"Surge in Participants as Psilocybin Experiment Unleashes the Power of Magic Mushrooms"

Oregon's first licensed psilocybin service center, Epic Healing Eugene, has a waitlist of over 3,000 people seeking to experience the effects of magic mushrooms. The center, which opened in June, offers adults over 21 the opportunity to try psilocybin tea in a controlled environment. No prescription or referral is needed, and proponents hope that Oregon's legalization of psilocybin will revolutionize mental health care. The state's Psilocybin Services Section has received numerous inquiries from around the world. While psilocybin remains illegal in most of the United States, the FDA has designated it a "breakthrough therapy" and published draft guidance for researchers. However, the Oregon Psychiatric Physicians Association opposes the legalization, citing safety concerns.
