Psychedelics, Serotonin & Migraine - Spotlight on Migraine S2:Ep23

[@Lemonz1989]

Microdosing mushrooms has absolutely changed my life. I'm diagnosed with chronic migraines and constant "background headaches." After one single 0.3 gram dose of mushrooms it made my migraines basically stop and I almost never have a "normal" headache anymore. I used to abuse over-the-counter painkillers just to get by in the past, which in and of itself can cause headaches, but I really had no choice. Now I can manage with one single aspirin every few days to stop a normal headache, and I have maybe one migraine every two weeks, compared to 16 to 20 a month in the past. I have tried at least 10 prescription medications and the best of those just had a mediocre benefit and a lot of side effects. Now I take one gelatine capsule filled with 250 mg (0.25 grams) of mushroom powder every 3 days. I almost cried from happiness when I tried it. My life has basically been on hold for 20 years because of the migraines, and now I'm almost cured. :)

I,m an Army veteran of Iraq ... after Iraq I started getting cluster headaches for almost two years . Doctors checked me up and down. They could never help in anyway . I was rocked a few times (IED,mortars) shock waves threw body . I was station overseas ate some mushrooms and it disappeared but never put two and two together. Just a few weeks ago the cluster headaches came back everyday 3 or 4 times a day (more than 12 years of remission) I'm so sad I thought life was over . Going to order some mushrooms and see if it will snap me back into rhythm

let us know how it goes! I have cluster headaches, and stroke-like migraines. I spend most of my days only able to tend to basic food, exercise, bathing. After a decent dose of mushrooms, I can go 2-3 weeks with NO debilitating symptoms. And then it teeters off. The feeling of potential is wild. Not that I could be "cured" but that I can live with symptoms and do the things I love

[@vardanyanser]

Please let me know how it goes. [e-mail] I’d try a high dose. Also please pay attention on your body during the trip. You may feel a blockage in your ears (similar to when flying on a plane). There is a theory that it might be the negative energy that was developed because of psychological trauma. If this happens try equalizing until they pop, you can repeat the exercise several times or when you feel the blockage. You may feel the tension in your upper body mussels. That's also the energy ask your gide to put the pressure on the spot to release the energy. Goog luck and thank you for your service.

Did they help ( what you ordered)?

[@shannamack4290]

Thank you for your service, I, personally, appreciate it. I love America and my freedom. Did the mushrooms help, I have cluster, right eye, every morning...hypnic, wakes me up

Great info wow, love to see the openness of this channel. just the tip of the iceberg!

I am learning about the use of mushrooms to treat migraines, how to use them? Will the pain return when I stop using microdosing? looking forward to hearing your sound.

[@hajnalkalakatos5007]

Shrooms are the best painkiller. Not just for migraine but for joint and muscle pain. I am an office worker I sit 8-10 hrs per day and the pain was killing me. I started microdosing and I am able to do my daily routine withot pain, even can do sports again.

[@couldbedreaming6330]

I was hoping someone would say this. I haven’t tried them yet, wanting to fix a migraine I’ve had for near 10 years but have plenty of body pain as well. Glad to hear it helps for both

[@gerrittmiller889]

my "migranes" are caused by psycpactive substances and its very hard to find out what i have. Mainly i can feel my pupils are fully expanded and a painful wave over the front of my face that forces me to sit up shake my head vigorously to attempt to stop it, my best description is my eyes are wiggling and my face feels like when you slam your funny bone

[@bostonbob9667]

Amazing information!

[@lmundishop8047]

Are these psychedelics a cure , I won't get another migraine, or just another pain med.

[@user-dy5ho4sj2w]

Hello, Imundi! Psychedelics won’t necessarily cure the headaches after one dose, although it is possible they will. That’s hard to say. But you may be able to do something called “micro dosing” which involved occasionally taking small doses of psychedelics. Psilocybin mushrooms have been shown to be helpful in reducing and eliminating headaches, including cluster headaches. Sending out positive vibes to you and hoping your headaches get better soon. You may be able to reach out to a family member who has connections to a psychedelic substance. I’m not sure where you live but they are generally illegal in most places. That being said, they also have an incredibly long history of medicinal use and have even been used in sacred religious practices for thousands of years. :) I hope this information helps you.

Preventative, also helps many people during an attack

[@48forks]

What confuses me is the mechansim of action. Lots of serotonin antagonists are effective in migraine treatment especially those against 5-HT2. Psilocybin is a serotonin agonist especially at 5-HT2. How is it believed psychedelics work for migraines?

[@zuck9090]

Thank you for this presentation. I take sumatriptan and its a godsend for me to be able to function in life. It works pretty reliably, but not always. I also have a great interest in psychedelics- even less popular ones that work differently like salvinorin A. I was curious if you know of any advocacy/therapy groups out there for someone in my situation? I’m in Massachusetts, if that matters.

[@davidsotir4318]

I also take sumatriptan regularly but am concerned about medication overuse headache. Do you experience this phenomenon?

[@Lemonz1989]

@@davidsotir4318 I take rizatriptan when I get a migraine and developed overuse headaches in the past, because I had 16 to 20 migraines a month back then. My neurologist said that I shouldn't use it more than 9 days a month at most. I almost never take it anymore, because mushrooms are so effective for me. I take 0.25 grams of mushroom powder every 3 days now and it has almost cured me.
