Do you think shrooms would help with anything since it creates more connections in the brain?

[@JTSA1234]

Neurotransmitters are not the issue. GOM deposits in our blood vessels preventing proper brain flow is the problem.

I’ve always wondered. My mom has CADASIL and I’m curious about psilocybin mushrooms and lions mane mushrooms.
