I can't believe that they are even talking about regulation. This has helped MANY get off Benzos - which is much worse than Amanita; Fact.

FDA and other regulatory bodies have this wrong again. Of course macro doses can be extremely dangerous - so are most psych meds; see antipsychotics and benzos, of course. Many antidepressant classes can be dangerous too if not used carefully; see MAO inhibitors and food.

Amanita - when dried and dehydrated properly has "some" Ibo but most is converted to Muscimol which is mild and when taken in microdose, hospitalization is rare. I DON'tT believe the report that this woman was just microdosing - you can microdose 500mg capsules 6 times a day too; plus - you never know what else was going on.

Personally: I suffer from depression AND anxiety and when it works (if not taken daily; in my experience), it worked wonders. Most people will feel - either not well after just one or two doses - but many will feel great after one or two doses. Those not feeling good, stop taking it. Simple as that. I've tried psilo and I didn't feel good so I stopped; big deal...
