Don't have experience with micro-doses. But any dose wears off. So at a certain point, you basically have a micro dose. But there's not a single point in the whole LSD experience that would make me a better engineer. Of course, it might for other people, although I seriously doubt it. Maybe in other fields (marketing, sales, etc).

Have'nt tried microdosing. But when a full dose wears off, it would be natural to be a bit mentally exhausted from the trip so I can't imagine it's comparable to a microdose.

Exactly.

10µg and 100µg are very different. You don't trip from 10µg as you would from 100µg.

You may feel a little bit more energetic, a little bit happier, conversations flow better etc... But it's all very subtle.

From the article: > In fact, a common problem for new experimenters, according to Fadiman, is that people are used to feeling the effects of drugs, and a micro-dose of LSD can sometimes be less perceptible than a cup of coffee.

Coming down is not the same as a microdose.
