Does your bucket list include one last 'trip'?

Experts have claimed that magic mushrooms should be given out in care homes to help curb patients' fear of death.

They could help treat anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder.

Dr David Luke is a professor of psychology at Greenwich University in London:

"Everybody is going to die, we know that. A lot of people have a lot of fear around that and it's not an easy transition and I think the use of magic mushrooms shows great promise in helping people to deal with that very challenging transition in life".
