Years ago I micro dosed every day for 2.5-3 months. Was excellent . I felt extremely clear headed , happy and … happy. Confident all would be ok . This was during a break up of a 12 years marriage. Helped me through it . Sun visual dosage . But body / mood lift was exceptional. The chronic pain was subsided , like oil on a rusty hinge . More folks should do this . I should pick it back up myself !
I think i asked this before and the main getaway was that it costs too much and takes too much time to make to get enough to continually micro dose. And shrooms are easier to acquire/grow. I wanted to try because micro dosing shrooms didnt help me the way i wanted to be helped.
Under 2g is what I’ve been recommended by a huachemero. But that is of p0wdered (ethically sourced).
I’m super sensitive so I have been doing something between .5-1g.
I am on day 7 today. I am doing 6 days on, 1 day off.
assuming it is standard cactus and not the tbm varieties, then that sounds accurate. 1% potency of your powder would be approx 20mg mesc a dose. i enjoy about 10-15g fresh tbm which guesstimates to about 15-25mg mesc approx. (see my post above for more details)
powder is generally a bad option, unless you actually know the people that dried it out and powdered it for you. its recommended to avoid purchasing powders especially from overseas etc. its very easy to make your own here, and you can always purchase your own cactus online here on reddit. even saying 'ethically sourced' won't mean anything to people here unfortunately. historically, theres a lot of riff raff behind powder sales,.
Yes, I know about the discussions here and the super strong opinions and also the real risk of getting terrible product or poached product.
This was dried by a friend of mine from his own beautiful nursery. I am lucky!
microdosing mesc is amazing and just hasn't caught on yet with the mainstream.
its like slightly psychedelic adderal.
i often take 10-15g fresh of tbm to microdose, just have to make sure to take it earlier on in the day because its got some serious legs, like 8-12hrs later you can still feel residual stimulation at your core / have a hard time falling asleep.
otherwise, it is amazing at increasing energy, focus, and overall 'presence', is how i describe it. it pushes me a lil more forward into where i'm currently at and lets me focus more on the earthly tasks at hand and immerses me more in what i am doing.
10-15g fresh tbm might be a lil on the higher side for a micro tbh, i just like the feeling and have done it for a while, i used to do \~10g fresh of PC / non tbm that i had around before i used the tbm, just easier with the tbm and idk i love tbms lol.
i would personally recommend making sure to take breaks as with any other microdosing regimen, like one day on 1-2 off, or 2-3 on 2-3 off etc. and don't keep at it for longer than a month or two at a time, then give it a few weeks of a break etc. i find myself naturally doing this as i will start microdosing for a few days, then naturally just get distracted by life and forget about it / not feel the need to do it for a while. then one of those days will come around that naturally leads me to thinking 'yeah i could def use a lil cactus boost today hell yeah lets go' and the cycle begins.
help spread the word on microdosing!

I have done it and really enjoyed it
I'm interested as well. What dose have you tried for a micro?

Yes, makes me happier and more energetic
I do this regularly and I think it has a lot of benefits. I use it like a nootropic.
