Who really gets better with magic mushrooms? A doctor explains - EP34

This episode is the most important one we've released thus far. It's been one we've had in mind before we even started Limelight.Mental health is the most important issue we're facing in the first world and there are many people suffering and coping in different ways. In the Vancouver area, yes we have an opioid crisis but really, it's a mental health crisis at its core.Psychedelic compounds such as Psilocybin have the ability to heal one's mental illnesses and not with daily doses, even with as little as one with positive effects lasting upwards up a year to 18 months.We hope this episode reminds you that you are not alone with your feelings, and there is natural medicine that can really help many of us - it just isn't freely accessible.Dr. Masuda said it best: if it didn't work so well, there wouldn't be a huge market in the underground. However, this makes it more risky due to the lack of professional accountability that our healthcare system has.If you would like to learn more about psychedelic therapy please reach out to Therapsil if you're in Canada.
