Summary

Age could play an important role in how psychedelic use relates to mental health, according to new research from the Department of Psychology at Durham University. Researchers found that adults with a history of using classic psychedelics, such as psilocybin (magic mushrooms) and LSD, reported lower levels of anxiety and depression than nonusers, but only in younger age groups. The associations became weaker with increasing age and were no longer evident among older adults.
