Psychedelics are just an exceptional mental health breakthrough. It's quite fascinating how effective they are against depression and anxiety. Saved my life.
Can you help with the reliable source I would really appreciate it. Many people talk about mushrooms and psychedelics but nobody talks about where to get them. Very hard to get a reliable s0urce here in Australia. Really need!
Yes, blizmyco. I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD and addiction and Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today.
Is he on instagram?
Yes he is. blizmyco
Microdosing helped me get out of the pit of my worst depressive episode, a three year long episode, enough to start working on my mental health.
"Cordyceps can't control a human mind." This is exactly what a cordyceps would say.
“How do you do fellow humans, I am totally not a cordyceps fungi. Anyways, wanna buy some mind control?”
Made me think of Futurama. "Today's mission is for all of you to go to the Brain Slug Planet." "What do we do there?" "Just walk around not wearing a helmet."
@@3fast5you😂 👏
As a mycologist. Very funny
Cordyceps would say that and mean it. She didn't control our mind. Just our entire reality.
Trusting pharmaceutical companies is like putting your head in a lions mouth and paying to do it
Micro-dosing does not usually involve anything "highly dangerous and highly addictive". Also narcotics and psychedelics are not at all the same.
Do you not consider amphetamines as "highly dangerous or highly addictive"? American military has been micro dosing troops since WW2 and American medical "professionals", and I use that term lightly, have been dosing children with amphetamines for atlas 50 years. I and several others are proof these practices produce drug addicts.
That is highly dependent on what you are micro dosing now isn't it?
You could micro dose meth if you wanted to. Do not know why you would. Just that micro dosing is exactly what it means.
Not all pysvhoactives are good either.
@dianapennepacker6854 but in 2024 when people say micro dose they are normally referring to psychedelics. True that some psychedelics r very bad and can actually kill you. 😊
It pretty much goes without saying that micro dosing refers to psychedelics
"goes without saying"... Sure. But my post was because in the video he says that people do it with "highly dangerous... Etc" substances and that just isn't true.

Hey, Forty two here
*I was joking I’ve been watching since I was 10 I’m 17 now, I’m not a newbie
It’s thoughty 2 incoming…😂
That's what my captions always say 😂
@@elisexempressI think that's what he actually says, that's the joke.
Go read Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy
I’m 42 and six ahead of you
Around 1995 or so I spent a year micro dosing psilocybin mushrooms. Not enough to get blasted but enough to lightly feel its effects and still maintain my daily routine. I do wish I had kept notes about the changes I experienced but they were all good at a micro dosing volume. It resolved some depression issues I had been wrestling with, it ended my dependence on alcohol and other drugs in order to face the day. It changed my entire outlook on life and the world around me and the results stuck with me when I finally stopped dosing. No withdrawals, no cravings I just stopped doing it one day because I felt my journey had run its course. I think that more people could benefit from this but legality probably stops them along with all the horror stories. I am not saying to go do it, but if you do and you keep it at a micro level you may see more positive change than you expect.
Micro dosing wasn’t a thing in 1995 how’d you come by that. Did you just think to yourself I’ll just take tiny bit here see what it will do. Back then they had no clue they were good for you yet
@@JaredFarrer Microdosing has been around longer than you or I have been around. In the last 10-15 years it got a name attached to it and all the cool kids in silicon valley took the stigma off it but it was always around long before that.
"I'm not telling you to do it, but here's why you totally should"
@@iLoveBigKnockers lol I mean I am realistic about it and know that it isn't the best choice for everyone. I also know there are a good number for people out there that would greatly benefit from something like this. Considering they are now doing Ketamine therapy and it is having great results in the right situations I wouldn't think this would be too far out there and probably safer than ketamine overall even though they do different things and affect people differently.
I appreciate your comment. Pretty soon I am gonna start a microdosing regimen. Grey market in CO. I’m still a bit ignorant. Biggest barrier here for me is $$. I don’t just know a guy so I’m going grey market. $100 a month is a lot.
My wife can remember every mistake that I’ve ever made and every word that I’ve ever said over the last 40 years. She reminds me all the time. 😂
hahaha so funny i hate my wife too

