Shrooms specifically our teacher implied were similarly harmful as meth and even fentanyl. Meanwhile shroom research from the past decade has found them one of the safest & least addictive drugs we know of, capable of growing new neural pathways rather than killing them, and potentially being one of the most effective treatments for depression & addiction that we know of
The amount of urban myths and pseudoscience about psychedelics is wild for the fact they’re practically the only recreational drugs with evidence for long-term psychological benefit
