The possession and personal use of 'magic mushrooms' and ayahuasca could be decriminalized under a new psychedelics bill introduced Monday backed by veterans.
, and voters in Oregon and Colorado have recently approved similar ballot measures. Mental health professionals and other advocates supporting the statewide proposal say a more widespread lifting of criminal sanctions against the drugs would help research and treatment.
“Historically, some people seek out psychedelics for healing when other conventional treatments have failed them,” Abedi said. Psychedelics can help bring “material to the surface that needs to come up for processing,” Abedi said, which helps people address the root causes of some of their health concerns.
Narrowing the bill could help convince some skeptics, but the measure’s proponents are still likely to face public safety questions, particularly from law enforcement. Decriminalization is different from full legalization, meaning these psychedelics still wouldn’t be treated like marijuana in California.
