PTSD Relief Proposal

PTSD Relief Proposal

A new Michigan bill would decriminalize psilocybin mushrooms for adults diagnosed with PTSD. The legislation allows those 18 and older with a formal diagnosis to possess up to two ounces for personal use—no criminal penalties. Supporters emphasize this gives veterans, trauma survivors, and first responders safe access to a potential treatment option without legal risk.
