In this interview on Living Local Fox21 News, Matt Zemon, a best-selling author, shared insights about his book “Psychedelics for Everyone” and the potential of psychedelic medicine for treating various mental health issues. He discussed the implications of Colorado’s Proposition 122, which decriminalizes several psychedelic substances and establishes a legal framework for their use. Matt highlighted the transformative impact of psilocybin (magic mushrooms) and other psychedelics, emphasizing their effectiveness in treating conditions such as treatment-resistant depression, anxiety, PTSD, and substance use disorders.

Matt’s journey began almost four years ago with a guided psilocybin experience that profoundly changed his perspective, leading him to pursue a Master’s in neuroscience and psychology. His book, “Psychedelics for Everyone,” aims to make the science and benefits of psychedelics accessible to a broad audience, advocating for informed decision-making regarding these substances. He cited impressive clinical trial results, particularly with MDMA for PTSD, as evidence of the significant therapeutic potential of psychedelics.
