Appreciate the quote, I should’ve specified: from HN folks. Sometimes there is a delta between public guidance and others with experience.

All suggested resources are welcome, use case is someone with crippling anxiety.

From for a friend, 80-100 mcg is pure bliss without the psychedelic effects kicking in too much.

Do read more on how to do it properly though. Many factors can have greater impact on the experience than the actual dose.

For therapeutic effects (not recreational) might recommend the smallest dose that’s accessible and scaling from there. Ex. Taking a 100mcg tab and dividing it into fourths. This will accustom your friend to the new feelings and lowing the chances of an anxiety attack and allow them a reference point if they want to do it again, increase the dose, or abstain. LSD is known to be anti-addictive so having some leftover should be considered safe.
