Psychedelics

Psychedelics are a class of substances that alter perception, mood, and cognitive processes. Common examples include psilocybin (found in magic mushrooms), LSD, and DMT. These substances can lead to profound changes in thought patterns, feelings of connectedness, and visual or auditory hallucinations. Research indicates that psychedelics may have therapeutic benefits for mental health conditions, such as depression and PTSD, by promoting new perspectives and emotional healing. Their effects are influenced by dosage, setting, and individual psychology, making responsible use and understanding essential for safe experiences.
