So I’ve gone down the rabbit hole of researching /r/unclebens and I just don’t have the time with work and my schedule. I live in Southern California and I understand it isn’t exactly legal yet even though it apparently isn’t enforced. As a person who is looking to try micro-dosing to help with depression, is there a way I can source what I need in pill form or dried? I’ve heard of recreational marijuana dispensaries in SoCal that sell it but there isn’t a list of them out there as far as I can tell. Any advice outside of just following through with the uncle Ben’s option?

I can’t give too much advice on sourcing (besides to make friends with the restaurant staff, concert people, or even DND folks near you), but I can speak to the hallucinogen experience for depression.

I micro (sometimes more of a macro) dose 2-4x per year, usually in the summer. I haven’t found it to change my depression at all, outside of the day I trip. That day is an 8 hour giggle fest. Other than that… the subsequent days are the same as before.

I’m sure you’ll have a good time regardless, I’d err on the side of a half or quarter dose vs a true microdose, but definitely don’t expect a magic bullet
