After hearing a few people talk about recriational drugs I thought I'd try to find out a little more about this. For me, magic mushrooms are the only substance (and Ive tried them all!) to help. Whilst on a trip (even v mild) my symptoms vanish, and remain under wraps for 3-4 days afterwards. Having discovered this I typed 'magic mushrooms + OCD' into google and found masses of info on their potential to help, even a study reported by the BBC, and many pages on the use of psilocybin (the active ingredient in mushrooms) for treating OCD such as http://www.maps.org/research/psilo/azproto.html
There are clinical trials going on in the US (such as the one in the web address above) and I was just wondering if anybody else has any experience like this or knows of any UK trials?
(Ps I am NOT advocating the use of drugs-as most people will hopefully realise what works for one person may be DISASTEROUS for another, but since the research has been broadly publisised anyhow for anybody to read I thought it would be ok to ask)
