Psychedelics Are Now Legal in Australia-With a Catch
Australia is a nation known for its conservative attitude towards drugs. So the approval of psychedelics for use in psychotherapy in 2023 came as a shock. Maybe more shocking was who got it done - an opera singer and her former investment banker husband, who kicked up no shortage of controversy along the way.

That Stephen Bright is so short sighted. The reason people die from MDMA is because contamination or dehydration. Both things that would be solved if the compound was decriminalized and regulated, advocating to keep it criminalized only ensures more and more people will die trying to experience this treatment.

Most ppl who are hurt by MDMA actually overdose on water by consuming too much, im not sure if that translates to deaths also though. As far as contamination I don't think it's fair to even call that dying from MDMA. Realty is all traditional psychdelics are safer than alcohol and cigerettes though so these arguments about harm are so ridiculous.

Still trying to get my hands on some more without getting busted for importing what might be seen as "distribution amounts" of around 20 units. When the government bans vapes but not cigarettes and allows alcohol while banning dope and LSD - two of the least conflict inducing recreational drugs I can think of, you really get the impression that they don't actually care about our health as much as they claim that's the reason for the ban in the first place.

There is a serious problem with this media outlook and info being put out by this video and also misleading title. MDMA keeps being repeated in tandem with the research and use of Psilocybin which is incorrect. theyre 2 completely different drugs and also used for 2 completely different mental health related things so shouldnt they be reported as such, individually? and not combined into 1 video? People are gunna get confused. For example: mentioning people dying off of the use of MDMA in festivals and then talking about psilocybin research at 4:00 this is improper reporting and shows lack of knowledge; in context with this comment: there has not been a single known reported death from psilocybin mushroom use. There is no clear differentiation between the 2 by the journalist which is my issue.

The guy around 4 minutes is being foolish, misinformed or disingenuous. Of course, when people take it in unsupervised situations, not knowing what they're doing and not being mindful, these things can be dangerous or even lethal.. People should drink plenty when they use xtc/mdma, no other drugs, and there should be an experienced (and ideally sober) friend present to keep an eye out. Many people know this, but not everyone. Including apparently that guy. We don't know how it works? We don't know how alcohol and caffeine work either, not _really_ . We should be mindful and careful about this, the medicine is powerful.

Do you understand the profound difference between the implications and risks of them being decriminalised Vs legalized? Why specifically do you want them legalised instead of only decriminalised for personal use? Do you understand the profound risk involved in giving psychiatrists the ability to prescribe these substances to involuntarily commited patients? Do you know the horrendous history of this already in Victoria? Are you aware of the plans to massively expand mental health incarnation, and involuntarily commitment in Victoria? Do you really think psychiatrists and by extension the state should have these available as a weapon ?

Its a landmark ruling. Im glad someone is finally coming in to show this. It was quietly approved earlier than 2023. Its not actually prescribable or "useable" its a "we wont dismiss this research". But there is still a war on drugs, mental health and violence in australia. We have much bigger problems, its not that we care. Its that it slipped through our cracks. I desperately need this treatment. But our heads are buried in the sand and im considered a "potential threat" and we're arguing about the potential risks while I end up dying homeless on the street because i can't afford rent, to work while disabled, or to have a dog because dogs cant pay rent. But its all I have left... Thanks to predjudice and consistant denial of facts from of our australian government.
what worries me is the potential that this was put through, so they could demonstrate it failing. even if that means being untruthful. its hard not to be skeptical of modern medicine and FDA/ TGA. they would rather us pay out the nose for their pharmaceutical medicines laden with risk that to use anything safe/ cheap/ readily available and natural.
This is a lie. Being able to get a prescription from your doctor for something isn't the same as being legal. If I start growing and selling mushrooms I will go to jail. If I'm driving down the street and get pulled over and I'm found with a kilo of LSD I will go to jail. If I have a mental deficiency and I go to the doctor, do a myriad of tests and attend appointments for months I might be able to have session with a "professional" drug administrator. I dunno what legal means to you, but that's not legal.

If something is heavily regulated and obscenely expensive then it is not 'legal'. It might be an adjustment of pre-existing legislation but it's still legislation. It's still the government deciding the degree to which an individual may have access to, a relationship with and experience of the natural world. It is still a group of people deciding under what circumstances an individual may have this experience, and surprise, surprise! - it's within a clinical setting, with someone who doesn't really care about them, with large sums of money involved!

In Australia in recent times , a drug can almost simultaneously be made legal and effectively made compulsory. Considering that our government in Victoria has a plan for a massive expansion of mental health incarceration, and a history of involvement with experimentation on vulnerable people, we need to guard against psychedelics being used on people who are too vulnerable to refuse them.

