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

Don't forget to respect the mushrooms, Golden teachers basically, they have some very powerful potential. It can show you what you need to see within yourself and in the world around you, changed my life for good. In the most positive way possible.

I have been depressed for a long time, but after taking mushrooms few months ago, l feel much happier and highly motivated and my ADHD gone , lost a ton of anxiousness and had a few epiphanies about how I should live my life. I decided to buy an ounce for backup, but haven’t yet felt the need to take any more since then.

Psilocybin mushrooms have definitely had a positive impact on my mental health. They've been really helpful for me in dealing with anxiety and depression.

First time I tried shrooms I was like how in the world is the illegal!? This is the happiest I have ever felt. World was just radiating beauty and love.

Mushrooms did wonders in my life. I was severely traumatized years ago as a teenage, got diagnosed with ADHD. Spent my whole life fighting ADHD. I suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Not until my wife recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 8 years totally clean. Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms.

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.

Psychedelics are just an exceptional mental health breakthrough. It's quite fascinating how effective they are against depression and anxiety. Saved my life.

Fun fact.... this video almost got demonetized... I had to reupload it w/ a different description (barring any mention of the word "antidepressant" - GASP).

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.

Psychedelics are genuinely one of the greatest gifts that we have been given. It’s such a shame that so many authorities have demonised them to the extent they have.

Glad you’re doing good now. I started growing mushies after being at the end of my rope. I was stuck in the dark hole of ssri’s and psilocybin was the rope I used to pull myself out. I grow to give to friends and family now. I only need a reset every year or so. Never give up on yourself. Run into the darkness, shield down, sword up, screaming.

Psilocybin is the best drug experience ever.. it just reveals how really undescribably beautiful everything is and it is really difficult to forget it. Bye Bye childhood trauma

Microdosing has never worked for me. I need a BIG dose once or twice a year to be good and off all antidepressants. Mushrooms have been my friends for over 25 years 😊

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

This needs more attention, it's truly a crime against humanity that psylocibon is illegal.

First time I ever took mushroom, I could understand why the system is so scared of it and why it is illegal. Costa Rica strain showed me how fear is nothing but just an illusion and that I am/we powerful beyond measure and how there's no such thing as death. We are all God as we are all one from the creator itself, and how Love will never ever brings itself low to face aggression or hate. It was THE most beautiful experience in my 37 years of life. Oh yes and I couldn't stop giggling, I was so happy and relaxed didn't even have a smallest worry or care in the world. One love ♥️

I had an accident 20 years go where I became paralyzed from the waist down. I was in serious depression and pain and could not find my way free. I finally turned to psychedelics and it helped me to accept and overcome my situation. I had done psychedelics as a high school kid and that helped me to return to them when I really needed to.

I suffered the borderline disorder for over 15 years. With so much anxiety not until I came across psilocybin mushrooms treatment psilocybin treatment actually saved my life honest.

I just tried MUSHROOMS for the first time. I felt as if i was in the center of the universe. I didn't go crazy after such an extreme experience. Totally got rid of depression, anxiety and illicit pill addiction.

As a holistic psychotherapist, I help clients taper off of psychotropic medications. I'm also a certified EMDR holistic trauma therapist. I'm now investigating psilocybin microdosing to assist in this journey of healing. Thanks for sharing!!!

My first time trying magic mushrooms was life changing, I even cried of happiness. They should not be illegal.. Thank you for sharing your story 💕

Wow, Julianne! Your videos have been an amazing help to me. I’m a 69 year old retired veterinarian with a history of chronic depression. I have been microdosing for several weeks and I feel that it has made me feel better than I have felt for years. Through your encouragement and information, tomorrow morning will be my first psilocybin trip (1mg). I am now living in Playa del Carmen, Mexico so I’m going to, at least, start my trip on the beach with a friend standing by. I’ll report back to you. Thank you so much.

Psilocybin containing mushrooms 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 survive depression.

Thank you so much. I also have been diagnosed with C-PTSD plus clinical depression and anxiety disorder. I had been on antidepressants and anti-anxiety medication for years the result being just a feeling of "numb & dumb." I can relate to your battle weaning off. I am a new microdoser and so far so good. I have done lots of research but I enjoy your channel very much because your personal experience with microdosing has been invaluable.

