But if you take shrooms, you could very well cause yourself to have schizophrenia.

Expecting some shroom news this fall. The pushers of the measure will be pushing.

Shrooms are on the MA ballot (Q#4). Any other states?

These studies and claims have going in for more than 60 years now.

All bs.

“..curb mental illness...”

What is a bigger mental illness that can be helped with psilocybin, an eating disorder or a trans freak who thinks he can actually change his sex to a female after getting his testicles cut off? /s

A number of people have been helped by mushrooms, but I think it’s only when they are micro-dosed. That makes sense to me.

However, more studies in larger groups of people with BDD are needed to verify the effectiveness of the treatment and how long it will last, the researchers noted

Recently, Dr. Fauci used large groups of people in SW China to do his Double-Blind studies on vaccines and boosters. I wonder if they're ready to roll again?

Strange fixation with the idea that psychomimetic drugs somehow offer a cure for people who got that way without using drugs. Sort of a latter day homeopathic solution. It began with LSD, many decades ago, Timothy Leary at Harvard, and the Merry Pranksters in California. Nobody tries to use LSD for treatment now.

More recently it has been claims that marijuana treats PTSD. I worked with hundreds of veterans who had been using marijuana for many years, and after many years their lives were still a mess. But somehow if a doctor writes a script for it, it attains magical curative powers.

I guess based on the popular 60s fiction story “The Yaqui Way of Knowledge,” the goobers are now gobbling magic mushrooms. Maybe they will turn into hawks at night. Could be.

After 60-70 trips on them from mushrooms 45 years ago
My suggestion is go slow

One to three grams of dried is plenty for all but Oort Belt pros

We always had fresh off the cow pile

Never took dry ones ?

But that’s what I’m told by those who currently take them

The side effect unfortunately is an employment disorder. Dudes tend to never hold a steady job thereafter.

Giving psychedelic drugs to people who have mental illness issues is a recipe for disaster.

They never give up on this crap, do they?
