The legalization movement, which has been picking up pace in numerous nations, has now reached Australia. Just a few years back, the country decriminalized the use of light cannabis, and now they’re set to legalize psychedelics this year. Healthcare factors are believed to be the driving force behind this decision. An abundance of scientific reports indicates the medical potential of these substances, offering the possibility of utilizing them to treat complex mental disorders.

Starting in July, psilocybin mushrooms and MDMA will be added to the list of approved drugs for the treatment of severe depression and PTSD. They will only be recommended for patients who have not tried other medications. In the future, these substances may also be used to treat conditions like alcohol addiction, eating disorders, and more, as medical professionals hope. The decriminalization of psychedelics not only provides a therapeutic benefit but also opens the door to research exploring human emotions, behavior, and consciousness.

The reaction to the government’s decision is mixed, with some wholeheartedly supporting it, while others are wary of the fast-paced progress in legalization. The only thing holding back naysayers is the lack of long-term studies on the use of MDMA and psilocybin. However, a major study on the effectiveness of psilocybin for treatment-resistant depression is currently underway in Australia, and its results will be released after the law is passed.

Debates are inevitable when it comes to such a sensitive topic, but supporters of legalization always have valid arguments to defend their stance. This highlights the growing trend of drug decriminalization in various countries, including Australia, where the use of hard drugs in medicine has been proposed in recent years. Indigenous Australians have been using psychedelics for thousands of years, as the land is abundant in magic mushrooms, which provided them with spiritual insight and healing properties.
