One theory i've been looking into lately is the idea of psilocybin mushrooms, commonly known as “shrooms,” potentially being used to increase neuroplasticity.
as we know neuroplasticity refers to the brain’s ability to adapt, reorganise itself, and form new neural connections.(we already know this though jfl) If this process could be enhanced, it could theoretically become easier to alter deeply ingrained patterns of thinking and behaviour etc (for example it could help you ingraine a math formula in your head so you could easily master it)
this is genuinely high iq because i took time out of my day to research the way psilocybin functions in the body (mainly because im a druggie)
Although shrooms contain psilocybin, this compound does not directly affect the brain. however once consumed, enzymes in the body convert psilocybin into psilocin, which is the psychoactive compound that interacts more directly with brain activity.
An especially interesting aspect is how chemically similar psilocin is to serotonin (5-HT,). given their identicality, this is precisely why psilocin can bind to the 5-HT2A serotonin receptor, which plays a role in mood, perception, and cognition. In theory, this interaction could temporarily increase the brain’s adaptability, making it more open to forming new neural pathways.
This leads to an interesting possibility regarding depression. If depressive thinking is partly linked to rigid and repetitive thought patterns, then increased neuroplasticity may theoretically help the brain develop healthier ways of processing thoughts and emotions. this idea is going overboard but shrooms are generally safe, dont try at home.
on that note, the effects of shrooms arent as significant as registered stimulants or brain peptides like adderal or semax,
HOWEVER
i've dabbled in extensive drug research and found a method that could theoretically boost the neuroplasticity and cognitive benifits from minor to extremely significant, theoretically more than stimulants such as ritalin.
this was done by acknowledging how shrooms work in the first place (hence i included it earlier in the thread) it functions via binding to your HT2A (seratonin receptor) so a smart ass nigga like me concluded that usage of seratonin receptors such as
--CB2 cannabinoid receptor (Preclinical research has demonstrated that activating the CB2 cannabinoid receptor directly signals the brain to increase 5-HT2A receptor sensitivity and density.)
--MAO inhibitors (im too lazy to explain the mechanism of this)
--pH modulators (source- trust me bro)
--dookiebootybutt59's sperm ( lowers your cortisol)
TL;DR
taking shrooms before studying is high iq and stacking illegal drugs on top of it will make you albert einstein level, my source is chatgpt so trusts me
