God the way this article is written piss me the fuck off. They are trying really hard to spin it as people just wanting to get high. Burying the fact that this is a life critical drug for many. Mainstream media can fuck off
I’m happy for it to be available to those that can benefit from it as you mention, but also I just want to get high and when it comes to psilocybin I don’t see what’s wrong with that. Hoping California follows this path!
I too have absolutely nothing against people wanting to get high off it. My problem is with article trying to manipulate the reader’s opinion by putting emphasis on the recreational use.
Oh yea I understand your point better, and it’s a good one.
Offering guided trips/treatment is a good thing, but the article says it costs $2K for a session… not great.
Meanwhile you can grow multiple OZ’s for 200$
That’s the minimum I’d require to spend 8-10 hours with a bunch of people on mushrooms who thought I was some kind of tripping expert.
Solid point :-) They did mention that one provider only sees a single patient per week. The emotional toll for that provider has got to be huge.
