Mushroom helped me

Psilocybin mushrooms are actually the best tool for consternation and melancholy

I tried micro-dosing yesterday for the first time, and I had wonderful experience. I'm someone who suffers from chronic depression, and I was simply happy, not overly ecstatic, but genuinely happy and active with my friends and family. I was even excited to get out of bed this morning.

I can honestly say psychedelics experience was probably one of the most profound and beautiful collection of moments I have ever had.

I've had severe depression, getting out of bed feels like jumping into an ice lake, eating breakfast feels like eating feces. And the intensity of these feelings can vary all over the place, you cannot plan anything because your perception of reality can change just like that. What in one second felt like a nice walk in the country, feels like a stroll down a never ending corridor, until I tried shrooms the experience is out of this world.

Psychedelic mushrooms really healed me years back. Totally got rid of depression, anxiety and illicit pill addiction.

I guess I just want somewhere to share my story. When I was 19 I took shrooms, and it was like I was turned inside out. As a child, I was very extroverted and loved being around people. And after the shrooms, I felt disconnected from everyone and everything around me. I just wanted to alone. I am learning to feel happiness from within myself, not running from myself. It's been a LONG and PAINFUL process but once it's healed, it's healed and beautiful.

May our food be our medicine and our medicine be our food.

Psychedelics and psilocybin in general are just amazing with so many health benefits. Psilocybin treatment actually saved me from depression and excessive alcohol use. Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms.

I had a dream. A dream how to save humanity and in that dream I created a Magic-Mushroom-Bomb. The explosion looked like a perfect Shroom and the Fall-Out was not radioactive but psilocybin-active and relieved everyone from their struggles in their head and planted a seed of compassion and love.

I was recently diagnosed with PTSD and Adult ADHD, my therapist didn't want to put me on retolin and was looking into medical Marijuana but then I found Psilocybin and it changed my life forever .... now I take what I've found to men's groups, we may not need men's groups anymore 😀😀😀

I’ve been taking a lions mane supplement for 3 years. I have congenital scoliosis and neck trauma. Neuropathy in hands. Since watching your Podcast I started taking my lions mane together with my Niatab first thing in am. It’s amazing how much neuropathy in hands has dissipated!!! Thank you !!!

Mushrooms helped me with crippling PTSD and related mental issues (drug use, anxiety, etc). It’s not a cure, but a tool to improve and find a way out of unimaginable darkness. Without it, I don’t know if I’d still be here. Thanks for taking the time to educate the public on this! Hopefully for my children and grandchildren’s generation, this will be easily available and widely used to heal mental trauma.

I've been 5 months sober from alcohol and these December holidays I worried how I was going to cope with being around people drinking all day. Micro dosing which I started 2 days again was an absolute game changer. It soothed my anxiety and I had no temptation to drink and could socialise with those who were and enjoyed myself.

It almost brings me to tears to listen to Paul Stamets talk.

Imagine if the whole world took some at the same time.

This is an absolute must watch transfer of knowledge. Stamets is the best of this world.

Psychedelic mushrooms really healed me years back. These are great healing compounds! When used in proper context.

They allowed me to finally grieve a lifelong friendship that came to an abrupt halt after being ghosted. A month after being relieved of that burden, I stopped drinking alcohol. It wasn't that I didn't like drinking or was alcoholic, but the utter scam of numbing myself and accelerating time & not being present was revealed. It's been almost a year and I still have no interest. They have helped me immensely.

Paul is my favorite person, his information has changed my and many lives. Mine was transformed by this man, mentally, physically and spiritually

These babies saved my life ❤.

Stamets is a compassionate and wise teacher. He has chosen this moment carefully to bring the message of the mushroom.

I need guidance I can do 400-500 ugs of Lucy and 3-5 of shrooms and don’t get visuals a higher dose just makes me more disoriented and voices in my head non stop, where do i order from?

Really excellent and well supported talk as always Paul. I really appreciate the end when you say to have discipline and reach out to others who might be going astray by reminding them these are “sacred powerful medicines.” I’ve never heard anyone refer to our modern day pharmaceuticals like stimulants, opioids, and antidepressants as “sacred.”

Love you, Paul!

YOU ARE THE BODACIOUS ONE PAUL thankfully gratefully humbly ....blessings.

THANK YOU FOR GIVING THE WORLD PAUL STAMETS AND THOSE AKIN TO THE SUBJECTS THAT REALLY MATTER. ALL IS ONE.

He did a great talk at PS23 and stated the need to make 1 ounce of Psilocybe legal, as DEA agent he took foraging, himself collected Psilocybe. Of only.." an expert mycologist like myself can identify it"...the average citizen cannot. Thanks Paul!

1: I can listen to this man talk forever. 2: I can talk about the benefits of Mushrooms forever- but at this point I don’t. I’m done trying to prove to close minded people how good they are but for those who know, may you enjoy your journey, good health and endless learning!

