Been microdosing 🍄 since June 6. Not sure if I'm noticing anything at all?

So it's been almost 4 weeks. I started with only 50mg of golden teacher (one capsule) with the protocol of one day on and two days off. Also using lions mane. After about two weeks I upped to 100mg (two capsules) since I wasn't really feeling anything. I've been on celexa an SSRI at 20mg for years. I'm thinking this is the reason why I'm not feeling anything. I will say my dreams have been super vivid though. I guess that's something! I also added some San Pedro cactus a week ago to see if the synergy would help (500mg one capsule).The reason I started the Microdosing is because I'm almost 39 and I'm trying to grow spiritually. I feel like something is missing in my life. Been working with a therapist and she suggested getting connected to nature again. I'm an addict and been sober of alcohol and heroin since 2012. I explained to her that in AA and NA my higher power was nature. I love looking at the mountains and stars etc. I was really into trail running (tough to do in New England outside Boston). Was nice it combined trails in the woods plus running, was a win win! Def need to get back into that. Anyway I think that aside from dreaming vividly I'm not noticing much. I'll continue to microdose the same protocol and see if anything happens. Eventually I will taper off the celexa but it really has helped me with anxiety especially when I suffered from panic attacks in the past. I just wish I found the natural medicine sooner before I started the pharma medicine. Sorry for the rant. Any tips / insight welcome!

Been on celexa for 7 years interested in microdosing 🍄 to taper off

I've been trying to find an answer but it seems to be case by case, but will I not notice any effects until I taper off celexa (SSRI) while microdosing mushrooms? I'm interested in trying for all the benefits people notice when using them, however I'm on celexa and dependent on it unfortunately. Long term goal will be to get off it but am definitely nervous. If this type of question isn't allowed I apologize!
