microdosers
Fractional substance users
Microdosers are people who take very small amounts of psychedelic drugs—typically LSD or psilocybin mushrooms—not to get high but to enhance creativity, focus, or mood.
The practice gained popularity in Silicon Valley and among professionals seeking subtle cognitive benefits without perceptible intoxication: Microdosers claim improved productivity and emotional balance.
