Psychedelics saved me from years of uncontrollable depression, anxiety and illicit pill addiction. Imagine carrying heavy chains for over a decade and then all of a sudden that burden is gone. Believe it or not in a couple years they'll be all over for treatment of mental health related issues.

Psychedelic therapy is just one of those great leaps in the mental health space. It’s wonderful and the fact they serve recreational use and health as well.

“None of the mushrooms that contain psilocybin also contain poisonous compounds” this can only mean one thing..... we were meant to eat them. 😊

Back in the 1970s I came across a patch of Psilocybe baeocystis. I was able to pick about 2 lb of them. I went downtown trying to trade them for $10 Grateful Dead ticket, but I had no success. I guess I had eaten about an ounce of them, and was feeling very good. They did not look like the typical psilocybin people were familiar with. I ended up giving away about 2 lb to the people waiting in line for the concert. I never did get into the show, but I had a great time standing near the stage door enjoying the music!

I met Alan at Midwest Mushroom Camp at Circle Pines Center, and as a noobie, had no idea he was so popular here on youtube. He was gracious and had a plethora of knowledge. Had the privilege of going on a foray with him and getting a few photography tips. Thanks Alan!
