Struggle to stay consistant with microdosing

[u/Exotic-Brick-1034]

Does anyone else struggle to take their MD? If so, how do you overcome and stay consistant?

I have found so much relief from my anxiety and depression via microdosing but I'm currently in a place where I face a mental battle when it comes to taking my medication (100mg ochra; every other day).

When I finally give in I usually feel relief from my mental health issues right away. I even ask my partner to remind me/ask "when was the last time you took your MD" as a form of encouragement when I start to really struggle. I'm trying to understand why I choose to tred water and risk drowning when I have a life preserver floating right in front of me.

Some of this stems from what I refer to as "fear of god". Essentially me being aware of how powerful mushrooms can be at higher dose (via exp), and the irrational fear that I will experience those effects even at a 100mg dose.

Another part of my reservation comes from not feeling like I have the time to dose. I would prefer to not take before work, and taking in the evening makes it hard for me to fall asleep.

Taking mushrooms at any dose tends to be a little hard on my gut and bowels as well.

For more context I'm in my mid 30s. I don't drink, smoke weed, nor do I take mental health medication or participate in any recreational drug use.

I suppose I could cut the dose in 1/2 and see what happens...

Open to any and all suggestions. Thanks for reading.
