This week I’m sharing a short video with some background info on Albert Hofmann’s discovery of LSD and his ‘intentional’ acid trip way back on April 19, 1943.

Hofmann later explored a variety of psychoactive compounds and found that they could be potent tools for our evolution and healing.

What about prescription medication interactions with psilocybin?

Some anti-depressants are thought to decrease the efficacy of psilocybin.

Some people find that anti-depressants, like SSRIs for example, leave them feeling flat, numb or emotionally blunted. This often inspires them to look at microdosing magic mushrooms. If this is the case for you, you should certainly consider tapering off of antidepressants before or while microdosing under the supervision of your doctor. You can check out Dr. Ben Malcolm’s site for helpful information on tapering.
