    @PsilocybinOR no wonder. Johns Hopkins has found that people can get benifits by self-medicating. Those exspensive therapists are not needed. https://t.co/EZixyKhNiI

Abstract Synopsis

  • This study followed 2,833 adults planning to use psilocybin outside of clinical settings, collecting data before and after their use over a period of up to 23 months, and found that most participants experienced long-term improvements in mental health, such as reduced anxiety, depression, and alcohol misuse, along with increased well-being and cognitive flexibility.
  • The participants were mainly white, college-educated men from the U.S., who used dried psilocybin mushrooms mostly for self-exploration, typical doses being around 3.1 grams, and the study noted that a small percentage reported lingering negative effects like mood swings or depression.
  • Overall, the findings suggest that naturalistic psilocybin use could have lasting positive mental health effects, although some individuals may experience negative side effects, and this is based on the largest prospective survey to date examining such use outside of clinical research.]
