Mike Tyson's Confessions On How Psychedelic Drugs Saved His Life
JAKARTA - Mike Tyson believes that psychedelic drugs, or magic mushrooms, saved his life. He hopes this plant can do the same for other people.
Former boxer Iron Mike talks about some of the mental health problems he has experienced during his career. He said that the magic mushroom gave him peace.
"Everyone thought I was crazy, I bit this guy's ear", Tyson told Reuters, referring to the Evander Holyfield incident.
"I took all this (psychedelic medicine), and once I was introduced to mushrooms ... my whole life changed".
"It's scary even to tell the (past) it. To think about where I used to be - almost killed myself - until now", continued Tyson.
"Isn't life a journey, my friend? It's a wonderful drug, and people don't see it from that point of view. I'm cured", he concluded.
In December last year, five minutes before appearing on the imPaulsive podcast, Tyson was seen munching on about four or five grams of magic mushrooms given to him by co-host Mike Majlak. Tyson described how he felt while taking these drugs, such as seeing "the sun opens".
As for the previous month, Concrete Neck made a shocking confession by saying he smoked marijuana before his fistfight with Roy Jones Jr.
Tyson is allowed to smoke marijuana before a fight. This is allowed because marijuana is not included in the banned substance in the doping test for this fight.
