Ep. 80 | Psilocybin Mushroom Dosing 101

80. How to Dose Psilocybin Mushrooms: From Micro to Museum to MacrodoseHow much psilocybin is too much? How do you know if Golden Teacher or Albino Penis Envy is right for your journey? In this episode, April Pride tackles one of the most common—and misunderstood—questions in the psychedelic space: “What dose should I take?” Drawing from lived experiences, expert advice, and a clear-eyed look at mushroom potency, this episode is a smart, irreverent guide to navigating your dose based on intention, strain, and context. Whether you're microdosing for creativity, planning a weekend trip, or exploring ego dissolution, April helps listeners calibrate safely and intentionally—without getting kicked out of a museum.🔵 Key Takeaways-There’s no “right” dose—only the right dose for your intention. A microdose, museum dose, and ego-dissolving macrodose all serve different purposes.-Strain matters. Golden Teacher is a great entry point; Albino Penis Envy is up to 4x more potent and better for seasoned trippers.-Body weight doesn’t determine dose. Fixed doses deliver consistent results across body types, according to new research.-Psilocybin potency peaks in the first 90 minutes. Use timers to dose smartly and avoid underwhelming or overwhelming experiences.-Methods matter. Lemon tekking and tea each change the onset and intensity—choose based on how fast or slow you want to go.Learn more about this episode, including guests and resources on substack:https://aprilpride.substack.com/p/psilocybin-mushroom-dosing-101Hosted by April PrideSign up for April’s newsletter on Substack at https://aprilpride.substack.com/ or at getsetset.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow on IG: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@getsetset⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ / YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠youtube.com/@getsetset⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ / X: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@getsetset Get full access to APRIL PRIDE at aprilpride.substack.com/subscribe
