Psilocybin may 'reset' the brain to help manage treatment-resistant depression

1. Got my brain reset a number of times.....

in the 70s/80s. Everybody should experience LSD once....at least. That will make you think about your very existance.

2. My experience (70's) tells me that our entire population would be far

better off if they were to take some sort of hallucinogens - mushrooms, peyote, LSD, etc. - at some point in their life. Contrary to popular belief it has very little to do with getting "high" and more about expanding your mind.

Our society takes themselves much too seriously and it is destroying us. Life is to be enjoyed. The manmade principles that govern and dictate our day-to-day living are so depressing that it becomes a constant struggle.

I'm 72 and thankful I was exposed in my 20's, it changed my life.

3. I sure hope this comes to pass.

It has the potential to help so many people. It could certainly happen in Colorado. It is already decriminalized in Denver, which sounds like a first step. Presently, in Denver and Boulder there are counselors advertising hallucinogenic experience guides. You have to supply your own product, of course, and the guides are rather expensive.

4. Peyote or mescaline always worked great for me.

It definitely reset my brain for happiness and wonder. LSD could be too intense, same with me with psilocybin. Psilocybin or what was called that produced the most variability in highs, I think some of them were treated with something else so be careful to know your source.
