Introduction
Psychedelics especially magic mushrooms is one that’s soon to gain global acceptability. This is consequent upon the disapproval of various American cities towards Fungi based psychedelics. The study has shown that Psilocybin, an inherent active ingredient of the magic mushroom is starting to gain wide recognition due to its encouraging resultant effects.
The Short-Lived Revolution
For as far back as the 1960s, Psychedelics was a common area for psychological research due to its high medicinal results and its positive effect in moving the society forward in areas such as Civil Rights, Anti War, Modern feminism, and environmental movements. However, these effects were considered as encroaching on the American Mainstream culture leading the short span of the Psychedelics revolution.
Culturally, the American mainstream was not ready as opposed to societies like Maya, Aztecs, or ancient Greeks who were historically known to have use of psychedelics in ceremonial rituals and other practices. This was vacant in American history, and no doubt was what led to the unacceptability of the Psychedelics effects.
The Set Back
The UN in 1971 passed the convention of Psychotropic Substances, prescribes both natural (Psilocybin), and synthesized (LSD) psychedelics a ‘Schedule 1’ substance. The convention because it banned research of the medicinal effects of Psychedelics, and also stopped normal people from using.
Despite this major setback, the convention left a part uncovered as it failed to ban Magic Mushrooms which contains Psilocybin, but only illegalized the Psilocybin compound itself. Therefore, outlined below are different countries where Magic Mushrooms can be found and there is a regulated use
- Jamaica: To date, there isn’t any law that outlaws the use of Psilocybin. Mushrooms are not illegal, Shrooms are commercialized and they are Psilocybin mushroom events just as was portrayed in the “The Goop Lab” Hollywood’s movie
- Brazil: While the use, sale, and distribution of Magic mushrooms is not against the law, as well as the use of legalization of Ayahuasca in 1992 due to its traditional religious practices, Psilocybin compounds are however Illegal
- The Netherlands:The use of Magic mushrooms is illegal but the underlying components of the psilocybin mushrooms; “Magic truffles” remain in use as well as the use of cannabis.
- Canada: Possession of mushrooms is not illegal, but the sale of it is. However there are places where you can purchase microdoses, but this must be based on a medical doctor’s prescription. For diagnosis such as depression PTSD
Americas Great Move
American cities such as Oakland, Santa Cruz, California, Denver, and Colorado has amended the provisions of their laws to validate the use of magic mushrooms. This is a major improvement which the states of Oregon is closely following and New York too, making preparatory plans.
Global Recognition
Now the use of Psychedelics and Magic Mushrooms is starting to gain acceptability. However it is not the case that the effect of Psychedelics in treating depression, PTSD, OCD, etc. was just discovered, but mainly because cultures and people are evolving and getting enlightened as the day passes by.
The use of Psychedelics and related practices such as Yoga exercises and meditation were frowned at, but in modern times, these practices are practiced by all and sundry. Now all of these practices have been absorbed into different cultural mainstream largely as a result of the 1960s Psychedelics culture.
The Impending Global Legalization
With the adjustment of culture in recognizing the use of Psychedelics, various institutions have also committed researches into its effects which will soon pave way for its total recognition and legalization, even in states that it has been criminalized. Just like cannabis which was in time past banned, then legalized for medicinal purposes, then recreational uses, the Use of psychedelics is soon to take in a similar turn of events. The legalization of medicinal use will surely pave way for other use.
The Medicinal effects of the use of Psychedelics have been proven to boost healthy living and revitalizing the mind, this therefore will be the ground on which other users or demands of Psychedelics will be based on. We hope this Global Legalization comes sooner than imagined.
