The place I linked is Friday to Friday. There's 3 dosing days and 3 group integration days.

I'm sure it helps some people for certain conditions. But to have this solution as your main method to stop depression is ridiculous. Come on.

I know what you are talking about. I read up on after seeing a youtuber a while back.

I think you are framing it incorrectly. Psilocybin has the capacity to crack someone open and actually get to the nub of the depression. SSRIs and other medicines treat symptoms, not causes.

Even years of weekly conventional therapy sessions might not get one to the source.

So when you say "main method to stop depression", I don't exactly agree with that construct. I am saying this modality is an extremely powerful tool to root out the source. That alone can be transformative. But one must still do the hard work in the real world of continuing to work on themselves.

But I am not changing my main claim: if someone is at the end of their rope with treatment-resistant-depression, this modality could be an absolute lifesaver.

I have seen it with my own eyes more than once - particularly if there is underlying and/or buried trauma lurking in there.
