Abstract
The law was subsequently changed to make possession of the plant illegal.Thus unless the Act is amended to name the psilocybin mushroom possession is legal.Apparently increasing numbers of teenagers and others are harvesting and eating the mushrooms.2Doctors should therefore be aware of possible long-term side effects of such agents.One of these is the flashback phenomenon described by about 5% of LSD users.3-3The development of severe and uncharacteristic anxiety symptoms, as in the present case, may be another.
