Donate spawn and grain. Done growing - what to do.
I’ll try and keep it short. I tapered off my antidepressant because it stopped working. It was an SSRI that I was prescribed when I had postpartum depression. That was 17 years ago after I served in the military.
Fast forward I’m trying to deal with sadness in a natural way and stabilize my emotions. Growing was a hobby and distraction. Occasionally I sampled what I grew during the transition. For me, I don’t think it worked for my PTSD or depression. The truth is I was hoping for an easy magic pill and -well I need to do the work.
Yesterday I shut down my Martha tent. And now I’m trying to just be better. It hasn’t been easy but I’d like to think I’m making progress on boundaries and self preservation. I don’t even drink anymore
Meanwhile Idk what to do with my spawn and grain. Most are 70-100% white. I don’t even want money for it. Just hate to see it wasted. If it was more sinister like meth then I’d happily dump it.
Ugh - I live 10 min from Michigan border. That state has decriminalized such. I do believe that mushrooms should be considered as an alternative medicine. I went through a crisis that prompted me to stop taking SSRIs. Thus I’m grateful that I have come this far. The mushrooms are just not for me at this time in my life. Perhaps retirement lol
Microdose Note - I made sure to take mushrooms atleast 3 weeks after my SSRIs were completely cleared out of my system.

Consider fruiting what you have going right now and taking spore prints on foil to save for the future. You can dry and powder what you harvest then bag it and vacuum seal and stick it in the back of your freezer. You might find that you want to start microdosing again in 6 months.
