    Idk I’ve found shrooms to really help with my depression. Obviously with mental illness you should be careful about it more so than usual though

      A close friend of mine, in his late 70s, was experiencing increasingly uniform, flat moods. This happens sometime to older people, due to neurotransmitter depletion. He microdosed on shrooms for a month and was back to his old, vibrant self for the better part of a year afterwards.

      Another single-person study, but I give this anecdata a bit more weight because I know the guy well. If that’s a placebo effect, I still want some.
