Psilocybin mushrooms healed me. I can’t explain it but my experience has been quite spiritual. Depression and anxiety entirely gone.

Start at 4.00 and end about 5:30 if you want to hear about the title topic. You're welcome.

Psilocybin is an ancient and powerful medicine. It is amusing that “modern” medicine is only now trying to understand what Indigenous people have know for a millennia.

anxiety DOES feel like static. constant hypervigilance. it is exhausting.

I guess everyone arrives to mushrooms with different expec- tations. For me it was my eternal search for answers.

Kudos to Neil for being so honest about his depression and therapy.

My favorite daily regiment is 1g of Paul stamets lions mane. Having cognitive disruption from being on a autism spectrum I can honestly say that I feel clearer then I've ever felt before. I get jealous when I hear the wonders that micro dosing is doing for people. Mushrooms in phoenix are scarce given our dry climate. I can relate to Neal here when he talked about finding other methods to feel better. I was on Luvox for 6 years at a very high dose compared to the normal person I was taking 300mg per day. For 6 years I had no emotions, could not shed tears. When I weaned myself off I gradually started replacing my meds with full spectrum CBD. As of now I'm free from Luvox and it's withdraws and I know stick to a more healthy regiment of lions mane and CBD rich cannabis. If it wasn't for guy like Joe and his podcast I would still be popping pills today. Thank you joe sharing your ideas and allowing brilliant minded people to talk with you for a couple of hours each show.

This was not a video about microdosing mushrooms

Eric Clapton looks great.

You can escape feelings of anxiety but depression is untreatable in the moment you have it unless you get high which makes beating an addiction so hard. I did mushrooms for my first time this week and I never would have thought you actually change for the better but it is true. Drugs are evil but mushrooms are god given drugs.

Had crippling depression, on tons of meds 22 years with no reaI relief. had psilocybin once and am healed. No meds no depression. Shame its illegal. Almost like they want to keep us sick.

Thank you Neal for describing anxiety in such a real way. Awareness.

How can a plant be illegal? Ban poison ivy I say!

Just wanted to throw it out there that there's studies from decades back before research on psychedelics was banned that prove small doses of psilocin increase visual acuity. Joe's fighter friend who uses them to train is literally seeing muscles contract and expand that he would just never notice normally, and that tips him off to what his opponent will do next. It just feels like a super-power because your brain's visual processing center can't conciously keep up with that much information coming in.

He got the experience of anxiety so that was a good thing. It would have helped him realize what it's like and appreciate what anxious people go through. He described it well.

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

and I might be mistaken, but didn't native tribes microdose on hunts claiming they heightened reflexes and increased athletic ability.

Psylocibin is a wonderful compound. You need to respect it and do not take it lightly.

Psilocybin containing mushroom saved my life. The drastically reduced my benzodiazepine withdrawal allowing me to quite illicit pill addiction after three years of heavy daily use before it would had became medically dangerous to quit. it has also helped me to survive depression

I can agree to the microdosing mushrooms effects I take luvox 250mg a day for 10 years now. The .10 gram of cubensis I took for 1 week using 1 day on 2 days off I had emotions, primarily happy. My work was more focused. Good stuff

Psychedelic ads yet you can’t monetize cannabis content lmao

yeah anxiety sucks lol he’s making me realize how it’s not normal and doesn’t have to be this way lol.

gotta love the psilocybin

What an amazingly well-rounded healthy convo

running the intro backwards to fuck with the trippers. classic JR

"WOOOOAAAHHH" Should be on Joe Rogan's gravestone

TMS therapy saved my life from major depression.... it’s 6 weeks of 45 min treatments 6 days a week

I did TMS, HGH, GHB, CBD, THC, XTC, and MDS then posted TMI and got raided by the FBI

Cortisol Snow. Damn that's perfect.

Im a recovering addict (opiates and alcohol were ruining my life) and they've helped me tremendously. It's not a cure-all by itself. You gotta still work on yourself, cleaned up my diet, exercise more, shoot for a full night's sleep, spend more time w friends and family, and im active in a recovery program. But with all that adding in some lower doses of psilocybin helps me out a lot. I battled cancer last year and went through some harsh life circumstances the past few years as well and mushrooms helped improve my quality of life tremendously. I don't do them often but maybe once a month I enjoy them as a nice little reset. I notice im friendlier to people, enjoy my life more and im not bothered by little things as much.

Shrroms are also good for cluster headaches. We've known this for years, but the stigma of doing psychedelics was too much. Acid and ecstasy are also very good anti depressants in small doses.

Static is down playing a panic attack. I feel like my heart is going to seize up or my brain will 'cut the lights out' at any moment. Or, in some cases, I wont be able to come back from a delusional state and my brain is permanently fucked up.

I did Iboga in Costa Rica and it's so true about the questions. There is an intelligence in the plant to which you can ask it questions and the answers will come to you as floating images with your eyes closed.

