This whole idea that Amanita Muscaria was used to induce the "Berserker Rage" was based upon speculation by a scholar who actually knew absolutely nothing about the the effects of Fly Agaric. This bit of speculation has been repeated so much that some (even scholars at times) have taken the speculation as fact.
The actual effects of Amanita Muscaria are quite the opposite of those one would expect to be used to induce a battle trance, being very sedate & introspective rather than agitated & animated.
Please stop promoting this old, unproven piece of speculation as fact.

Berserker was an official position in which you were given a bear skin as a badge of office (Berserker = Bear Skin) and served as the kings personal champion and guard. You would fight duels for him or be sent as a "messenger" to any vassals that were misbehaving. It was a combination of actual warrior stuff and state craft. They were highly equipped and trained warriors that acted as the kings right hand, not naked drug fueled savages. Fantasy writing and tabletop games are where we got the brutal naked drug psycho picture of what a Berserker was.

Those wore some glorious times i Scandinavian history.They wore tough working farmers who didn't bow down for no one. So it's sad to see the State of Sweden today. Swedish population kneel and give up their heritage, customs and traditions for muslims and other invaders just to please some other countries. But there is a feeling of new wind in the sails and a hope for a better stronger future.

Few people would be capable of fighting on a trip. Or stupid enough to try it. Soldiers were tested with LSD as an incapacitant. The squaddies ended up laughing, climbing trees, and babbling.
(ps- I have witnessed LSD etc bringing on terrible mental illness in people. It should never be recommended as recreational drug)

Microdosing during depressive episodes has completely changed my life after years of trauma, PTSD, addiction... I hope more people have affordable access to it