Funny mine too. She’s able to actually time travel and change what she said or I said or even did at a moments notice just to win an argument. I wish I had her super powers.
@@monochr0m Glad to see this is the first comment. Modern "humor" is garbage.
@@Acetyl53 lol was that about my comment? Wasn’t meant to be a rofl moment it was hyperbole. Was actually pissed writing it because that’s literally how it feels with their damn ability to change story’s at any moments notice just to win.
07:33 lol what, psychedelic aren't highly addictive, they have anti-addictive effects, though you would know off all people. Their studies on how psilocybe can help with alcohol addiction and other addiction
Yeah... Holding a mushroom while saying all those things.... THAT was just WRONG! But then he goes on to say CORRECT things... which makes it WORSE.
Lsd and shrooms aren't particularly dangerous either
I actually went on a psilocybin retreat in Jamaica. Had three doses. I absolutely recommend it for anyone over the age of 21 that checks with their doctor first. At my age, 62, I don’t intend to ever take it again. There was absolutely no addiction worries and it was highly therapeutic. Not actually that much fun as I was working through a lot of trauma.
Came here to say the same thing! I like his channel, but that comment was such nonsense.
Psychedelics are 100% addictive, how do I know ? I was addicted to them for almost a year.
Thank you for pointing out the greater value in eating good food as opposed to popping some pills. Thank you for pointing out it is the early days of this research, and results are very mixed. Thank you for making it clear it is a very complex subject.
Lions Mane is a God send to old farts like me with memory problems. I was amazed that it worked so well. I'm 70 years old and couldn't remember people's names, even my two dogs' names until I started on the Lion's Mane. After a few days of taking it, a fog lifted from my brain so I could also think more clearly. Walking the dogs and any exercise you can do also helps a lot!
tell me more about your experience w/ lions mane. how did u dose? what is your source?
From what company was your Lion's mane, what dose? Thanks
I know a spot where it grows in the forest.... Pretty cool looking... I have made a tea, but, never tried it long term.
lions mane psylocybin & niacin together are best according to Paul Stamets.
Careful with these nootropics. I once knew this guy named Paul who used a spice called Melange. Dude got so smart he decided to start a holy war.

You are so evil 😂😂😂
LOL! He's NOT the Messiah, he's a very naughty boy!
As an Indian, a few more herbs (nootropics) are Bhringraj, Shankha pushpi (pea flower), and Giloy/Guduchi.. Not only do they have amazing brain effects but they also have a few other health benefits. And they have been used in Ayurveda for thousands of years.
Thanks 😊
Do you eat this regularly?
@@heyjohnsmith You can use them in prescribed amounts regularly. In fact, there are pea flower brain tonics available. There are also supplements available in India
> they have been used in Ayurveda for thousands of years
if anything that's a reason not to use them, back this up with some scientific studies. humans have been doing dumb shit for thousands of years, tradition is no reason to trust them.
@gamekash But they haven't been rigorously tested, right?
Common psychedelics are not addictive at all, and their dangers are wildly overstated
source?
@@jpeero If you're genuinely curious it's not hard to find answers. It's worth noting though that, to an uninformed person, my unsourced assertion is equally valid as Some TH-cam Guy's unsourced assertion.
Yep I have eaten shit tons and I feel great.
@@jpeero Me.
John Hopkins research hospital says they aren’t and are working on funded research to use them for helping people recover from addiction to harder substances.
Psilocybin is very much an interesting drug, many say it opens doorways in your mind. Two things I experienced while on it.
I could access memories of events that happened in the distant past of my life, things that I had long forgotten about, it was astounding ! And, to my surprise, and my brother who was watching me, I stood in front of a full length mirror and I could access facial muscles that I never knew I had ! After about ten minutes of this, I had completely changed the actual shape of my forehead and eye lids, my brother was freaking out more than I was. All this is really not that surprising, because it gets neurons firing that are otherwise dormant, so yes, interesting things can happen with certain drugs. To me, Psilocybin was a very very interesting drug, because it allows the mind to operate in ways that are normally not available, the exploration of the self with this stuff was absolutely fascinating !
I've done shrooms before. I've also (unlike most people who are big shroom "enlightened" people) been through a legit "near death experience", though there was nothing "near" about it but idk what else to call it besides dying in hospital and being brought back. And let me tell you, it's not even remotely the same.
Sounds like you were literally just hallucinating lol but hey if it makes you & your life better & happy, more power to ya 🙏🏼
@@shy404usernotfoundhave you tried them since
@@shy404usernotfound Ego death and dying irl are obviously not the same, but thanks for telling us.
Shrooms are helping millions of people to a better health, calling it "just hallucinating" is such an arrogant statement. I seriously doubt you tried them.
@shy404usernotfound Ego death happens quite often with LSD, so I’m sure a high dose of psilocybin could do the same, since both are 5-HT2A agonists which is what mediates their psychedelic effects. It’s terrifying, but once you come back to reality, you have a new perspective about your life. That terror gives you appreciation for being alive, but it doesn’t always work in a positive way for everyone.
When taking Lions Mane -
1. Don't take it every day or you'll likely experience burnout.
2. Make sure it's either USDA certified organic or EU certified organic or you might get some that are grown in areas with heavy pollutants.
3. Abdominal discomfort.
4. Skin irritation or rash.
5. Negative reaction with other medications.
6. Reduced blood sugar.
7. Other allergic reactions.

