So the only way people should be allowed to consume psilocybin is if they pick them themselves or don’t pay someone who did? I'm asking because you seem to have an issue specifically with profit off of mushrooms. The vast majority of folks who use them, that I'm aware of, buy them. So are we already in a perverted state?

I don’t want the only legal method of consuming these mushrooms to be with a yuppy doctor who is so far detached from the cultural significance of entheogenic plants, and calls it “therapy.” This feels like a grift.

Grow them yourself. Forage them yourself. That’s part of the experience. You might be rewarded with a good trip.

Thank you for expanding on the earlier post, I appreciate it and do agree to a certain extent.

I do believe going the way of OR, and decriminalizing and legalizing for treatment would be a big step forward.

I understand I’m probably in the minority and that this becoming law will be inevitable. I’ll still shout at the cloud!!

To be honest I think so many people are just desperate for any type of progress that they’ll compromise and latch on to just about anything.

Clearly there’s a better, healthier approach to psilocybin and using mushies for treatment, I just don’t know how realistic the other avenues are in WA in 2023.
