In reply to Magic Mushrooms - Psilocybin, posted by Meltingpot on August 26, 2015, at 8:10:43
The effects of psilocybin are highly variable and depend on the mindset and environment in which the user has the experience, factors commonly referred to as set and setting.
Panic reactions can occur after consumption of psilocybin-containing mushrooms, especially if the ingestion is accidental or otherwise unexpected
Psylocibin mimics the effects of serotonin in the brain.
Psilocybin is being researched in the treatment of depression but no studies have been conclusive. However, magic mushrooms have shown great efficacy in treating OCD and cluster headaches.