I have MS, a neuro degenerative disease, that destroys myelin on the nerve pathways in the brain. My neuro doc told me to drink more caffeine, to help stave off "sundown" syndrome, where my brain slows down over the day, making the symptoms worse by late afternoon. It works. It's not a cure, and it only helps with symptoms for a couple of hours in the afternoon, but it's better than struggling to remember my passwords by 4pm.
Have you tried lion's mane?
@@gagi96 Not yet, but I'm going to bring it up next time I see him.
@@thehangmansdaughter1120Also ask your doctor about ketamine therapy. It has been shown to greatly improve symptoms in people suffering from MS and its becoming much much more common now a days. Something like low dose Spravato potentially or Ketalar (spelling?) Perhaps even a high dose IV session every few months.
Interesting, I know dementia can cause sundown syndrome, I had no idea that MS caused that as well. I hope you’re coping alright. It’s got to be tough.
Adderall also works for this.
Claiming shrooms are highly addictive shattered my confidence in the competence of this video.
highly dangerous is a stretch, extremely addictive is just outright wrong. they are literally used to combat addiction.
Actually though, even the most basic research would've shown its actually used to cure addiction and isn't considered addictive whatsoever.
And right before that it was claimed that "meditation only removes more time from your day."
Meditation can provide many benefits to the mind. It's just not as quick and easy as taking a pill. Good results often take time and energy.
Right? Like lets just state opinion as fact. Mushrooms are SO not addicting, and hardly habit forming.
LSD, can be psychologically addictive, because of how many perceivable benefits there are for most. 😬
@@ToastmelonProductionsYeah the claims about meditation were wild. There's a reason why almost every doctor recommends it now a days. It's been proven to help with all sorts of different things, especially stress and anxiety.
Piracetam is in my experience a decent nootropic. It's effect on focus, memory and energy is mild at low dosage, so is it's side effects. In my experience the stronger the effect is with a nootropic substance, the stronger the side effects are, and vise-versa.
I always found your videos to be a work of art. So visually captivating and really the animation and the pictures really go very well with all the segments of the discussion.
Magic mushrooms aren't addictive at all. They're used to TREAT addiction. 7:30.

Microdosing usually refers to taking extremely small doses of Psychedelic drugs. Psychedelic drugs (especially at microdoses, which do not cause any kind of trip or hallucination) are definitely not "highly dangerous, highly addictive"
Psychedelics are also not narcotics, but I understand that some people just use that word to refer to any and all drugs
If you blindly follow the law, then yes, apparently you're taking highly dangerous, addictive narcotics. These laws are made to "protect ourselves".
@@jelle7 yeah if the law was to protect people they'd ban all alchool consumption and smoking cigaretts since it's both of the biggest causes of death or health issues worldwide but they can tax it and make profit on the medical field with lobbying so why would they say no to the money call.
They just didn't find a way to profit off of mushrooms. It's all about money and power.
In the early 80's, it got me a prison sentence. And dummy me thought I'd just get rehab and or a fine.
Americans need to focus more on recovery and nutrition before ever considering nootropics. No point in burning the candle at both ends to not be able and enjoy the fruit of your labor as health complications surely start unveiling themselves over time.
L-Theanine decreases the probability that the pores and nervous system will absorb by allowing sizeable molecules that share bonds, allowing for dilution in a square area.
"Highly addictive" is a stupid thing to say about mushrooms who are anti-addicting
He probably doesn't know anything about them and is just going off its drug classification
lol ok zoomer.
Mushroom have a super low likelyhood for abuse and addiction. Tolerance builds super quickly and the trip isn't something most people want to live in constantly on a day to day basis.
Psychoactive mushrooms weren't even mentioned. Find something else to get offended about.
To be fair, he mentioned microdosing and the the person on screen was clearly holding a piece of shrooms.@@t.j.payeur5331
Beeb watching you for years now and i still get excited every time a new video pops up 😊 thxs for all the entertainment, knowledge, and time you've given us!
I swear by magic mushrooms. They helped me in so many ways, especially in acknowledging our spiritual nature and rejecting the idea that we are these bodies. The fear of death fell away as well and my ability to understand things in a far deeper scope.
Mushrooms work for me.

