I’ve been waiting since 2021 for my sense of smell and taste to come back :(
Anecdotal but several of my friends claimed that psilocybin therapy restored their sense of smell.
That is interesting. Psilocybin has been shown to grow new brain neural pathways. It does seems plausible.

Another option is Ketamine, wich also promotes BDNF. Some countries make use of it as a treatment for depression
Someone tell me when this becomes prescribable
You can just pick em yourself in the autumn
Or ask Uncle Ben for help, takes almost zero effort and you reap heaps.
Uncle Ben??
Mushroom spores sprayed in an Uncle Ben package.
Works for all kinds of fungi.
Ohhhh interesting. Will have to look into this…
There was a subreddit about uncleben brand rice, which is sold pre-cooked in pouches. The sub was not about eating the rice, but as a growth medium for various fungi. The rice is the perfect nutrient and moisture content, and it’s sterile. Mushroom spores are prone to contamination for a couple weeks while they get established, so it’s a fairly reliable way to get started, without owning a pressure cooker. Any pouch of shelf stable pre-cooked grain should be a suitable substrate for this type of mushroom, which in the wild actually grows on manure.
So genuine question… If I did this and checked the clear window of the bag, about how long would I have to wait to open the bag. Hypothetically if I shot some spores into a bag and don’t notice anything after a few weeks… Would it be a loss?
I’m not good with mushrooms… I’m not a mycologist…
Holy crap, now that you mention it, im pretty sure I’ve felt something similar from shrooms
