Dr. Fadiman talks about micro-dosing with LSD. This piqued my interest
and I decided to give it a try. I happened to have some LSD laying
around.
I decided to try a 10 micro-gram dose per day for 15 days, at which point I will stop.
In order to measure out 10ug, I took one 150ug blotter, placed it
into a chlorine free 20oz bottle of water and shook violently. I then
used a measuring tape to mark off 15 equal sections of water. This is
not precise, but has worked well thus far. I let the Blotter sit in the
bottle overnight, and then shook violently again the following morning
before my first dose. The last time I ingested LSD before this
experience was about 60 days ago.
What follows are my logs over the first 48 hours and change, I will continue to log for the next 13 days.

638a 10ug taken
735a traffic was bad. Want to think I feel something. Maybe tricking myself
800a ok so I definitely feel some elation, and feeling quite social
946a energy levels are much higher than usual, warm feeling all over,
texture and color seem more apparent. spent some time staring intently
at a wall to determine if there were any minor hallucinations, but
nothing
624p so things got busy at work and I forgot about my little
experiment for a while, suffice it to say there have been no negative
consequences thus far. The first thing I thought when I walked in the
door, was that I wanted to take another sip, that if 10ug made me feel
this good, what would 20ug do? Well I'm not going to do that. Going for a
walk at 730 with someone, will update after.
714p I noticed some tracers from my phone's screen in a poorly lit
hallway. I generally see them anyway, this was more pronounced than
usual, but not intense.
930p walk was pretty normal, good walk, good talk, none of which
concerned psychedelics, shower afterward seemed very awesome, a lot more
awesome than a shower usually does. Time for a sandwich and bedtime.
9/26/13
641a my morning sip was a little larger than it should have been, about 15ug taken
758a made it to work, traffic was horrible and I was driving rather
aggressively. Then all of a sudden had the realization that we were all
flowing in the the same stream :D however I find my office's lack of
milk disturbing
1001a my usual time killers (reddit, watching sc2 matches) are quite
un-entertaining today I'm going to try doing something creative
126p after doing some serious problem solving at work I've noticed
that different angles and approaches seem to be apparent rather than
elusive
437p overall today I can only describe myself a hyper (not like caffeine, but like I'm super excited) and absolutely elated.
626p ab muscle spasms while driving home from work today, slight, but noticeable
723p sitting in a white room, when people move, can see silhouettes of where they just were that linger
9/27/13
621a Holy vivid dreams batman! I've been a student of /r/LucidDreaming
for a while, only been successful a few times. Last night I was not
lucid but i remember what seems like days worth of experience. Tonight I
will try to become lucid.
642a 10ug taken...
In summary, micro-dosing seems to greatly enhance my mood and energy
levels I have also found it significantly more easy to perform tasks
that I usually procrastinate. It has also seemed to make time pass more
slowly. I seem to be able to accomplish a greater number of things
during the same interval as previously. During this experiment I have
not ingested any coffee, but have been drinking some mild black tea
daily, which is on par with my normal self. I work in a highrise
building for a large corporation in my city, and no one over the course
of this has asked me if i was feeling OK, or as far as I know had any
other indication that I was acting strange or unusual. I also have a
30-40 minute commute in heavy traffic and have not noticed any reduced
reaction time or extra risk taking. I have however noticed a tendency to
be more apathetic and less aggressive in my driving.
I'll respond to as many questions as I can. So AMA.
