Dose 4

2:30pm: 1g on an empty stomach, washed down with a glass of water, and then coffee around an hour later.

It's still genuinely really difficult to decipher if the microdosing is helping my productivity or if it's simply down to a change of sleeping pattern (more daylight, more time for activity, etc). One thing for sure is that I do feel better compared to how I felt before taking the first dose.

Once the blister pack is finished, I'll take the recommended break and try to compare how I felt on the doses and how I will feel off them - I feel this is the best way for a clearer comparison.

On the flipside, I've been reading more about higher dose tripping with the aim of reflecting on past traumas and philosophical thought; so I ordered 15g of Pajaritos and Atlantis (of course, I'll be calculating the dose so I don't completely lose my mind!). I'll celebrate the end of the first blister pack with a real trip, and then take a break for around a month.

Dose 3

Thurs/Fri: I'd been finding myself a little restless again in terms of wanting to do things but not finding an outlet - seems like I'm back to the initial problem? My anxiety slightly lifted in terms of overthinking things, but again I think it might be an environmental thing since my sleep pattern is human again and I can actually get outside when it's bright.

8.20am: 1g with tea.

Sidenote: I have been eating weed jelly the past three days which is helping me sleep - no idea why I've suddenly developed an urge for that - perhaps desperation?

Dose 2

Mon/Tues: Slightly less stress, but could be down to keeping occupied/new ventures and a noticable change in the weather.

I seen my doctor yesterday in regards to reaching out for a psychiatrist (see my first post for the reason) and when she asked if I done any drugs, I laughed and spilled. She was not happy and told me to stop them immediately as they'll interfere with my current medication. I won't argue about medicine with a doctor, but from what I have read this dose is simply too small to interfere with SSRIs and I am already fixated on this. If something seems wrong I will listen to my body and eliminate this. If nothing goes badly in the coming days/weeks which is related to microdosing, I'll continue with the batch before taking the recommended break.

8am: By my friends suggestion; the full 1g on an empty stomach (straight out of the fridge,) bar some morning coffee.

Personal taste, but I kind of like the smell/very mild taste of the truffles!

7:15pm: A completely normal day, and no noticeable effects. Anxious thoughts still lingering; but like my first dose day they're not taking over my mind. I managed to pay attention to an entire episode of one of my favourite shows without zoning out (!), but I don't know if that's because the show is digestible/fast paced. 

Next dose: 1g on Saturday
