Magic-Mushroom Treat Severe Depression

In the News

Hey everybody!

Did you know that magic mushroom could treat severe depression? As trial suggests on BBC news.

Im looking forward to try this! Sounds great. Investigations suggest that;

After one 25mg dose of Comp360 psilocybin, alongside psychotherapy:

one in three were no longer diagnosed as depressed at three weeks

one in five saw a significant improvement at 12 week

Temporary fix perhaps but could lead to future psychoses perhaps.

I knew somebody many years ago who was taking magic mushrooms and when he asked somebody the time their arm was coming out further and further and further and they replied I'm sorry I haven't got a watch on.

It's certainly research worth exploring. There's a documentary on Netflix, Magic Medicine (2018) that may be related to this article - www.netflix.com/gb/title/81409016

There are a number of non-hallucinogenic mushrooms / fungi that are recommended for their beneficial mental health / brain heath properties. Lion’s mane, Reishi, Chaga and Cordyceps are rated highly. They are available at health food stores, such as Planet Organic, in various forms.

I've been to a couple of cafes that have Lion’s mane lattes on the menu.

I strongly suggest that any treatment for the treatment of depression, that might cause thoughts of suicide is best avoided.

I also suggest that the journalist who wrote the article (supposedly quoting a psychiatrist*), is totally incompetent, as is anyone who writes "an window" when most seven year olds know that it is "a window".

*Probably got mixed up between a psychiatrist and a psychopath 😀
