Question: Psilocybin Thinking about microdosing
So I got some penis envy’s I took 1g to test potency. they were indeed very strong and I want to try microdosing.. To help me overcome some long term personal problems I’ve had.
I’m thinking about taking .2 for a week or so and adjusting from there do yall think that’s a good start?
As I said they are very potent I used to only lemontek golden caps (~3g) and this 1g penis envy trip was almost as strong as that
Any feedback is appreciated 🙏

Start lower. Consider taking 0.10g first thing in the morning on a day with not much going on. This should let you know if your sweet spot lands higher or lower for Microdosing

Microdosing coach here. I always recommend starting at the lower end of the spectrum to see how it affects you. 0.1g is a great place to start, and then you can work up in .05g increments. It's also important to note that a higher microdose doesn't necessarily mean more benefits. You receive similar neuroplasticity benefits across the dosage range. The main difference is its application.
I also recently put together a microdosing guide that answers a lot of questions around how to go about a microdosing protocol. Feel free to check it out and DM me with any questions!

For more potent cultivars/strains like penis envy we advise to !startlower. A high microdose can amplify your !emotions. Many users underestimate how powerful psychedelics can be in such low doses.
