I really like the radical experimental approach of his whole project. He is really pushing into new uncharted territory in many ways.

He could have simply taken a SSRI

Haha 5g dried mushrooms daily, typical technocratic syntheticists. Good luck with the experiment... its not going to last long.

How about 5g of 5-MeO-DMT per month?

That's what I tested.

Bryan Johnson gonna turn into the next famous spiritual guru at this rate.

A coomer ? Ahah yes that’s true 😏but don’t see the link with what I wrote.

A SSRI has a very close effect to psilocybin; I have a friend on Sertraline who sometimes feels like being on light dose of 4 HO MET, a product close to psilocybin he tried.

When we think of SSRIs we think of guys who can no longer ejaculate lol, and when we think of psilocybin we think of “spirituality”; but in the end it comes to the same it increases serotonin neurotransmition.

Note that the health and sports world is full of exaggeration, even bro science and magical thinking.

I hope not.

I edited.

They have similar effects yea.

@Schizophonia Just a joke 🤣 

[Rigel]

That’s an interesting perspective to go tripping with. I wonder what the data for longevity is going to show. We def don’t trip for longevity over here.

@Schizophonia Saying an SSRI is "like psilocybin" is very wrong. SSRIs modulate baseline serotonin slowly and blunt extremes, while Psychedelics actively and acutely reshape experience. SSRIs often dull emotional experience, while psychedelics often expand it dramatically. its like the polar opposite in what they actually do mechanically. Sertraline might just be very subtle serotonergic effects, but it’s nowhere near the full experiential or emotional opening that mushrooms provide.

On a personal note... I've seen people on SSRI's go from regular, slightly depressed humans, to straight up zombies with no emotions whatsoever, and if and when they finally get off them, well then you will see the full brain damage show it head.

My mother used to be a very emotional woman, she cried a lot and was very sensitive, over time the family convinced her to take these drugs, after two years she was almost a completely different person, especially after she got off them, very irritable and angry, rarely cried or showed any empathy or emotion, it was really sad to see, and our relationship changed a lot.

I actually helped her come back to normal with mushrooms, but still she is not 100% and she had over 10 trips now in about 10 years of gradual change of diet and lifestyle and natural therapies just to help her become human again. Mushrooms are almost the complete opposite, they actually enliven the person, they are known to rewire synapses and bad-programming in the brain and CNS, they become far more empathetic, emotional, the life and color comes back to their faces and aura is vibrant.

I've seen this similar pattern with a few of my family members, some friends, and even my ex girlfriend. I only trust what nature grows and actually provides results where people don't have to keep using it for a mere treatment, rather you take it once in a while and it helps actually get to the root of the disease. I think the entire drug system is sick and twisted because I have seen families and relationships destroyed.

The same system that profits of these drugs does everything in their power to keep psychedelics and plants that actually work illegal. If you haven't figured this out already...

Not daily. Monthly.

So he takes every month one big 5 g dried shroom dose? Is he insane? He will stop after his first real bad trip and getting a bad trip on 5 g is pretty likely.

@Ramasta9

No the only psychedelics that significantly increase emotions in most people are MDMA and LSD because they are directly catecholaminergic.
Mushrooms tend to make people sedative and numb, sometimes anxious, depending on your genetics.
People also take large doses of mushrooms, which tends to indirectly increase the neurotransmission of glutamame and dopamine.

You'll see that a medium/high dose of antidepressants is similar to a small dose of mushrooms (among other things).

Just as a small dose of barbiturates is similar to a medium/high dose of benzodiazepines.

You're a daft lad. SSRIs don't regularly lead to mystical experiences (unless you're manic or intrinsically mystical), they lead to impotence and other bullshit, and it's about the long-term not immediate effects (neuroplasiticity and sheet), besides, what mouse study has shown increased longevity from SSRIs? And mystical experiences have neurological correlates and create lasting effects.

You shouldn't become aggressive since I'm not attacking you. Don't see my persona as a threat to your point of view/your toys, but as something to potentially integrate; 1+1=3.

Because of the dosage/difference in pharmacology, you should be able to function on SSRIs. It's not uncommon for people to experience some ecstasy and strange behavior on antidepressants if the dose is high enough; this even sometimes happens with tricyclic antidepressants, even though they are the ones that least activate 5HT2A and are the most sedating.

Psychedelics too decrease HPTA axis but it’s not significant because you only do a trip here and there.

SSRI also increases neuro plasticity and has benefits effects for the brain.
