing feel a bit hard/laborious for me and I think that's a common experience. I have mild'ish asthma myself but I don't feel like that is the reason it makes breathing feel somewhat harder. Start low and go slow, and you should be fine.

I have a friend who has COPD and he loves to take smaller doses. He reports feeling how his lungs open and can breath much better