I’ve never heard a better explanation for anxiety. I have it and it’s draining as fuck, usually I just get through it by reminding myself that there are people dealing with a lot more than a bit of anxiety. Usually works, not very healthy - 5/10 would recommend

I know for a fact that this guy's anecdotal impressions of micro-dosing LSD and psilocybin are purely placebo. He said that he was taking Zoloft medication while he tried microdosing-- Zoloft is a serotonin re uptake inhibitor and thus would prevent any affects of Mushrooms or LSD to come through. I consumed 5 grams of dried mushrooms while also on Zoloft and didn't feel a thing.

The consumption urge that isn't related to hunger may stem from a need for more happiness chemicals. 5htp can help with depression so I wouldn't be surprised if excessive consumption of food was your bodies way of triggering the reward system for a dopamine release

Anxiety is the worst thing a human can have, literal suffering. Idk how much longer I can continue this way its been 8 yrs

Also, in my home town, they have sensory deprivation rooms, instead of just tanks.

Psychedelic ad during the video just bam 💥 here ya go.

It's strange how poisonous/toxic fungi, namely mushrooms, are perfectly legal. Go forage for it, cultivate it, harvest it, feed it to your neighbors! - Ok, too much sarcasm, I don't want to dull the point of this conversation. Yet psilocybin is considered a Schedule I Substance; and while at face value that alone doesn't mean you'll be hauled off to Con College by the lobes of your ears(though you might), it *is* indicative of the current US Legal Systems understanding of these substances. Right from the DEA's mouth: "Schedule I drugs, substances, or chemicals are drugs with no currently accepted medical use and a high potential for abuse." Now study after study will make claims regarding the addictive factors, or lack thereof, with substances like Cannabis, or Psilocybin (the only two I dabble in), and rightfully so. Drugs aren't for everyone. Different Brain Chemistry reacts differently to different substances, or stimulants - real surprise, right? But is that reason enough to toss it in the Schedule I Box among others like Heroin (with its own sorted, yet perplexing History in this Country), Bath Salts, Quaaludes, MDMA, and others? Really? When has outlawing a substance, any substance (see: Alcohol and Prohibition) ever worked out the way as planned? Where we all just set our vices down and went "Welp, the Law said that is a no no, so i best not touch the stuff". Or has it always ended with two things happening: 1.) A vast criminal enterprise cropping up around the outlawed substance (99% of the time were/are *very* expansive international operations). And 2. A wake of violence that rode the coattails of everyone involved. From common Law Man, to Legislator, Bootlegger, or Crime Boss alike. Undoubtedly most manufactured "street drugs" have practically no purpose being in any good folks systems. Meth, Heroin, Cocaine - things of this sort should remain in the labs, not in the hands of the general populace. Rather than better lives, or at least better your day, these drugs generally destroy them. The manufacturing and distribution should 100% be illegal. But "common" possession, or use? I don't know honestly. It's a hard decision. On one hand you don't want people hurting themselves, or god forbid others...but one should also have the freedoms to make those decisions in life. But I suppose only if the common sense to discontinue the substances use was the immediate afterthought. Guess it is as much of a Moral, and Philosophical Question, as it is a Legal or Constitutional one. Damn yo, I'm high as fuck

If I had the ability to get mushrooms to micro dose I'd 100% give it a shot. Taken mushrooms 3 times in my 20s. Loved it. Wish I knew how to get them

Neal I took a little trip this weekend. I’ve been struggling with anger the past 6 months and ever since the trip some of the anger has just left. It’s not corrected by any means. But it did create some progress.

Where i live is on the foothills of a small mountain('or mynydd,i'm welsh),a 20 minute walk to the top of the mountain,or 3 minute drive to the mushroom fields.It's a right of passage for the youths who grow up here.I was 11yrs old when I had my first trip,which seems crazy to me now when I look at my 11yrs old grandson.Every autumn (fall)we would be picking and tripping,Once we were old enough to get in pubs and clubs and some starting families nobody seemed to bother with mushrooms anymore.I used to go picking sometimes cos the old man could swap them for weed,but never really had a trip.That was 30yrs ago,I started suffering from depression and anxiety and turned to heroin yrs.After seeing all the information about psychedelics and microdosing a few yrs back I started picking them again,I been clean of heroin for a few yrs and of sound mental health.I do other things like meditation and read and watch lot of stuff to keep me positive and try avoid people that constantly negative.. So I can't say that it was only the psilocybin. but it definitely a key factor in my recovery.We used to trip in a group and have a laugh,but now I use them on my own,I've had a couple of spells microdosing,I do have the occasional trip,on my own and go deep within.I love them,lol..I'm lucky to have them grow so close,I can see the fields from my doorstep.There was a bumper crop last year,no doubt i'll be up there again come fall. 🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Joe "I have a buddy of mine who is a kickboxing champion and he microdoses and can see things coming when he's sparring" Rogan.

Came for the microdosing Left looking up parts for a DIY TMS machine.

• Always enjoy Tom Green.

Thank dudes!

