New research on magic mushrooms. Great news!

As a controlled medicine, I'm all in favor.

I suffer from debilitating depression and anxiety, but many years ago became known to certain mycology.

This stuff is powerful, and it has the potential to help if in responsible hands.

Not a recreational drug.

More of a tool, a sacred medicine from what I can gather.

The Right to Try bill could open up facets to ill patients.

Sacred medicine for sure.

Oh, I thought they were researching while high on shrooms.

Kidding, but that would be smart of them, though.

This made me laugh, a bunch of Lily or Pfizer scientists going bonkers on boomers

They might actually learn something that way.

You are absolutely right

how the hell is a plant or fungus declared illegal by the government?

death caps, web caps, and autumn skull caps will fuck you up WAY worse than magic mushroom

why aren't they declared illegal?

likewise oleander, deadly nightshade and water hemlock will fuck you up WAY worse than canabis.

why are they not declared illegal?

why isn't comet or drain-o declared illegal. that shit will seriously fuck you up if you eat it or smoke it.

Odd you can possess and carry a firearm or blade, but cannot have a flower or fungi in your own home or private property.

Man, people need to be careful with this crap.



I ate a quater oz while home alone at night when i was a teenager.


I thought i was dead, i was in a tunnel of snakeskin. very crazy.

Then i thought it was a good idea to take some while driving home on the freeway, i remember the moment they kicked in. God must have been there because i have no memory of driving home over 30 mins in a 5 speed.

I just remember being home, and watching my legs turn into a mist, then watching that mist get sucked into my ears.


Very strange!


It was the last time, when the trees attacked me, that made me stop taking them.


Very strange indeed! lol


Thank God he pulled me out of that life! Praise JESUS!

Dude, it will literally make you forget you are even a human for a period of time. It usually comes in waves.


You feel kinda normal, then BLAM, a wave goes over you and you are not even a person anymore.


This stuff is incredibly powerful.


Most people have no idea just how powerful it really it at high doses.

Small dose-1G-1/8, Light high, giggly, extreme laughter, waves of intense feelings wash over you.

Med dose- 1/8 - 1/4, visuals, extreme emotions, some people cry, wonder and awe at the natural word. Waves of inhumanity wash over you.

Heroic does- 1/4 - any, Loss of control, total loss of humanity, total loss of thought, total loss or personality, extreme visuals, waves of humanity wash over you reminding you that you are still alive.

As a person who's eaten plenty of mushrooms in my life, I can't say I'd recommend them to someone who suffers anxiety. It can get pretty intense and if your mind isn't right, can lead to a bad trip.

That being said they can be an amazing experience as well.

I have anxiety and depression. Im on a island in SE Asia. Just did 15G two days ago. Was super intense, kinda not great trip. But its the after effects is why I use them.

Less anxiety/depression
Visual improvements
Less brain fog
Many more benetfits

Been awhile since I had any Shrooms. I've been using 4-AcO-DMT instead. It's an Acetylated Analog of Psilocin(4-HO-DMT). So it basically has the same effects as it breaks down into Psilocin just like Psilocybin(4-PO-DMT) does. Plan on doing another bulk grow soon though...

That and other 'First Nation's' cures should be available at every Rez in North America. (move the rehab centers there would be the way to make it industrial in scale)

Aren't they doing controlled research on terminally ill patients?

Seems wrong now that I put it that way, but I think the bat does swing both ways on this one.

Supposedly, microdosing, or taking acute levels of the active chemical can show promising results in treating depression/anxiety/fatigue.

I agree with some of the above posters though, such is not like alcohol and can see how someone unprepared could flip out on higher doses.


Thinking about things at large and how mankind is always trying self-medication whether it's through pharmaceutical companies or substances small, large, near, and wide....

won't it be nice when we truly don't need anything to make us feel better?

Where we simply are because we are.

That's where my heart rests.


Reminds me of this:


"The grass withers and the flower fades, but the word of our God stands forever."

Yes I'm pretty sure Psilocybin & MDMA have passed Phase 2 FDA Trials. Phase 3 Trails for MDMA are to take place this year. And Phase 3 Psilocybin Trials are being planned...

I love shrooms. I think so clearly and I swear that I have 20/20 vision when I take them. I normally wear contacts or glasses.

It's been so long since I've had any... sex is pretty damn good on them too. LOL

Only downside is I get cramps in my feet from them.

