5g of mushrooms, not psilocybin.
comments
Oh yeah, 5g of pure psilocybin would be like taking 400-600g of cubensis. Nana would have found herself perfectly functional but living in an entirely new plane of existence.
Yeah, originally I thought it said a 5g dose of psilocybin, and I was thinking Holy Crap. But then realized it said mushrooms, did a quick search and it said 3.5g.
To be fair, I handle my drugs very badly. My local shop laughs at me because I am the only one they've ever had ask for "The weakest thing you have". So thinking at nearly 50% more than the "average" seems crazy to me.
Depending on the strain, it's not too uncommon of a dose to have a proper 'trip'.
5g seems like a LOT.
The war on drugs promised a drug-free society and instead delivered a Britain in which thousands of young people carry criminal records for non-violent offences that haunt them for the rest of their lives; patients who need essential medicines are denied access to them; and people struggling with substance use are met not with care and support, but with shame and punishment.
Ooof!

‘Who wouldn’t want pure cocaine?’: the radical plan to prevent overdoses with better drugs
Ok hear me out: legalise and make all drugs distributable, but heavily regulated.
Want to buy meth? Here's one dose of pure(tm) meth, and the safe(tm) equipment to consume it. It's taxed to fund the healthcare needed to support it.
Harder drugs come with pamphlets sign posting social support services (funded by said sin tax). Are you taking Heroin to forget your debt problems? Here's who can help. Gotten addicted? Here's who can help. Social programs are funded by the tax gained through drug sales
Just getting a drop of acid for your Pink Floyd marathon? No problem, have fun, you're helping to fund social programs, getting a safer product, that's (more) ethically produced and likely cheaper. Trying to drown your sorrows in oxycodone? We got you.
