  1. Used to be mommas little helper, now shrooms.

  2. I had 2 heart surgeries and a coil iny head. M arijuana and shrooms definitely need to be legal throughout the US. I cannot stress how much it helps me and many more

  3. Until they find new man that "available emotionally"

  4. Of course they'd have some no name psychiatrist from John's hopkins to try and discredit it

  5. Took 1.5g lemon tek and my desire for nicotine completely dissapeared after.

  6. Micro dosing has worked well for me, but not every couple days, every couple months, to half a year I’ll take some in moderation that I grow myself.

  7. I have heard good things about this for the past few years and really want to try it, but I have no idea where to get it and how much to take.

  8. Kratom works better

  9. 😒😒 when it’s white moms it’s ok.

  10. First world problems!

  11. even store bought mushrooms have a calm feeling, helps the eyes

  12. Psychedelics definitely has potential to deal with health issues like anxiety and depression , I would like to try them but it's hard to source them here

  13. This just confirms that women complain way to much

  14. It’s legal in most of Europe

  15. BS you build an almost instant tolerance it might work for a week but after that it's placebo. 5 dried grams like Terence said once or twice a year.

  16. Microdosing is a real benefit for tons of folks. It magically removes many of those negative thoughts that have no basis in reality, and it helps boosts our excitement for day to day activities.

    Experiment has confirmed it for decades now. That guy saying that there’s no scientific evidence is in the wrong and should take some himself.

  17. Let's take medication out of the hands of big pharmacies and just grow what we need for medicine. The side effects crapshoot that is pharmaceuticals is ridiculous. How about bringing back the art of the herbalist?

  18. She better not get caught driving.

  19. I have anxiety and never have taken anything to deal with it

  20. If you can not endure your "loved ones" 24/7 …

  21. Are Psychedelics Now a Media-Recommended Strategy for Managing Anxiety?

  22. Her kid isn't a little kid. Make her/teach her to do stuff on her own.

  23. may as well tell people to take weed or cocaine on micro-dosage… ridiculous…

  24. Magic mushrooms work, Corrupt Corporate pharmaceuticals don’t.

  25. Micro dosing is amazing for SOOOO many health and mind issues. Also makes long mountains desert hikes a true pleasure

  26. Sometimes I miss him.

  27. If you don’t high, than what’s the problem.

  28. Stay tuned for the next episode of :
    "Hard life of suburban moms"

  29. White minivan moms are the craziest.

  30. Has he READ recent #PeerReview Research on #Psilocybin & #MicroDosing which all clearly state the benefits as for large doses help #PTSD, #Alcoholism, severe #depression, etc. But both clearly have show positive effects in the brain.