I know what you're talking about. This amazing effect of vision change is rarely discussed. The effect with Shrooms is nothing compared to plain DMT though. The effect is amplified times 10. Things that you are used to looking at in a normal state of consciousness look almost alien. Your vision becomes so sharp, saturated, along with the depth of edges being visually altered. It kinda looks like everything is made up of shiny plastic. Even you yourself will look alien in a way. The sense of touch/feeling is also greatly altered...

I'm with you. I don't see how hardcore hallucinations would benefit someone suffering from anxiety. Maybe so that once they're sober they realize their anxiety is nothing compared to the borderline mushroom induced coma?

I don't know. I wouldn't suggest it to anyone I know was suffering from anxiety. Why not just start a good diet and exercise regiment?

Exercise has been proven to help combat depression, anxiety, and stress.

In the early 1970's there was a team of Doctors working at a Baltimore, MD hospital who were exploring giving controlled doses of LSD to terminally ill (and consenting) patients... They used a sitter/guide (who was familiar with the effects of LSD) for the sessions and also created a comfortable setting/atmosphere for the patients...

A Golden Age is Nigh!!

I'm heralding it!!

I also wouldn't encourage someone with serious anxiety to experiment with hallucinogens to see if it might help them - and I'm not speaking from personal experience here, just simply with consideration for the possibility that they could have a really negative experience that has longer term negative impact on their well-being...

That being said, and hypothetically speaking - the way in which a hallucinogenic trip could potentially help someone suffering from anxiety is that the true source of their anxiety could likely be rooted in a subconscious fear or unresolved mental/emotional material from their past experiences, which has been pushed into the subconscious (mind)... In other words the notion that there is something more deeply embedded within their psyche that is serving as the true cause of the anxiety that manifests in everyday circumstances/situations... To the experiencer, they are likely to perceive that it is actually the life circumstances/situations that are the real cause of the anxiety/anxiousness.

Experiencing a hallucinogenic trip could bring about an altered state of consciousness (non-ordinary state of consciousness) that would enable the individual to experience a state of consciousness that finds itself detached from identification with the body and detached from their normal physical/egoic mind-identified state... From this unique perspective, they may find themselves experiencing a newfound awareness into the actual/real cause of their anxiety... And this would not instantly cure/resolve their anxiety, but after the hallucinogenic experience, they would then have new insight and new 'tools' with which to help themselves consciously navigate their way to healing themselves over time...

Then there is also the possibility that the subconscious fear or subconscious mental/emotional material could manifest itself (in whatever form) during the altered state - rising to the surface of consciousness. Potentially, it could then be confronted, acknowledged, and sufficiently experienced during that altered state and this could serve as a means of the conscious processing that's necessary in order for it to be released and thereby resolved for the individual...

Again, not encouraging anyone to pursue this - I just wanted to comment on what was being discussed above...

Plant medicines are a gateway drug...gateway to Truth!

Governments are ruled by corporations and they do not want the red pill/blue pill scenario facilitated by plant medicines.

Corporations rely on the craving and desiring of people to survive,when ego is disolved these cravings that create ego dissappear as all that is left without ego is universal love and kindness,and that wouldn't do.

Take the medicine,if you are ready to awaken to truly living in the moment.

Getting high on cannabis or mushrooms if you are depressed is the last thing you should be doing.

Set and setting. Microdosing should be fine though. It's nearly season where I am psilocybin semilanceata and it's POWERFUL round here. Mushrooms are better than lsd they are more controllable and they have a mushroom consciousness I've been in rooms where multiple people have had the exact same experiences it really is sorta fungal. I think they might actually be alien lol! I don't quite know where the idea that they alleviate depression and anxiety though. What goes up must come down and often with a bump which itself can cause lifelong depression and anxiety. Not to be taken casually or you will get a bollocking from Mother Earth.

i love this thread and everybody in it <3




used mushrooms in the past and they were were therapeutic for me

the forests in australia have some nice ones

Shrooms made me feel as if I understood the true nature of everything which was beautiful. Common, everyday things and sounds suddenly had deep meaning. The world sparkles again like when you were very young. A lot like peyote.

Im all for psychedelic use but one has to tread catefully. I have experimented with a vast array of psychedelics in my life from lsd, mushrooms, mescaline to super powerful synthetics such as 25c-nBOME. They have helped me a lot in life but it was one of my first mushroom trips which turned bad and real shattering, to this day i suffer HPPD which isnt that big of a deal but studies suggest it may be linked to anxiety which makes me wonder if it has something to do with the anxiety disorder i suffered later in life. Anyways this post is probably not going to mean much to those who arent psychanaughts.

Ill leave it at tread carefully as psychedelics tend to throw more at you than you desire...
