Microdosing: Day 24

I was very conscientious in watching my thoughts today, noticing any negative thoughts and forcing myself to shift them into something positive. I tried identifying the thought and choosing a new thought, a more helpful…

Microdosing: Day 21

I honestly don’t know if these pills are doing anything lol. I’ve been feeling kinda shitty the last few days. Today started off the same: low motivation, finding it hard to get any work done….

Microdosing: Day 20

Microdosing: Day 9

Day 9 of microdosing and day 2 of my fast! Again, no noticeable effects of the psychedelics. My mood has been stable throughout the day. The only difference is that I’m thinking about food a…
