As it ran in Shroom Scan

MycoMeditations' surveys, which ran for 2 years, reveal psilocybin therapy at their retreats significantly alleviates symptoms of Major Depressive Disorder, Generalized Anxiety Disorder, and Social Anxiety Disorder, maintaining improvements for over a year post-treatment. This indicates psilocybin's potential to provide lasting mental health benefits, potentially outperforming traditional therapies observed in clinical trials.
