Despite trying various treatments, he found relief through psilocybin from magic mushrooms, which improved symptoms by resetting brain patterns and boosting serotonin. Adam conducted self-trials, sourcing synthetics and real mushrooms, and eventually found profound relief after a heroic dose on Marthas Vineyard. Now, trials at Yale show similar results, with one dose sparking acceptance of lifes chaos for some patients. Adam, now fifty-one, channels his experiences into theater, using stage exposure to push through anxiety spikes and embracing uncertainty to loosen OCDs grip.
