Young adults nearly doubled their consumption of psychedelic mushrooms and other hallucinogens in the past three years, according to a new study.
The study's lead author, Katherine Keyes, said that because the authorized therapeutic use of psychedelics is uncommon in the United States, the spikes are"undoubtedly in nonmedical and nontherapeutic use." However, the study did not look into whether the increase was recreational or medicinal.
When broken down demographically, people who are white, male, or whose parents have college educations are the most likely to have used hallucinogens.Co-author Megan Patrick warned the spike could be a cause for public health concern, as other studies have shown uncontrolled, nonmedical use of hallucinogens has been connected to the risk of a substance use disorder, self-harm, and anxiety.
"The use of psychedelic and hallucinogenic drugs for a range of therapeutic uses is increasing, given accumulating yet still preliminary data from randomized trials on clinical effectiveness,” Keyes said. “With increased visibility for medical and therapeutic use, however, potentially comes diversion and unregulated product availability, as well as a lack of understanding among the public of potential risks.
