“psilocybin may promote neuroplasticity, meaning it can facilitate changes in the brain's structure and function.”
Like I said, mind opening.
The prospective, longitudinal study — the largest prospective survey on naturalistic psilocybin use to date — found significant improvements in mental health, well-being and psychological functioning. A majority of participants experienced persistent reductions in anxiety, depression and alcohol misuse; increased cognitive flexibility, emotion regulation, spiritual well-being and extraversion; and reduced neuroticism and burnout after psilocybin use. A minority of survey participants reported continuing negative effects such as mood fluctuations and depressive symptoms.

Open your mind up to what? If you’re not suffering from any of these listed ailments or afflictions what would you need to open your mind too? That’s not for me to say there’s no uses for it. I’m just pointing out that most people are looking to escape not to heal.

Psilocybin isn't an escape but a pathway to ones inner thoughts. Psychedelics have been used for centuries by indigenous people for spirituality and healing. All people suffer in some form or fashion. It's part of the human condition.

Maybe you could find your inner thoughts without it? And indigenous people would not be what I would point to as great success..

I’m sorry you’re suffering.

Except they erroneously believe the active ingredient in the plant they're using transports them to another world. You can have the same thing today without messing up your brain. It's called the internet. Even then...

It’s funny, listening to someone pretend it’s a spiritual thing. It’s not, it’s just mind altering drug even if your mind is only altered for a short time. Is it possible that some people can be helped by it? I’m sure it is. Is it more likely that people who don’t need It will abuse it. It’s a guarantee.

Just like medicinal marijuana dispensaries. No doubt it helps some people but plenty get a prescription just to have an easy way to get high. And anyone using this stuff at home away from experienced supervision runs the risk of overdoing it. The drug itself might not kill you like fentanyl might, but you can harm yourself in numerous ways while under the influence. Or harm others.

Yep, even in this video that paints a really Rosie picture of using this drug talks about you really need a “sober guide” if you’re going to use the drug safely. Lol just what I want another stoner maroon watching and babysitting me while I’m stoned and on a trip sounds really safe.

Yes, I agree. If you’re having a mental health crisis like you are, it would be a good idea to look into some treatments like this. I hope you have a good guide to monitor you.
You know you're just exposing your own projecting right? Probably have a bottle of Jack in your hand right now.

🤷‍♂️ I’m projecting that you just said you needed magic mushrooms for your mental condition? That’s what you said not me. I was telling you I hope it works for you.. and that I hopeyou had a good babysitter to watch you so you don’t hurt yourself while you’re on your trip.

It doesn’t appear to be working very well.

This isn’t shocking because most of your heroes are complete losers and that’s who you’re patting yourself after in your life.. pick some better people to idolize and the outcome will be noticeably better for you.

Indeed when I was a teenager, a friend of the family’s kid took LSD and jumped off the roof of his house. No one is exactly sure what happened if he had a bad trip or what he was pretty troubled kid to begin with, and had been experimenting with lots of different drugs. Unfortunately, it didn’t help him.

I’ve heard of people with PTSD and things like that being helped by this so I’m not discounting that it can help people.
