Summary
This study tests whether a group retreat using psilocybin (the active ingredient in magic mushrooms) can safely reduce anxiety and depression in 18 adults with incurable cancer.

The goal is to see if this approach can help patients find relief from the emotional distress that often comes with a terminal diagnosis.
