Psilocybin Education & Mushroom Safety Resources
This library collects articles on psilocybin, storage, set and setting, and related questions. Topics come from conversations at our Ann Arbor store at 2007 S State St. The aim is clear explanation with appropriate limits, not a promise of particular effects.

Questions About Psilocybin Education
Where should a first-time user start?
Read our microdosing guide, our set-and-setting guide, and the Golden Teacher strain page in our strain guide. Golden Teacher is the classic beginner strain — balanced, forgiving, moderate potency, well-documented across decades of research and community reporting.
Are magic mushrooms legal in Michigan?
Under Ann Arbor City Council Resolution R-20-362 (September 2020), enforcement of laws prohibiting entheogenic plants and fungi is the lowest law-enforcement priority in Ann Arbor. State law has not changed — Michigan still classifies psilocybin under state controlled substances statutes — but the Ann Arbor policy is what allows MycoAndCo to operate at 2007 S State St. Always know your local laws and travel restrictions.
Can I microdose while taking SSRIs?
The interaction between SSRIs and psilocybin is not well studied and results are mixed. Some users report reduced effects, others report unpredictable reactions. Never combine psilocybin with lithium, MAOIs, tramadol, or tricyclic antidepressants — those combinations can trigger dangerous serotonergic reactions. Always consult your prescribing physician before microdosing.
What are set and setting?
Set (your mindset) and setting (your environment) are the two biggest predictors of a positive psilocybin experience. Take your dose only when you are emotionally steady, physically well-fed and hydrated, and in a comfortable indoor space with people you trust. Avoid full doses in unfamiliar environments or during stressful life events.
Where can I get support during a difficult experience?
Emergency support: 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline (call or text 988), Fireside Project (623-473-7433, free psychedelic peer support hotline), or SAMHSA Helpline 1-800-662-4357. These services are free, confidential, and staffed 24/7.