@@jerrystoner04Maybe you need to reevaluate yours. The comment clearly just says that they didn't know anything about smart drugs, not that they tried to find out about them.

Some nootropics work well. They usually get banned.
Right “noopept” is the best one I found but hard to find

The main psychedelics used for microdosing (mushrooms and lsd) are not "highly addictive". Yes, they may be abused, but that is true with anything
if psychedelic is about psychotropics
what about... noodelic rock? lol
Please see my page lol -- notice I am a music creator? I am prescribed Armodafinil
I would say it exists. I would say that nootropics heavily influence my own creative style in music, as someone who is prescribed a nootropic (Armodafinil).
I think I might start using the descriptor, "Nootropic Rock"-- so THANK YOU! Brilliant ✨️
I'd say there were already 2 categories that fit that niche: prog and new wave. Of course, you could just stick to jazz. 😎
I think it would pretty much be Progressive Metal or Math Rock!

Micro dosing mushrooms is definitely not addictive, could be dangerous with certain circumstances, but dangerous and addictive is clinically disproven
my mom loves most of these. she's a legally retired boomer who technically still works 60% in an entirely different city in a different district. she tried to get these on me, i wasnt too receptive. what i really needed was to lay off the carbs, get a grip on my addictions and most things would just improve from this alone.
but i will say this: your video has made me consider taking creatine for the first time. i've honestly seen too many meatheads recommend it to me, but now that i'm working out regularly anyway (this was ACTUALLY the last video i wanted to watch today before pullup day) and with you telling me it might help me cognitively, i will give it another shot.
btw, thanks for the hint with green tea. i've always been a big fan of it, not so much coffee.
Yeah dude I mean they are fun once in a while for some people but I have never experienced much of any effect after taking them. Maybe I did a good job growing then I really dono but hey, no hang overs, no harm no foul right? I guess? I dono
@@mathewhex7045 what are you talking about?
I highly recommend you to take L-Carnitine too (there are 2 types: L-Carnitine-Acetate and L-Carnitine-Tartrate). L-Carnitine is absolutely safe to consume daily, your body also produces some which are mostly in your heart. It helps to keep your heart healthy and also to using fat as energy instead of muscle. Tartrate is best for pre-workout supply (20-25 mins before workout) and Acetate boost cognitive functions. Since it's full natural like Vitamin C and safe to consume (your body use max. 4 g/day, all above leave your body like for example B vitamins) these are my BFFs. (You can try BCAA and L-arginine to build muscle too.) Let me know later your experiences 🙂

Yeah, he's definitely showing his bias there. Hard to blame him though, he probably grew up during the whole "War on Drugs" propaganda that is ridiculously difficult to overcome.
Tbf, even if the video showed a guy holding mushrooms he was talking about microdosing, which encompasses more than mushrooms.

