Psilocybin: A Journey Beyond the Fear of Death?

I'm not a fan of recreational drug use. I think war on drugs harmed more than helped society. I don't like government intervening with their deep pockets in doctor patient relationships or even to medicate myself.

But this article, ConservativeMind posted interest me as I am a dementia care giver. I was flippant about your article because an article I read about psilocybin. My wife wants to eat a vegan diet I told her to use mushrooms instead of phony meat. I'm not even vegetarian but I like mushrooms.