Joe made some very good conversation leads in this video/podcast. The recipient however missed those exploratory questions and wanted more to tell his side.. nothing wrong with that. But imo the conversation could have really touched on some subjects that viewers would have been interested in.

Apparently microdosing makes you say “literally” 15 times per minute for no reason at all.

Why is the joe rogan experience part in reverse on this one

Hgh usually has the opposite effect. Most people on hgh, especially high dose hgh, are super calm/chill/slow.

Joe "are u still eating sugar???bread???" Rogan

I think microdosing is a long term endeavour. Not a quick fix.

Seretonin toxicity Prozac and nootropics almost died...got off those meds, seretonin stays 6weeks after you're off it

Hey Jamie pull up that video of the bear eating the mushroom 😂

He describes micro dosing perfectly. Anxiety free for 3 months

Eric Clapton needs to drop the coke

Lsd is fun a tad more visual than high amounts of shrooms

So much talk about treating symptoms which everyone seems to be interested in. There should be some talk about what makes almost everyone we know symptomatic. That has to be at good portion the conversation when we discussed the treatments.

Why are people so scared of mushrooms? I don't get it. They are amazing.

Nobody gonna mention the first 30 seconds with his funny ASS face 😂😂😂

Thank you 🙏

Once you start doing shrooms you realize there are no shrooms but something has always been happening

I’ll tell ya what staves off sugar cravings..? sauerkraut! There are a dozen different types, strengths and flavours. While a pungent tasting dish there’s bound to be something for everyone,

“Homeboys doing mushrooms”

This guy is pretty honest

I'm on day 2 and I almost gave up hope last week so this is my only hope so im praying!! Im a mother of 3 who wants to feel like a mother again, not a responsibility doer...much love

Don’t watch this while high on shrooms!

You gotta love something So true though.

I think maybe that's what they have me....i had a tickle though.... no panic attacks. And if they don't already... someone needs to make wireless things for the mics so when you move away it moves with you and vice versa.

Static... A prefect description in my mind.

Just relized that micro doses are stopping me from my anger issue, I have a wickid stupid temper problem, I am really working on it shrooms could save the world.

I have panic attacks from absolutely nothing. It really sucks. Fuck anxiety.

Would be great to have access in CA. Ridiculous that we're not there yet..

Is .2 a good starting place for microdosing

Sandy is gonna be pissed

Anxiety is horrible. I have GAD.

What was that at the beginning?

Injust started microdosing and the first day I feel super tired. Why?

Doing this before I ever heard of it. Great med for your head

Neal is a brilliant dude

Homeboy kicks ass coz the mushies connects him to the warrior within :P

Can someone enlighten me on this tank he is talking about hopping in?

00:05 woooow i felt like i was on mushrooms just looking at that guys face

I started drinking a quart of Kefir every day and man, I definitely feel better. Less baggage more stability.

Joe please do a podcast with sophia the robot!! Ps ayahuasca and shrooms are like changing good talk

Who was the fighter he was talking about at 5:00

My last trip, I was drinking on them aswell. Something clicked after 1 beer into the trip. My trip was telling me to get that shit out of my body it was practically screaming at it. I've barely drank since and when I do, I get violently ill.

I was on Prozac many years ago and I was less depressed but I couldn’t feel very happy or high either because it levels you out to a strange flatlined way of feeling….not great. Literally never got goosebumps from a fantastic song, etc. I used to suffer anxiety and panic attacks and that’s hellish! I’m better for many years now thank goodness. Microdosing is great….I am doing it right now….allegedly….hehe

What tank are they talking about?

I have MD'd mushrooms for months now and have zero psychic abilities but I have something better - the best way I can explain it is this: there is a place inside of my consciousness that was once cloudy but now it is clear. But. I am pairing MD'ing with something called the Kiloby Inquiries. I am sceptical of those who rely on mushrooms as a feel-good fix all pill.

YOOOOO I'm on zoloft and wanted to start microdosing but couldn't find a lot of info online. Good glitch in the matrix!

I started microdosing Magic Mushrooms 2 weeks ago and wow. It is amazing. I had no negative thought only positive and I swear I could not get angry even if someone tried to piss me off. It took away my anxiety and depression. I had more focus and more control over myself. It sounds crazy but you have to try it. 100mg a few days in a row and the. Take a break for a few days.

Anybody know the kickboxer joe was talking about?

Can you microdose on mushrooms if you’re the President? Asking for a friend.

That’s hilarious I used to play prly every hockey game from 10th grade on acid and it really elevate my senses and instincts I wouldn’t recommend it for anyone but it did help me all my friends and family where trippin wondering how it was possible while dosed to play at that level

“Do you ever just go in the think tank and think about .. your daughters? 😂what

i used to microdose when i trained in mma, it was awesome. and when i played basketball.

Is it just me or did they not have this exact same Ketamine conversation last time they sat down? Am i craze.

Symptoms of micro-dosing for long periods include never shutting up about how everyone else is doing it wrong and you are doing it correctly because you read a wikihow article one time and now you think you are some all-knowing God.