A someone almost halfway through a cycle, I can def agree with a lot of this. I like how it helps with things like neurodivergence, which can typically cause this whole "one stress adds to another" phenomenon, with mushrooms, it takes this single massively filled stress bar that all life problems contribute to and instead separates into different forms of stress. Someone prone to overthinking may make major connections with all of their issues in life and may lose sight of the fact most people have a sense of separating their stresses from each other (you ever feel like a lot of people are just really chill about bad things that happen to them? its because they are probably just doing their best not letting initial stress of one issue cause others to form or get worse.) to make life less overwhelming. Neurodivergence causes a likelihood to over-connect ideas and mushrooms definitely helps with this 100%

Your presence is so grounded, that watching this video actually brought me into that space of remembering that being "okay now" is the most important thing. A very powerful testimony.

Thank you for being so open and generous with your spirit. This is the first video of yours I’ve seen and I am so impressed with your authenticity. I look forward to watching more. Thanks for all your doing 🙏❤️

I’m so glad you talked about the power of the present moment because that is exactly what I came to realize and practice after a few of my own trips. This is great work I’m going to share your channel with my girlfriend. Safe travels to you and thanks for the video!

Thank you for sharing this from your heart. I started micro dosing few month ago and it has been amazing. My life changed since I started doing it.

Ive spent a lifetime managing serious baggage and self medicating through turmoil along the way. All of it was done alone essentially, and not to my detriment in the end....I have survived. It is absolutely wonderful to see this kind of healthy self awareness and moreso, use of the internet for therapy...in your own life and Ill wager as you well know, the health and welfare of many others that find their way to your journey and your words. Congratulations to you ma'am, for being as strong as you needed to be. You are blasting barriers in mental health, making ground both for you and for all those that come after. Take care of you as you have and know your path is watched and rooted for. I went 3 years celibate intentionally a few years back (7-8) and had reached a point where I thought I was content that way for the rest of my life. Point is, I was wrong, the time was so very good for me,. and I walked away with a new set of sons, who are younger than grandchildren I have....the universe rewards the efforts we make for the betterment of more than ourselves. You are heading for a great change, and thank you for your story.

thank you for sharing your experience, i hope everyone would see this video. this is something people need to hear, because this world needs this now more than ever. also congratulations for your healing my friend !

Thank you so much for sharing this. I’m going thru something very similar to what you went thru and am having a tough time with it. This makes me feel like I’m not alone and gives me hope, thank you!

You're doing a great job! Love the honesty about your struggles and your insights.

Idk why I’m here, I wasn’t exactly looking for this content, but the video popped up on my feed. That being said… Damn, posting a video like this is incredibly brave of you. Appreciate the honesty. Glad to hear things are going better for you now 😊

Thank you so much Julianne. Very powerful insight into a deep hole I was afraid to take on alone. This is the best breakdown I have checked out (and I've seen many) thus far. Truly appreciate you sharing this segment of your journey as I know it shed a wonderful light on my own.Wish you the best!

wow, I'm amazed to have found someone with an experience so closely resembling my own. I just started microdosing and even the first time I did it I felt an immense change in my psyche. Thank you for sharing your story!

I’m just two weeks in and totally get your explanation! 👌🏾It’s a sense of presence I haven’t experienced in a long long while. The fight or flight mode is turned off. ❤️

With a lot of time and discipline, psychedelics helped save my life. So glad to hear about your positive shift. We all deserve to feel ok.

Absolutely beautiful, your experience is nearly identical to mine. Just took them last Saturday and life has been good to me since then. Thanks for sharing and hopefully someday people will truly be able to understand with people like you to explain to people who are too scared by societal norms and their own true thoughts and emotions ❤️

Just found your channel and I think its great, I've been struggling with anorexia and depression for 2 years now. Since like 4 months ago I got into spirituality and psychedelics and it got me out of that shit. I think that this message should be more wide spread!

this video is so helpful and informative. it's hard to find content that touches upon everything you spoke about in regards to microdosing and mental health. I relate so much with your mental health journey. got a lot from this video

Thank you Julianne for this very helpful video. Sharing your experience will help a lot of people. All the power and love to you.

