    This skit is based on stereotypes. Shrooms are incredibly powerful and important. You don’t see things like that. Your conditioning is loosened enough to drop the delusional bullshit. They can bring clarity, not hallucinations.

    Micro-dosing mushrooms is said to have all the positive effects of a full on trip, without the coyote wizard wall melting experience part of it. I’m a 42 year old guy with a good job and a family, and I honestly think that psilocybin, when used properly, has incredible value and amazing potential in today’s world. That being said, talking to wall melting coyote wizards is always a good time too. Each to their own I say.

    Fun fact, because magic mushrooms grow so readily in the UK it isn’t illegal to pick them, only to process them into another form for consumption. All we ever had to do during the season was find a field with sheep. Sheep aren’t hippies, unlike cows who love ‘shrooms, and they eat around the clumps that grow. Crazy times!

    This may be a satire on drug commercials, but the subject of depression is very real. Depression curtails your ability to grow new neurons in the hippocampus, the science of neurogenesis. Yes, certain activities can grow new neurons even in older people. Such as laughter, sex, exercise, study, but depression or sadness stops it. So these mushrooms may be a life saver!

    These experiments showing how mushrooms (or also LSD) helped depression, et al, are NOT new. There were several such back in the 60s, and every year or 2, i read about yet another study, with the same positive results. But I guess after all the weed legalization, it’s getting more public awareness now.

    Well, not exactly. Psilocybin interrupts the negative feedback pathways in your mind, much like an electric shock does but gentler. With the right setting and trained assistants it can be helpful to establish and reinforce better pathways in the brain . You can see that this might be misused or done incorrectly and cause a lot of harm: it is no recreational drug, but given the choice I would do psilocybin over electro-convulsive therapy any day.

    Well, I have to admit that on the occasions I indulged in shrooms, my depression always took a huge time-out – but boy, were the side effects a force to be reckoned with before I discovered the concept of microdosing (not all of them were negative, though, but the huge majority of them were of the “Whoa – I _really_ didn’t sign up for that, but as long as this doesn’t go any further, I’m okay with it” quality).

    And about “Peyote Coyote”:
    I first met the lad when I was a teenager and had popped some shrooms for the second time, and back then he was a brash and obnoxious loudmouth who actually scared me.
    The second time we met was when I was in my mid-twenties, and he was still as brash and obnoxious, but somehow he wasn’t able to scare me anymore.
    And the third time we met was about three years ago and that was when things really changed: he first tried to be an obnoxious asshat as he was before, but then I sat him down for a serious conversation in which I also explained to him in detail that one of the hobbies of my two very resolute large toms I’m living with is chasing dogs if they don’t observe common rules of courtesy (e.g. “never chase cats but do approach them very slowly, carefully and in a polite manner” as well as “sniffing a cat’s rear end is a very intimate thing to do, so don’t rush it but take your time”), and that seems to have done the trick.

    Because since then he’s a very good boy who still retains a very healthy, entertaining and funny amount of sass, but he also does know now how far he may go – and since then we actually mutually enjoy our company when I get my hands on a good batch of shrooms, and every time we meet, we have fun, enjoy ourselves and frolic the fuck out in a civilised manner.

    So: _never_ be afraid of Coyote, but confront him head-on and set things straight.
    Because yes, Coyote _is_ a trickster, a scoundrel and a fucking brat at times who really likes to test his boundaries. But from my personal experience, if you give him a _really_ serious talking-to just once, he actually can become a quite well-behaved and enjoyable companion. In fact, we’ve met a few times since that third encounter and since then, the rascal actually starts to grow on me (and while I do like dogs as well, I’m actually a onepercenter cat person for decades, so I’d say that must mean something).
