Do you have to tell people that you microdose?

[paradiseengineering]

Hi there!

I have been microdosing with mostly mushrooms for a while now. When I take a microdose (0.2g) I feel more clear headed, more emotionally connected and get more creativity. Its a very smal subtle boost, and i feel pretty much completely sober while being on it. 

I have mentioned microdosing to most of my friends that do psychedelics and they dont care if I do it. One of my roomates have never tripped and he is one of my best friends He knows that I trip sometimes (and he is OK with it), but I have never told him that I microdose.

Sometimes when I microdose I get this guilty feeling that im ingesting "drugs" and that im not completely open about it to my roomate ablout it. I have often thought about telling him, but it just feels so akward to do. He is really open-minded, and most likely I think he would be cool with it, but I also have a fear that it might make him a bit worried or uncomfortable since he have never tried psycedelics or wants to try it himself.

 

I need some advice here! I want to follow my values to be honest and open, but I also dont want to make him uncomfortable or worried. What do you think is the right thing to do?

I know right! I take a lot of suppliments and I dont tell people this either. But I get this nagging feeling that im somehow dishonest. Seems like I should stop thinking so much haha

If you have the sensation that you are being dishonest, you are being dishonest. It's the only way to know it in my opinion

I think it's not that big of a problem, but I don't know your room mate. Have you tried contemplating on that feeling of guilt? Sit down and sink into that guilt. Simply observe it for a while. You can tell him afterwards, but you might as well learn something from that guilt.

What will happen if you tell him?

What will happen if you don't tell him?
