I've been depressed for three decades and nothing I've tried so far has worked, but I'll be stone cold dead before they put fucking chips in my brain. /oldmanyellsatcloud.jpg

Chronic depression since a traumatic event trigger in 1989 here. They can shove those chips up their own arse.

Depressed ever since puberty when I realised that Hollywood isn't real life.

Mega dose of mushrooms. Have you really tried everything? Micro dosing as well?

[–] Kyrgizion@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I did, but long ago. Problem is when you're taking ssri's/snri's, especially in large doses, mushrooms lose their effect. Taking psylocibin on these meds doesn't do anything, you don't even get visuals anymore, only a mild euphoria at best.

The point is not visuals, though I know what you mean. The point is to gain the introspection and Brain chemistry changes. Micro dosing less than . 5 grams daily for short periods NOT LONGTERM, are very effective control vs SSRIs. Large mega doses are where the real changes happen. I highly recommend significant research and carrful planning if you choose this route. Safety. Trip sitters. Be safe. There has been major changes in PTSD war veterans and all sorts if mental health issues.
