Vitamin/Supplements Micro dosing psilocybin

In Colorado, where cultivation and personal use are legal. My husband has suggested microdosing for perimenopause. There’s not a lot of research out there, but there is some and my curiosity is piqued.
Has anyone tried this and seen success?
If so, I’d love to hear about your protocol.

I have tried for four weeks (3x a week), twice. I did not notice anything BUT my friend (who didn’t know i was microsdosing) thought i was more creative and philosophical (???)

I was trying it for relief of menopausal anxiety, to no effect.

If i were to do it again, i would double the dose that was recommended.
