About Us
Psychedelics in Recovery is a 12-step fellowship of people from all 12-step programs and other paths of recovery who share our experience, strength and hope with each other.

The only requirement for membership is a desire to recover from our addictive behaviors and/or an interest in psychedelics as an aid to our process of recovery.

By embracing this holistic approach, we aim to empower individuals to explore new avenues of healing, both within themselves and within their recovery journeys.
Bill Wilson
“I am certain that the LSD experience has helped me very much. I find myself with a heightened color perception and an appreciation of beauty almost destroyed by my years of depression… The sensation that the partition between “here” and “there” has become very thin is constantly with me.”
Psychedelic Science
“When psychedelic therapy is given to alcoholics using methods described in the literature about one-third will remain sober after the therapy is completed. … There are no published papers using psychedelic therapy which show it does not help about 50 percent of the treated group.”
– Dr. Abram Hoffer, Psychedelic Pioneer, 1966
