Entrepreneur sharing insights on psilocybin, mental health, and the journey from SSRIs to microdosing.
Nothing is more terrifying than the fear of facing your own mind.

SSRIs may blunt the lows—but they also dull the highs.

And if you ever try to come off, it can take years for your nervous system to find balance again—if it ever does.

How many people truly understand what they’re getting into when they start these medications?

Microdosing is a toolkit for self-discovery:

Old habits: Challenged
Self-doubt: Softened
New perspectives: Unlocked
Joy: Rediscovered

Small steps toward a better mindset.

I’m not anti-SSRI, I just wish doctors could better understand how difficult they are to taper.

After 15 years I finally had enough.

It was through my own research and support I learned how to get through the process.

Can anyone else relate?

So many people I know are ‘microdose curious’—wondering how it works, if it’s effective, or even how to start.

I bet there are countless people who’d try it if they had the right info.

Microdosing shouldn’t be a mystery; it’s time we open up the conversation.

Many think a mystical experience with psychedelics is the key to healing—but studies suggest true progress often comes from something simpler: relaxation.

Letting go might matter more than the mystical.

SSRIs:
❌ Blunt your emotions.
❌ Feel nothing.
❌ Bury the root cause.

Psilocybin:
✅ Expand your emotions.
✅ Feel everything.
✅ Explore the root cause.

Microdosing is not a "magic pill".

Microdosing requires intent.

Microdosing requires reflection.

Simply put - microdosing requires work.
