 Psilocybin used as treatment for OCD

Maybe mushrooms will get the same medical deal as marijuana in the future.

It had been years since Jeremy had touched a basketball.
Living with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), Jeff feared contamination from dirt and germs which prevented any part of his body from touching the ground, save for the soles of his shoes.
But whilst taking part in a small clinical study to investigate the effects of psilocybin, the hallucinogenic compound found in 'magic' mushrooms, on people with OCD, Jeremy's bare feet lay on the floor and he expressed a willingness to engage in an activity, playing with a ball, that just hours before he would have been considered abhorrent

In all seriousness, my dad has it to a degree... I seriously doubt he will be getting any of my shrooms tho. This is an interesting find, insomuch as it lends some credibility to the medicinal nature of the magic mushroom.

after having OCD for the majority of my life I'd just like to post here to re-affirm this. my mom really needs a mushroom trip, cleans the house just about every day. vacuums at least every other day. thats 2 storeys of cleaning, not just one lol. my house is 1 storey and is messier than my parents house could ever get lol.

In a closed society where everyone is guilty, the only crime is getting caught.
