Exclusive: Three Canadians with mental health conditions receive legal access to psilocybin mushrooms
Up until this week, the only people in Canada that could legally access psilocybin therapy were patients with terminal illnesses.
Things changed on Monday, when the non-profit organization TheraPsil helped three Canadians with mental health issues get Section 56 exemptions, granting them access to psilocybin therapy.
“This is a very clear indication that exemptions are now available for people who have anxiety, depression, addiction, and chronic pain,” says TheraPsil’s CEO. “It opens it up to everyone.”
