There's some good news! So much for reefer madness.

Like coffee, it always seemed like something I should like, but alas, I never did.

Mushrooms on the other hand helped more than my brief abortive attempt with therapy. Now that the statute of limitations since my last use has long since passed, I don't have to worry about that now ;-)

My internist and psychologist both recommended I continue using cannabis as I have been successfully treating my ADD/ADHD with it, though we are all in a no-med/no-rec state.

Since I don't drink much anymore, I do find a microdose or two of mushrooms to have a similar result to 2-3 drinks. Awesome replacement.

I've never microdosed, but I find a large dose of mushrooms to be radically different than a large dose of alcohol.
