Scientific study shows that one moderate dose of psilocybin helps with depression for two weeks or more

A new double-blind scientific study shows that a single moderate dose of psilocybin—the psychedelic compound found in magic mushrooms—reduced people's depression for at least two weeks.

According to the University of Zurich researchers, "participants were instructed to immerse themselves in the experience with an introspective focus. A standardised playlist with music was played via headphones or speakers. One trained therapist was present in the room throughout the administration day to respond to the participants' needs. All visits were conducted in a living-room like environment."
