Can you do a psilocybin session with epilepsy?

The reasons why seizures occur vary from person to person with epilepsy, making it difficult to say whether it is possible in your specific case. Furthermore, you should also consider whether medication plays a role. It is best to discuss your specific situation with your own doctor, as they have more insight into your medical history.

Incidentally, several stories can be read on the internet about epilepsy and the use of psilocybin or magic mushrooms. For instance, there are a number where the use of psilocybin triggered a seizure, and a few where psilocybin resulted in a long period without seizures. What happens most often is that no seizures occur during the use of psilocybin, but sometimes they do occur during the days afterward. In short, it is a lottery, and it is therefore wise not to simply engage in a psilocybin session if you have epilepsy.