Love your presence of mind and communication style. You're direct, concise, and eloquent.

Thank you! It's even more useful that you had a goofed-up start to it. You wind up covering some of the big questions just by relating your experience. Congrats on the subscription numbers too(as related to your mention in the video). What o just watched had integrity and useful information. You must be doing something right.

This is so helpful and encouraging, Julianne. Thank you very much for sharing your journey.

Thanks for the time you've took to share all this precious informations. Really good to see serious people talking about the real deal treatment. Keep up the great work!

So glad you’re doing great!! Thanks for sharing and your courage seeing it thru and sharing 🙏🏾

It's good to hear you have psychedellics have helped you in your life. I've always taken mushrooms for recreational use but these past few years when doing them for fun I am realizing that a full trip of 1/4th of an oz (Golden Teachers), will leave me feeling happy for a long time after it's over. So now I am having a full blown trip every year that leaves me feeling happy for months after it's over.

This was fascinating, thank you for sharing your experience.

Wow, it’s so cool to hear you talk about all the positive changes microdosing has brought into your life. I recently participated in a yoga nidra + psilocybin microdose journey. It was so beautiful and I felt such comforting bliss and peace. I’m feeling called to start a protocol, and stories like yours are really encouraging.

I am so glad to hear your mental health is doing well and you found something that really helped :)

This video really needed to be made and was very informative. Thank you!!

Bravo on your healing journey! I just ended a 3 month micro-dosing schedule and this past weekend I took 2 full grams and the trip was powerful and very healing. I felt the warmth of love just hitting me like lightning bolt. I too have noticed my mental health improve dramatically, it brought me closer to my mother allowing me to be more open. I better understand my father and why he is the way he is. I'm taking a couple of months off and will possibly go back to it.

Thank you for sharing. I have been struggling lately with depression and suicidal ideation, and i have been considering microdosing. Genuinely appreciate you sharing your experiences

Very thankful to hear your measured experiences with microdosing, and I'm so glad your channel is thriving! I've known for a long while, after first trying psilocybin and then seeing that THC was being legalized that "soon" mushrooms would be also. The only drawback was that no one seemed to have good knowledge on the substance, so I'm glad to see KZfaqrs like you spreading easily accessable information!

This (and your other few videos on this subject) may be some of the best microdosing videos on KZfaq! And I've seen a lot haha. The issues you've addressed that led you to the SSRI are JUST like mine. Even just watching this I became aware the aspirational anxiety is OCD related (a compulsion as you put it), I hadn't actually made that connection before. But that's the thing, microdosing seems to really work well for mild-moderate OCD related anxiety. This vid inspires so much hope, I've had a rough time on antidepressants, overall they've actually just made my life worse, and have become the main problem these last few years. I'm FINALLY less than a month from being at 0 after nearly 2 years of going down slowly. Your description of in the moment contentness, present minded perspective were described perfectly, but the real kicker is your ability to keep the learnings without the microdose, that's the thing that makes me the most hopeful about microdosing once I'm off the antidepressant. Please keep these vids up, I really hope YT doesn't demonetize them, you're providing such valuable information to others who are suffering. I've been micro-dosing golden teachers since mid-2019, they've helped immensely with the withdrawal symptoms, both acute and long lasting (rebound depression). I haven't actually dosed on a schedule yet, I've averaged once or twice a week for a few weeks, then take some time off. The overall effects have been a bit muted by the zoloft but they're always a big help the day of. I've only had 24-48 hour relief, but never much more than that. I know in my heart it's the ssri and the stimulant that keep my mind and emotions so limited. As I'm approaching this last bit of the taper I think I might jump on the Fadiman protocol depending on how I continue to react. I may take another break around the time I'm at 0 just to let my brain rebalance but this video has me so excited to do that or Stamets schedule in the long run to let my brain heal and hopefully this takes my mental health farther than the antidepressant ever could. Just praying I don't have migraines as bad as you did, I've had little bits here and there but nothing unmanagable yet. OMG and the nightsweats and insomnia have been awful.

I’m glad you stuck with the KZfaqs. I’ve just found your videos in the last couple of days and finding them super insightful and informative, keep it up please. Agree 100% that microdosing and meditation go hand in hand, as do mediation and ‘macrodosing’ if that’s a word yet haha. Thanks again.

