PSILOCYBIN
Psilocybin is a naturally occurring psychedelic compound found in certain strains of mushrooms that invokes altered states of consciousness and expands pathways in your brain.
​
Psilocybin metabolizes into psilocin, which then interacts with serotonin receptors in the brain, particularly the 5-HT2A receptor, leading to alterations in perception, mood, and cognition. These effects can include visual and auditory hallucinations, changes in thought patterns, altered sense of time, and feelings of euphoria or spiritual insight.

BENEFITS
Psilocybin has shown potential therapeutic benefits for treating various mental health conditions:
​
-
Depression: Multiple clinical trials have found that psilocybin-assisted therapy can significantly reduce symptoms of treatment-resistant depression.
-
Anxiety and depression in cancer patients: Studies have found psilocybin can ease fear, anxiety and depression in people with terminal cancer.
-
Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD): Psilocybin therapy has demonstrated potential benefits for treating OCD.
-
Addiction: Psilocybin has shown promise in helping people quit smoking and manage alcohol and substance use disorders.
-
Other conditions: Psilocybin is also being investigated for potential benefits in treating Alzheimer's disease, eating disorders, and cluster headaches.

The key advantages of psilocybin-assisted therapy seem to be its rapid and long-lasting effects, as well as its ability to increase neuroplasticity, allowing the brain to form new connections and break out of negative thought patterns.
