I had stupid risk in AMZN which colored my outlook. I could right a check for the strip mall where his shitty little coffee shop is located.
In truth, it seems that "trading" while high could make the game less stressful. You mean do not type while high. Difference there. Smoke it up, dude!
If you happen to pass through southern Colorado this summer, I've got a spot for all the P. cubensis (and A. muscaria, if you like those) you could ever want. Oddly, despite being a major mycology geek/fungivore, I've never indulged in either - although I keep meaning to "one day soon". I've seen quite a bit of the research, and there are some really impressive results with relief of anxiety and depression in terminal care - but I haven't yet seen anything reliable on neuroplasticity or neurogenesis. Shitloads of subjective info that I do trust from friends who use it to get high on, but that doesn't exactly count.

Awesome - thanks! P.S. Notable: "Mice injected with low doses of PSOP extinguished cued fear conditioning significantly more rapidly than high-dose PSOP [...]" This replicates the results from a lot of other research; low doses have a greater effect in a number of scenarios. Dammit, now I'm going to have to take the time to try it out.
another perspective: https://elifesciences.org/articles/62878 I wonder if 'placebo effect' can cause neurogenesis..not in mice probably
Hard to say... we tried surveying the mouse demographic that uses psilocybins recreationally, but they couldn't be arsed to put down the plate of brownies and get off the couch. [shrug] I guess the science on this vital issue will have to remain cloudy. (Sorry about the thread drift, dest... we're just entertaining ourselves while waiting for more good stuff. )
