Hi,

I’ve successfully busted my cycle once 2 years ago using mushrooms. I’m not quite sure the strain I used however I never had a visual overwhelming trip.

I entered a new cycle around mid April, I’ve taken 4 doses, the last dose using 1.5g lemon tekked Albino Penis Envy strain. This caused an extremely overwhelming, emotional, visual trip. Very unpleasant.

This huge trip however did in fact help severely weaken my cycle, as I have not had a single full blown attack once since then, however abt once a week I get a slight shadow, today I got a moderate attack abt a 4/10 which signifies I’m still in the cycle.

I have abt 28 gs left of APE (albino penis envy) and I really don’t want to have an unpleasant visual trip again however I believe if I take one more small dose, the cycle has a high chance of being busted.

Is there anyone who has any suggestions on the amount I should take for this next dose? I was thinking .3-.5gs, but I really don’t want to visually trip.

Some other people have suggested to change the strain so I don’t have the potent trip but I spent a good amount on this ounce (specifically for busting and future busting), and I have no other sources to buy.

Anything helps! Thank you guys.

Hey guys,

First things first. Anyone who is desperate like we all are in the midst of a cycle, check our clusterbusters.org, sign up for the private forums, and reach out to the community, I have had 100% of my questions answered there.

With regard to the title, I successfully busted my cycle after 4 doses with psilocybin mushrooms. For the most part. Mid April, I met with my first cycle in 2 years, that almost took me out, and I mean literally, referring to the nickname of our condition. After my initial 3 doses, I felt really no change, had my usual 1-2 10/10 attacks, and would have to go to my classes in the morning (law major in college). The only thing was I never got attacks in the day which was huge but I was still a zombie. My fourth dose I bought a new batch of shrooms, which I was unaware of them being the most potent strain, lemon tek style, on an empty stomach, after cardio, lol. I tripped ballsack, by accident (clusterbusters don’t advise big trips). With that said, I felt 2 slap-back attacks after the huge unpleasant trip the day after, and following that I have not had a single attack since. However, I have had mini shadows, and a slight tingle where my attacks are. Which is my indication I’m still in a cycle.

I’m sure if I took one more small dose I’d completely bust the cycle, but I am frightened with the thought of even ingesting smallest bit of shrooms at this moment lmao. Eve though the small shadows and tingles are causing absolutely no problems to my life. It sucks not being able to have a social drink at my roommates grad parties, get together, and social events.

My regime this bust:
*make sure you’re off all pharmaceuticals/psilocybin blockers for 5 days prior to mushroom dosing, blockers listed on clusterbusters.org*
Dose 1: 1.0g
Dose 2: 1.5g
Dose 3: 1.2g
Dose 4: 1.5g (Albino Penis Envy strain)

Vitamin regime:
10k IU Vitamin d3
200mcg K2
2000 omega 3
1g turmeric
1g quercitin
8g vitamin c everyday for 7 days (right when the cycle started, stopped after 7 days)
400mg magnesium glycinate before bed
Melatonin as needed

Extras (works for me and many others in forums):
Ginger powder shot before bed
Ginger powder shot at onset of shadow
Coffee at onset of shadow
Santa Cruz paleo electrolytes before coffee

*had no neurologist during this cycle, so no oxygen, still defeated beast*

My takeaway for you guys:
This condition seems to be like a living being in our heads. Have the mindset you’re going to defeat it, no matter what it takes, because you will. Do not let it defeat you, you are stronger than it. PLEASE stay active and healthy, being inflamed is the worst thing during a cycle, make it so your body can combat the cycle as easy as possible. No matter how tired you are, cook that healthy food, get up early still, keep running, walking, stretching, meditating, and praying. Don’t let the beast bring you down, keep living your life. Take a minute to think about how you can explain it to your friends, it will make life much easier.

LASTLY, if you’re like me, and never in your life have you had anyone that understood what you were going through. Please show them the video “Beast: living with suicide headaches” by ClusterBusters Inc. on YouTube. It is the one and only thing that has ever helped me explain what I’m going through to my friends, family and even girlfriend. It’s the best way to also explain that you’re not crazy for taking mushrooms for this condition.

Sorry for the long post. I hope it helps you guys.

Keep your head up🤝
