Summary
Colorado has become the second state to legalize psychedelic therapy, allowing psilocybin to be used for treating PTSD and depression.
Tensions have arisen in conservative areas like Colorado Springs, where restrictions on “healing centers” have been passed despite objections from veterans advocating for the therapy.
Veterans argue it provides crucial mental health support, though concerns over FDA approval and potential risks persist.
Psilocybin therapy will be tightly regulated, with licensed facilitators overseeing treatments.
Advocates see it as a vital alternative for those unresponsive to traditional treatments.
If conservatives don’t like it they don’t need to participate.
I would bet the risks of this kind of therapy are far lower than chiropractors and chiropractors are dangerous quacks.
A conservative can’t fathom a world where they aren’t controlling and grifting people.
