That resonates a lot with me. I don't want to do any promotion of those substances (every drug, good or bad has physical and/or psychological risks involved with the user) I self-medicated with psilocybin mushrooms and also used psychological support and so far I'm free from having recurring depression (I exclude seasonal affective disorder "SAD" because I can manage symptoms easily with healthy habits without requiring any external help). My first first year of medication was really intense mentally because I had to face a lot of inner issues. I feel like I learnt a lot about the traps I used to fell into when I was depressed. I consider myself in the best form I ever been in my life. Psychedelics helped me to better adapt to the society I live and contribute to.

I just did Ayahuasca to see if it could help with my tendency for depression but it didn't do much. It was interesting though.

Makes me wonder how often you do mushrooms and how quickly you felt a positive effect?

I don't need to trip a lot. 1 trip was enough to have positive effects (I did between 10-15 trips in a 2 years interval). Those effects included a profound desire to realize myself and to better adapt to society. Mushrooms gave me a kick in the a so I was able to work on myself. It opened my eyes but I had to do all the job of rebuilding my vision of the world and determine where I'm seeing myself in that regard.
