    Hi everyone, my brain feels busy all the time. Even when I’m not doing much, my thoughts keep moving. It’s tiring and makes it hard to enjoy quiet moments. Has anyone found a way to slow that constant mental activity?

    Hey there, I’ve been in that exact place, and it wears you down quietly. For me, the problem wasn’t stress but constant internal motion. I stopped trying to distract myself and focused on slowing my system first. I learned a lot by reading user experiences on Amanita Universe https://amanita-universe.us/ . People described mental busyness as a nervous system that never pauses. I decided to try dried fly agaric carefully and in small amounts. It didn’t knock me out or make me foggy. It simply reduced the speed of my thoughts. Once that happened, quiet moments felt comfortable again. I also cut back on background noise. Over time, my brain stopped feeling like it had to stay busy to survive.
