Now would be a good time to get Gwern's excellent and interesting study out again [0] and i'll also take the opportunity add a further link [1], the content of which I found extremely interesting and thought provoking given both my experimental history with substances (including both micro and macrodosing LSD) and my background in Biochemistry and as a Doctor. [1] looses almost all credibility in my beliefs when they say micro-dosed LSD makes you (believe it or not) too creative for most paying jobs
I don't believe there is any evidence for microdosing making you more creative.
What I do believe I got out of microdosing however was the incredibly mischievous feeling that I was doing something so naughty, that it lifted my whole day and mood.
So kids, don't waste your cash (or acid) on microdosing (unless you really want to, but don't be under any illusions this is going to subtly or radically change your life in any way shape or form outside of the placebo component) it's the modern day snake oil and per [3] I would suggest that the comment It seems that the “ubersmart twentysomething set” is looking for a “healthy” alternative to Adderall is pretty on-point.