Paul is an absolute boss on the reality of how psilocybin will change the world.

Paul is amazing

Love your work Paul Stamets ❤

I just started this journey after struggling for decades with depression, anxiety and complex PTSD. I am coming back to life after decades of being spiritually dead.

What's amazing (among other things) is how Psilocybe mushrooms can cure stuttering, as was the case with Paul. I heard of another case recently where a man with severe stuttering was 'cured' after one psilocybin session. One day he could barely speak, the next day he was no longer stuttering. This is why so many use the term 'miraculous' when describing the benefits of magical mushrooms.

Psychedelic’s definitely have potential to deal with mental health symptoms like anxiety and depression, I would like to try them again but it’s just so hard to source here

Love the mushroom 🍄 HAT

A dedicated Mycologist to change the goodness of mankind to live in an Ethereal World. We love you Paul!

Thank You For Everything Paul!

This is awesome. Paul is one of a kind.

Funny this rolls up while I'm microdosing for first time in a year

truth is becoming increasingly rare on youtube. here is truth. this is what honesty looks like. take note.

My life started changing for the better when i started microdosing, thank you Paul 🤜🤛

This dudes so knowledgeable he became star trek cannon. No lie he has a honorary character I'm star trek same name as this guy.

thank you for pointing out the clear bias of study design against natural molecules and how they are bound up with others and the importance of the entourage effect to natural medicine.

Paul, thank you! You have opened up a new world for me thanks!!

Showing your Mentors, your tradition, the respect to your teachers, thanks!

People who are into psychedelics for self development are very tolerant and wise. I have yet to see anyone of those who is racist, criminal, violent or anything like that. "psychedelics" people are usually the good people and to me they are fams wherever they are in this world

Many years ago, I spent some time in a beach shack on Si Shi beach on the Olympic peninsula of Wa. State. While I was there, a fellow who was staying in one of the cabins that was also there, came by and gave me a Boletus mushroom and told me that it was a forest mushroom and was very good to eat. I do believe that that person was Paul Stamets, those many years ago... Time has changed many things and unfortunately the US Forest service went in and burned down those cabins and the shack, as they became very popular as a place to party. It was very isolated as it was down a seldom traveled road and then a 5 mile hike to get to the beach. There were very few people that visited the beach back then in the mid to late 70's. I spent time there only twice myself. Each of those times is worthy of a story to be told.

The Cosmic Man synchronized his wisdom for this performance

What a great man! authentic and enthusiastic. i grow my own mushrooms for micro dosing since years now. that really helped me to shaped my mind and become more balanced in general.

We need 1000000000 PAULS

I have neuropathy in hands and feet from chemotherapy. PTSD From battling cancer the last year. I wish i knew this stuff earlier.

Amazing speech and optimism for this coming future! 🍄🌊🌌

Paul Stamets you are a legend!

I love mushrooms 🍄 ♥️ here in Ottawa Ontario, we have now three stores that I know of, that sells those babies, I nought the Mexicana and the Amazonian,and one I've never heard of called albino goodies that one I found a little weak but does the job, the Amazonian I had I took 4g that showed me some of the most beautiful visuals and a very beautiful feeling ❤️.. thank you for this presentation ❤️ ❤❤

The analogy I've developed towards psychedelics relates to my love of maps and cartogtsphy. Psychedelics can give you a "temporary map and birds eye view of where you are in life and an overall greater picture. For instance if you're hiking in a new place, It's good to check the map as an interpretive reference to orientation, navigation etc. Although not all the information on a map is a complete picture, it still helps you to proceed with a better sense of navigation. Yet you also could'nt stare at a map the whole time while also trying to successfully navigate a new area. I think it's a pretty good analogy to the flood of sensory information you'd get from psychedelics, you try to make temporary sense of it, but you still need to filter out alot in order for day to day functions. Alot of Huxley's references in Doors are still quite relevant to our understanding (?)

Really good ! We are in a big change!

An amazing speaker ! ❤ thank you …

I hunted for shrooms for about 2 weeks up in Oregon and finally made my way to the Washington border, near the Columbia River. I found the azurescens. The only psychedelic ones I found were them. They were beyond 🤯

Why has more of the world not seen this.

That was incredible

Awesome!!!!!!!!

Imagine if the whole world meditated at the same time 😮

I wish more people knew and cared about this genius. Mr. Stamets is literally trying to save our world.

Phsychedelics helped me quit illicit pills addiction, I was messed up I was depressed and a danger to myself. Good videos and help like this should be seen always.

Quality content, thanks for uploading.

Great presentation!

