Thousands sign up to experience magic mushrooms as Oregon’s novel psilocybin experiment takes off - eviltoast

Psilocybin tea, wind chimes and a tie-dye mattress await those coming to an office suite in Eugene to trip on magic mushrooms. For roughly six hours, adults over 21 can experience what many users describe as vivid geometric shapes, a loss of identity and a oneness with the universe.

Epic Healing Eugene — Oregon’s first licensed psilocybin service center — opened in June, marking the state’s unprecedented step in offering the mind-bending drug to the public. The center now has a waitlist of more than 3,000 names, including people with depression, PTSD or end-of-life dread.

No prescription or referral is needed, but proponents hope Oregon’s legalization will spark a revolution in mental health care.

    If you’re just looking to try on your own, and not in a medical setting like what is legal. Uncle Ben’s or brf (brown rice flower) methods are the easiest way to get them. Spores can be purchased legally in a lot of places online. And there’s a lot of knowledge available on growing if you look. The worse version of lemmy ie reddit has several subs devoted to this and at least used to have safe online vendors to buy spores. There’s also some great YouTube channels, even ones that are strictly about legal mushrooms have knowledge that transfers to cubes.

      Seconding this. I don’t do psychedelics anymore but Uncle Ben tek has grown me plenty of oysters and is currently working some lions mane. The technique is more or less the same and I learned from people who were focused on growing cubensis.
