Living with Long COVID can be very hard. People with this condition often feel tired all the time, have trouble thinking, and may feel sad or anxious for many weeks or even months. Sometimes, normal treatments are not enough to help these symptoms. This is where our proven psilocybin therapy may offer new hope.
In this article we describe the clinical applications and potential benefits of our evidence-based psilocybin therapies for people with Long COVID.
What Is Long COVID?
Long COVID (also known as Post-COVID Syndrome, or post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection) is when people still feel sick weeks, months or even years after having COVID-19 and/or after being vaccinated against COVID-19. Even after the virus is gone, symptoms can stay. Common problems caused by Long COVID (LC) include:
Brain fog
Fatigue (extreme tiredness)
- Cognitive impairment
Anxiety and/or depression
Trouble sleeping
Headaches
Inflammation
- Chronic pain
Muscle and/or joint pain
Loss of smell and/or taste
Mood swings.
Long COVID affects both the body and the mind. Many people with long COVID often feel misunderstood, stuck, and desperate for solutions.

What Is Psilocybin?
Psilocybin is a naturally occurring psychedelic compound found in certain mushrooms (often called “magic mushrooms” or “shrooms”) that has been used in spiritual practices for centuries. In recent years, scientific research has begun to reveal its potential therapeutic benefits, particularly in the treatment of mental health conditions such as depression, anxiety, ADHD, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Psilocybin has also been proven to be effective in the treatment of neurological and neurodegenerative diseases, such as Parkinson’s Disease, chronic pain (including neuropathic pain), Alzheimer’s Disease, cluster headache, brain injury and cognitive decline.
- Macrodosing psilocybin: When taken in a larger, supervised dose (called “macrodosing” or “high-dosing”), it can bring powerful new insights and help the brain reset. Psilocybin can create a strong change in how we think and feel; sometimes called a psychedelic experience.
- Microdosing psilocybin: In microdosing, people take only a tiny amount. It doesn’t cause hallucinations or a “trip,” but it may still support mental and physical health over time.

Potential Benefits For People With Long COVID
While scientific research is still new, early reports and various of our succesful client cases proof that psilocybin may help people with Long COVID in the following ways:
1. Mental Health Support
Many Long COVID patients feel anxious, depressed, or hopeless. Psilocybin can help by:
Lifting the mood
Reducing anxiety
Creating a sense of peace and connection
Helping people feel more present and alive.
Even one macrodose session, guided by one of our professionals, can offer a deep emotional reset.
2. Brain Fog and Cognitive Function
Psilocybin may stimulate neuroplasticity; the brain’s ability to heal and grow new connections. This may help improve:
Memory
Focus
Mental clarity
- Creativity
Problem-solving.
Microdosing can support this brain healing over time, especially after a full macrodose.
3. Reducing Inflammation
Various experts believe Long COVID symptoms are caused by chronic inflammation in the body and brain. Early research shows psilocybin might lower inflammation and support the body’s return to balance.
4. Better Sleep and Energy
After macrodosing, many people report improved sleep. With microdosing, some also feel:
More energy during the day
Less mental fatigue
A more stable mood.

How Can Psilocybin Help With Long COVID?
1. Macrodosing—A Big Jump Forward
A single large dose of psilocybin, given under our careful professional supervision, may help “reset” brain networks. Many people say they feel a deep sense of relief, clarity, or happiness afterward. This can be a big step forward in breaking the cycle of low mood, anxiety, or fatigue that is so common in Long COVID.

2. Microdosing—Small Doses for Ongoing Support
After the macrodose session, continuing with microdosing can help keep the positive changes going. Many people report:
Improved mood and energy.
Sharper thinking and less brain fog.
Less anxiety or sadness.
More motivation to enjoy life again.
By gently supporting the brain and body, microdosing may help you feel better every day without strong or uncomfortable effects.
