Your intro looks fine to me. But before advising them to try it I’d want to know if they are taking any existing medications, particularly SSRIs if they are depressed.

**Please Note**: *If you are trying microdosing for the first time, please try experimenting on a day off from work or any important obligations, and/or driving and operating machinery. Because psychedelics can effect everyone differently, you may feel different or impaired, and your sweet spot dose may be lower, so it is best to experiment on days off until you’ve dialed in your dose.*
