With Oregon’s Provisional Legalization, Many Turn to Magic Mushrooms for Mental Health Help

September 24, 2023

The FDA has not approved psilocybin – the psychoactive ingredient in magic mushrooms – for medical use, nor has the drug been endorsed by the American Psychiatric Association. But for many suffering from mental health issues, the promise of feeling better is a compelling enough reason to try it. In part two of Matter of Fact’s look at psychedelics, Jessica Gomez goes to Oregon. It’s the first state to allow public use with supervision. Jessica meets with producers, researchers and patients to better understand the drug’s impacts.