This was such a thoughtful and articulate video. Thank you so much for the clarity, simplicity and openness with which you share your ideas. I truly appreciate what I have learned from you!!!

I think it's amazing your story it's truly groundbreaking material even for myself microdosing help me get off of opiates and the way you talk about your depression is how I felt about me coming off of drugs and it's been like 7 months now and I don't even have a craving for it I hope that this medicine is widely available soon

Thanks to you I started microdosing, I now took my 4th dose and Im tryring higher doses each time while meditating. I have debilitating PTSD with physical symptoms. Thank you ! PS: i LOVE your hair.

Thank you. You are so articulate, thorough, insightful, informed, and intelligent beyond your years.

Thank you so much for your videos. I started my MD journey yesterday and used your videos to make my decisions. I am looking for exactly what you've achieved and I'm really hopeful and excited. I have 2 years clean from drugs, alcohol and psychiatric meds and this is my next level recovery. You're so thorough and hit exactly what I needed. Again thank you for your work and sharing your life.

Fantastic channel, very intelligent young lady. One other way to measure the success of your channel is the guidance it may give to even one person with depression, anorexia etc...it may actually save the life of someone who stumbles across it. That is a incalculable legacy and something you should be really proud of.

Thank you so much for sharing! I went through the same journey last year starting with microdosing as well! I am truly grateful for what this plant medicine has taught me and I look forward to learning more! 🤗🍄✨

Best video ever!! What you're doing is DEFINITELY helping, rest assured ❤❤❤

Your genuine attitude is such a breath of fresh air, it is a great idea for mental health and I agree from experience totally ... thank you

Yay!!! I'm in a similar boat. Busy reworking a lifetime of stress and trauma and emerging happy and well adjusted. Golden Teachers have helped me so much . I have connected spiritually with myself if nothing else and being calm and happy feels like a blessing from God himself. Thank you for spreading the message and best of luck with your channel. Also not dating and happy. Maybe one day tho, when I've done some work first.

@julianne keu Thank you once again for doing this video and updating us on your journey and progress. Thanks in part to your videos I began my microdosing journey September 2020, this after being on antidepressant for 16 years that pretty much numbed my feelings all together and after experiencing my 3rd worse depression/anxiety episode that lasted from April 2020 until about beginning of October and completely recovered in November 2020. After listening to how bad your side effects were upon weaning off your antidepressant, I consider myself one of the lucky ones, because thankfully I did not experience any side effects and I had been on this useless medication for 16 years! 🙏🏼. In any case, I’m still microdosing but in my case, I’ve gone from every 3 days to every 2 weeks and so far I continue to do very good. It has definitely given me more clarity on many things personally and motivation through the roof! I’m going back to school and start this Wednesday, super excited!! Thank you for being passionate about mental health, for sharing your experience and encouraging others to research and find an alternative method to mental well being. 🥰🙏🏼

I’ve never heard anyone speak that open and honest about themselves before. Ever. I’ve got some work to do on myself. I think I’ll subscribe. Well done Julianne.

Thanks for the informative video !! Hope you find the love you deserve out there !!

Wow there are so many benefits. Thank you for being a voice and proving the stigma wrong!

I can't tell you how thankful I am for your videos, "I'm an idiot" I literally spit out my tea. I started a 3/3 1 month regime yesterday and I devoured your videos in preparation - I am worried coming from an addictions background and such a high tolerance for drugs - it won't work for me, but I'm trying to keep my intentions positive. I suffer from PMDD - a severe case of it, and not a candidate, nor does my doctor recommend antidepressants. It's crazy listening to your story. Thank you again for creating this content

Love your transparency and honesty. Thank you!

I also started microdosing psilocybin to eliminate symptoms of my anxiety, depression and recent burnout. I was amazed at all the benefits. I put my experience into a video 🙃 I think the biggest surprise was getting back that missing piece of myself 🥰

Love your videos. I'm sharing them with my friends. Your honesty is amazing. It's so important to spread the knowledge on this topic. Thank you so much for doing it in such a...digestible way. You are an excellent ambassador for psilocybin.

Thank you for sharing! I'll be doing this soon as pharma and tons of therapy has always failed me when it comes to depression. I have high hopes for this from all my research. God gave us everything we needed to treat illness without pharma poisions.

