Our Story
PsyBear was founded during a pivotal moment in psychedelic history. As cities like San Francisco deprioritized enforcement around entheogenic plants and states began establishing regulated frameworks for psilocybin services, the need for accurate, balanced information became urgent.
Founded in the San Francisco Bay Area, PsyBear was created by contributors from diverse backgrounds, including growers, therapists, journalism, enthusiasts, and community organizing — united by a shared belief:
Education is the foundation of safe, meaningful psychedelic experiences.
What began as a response to misinformation has grown into a trusted destination for thousands of readers seeking reliable psychedelic resources.

Our role is to inform, contextualize, and elevate the standard of psychedelic education online.
Core Principles
Inform before influence
We prioritize education over persuasion. Our goal is to provide facts and context so readers can form their own informed opinions.
Science and tradition both matter
We respect both modern clinical research and the centuries of indigenous knowledge that preceded it. Both perspectives enrich understanding.
No medical claims, education only
We are an educational resource, not a medical provider. We never make therapeutic claims or recommend specific treatments.
Human experience over hype
We center real experiences and honest accounts over sensationalism. The psychedelic space deserves nuance, not marketing spin.
