I mean I can honestly say for me that shrooms cured my depression. Not helped, not band aid fixed but cured (this was eight years ago). Not pushing any agenda here, just sharing my experience
I have no doubt there are therapeutic applications for hallucinogens and psychedelics just as much as there are recreational uses for those drugs as well.
My contention is really directed at those who think these are some kind of out of body spiritual hack to “unlock” knowledge.

there is real science of therapeutic effect to some people.
but like, you will harm a happy person if you give them an SSRI, with these things is hard to say how it will go.
