Just speaking for myself, I started with 3 grams and nothing happened. Then 4 and I had mild visual hallucinations. It was at that point that the feels of depression evaporated. I've used mushrooms now three times and each time was a reset of my emotions. I cannot emphasize enough the completely 180 degree turn this has had on my life.

THank you for your concern, but after 23 different pharmaceuticals with wildly varying, and oftentimes detrimental effect, I no longer have the patience. I strongly urge people who have severe depression to investigate psilocybin treatment, whether self or through a medical provider. ASAP.

I also learned that there is now a Ketamine nasal spray that is showing amazing benefits of depression, and is now being covered by insurance.
