Psychedelic film Psychedelic microdosing involves consuming sub-threshold doses (microdoses) of serotonergic psychedelic drugs like LSD and psilocybin to potentially enhance creativity, energy, emotional balance, problem-solving abilities, and to address anxiety, depression,[1] and addiction.
[10] Microdosers typically have lower incomes and education levels, with no specific employment type associated.
[10] A separate survey of Reddit users found no significant difference in age, sexual orientation, social class, or education level between microdosers and non-microdosers.
However, microdosers were more likely to be male, less religious, and reported a lower incidence of anxiety or substance use disorders.
[14] The first documented instance of psychedelic microdosing may be the Grateful Dead's use of low and sub-psychedelic doses of DOM as a stimulant in the late 1960s.
