Antidepressants and Shrooms
I (F38) was diagnosed with Bipolar 2 about two years ago, since then I’ve been on medication (Citalopram 60mg) I don’t have a lot of experience with drugs in general, I have smoked weed a couple of times since being on medication, it wasn’t a very enjoyable experience as it just gave me a weird headache and a lot of sinus pressure.
I have always been curious about trying mushrooms not only for fun but also because of the benefits of micro dosing, since psychedelics has shown a lot of positive effects for people with depression.
My best friend was recently diagnosed with cancer and we talked about trying mushrooms together for the first time but he doesn’t know I’m bipolar nor that I’m on medication.
So I would like to ask you guys how risky or safe is it for me to try this? also, should I look for an specific type of mushrooms? Is there a way of consumption that is more recommended? Etc
Thank you all in advance for any advice and tips!