This is no bs, I pick from a farmers field right near where I live and walk my dogs, it's like my own personal field as no one else picks from it, the sheep are busy helping the mycelium grow right now, and I still have many left from last year's flush ✌️✌️ roll on this year's season 😍😍

These bot comments advertise the insta dealers need to chill the fuck out

Thank you

This would benefit masses but they couldn’t have people getting along. I used magic mushrooms many years ago in small doses. No need for alcohol, no need for any other drugs, well maybe a little maryjane. What a beautiful outlook I had.

My husband cured himself of a cancerous tumor in his bladder….with shroons! Traditional medicine wanted to remove his bladder…& administer chemotherapy & radiation

The *in vitro* study cited (at around 30 minutes) shows remarkable results using non-flush niacin. But I’ve heard elsewhere that only niacin that induces flushing is effective in the stack. Which is correct?

Love this guy!

I took a high dose of psychedelic shrooms and weed. It made me see the suffering of man. I couldn't take all that stimuli and ended up in the hospital. Even with this bad experience my life was changed for the better. I found purpose in myself now and reasoning to just be in this world.

the subaeruginosa in the australian otways this year have been more potent then i have ever encountered so much blue bruising and so potent

Very interesting. Thank you. I am watching you from Russia.

amazing

We need the creativity of each one now❤ thank you for all you share

the only reason mush helped me with binge drinking is because i didnt know my limmit.. but i react hard on mushrooms.. and so i ended up praying on the toilet as the bathroom tiles danced around me, lesson learned.

Awesome !! Lets heal the world :) Definitely should allow people to seek at their own admission, but this WILL be a game changer. no, it IS a game changer ! Lets go with full legalization :) The reason I am a proponent of full legalization is that we should be able to seek out positive mental health. We shouldn't have to wait until your mental health becomes bad to then seek remedy. We can keep our minds healthy by being proactive. I know this is real from experience. Plus, there are many times I thought I was totally fine mentally, but some friends wanted me to join their experience... and then, from the journey I realize there were some mental cob webs... Things I was unaware of... Things that I solved... From a simple light experience :)

the way i cried omg such great spokesperson

Bravo!! Bravo!! 👏🏻

Love cultivating

Omg; it just clicked! The makers of the T.V. show Star Trek Discovery introduced a fictional character inspired by this guy, played by Anthony Rapp; The character's name is Paul Stamets and is he's a scientist and engineer who combines physics and mycology into a method for instantaneous faster than light travel. What a pleasant surprise!

All things i notice on myself before know it....amazing...Thk really

One hundred and forty one, 141, came to me in a dream. Now I can leave the airport. Thank you Paul for all your hard work trying to save the human species. How can we get someone signed up for a clinical study?

Are we gonna be able to buy psilocybin mushrooms in the store soon?🙏👀

SUMMARY: 🍄 Paul Stamets is a mycologist who studies medicinal mushrooms like psilocybin. He comes from a long lineage of indigenous knowledge keepers. 🧠 There is growing scientific evidence that psilocybin mushrooms have mental health benefits like reducing depression, anxiety, and substance abuse. Stamets believes they can also reduce crime and violence. 📊 He shared data from meta-analyses showing psilocybin's association with reduced partner violence, opioid use, and increased nature relatedness. There are now 120 clinical trials on psilocybin. 💊 Stamets thinks microdosing psilocybin as a "neurotropic vitamin" could help with age-related neurodegeneration. His stack includes niacin and lion's mane. 🧬 His company found synergistic effects of niacin, lion's mane, and psilocybin analogs on nerve growth factors and BDNF in vitro. This could stimulate neurogenesis. 🧠 In a microdosing study, Stamets' stack improved finger tapping scores in people over 55, suggesting neurogenic benefits. He believes psilocybin could be a game changer for mental health. 🌿 He argues psilocybin mushrooms are sacred medicines that need to be used carefully, with government regulations as guardrails. We need more research to prove benefits clinically. 🙏 Stamets sees himself as a disruptor, pushing the boundaries of knowledge like minorities and pioneers tend to do. He hopes his work helps future generations.

Paul the KING!

Paul is the GOAT!

RFK jr had the most supportive psychedelic views I've ever heard from someone running for President. It's shocking to hear him voice the mental health benefits, especially from someone who attends AA meetings and family history of addiction

I've been taking psilocybin every weekend for about 4 years straight 😊

Imagine the profound science that can occur in the future where your "placebo" for measuring mushrooms is allowed to be a a different psychedelic, or non-psilocybin compounds from the same mushroom.

WOWWWWW!!!!! MIND BLOWN!!! ALL OF IT!!!

If someone had a sensitivity to glutamate, could taking psilocybin cause them to become severely intolerant?

I live in Oregon and would love to find someone who is knowledgeable to help me safely start micro dosing.

Amen ❤

“TREMENDOUS “!! 🍄 💜 ☮️

Mushrooms + VR + AI + Neural technology and hemi syncing would probably allow you to actually talk to aliens. Someone smarter than me do this!
