We\u2019re here to explore how microdosing can have a positive impact with people who have PTSD.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-pale-cyan-blue-color has-text-color\" id=\"h-current-ptsd-treatment\">Current PTSD Treatment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>PTSD or Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder is a mental health condition that develops after a person experienced a frightening, impactful event. Current treatments for PTSD are parallel to treating depression. Normally, treatments are a combo of specialized therapies and heavy meds like Zoloft, Prozac, Paxil, and Effexor. There are two downsides to this. Firstly, current antidepressants do not work with <strong><em>at least<\/em><\/strong> \u2153 of people who need them. And, the side effects of these medications may include: nausea, weight gain, fatigue, irritation, and increased anxiety.\u00a0<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a result, psycho-researchers have supported ketamine as a potential therapy for stress trauma. As ketamine rises in popularity, a key issue has come up. Patients who take ketamine at standard low doses are hallucinating. Therefore, the potential to live your day to day AND cope with stress trauma with ketamine isn\u2019t possible.\u00a0<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, many turn to other ways, like microdosing to treat their PTSD. A rising popularity is microdosing psilocybin. Psilocybin is a psycho-active compound found in magic mushrooms and magic truffles. It is one of the most non-toxic drugs in the world. Therefore, there are no side effects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-pale-cyan-blue-color has-text-color\" id=\"h-what-should-i-expect-from-microdosing-to-help-treat-my-ptsd\">What should I expect from microdosing to help treat my PTSD?\u00a0\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A psilocybin microdose shouldn\u2019t have a psychedelic change in moods, mindset, or nature. (Remember you\u2019re not supposed to be tripping). The effects should be <strong><em>subtle<\/em><\/strong> but <strong><em>felt.<\/em><\/strong> That is why we recommend a dosage of 1 gram of our fresh magic truffles.\u00a0\u00a0<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you begin microdosing psilocybin, be mindful and process your experience in a journal. We think it\u2019s important to journal, because microdosing is not a cure for all&#8230;especially for treating PTSD. People who\u2019ve been diagnosed with PTSD and take the microdose route often pair this method with psychotherapy. With the right patience and inner work, the changes are little to little. Just like any therapeutic work.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-pale-cyan-blue-color has-text-color\" id=\"h-what-should-i-feel-from-microdosing\">What should I feel from microdosing?\u00a0\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Effects of Microdosing Psilocybin include:\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Increased energy\u00a0\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Increased Focused<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Empathy\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Self-Awareness\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Insight\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Creativity\u00a0\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Reduced depression and anxiety \u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Improved Mood\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you ingest your microdose, it will take 1-2 hours until you notice the effects. The direct effects of psilocybin microdosing is 6-8 hours. Though, you will feel the \u201cafterglow\u201d for 24 hours. Compared to LSD microdosing, psilocybin effects are shorter duration. Which means it will not interfere with your sleep.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-pale-cyan-blue-color has-text-color\" id=\"h-psilocybin-vs-antidepressants\">Psilocybin vs. Antidepressants\u00a0\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It has been reported that after several cycles of microdosing, people can eventually stay off antidepressants. The difference between antidepressants and psilocybin boils down to how the brain responds. Psilocybin increases emotional connection, which is the opposite of what antidepressants do. Increased emotional connection means the person is more insightful and emphatic. These qualities can help a person cope with their stress related traumas. Antidepressants only \u201cmask\u201d your emotions, which in the long run doesn\u2019t help.
