Psilocybin may be a viable answer for treatment-resistant depression.
Picture this: a world where the answer to treatment-resistant depression might be found in a humble mushroom.

Husain’s research, recently published in The New England Journal of Medicine, suggests that psilocybin could be a game-changer for mental health treatment. But it’s not all smooth sailing; the episode also covers the possible risks and challenges of accessing psilocybin therapy. Whether you’re curious about new mental health treatments or looking for hope in your own journey, this episode provides a balanced and informative look at an unconventional but promising option.
