    Psilocybin - Better Known As Magic Mushrooms

    Oh, the things I have researched and considered taking since understanding I have MS. If you had asked me, ten years ago, if I ever thought I would consider a psychedelic drug I would have emphatically answered, "No way!". But, alas, "never say never" comes to rear it's ugly head and taunt me as life takes me down a different path that I had intended for myself.

    Anyway, has anyone taken these? I have been reading a lot from Paul Stamets. I did start taking Lion's Mane, a type of non-psychedelic mushroom that supports the nervous system. I am interested in any first hand experience, thoughts or advice.

    Thanks!

    I knew people in the '70's that tried magic mushrooms, but haven't heard much about them in the news until recently.

    Here is an article from John Hopkins about University's clinical trial - https://www.jhunewsletter.com/articl...ybin-mushrooms

      There is a really interesting youtube video (and other info) by a guy named Paul Stamets. I will see if I can find the links. He's brilliant.

        Watch this from about minute 59 and on. He starts to talk about the effects of psilocybin on the brain.

          Staments is very knowledgeable when it comes to Mycology. I've taken some of his products but I read that the marketed potency and purity of his products may be questionable. YMMV. Make sure you listen to the Joe Rogan podcasts with Paul, they are very informative.

            Yes, I have watched them. They're quite fascinating.
