“The only thing that works for me is low dose LSD or MDMA (but not MDA)”
“Two or three tabs later and some really strange trips, nobody I used to know can recognize me since I’ve changed so much for the better.”
“occasionally microdose psilocybin or LSD, which mostly does nothing, but sometimes I have a day where I feel incredible”
“microdosing lsd gives me a bit of an energy boost... but I find that I'm very distractible on it”