Julianne, thank you for this. You popped up in my feed and I clicked! Also subscribed and shared your video here with multiple friends who are deconstructing and dealing with a lot of anxiety and depression. I have some questions that I'll add after the video, just in case they aren't included. Bless you for having this channel and sharing your experience~ not just the dosing, but also your journey of depression, anxiety, and getting off of SSRI's. That is serious business! I don't think people realize this when a doctor puts them on these meds 😢

i love this channel and all will go well, think positive girl :)

Realistic view on microdosing, more vids please but no pressure just do it whenever it's good for you.

Despite how frequently there's edits in your video it doesn't affect the quality of the content. Seamless transitions in edits. I really appreciate the content and how thoroughly you answered questions

Grateful to hear your story and experiences with microdosing. I have acquaintances who are writers, scientists, and entrepreneurs and who also turned to microdosing to provide solace, healing and light. I just subscribed to your channel and look forward to more illuminating videos. Keep creating and forging on, Julianne.

Thank you for these videos. I think everyone should try psychedelics! From my own personal experience, many of the plant medicine such as, ayahuasca and mushrooms have changed my life. Coming from the background of being an I.V heroin user for 14 years, I never thought taking plant medicines with good settings and intentions would make such a change 🙂🙏🏽. I myself have been microdosing consistently for over a year as well, my focus has seemed to shift to the present. Before I would be caught in yesterday, which would bring up the feelings of anger and resentment, or I would be stuck in tomorrow which would bring up fear and anxiety. Being in the present has allowed me to enjoy life more. Shrooms are not a cure for me by no means, it’s just a different voice that provides guidance. Journey well 🙏🏽

I love you so much for sharing this! Excellent video. This is the future of mental health. Because of people publicly speaking on this, it will continue to destigmatize psychedelics. Thank you

Thank you for this video. It was extremely educational and I love that you included studies.

Love this video! It’s so comprehensive and detailed 💕

My wife passed with and from ptsd/MPD She was a High Priestess and herbalists. I wish I could have learned about this. Thank you.

Regarding the libido/intimacy question...OH YEAH, it enhances the experience very much.

This has been so informative. I'll be micro-dosing very soon in hopes of breaking down some bad habits. I'm glad I've stumbled onto your page, thank you.

Thank you for sharing your experience. I have a background in mental health and the prospects of psylocibin are so positive, I love that so many people are finding hope and healing from it.

Good video. Sharing from the heart makes you come across as authentic.

Wow I ve experienced all that trama PTSD childhood ptsd Usmc vet..Self-medicating with drugs and alcohol when I came back to the United States never did any kind of doctors medicine I’ve always been into psychedelics just from the music that I follow and then I started realizing that this microdose Will put me in a better position to be a loving father to my daughter and it has

Julianne, I absolutely love the way in which you express yourself, and of course the content that you share with us. Thank you so much 🙏💚

Thank you for this information. I'm in the research phase of micro dosing. I know it will help me. I recently starting taking lions mane tincture. I have to tell you it's been a massive game changer as far as anxiety and feeling low. I'm loving it. I ran out and noticed immediately. I'm ready to start my M.D journey. I'm so glad I discovered your channel. Thanks again.🍄

You didn't really change your personality more just came out from life conditioning and revealing your true self. You were always there just buried under other people's ideas and forced trauma. Unfortunately that is a fact of incarnation

I suffer so badly with Major Depressive Disorder. I wish I could try this method but I have no idea even where to begin to look for it. Thank you for this video.

Great video! This absolutely works, it worked for me. I haven't done it in a long time but the contentment is great. I even worked in a stressful environment with little to no stress. Good for you!

I really like your videos on this topic. You come across so informative, genuine and matter-of-fact. Looking forward to new videos. Hope you are well!

I think one of the keys is the fact that you go into the experience with a purpose. Meditating helps to focus that purpose/intent in your subconcious. If you take them just to party , that's all that you will notice.

4:40 : My favorite part. Super blessed you weren’t having worse side effects for that dosage! That’s 3 times the max you were started at. Thank you for your brutal honesty. I pray your meditation continues to push your breakthroughs. 🙏
