The memory of serving in war still haunts veteran Matthew Kahl. "I'd seen things. I'd done things that were no person no person should ever have to do,” Kahl says. Kahl was deployed to Afghanistan twice in four years. Since serving, he’s tried twice to take his own life."I tried to commit suicide. I found every medication in the house cold medications, Tylenol, everything,” he recalls. “And I took them all, everything. Every last bit." Kahl says doctors tried to help by him by prescribing numerous different medications. “Ninety-six medications over the course of three to four years," he says. But he says all of these drugs, many of them anti-depressants, didn't fix his problem. "The traditional treatment caused me to be a zombie. It toned down the feelings,” he says. “It eliminated the feelings. It completely removed all the ability to connect with your issues your trauma." Then, he says he took a more natural route. First, he tried cannabis, but then, he went to psychedelic drugs, like psilocybin mushrooms. "Mushrooms, it was like magic. They fixed the pain they fixed the issues that were leading to the pain,” he describes. “It was a profound, profound experience. It was healing." Kahl considers magic mushrooms a medicine. However, the government considers them illegal. In May, Denver could become the first city to decriminalize psilocybin mushrooms. "We believe no person should be criminalized, lose their jobs, lose their family, lose their livelihood, for possessing a substance that grows naturally and has such really potential medical benefits,” says Kevin Matthews, an advocate for decriminalizing psilocybin mushrooms. Matthews' campaign got nearly twice the amount of signatures needed to get on the ballot. If voters approve the measure, mushrooms would still be illegal but would become the "the lowest-law enforcement priority." Supporters point to studies like one by Johns Hopkins University that say mushrooms have the potential to help with depression and anxiety. "It's one of these things that we have a lot of issues that we're facing as a society: rising rates of addiction and mental health crisis,” Matthews says. “And psilocybin can be an affecting alternative to the current paradigm of treatment." The government considers mushrooms a schedule 1 drug that have "no currently accepted medical use and a high potential for abuse." If users like Kahl were caught with mushrooms, they could face prison time. That's why a "yes" vote in May would mean so much to him. "It would mean freedom,” he says. “Finally being free of the worry, of being prosecuted and going to jail." He says that fear won't stop him from using mushrooms as a weapon in the fight against PTSD."You don't have to be stuck. This isn't a life sentence, and this PTSD, it’s curable,” he says. “You don't have to live with this pain for the rest of your life. You don't you can move on."There is a similar push to decriminalize mushrooms in Oregon in 2020. A legalization effort fell short in California last year. 3041

The current cavernous gap in ideology between America's two political parties was on display again in the House of Representatives earlier this week. But this time, the topic wasn't border security, healthcare or presidential powers.Democrats and Republicans chose to trade barbs about the band Nickelback.The discussion cropped up during debate over a voting rights provision. Rep. Mark Pocan (D-Wisconsin) mentioned that only four in 77,000 were in favor of the provision."That's probably about the percent of people who think Nickelback is their favorite band in this country — it's pretty low," Pocan said.Pocan was likely drawing on anti-Nickelback sentiment that has become a meme in recent years. In 2010, a Facebook group called "Can this pickle get more fans than Nickleback?" 798

The CDC announced on Thursday that cigarette smoking rates in the United States have reached recorded lows with just 13.7 percent of the adult population smoking cigarettes in 2018. The percentage of smokers is just one-third from the number of smokers from 50 years ago. The CDC said that 19.7 percent of American adults used tobacco products in 2018. Cigars are used by 3.9 percent of adults; e-cigarettes by 3.2 percent of adults; smokeless tobacco by 2.4 percent of adults; and pipes, water pipes, or hookahs by 1 percent. The CDC said nearly 18.8 percent of tobacco users use two or more products. “This marked decline in cigarette smoking is the achievement of a consistent and coordinated effort by the public health community and our many partners,” said CDC Director Robert R. Redfield, M.D. “Yet, our work is far from over. The health benefits of quitting smoking are significant, and we are committed to educating Americans about the steps they can take to become tobacco-free.”While overall tobacco use has declined, e-cigarette use is on the rise, especially among young adults. More than 7 percent of young adults (ages 18-24) use e-cigarettes. According to the CDC, cigarette smoking is responsible for more than 480,000 deaths per year including more than 41,000 deaths resulting from secondhand smoke exposure. 1339
