BPD & Psychedelic Use

NSFWPsychedelics

Would mushrooms be advisable for someone with BPD?

My form of borderline personality disorder is characterized as the discouraged type, where I often internalize negative feelings instead of having external outbursts. I’ll also have periods of time where I feel pretty stable and don’t notice mood swings for a good while, as I’m mostly affected by external factors such as friends/family stressors.

I’ve only ever tried weed & alcohol before and mainly just weed now. Which has always turned out well and has never caused me problems as I usually get really giggly and stupid.

I do take a mood stabilizer (lamotrigine) but everything I’ve seen tends to say that it won’t affect a trip too much, unlike lithium.

Any advice is appreciated!