Remember the recent pattern of substances becoming compulsory in certain contexts as soon as they were allowed ( not even approved )? The AstroTurf designed to launder this very odd law change is nonsensical. People using these substances in traditional ways don't need reclassification or legalisation of the substances they just need decriminalisation . The changes beyond decriminalisation ( legalisation and reclassification) are mostly an enormous gift of power to psychiatrists , and effectively , by extension, to the state .
Medical degeneracy?
4:26 also it’s conditional if you have a natural tolerance, how far down the rabbit hole you need/want to go, how/big or small you and the potential abyss of your psyche are…. did you take any other drugs or were your mushrooms a blend? Regulation or controlled environments separates the tribes from the professional pharmaceutical industry. Corporate calls it Quality Assurance/Insurance purposes.
Congratulations!
They had to reschedule psychedelics to get anywhere. It’s been impossible to do any tests or trials for decades because of the legality and general perception of psychedelics until now. Let’s just see how it goes
Legal or not it didn’t stop me from foraging today. I found at least 500g whilst looking in the rain. Was beautiful

And who was right about covid? The problem with use of the mdma in Australia. From the study done with MDMA. The patients were given one large dose and after 6 months the patients still didn't show any signs if their depression coming back. What been prescribed is micro doses, on long term bases. Cashing in medication.
More safe and effective than some other products out there being labelled as such!
Psychadelic therapy cured me of cPTSD, addiction, depression and obsession. Completely. It's not a magic bullet and it was incredibly confronting and I had loads of bad karma to confront. It was a terrifying but beautiful experience and has made me a MUCH better human being with MUCH better relationships.
That's an Amanita not a psilocybe
At least 1 mental health service in QLD is currently trialling psychedelic assisted therapies as treatment for mental health conditions including Ketamine and psylocybin as treatments for intractable depression and complex grief. Certainly way better than giving people ECT
Terence Mckenna's vision is FINALLY being realised. 🍄
I tried to join a Monash study for psilocybin, wasnt accepted.
We are All love our drugs in Australia
I Absolutely love my country!
This is such a terrible hit pace that is completely uninformed. The USA FDA led the way in this and Australia following the scientific research simply beat the US for something that they are scheduling to do very soon also. It is highly controlled in Australia and only psychiatrists who have specifically been trained in using psychedelic therapy which are only a handful in the entire country have been legalized to give this therapy.

LSD hasn't been approved
The approval of drugs in a democratic society should be transparent and include public input. While regulatory agencies play a crucial role in ensuring safety and efficacy, decisions that directly impact health must avoid secrecy. Health care is a fundamental right, and citizens should have the choice and knowledge necessary to make informed decisions about their health. If the process lacks transparency, it erodes trust and calls for advocacy and reform to ensure that health policies reflect the will and needs of the people. The situation with the Australian government, specifically the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA), is concerning. Their frequent reversals on decisions-without clear explanations-raise questions about their priorities. Take medical cannabis, for example. While there has been some progress in legal access, recent changes have further restricted access and modes of consumption, reflecting a troubling trend. This suggests that health may not be the primary concern for our government; rather, it appears that profits and relationships with big businesses take precedence. It’s critical to remember that public officials are ultimately paid by the people, raising a fundamental question: who do they really serve? If their actions do not align with the well-being of the public, we must reconsider their accountability. History often shows power structures that resemble this dynamic, where rulers prioritise their interests over those they are meant to serve. As citizens, it’s imperative that we advocate for a healthcare system that genuinely prioritises our needs and choices, rather than corporate profits.
I personally find it just a bit funny that AU considers its self a "conservative" country, considering it's past.... just saying. ALSO When will they get with the times and do something about their ridiculous cannabis laws?
Beautiful people who can make a massive change like albert hoffman and terrence mckenna.

For those of us suffering from PTSD this is so over due, many of us have lived our whole life with debilitating mental health. Public health is not funded well enough for those of us with mental health issues.
The people of Australia (aside from the 1950s) have never really been conservative - those in power gave the impression, however, because it suited their end goal. The people, the individuals, on the other hand 💅
Technically the first countries to allow it were all of them,

LSD is included now and theres LSD trials recruiting in Australia as we speak.
People die at festivals because they mix drugs and go too hard/don’t drink water/have a heart attack/don’t know what they are taking. Most people who have taken MDMA etc know that it does great things for their mental state. I am past that time now, but know that if I could find these substances now it would help remove the creeping negativity of age.

I got HPPD from a single dose of 1g of mushrooms. Been hallucinating faces for over 6 months with pretty intense anxiety. After doing some proper research i discovered this might be happening in up to 1 in 20 people. May have reconsidered if i'de known that (and believed it).

Shrooms are a powerful psychedelic with a long history of recreational, medicinal, and spiritual use worldwide. Still, psychedelics can be unpredictable, and experts advise anyone interested in using them to start with a low dose and seek counseling from a medical professional.

Mind Medicine Australia has organised a partnership with a Canadian medicine supplier and the cost of the medicines is minimal. The cost of the therapists makes up the bulk of the cost and may be covered by health insurance and other support for those in need. MMA also has a Patient Support Fund and 100% of donations into that help support those who cannot afford the upfront costs.
