Summary

After getting long COVID about ten months before their posts, Flint 50345 crashed hard and had brain fog, fatigue, vertigo and depression. Raising creatine from 10 g to 15 g cleared their brain fog within a day but hurt their stomach for weeks and worsened their sleep. In August 2026, three weekly 2 g doses of magic mushrooms left them 'pretty much LC free', with about 90% of symptoms gone, though 1-2 hours of daily headaches remained.
