Struggling with mushroom addiction

[OffBrandSpen]

I've been trying to reduce my mushroom addiction. I recently got the achievement for maxing it out and things have gone down hill since then ha ha.

Biggest thing I'm trying to figure out is how I can get my hands on more. I found the green grate that spawns more occasionally but other then that, I've picked all the naturally growing ones I could find.

does eating the mushroom food also help with it? I've been afraid to try eating those. also, any tips on how to vurb the addiction? so far I spend a lot of time in the sauna and wait till the mushroom need is almost maxed out before consuming one.

I havnt had much luck lowering it though. the need for them fills up really fast.

Mushroom addiction is pretty much hard mode in this game is a tough to heal. Consuming mushrooms actually will change your eat habits from normal food to mushroom laced food and will increase your infection rate.

You are doing good so far waiting till near full before eating one will help. Another thing is eating mushrooms with the lowest possible magic gain will help. If it's maxed out and you can't get it down, I recommend a trip to the doctor and check your stats. Doc should be able to help with that in some way.

I am not as versed in mushrooms as other addictions but I know you can find a vending machine with mushrooms at Tenement B behind O-mart. Max Masher has a big stock of mushrooms you can pick. Deekula B or C has a mushroom seller on a doorbell. Of course you can grow your own in your apartment as well. Although not sure where to find mushroom spores.

Try upgrading your Sauna if you have the materials and cash as better saunas mean better control.

How do I beat the shroom addiction?

I've already tried letting it max out before consuming one for close to a week.

I went to the doctors but I can't get prescription or growth removal because of money.

I went cold turkey on the shrooms for another week and went to see the doctor, but he told me I had a clean bill of health. I still have the shroom addiction not budging from 100%

I tried fungicide but it does nothing but boost my mood for a moment.

Am I bugged or is there something else to the mechanic?

What I ended up doing was taking one last hit of mushrooms to get rid of that 100% need. I was basically in the same boat where I went cold turkey for about a week and that 100% need was not decreasing even with daily saunas. I smoked 1 shroom rollie (since I believe they have no chance of fungal infection and are fairly low potency) After that my mushroom need went away completely.
It seems like it might slightly be bugged; idk if it's an intended mechanic but it does seem to get "stuck" at 100% and knocking it down to 0 by taking something seems to unstick it.

I can confirm this method seems to fix it. It is bugged by spaghetti code, probably. That status isn't just a visual bug, it affected my mental health too. But at least, now it finally goes away for good