Yeh creatine will help build muscle and give u a bit more explosive power in your last few reps. It takes a month to build up in your system but you will benefit from it.
It's one of the very few substances that has actually scientific data to back up it's claims
Abuse is defined as continuing to do something that is harmul. If there is no harm involved then there is no abuse.
too much of an innocuous thing will make it harmful. I've learnt that the hard way lol
@@sweetnesscanwin589 if it's harmful, how can it be innocent?
@@Dave_of_Mordor Maybe this example will help. If you drink too much water, it will kill you, even if you pee it out. Difficult, yes, a lot of water, but that's an extremely innocuous substance
Videos are so informative, great content my friend
I get so excited every time you come out with a new video
Isn't nicotine a nootropic? Lol
It is an insecticide.
@@jeffhaskett2766 Nicotine is good for you! It's neuroprotective. However, cigarettes are carcinogenic.
Yes, it's one of the only commonly used substances that actually has compelling evidence suggesting cognitive enhancement in healthy individuals. Nicotinic acetycholine receptors, specifically a7 and a4b2 play a significant role in modulating focus and executive function.
Not a nootropic by the original definition though.
Ive done studies on nic and it like all things has benefits and negatives althought i will agree the added chemicals pair chemically with nicotince to make it more addictive anr those chemicals also are worse then nicotine @astralascendance
@@hoppy23 what are the negatives?
I have been taking Nootropil (Piracetam) for years. At first it affected the hearing part of my brain. Now I get a better memory. My friend took it and he said his eyesight got better.
Did he say that, or did he actually compare it to prior eye exams? The biggest issue with Nootropics is wanting them to work , then ending up biased. Not saying either of you is lying, just that it is very hard to really know without some heavy independent testing. A lot of the time it is just thinking it is working, leading to us spending more time studying new things, finding new hobbies, etc which lead to natural increases in neural capabilities, and we point to the nootropic rather than what we have been doing since taking them.
How did it affect the hearing part of your brain? In a good way or a bad way?
I took and can now orgasm on command.
@@HicSvntDracones Yea, placebos are oddly effective sometimes.
Joe biden is taking them. They are doing a bang up job with him
Though I would love to experience the benefits of nootropics, my coworkers would freak out at my glowing yellow eyes.
My heart DROPPED. there are nootropics in the thing I use to get off of vaping
Wow, no one complaining about AI thumbnails yet, good job everyone! Enjoy the video ❤
I commented. And I noticed it’s a different image
Been waiting on a new video from you Sir. Your videos are my sleeping material 😅
IG?
Is Jill the first? Solomon Shereshevsky memory was even MORE phenomenal and he died 7 years before Jill was born. He was tested and examined by the famous neurologist Alexander Luria. Not only did "S" have a a phenomenal autobiographical memory like Jill, but he could memorize fact, figures and equations with astonishing detail and rapidity as well.
Thank you for the vid Thoughty2 : )
Feels like I been waiting on a new video forever
Remove ai thumbnails. They are awful.
Nah man it's like the trademark for fortytwo man like you wouldn't get it man because the thumbnails are like the best part man- me as a pothead
What a stupid thing to be concerned about. Thumbnails, really?
Nah
NAH. It's never that serious
It grabbed my eye
Thank you Aaron. Great Video. I learned so much.
It's spot on at the end when he talks about a varied diet of the _original source_ is massively better than anything created in a lab.
I love your content, but I am a little saddened by the widespread use of AI generated thumbnails. My eyes glaze past them because they all look the same and soulless. There are a lot of amazing graphic designers and artists out there who make interesting thumbnails. I wish more youtubers would invest in them!
That means paying someone, unfortunately AI is making it cheaper and takes seconds 😢
u must be an artist, this picture is cool 💀
@@malikgordon1399if you want a world where humans lose their own abilities just to save time and money, that's on you. But. Be careful what you wish for.
AI is not good long term.
@@malikgordon1399 not at all, I just appreciate what people do, and not what AI can perfect.
Absolutely not. Try lions mane for a few weeks daily and it’ll convince anyone.
Best mushroom in the world in my humble opinion brother.
Can you recommend a brand and your dosage
lol can’t sleep when taking lions mane
@@enfamy_OG the brand... lions mane lmao, and dosage just chop it up and throw it in some food. you're thinking way to much about it. it's like eating normal mushrooms.
@@TheWuSlasherI'm guessing they were thinking more of a pill form.
Thanks for years of amazing content!!
The “your glowing” comment got me hahaha
9:51 this explains why when I make a drink I call "Toffee" for Tea and coffee I don't have any jitters like I normally get from straight coffee
It's called racetam
Great video Thoughty, you rule brother🙌⚡️💜
I know one thing, I'm trying to get to sleep and now you have me craving coffee! 😂😂😂
Nothing beats eating meat n veg! Simples!
thumbnails really holding down the quality imo, just weird to look at for how good every one of your videos are
All these AI images were interesting when they were new, now they just look…. Cheap
Nootropics are probably why human brains evolved the way they did separating us from the other apes.
How? People ate Brahmi or Rhodiola? Or corn with lysergin? Little mushrooms?
An old friend of mine had a memory like that, but unfortunately he didn't cope well. I think remembering everything that ever happens can cause a lot of mental stress he succumbed to alcohol. I still miss his mind
I pooped in the furnace!
Hey thoughty2 here
