Also go to the archives for July 21 to 26 of this year. There are several other threads in this time frame discussing this therapy that are not directly linked to Stavi's post.
If you are in New Jersey it should be possible to find psilocybe cubensis mushrooms (the kind Stavi used) growing in cow pastures at this time of year. When the temperatures drop a bit more, you might also be able to find psilocybe semilanceata, or Liberty Cap mushrooms. They are the kind that Flash and other UK clusterheads typically use.
There are numerous sites on the net that have pictures and detailed descriptions of the various kinds of psilocybe mushrooms. The Liberty Cap and p. cubensis species are the easiest to identify, though... very difficult to mistake them for other species, especially p. cubensis.
Your other options are to buy some on the black market, or to grow your own (my preferred method).
Good luck, and keep us posted, please.
