I’ll agree that mushrooms can be a powerful tool, maybe we will disagree on what it means to be “functional.” I don’t think people tripping helps them function better. I do like how you mentioned that psychedelics can be a tool for growth, I’d agree there. In my experience, people don’t recognize when it’s time to put the drugs away and focus on other tools for personal growth. Drugs shouldn’t be a long term solution.

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.
