I'm hijacking this thread originally posted by scot in Oct. 2015 and turning it into a thread for use of Psilocybin in treating of mental illness and PSSD. This thread will serve as the center for discussing Psilocybin's role in bettering our experience of the world.
Psilocybin is illegal in most countries. I do not endorse use of any illegal substance. I am posting these links for HARM REDUCTION PURPOSES becuase I have been speaking with some in the PSSD community who have been testing psychedelics with great results. Please note below the possible risks of psilocybin that I link below as well. An informed tripper is a safer tripper!
