This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Thank you for this post with information.

Yeah, the info I was speaking from was mostly from a concern for the seraronin syndrome, not from hard evidence because like you said, it's an emerging area of study.

I did just see a study a few days ago, coincidentally, where the abstract said they found a 3 to 6 months period of time from last dose of an SSRI before it stopped interfering with shrooms trips.

Found it again: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37291890/

Interested in your thoughts.

I haven't delved too deep into this topic because everything I have read ranges from you won't get anything from it to its actual dangerous for you.

Yeah, tolerance and dosing with shrooms is kinda tricky (as in there's a trick to it, not that it's really difficult) if you're doing them with any regularity. I wouldn't be surprised if it's similar to that where you have to take quite a bit more to not only break the threshold to trip again but achieve the same level of trip, and your tolerance lessens with each day that passes.

I might be able to attest to that if I had been doing shrooms a little longer before I started strattera. Perhaps it's harder to achieve higher level trips, now that I think about it. But this is new information to me so it's something I'll have to keep an eye on. I happened to take .3g last night and got a bit more bang for my buck than expected. I also forgot to take my strattera yesterday. Coincidence? Maybe, maybe not. Low level trips are still valuable though imo.
