Austrian Man, 37, Reattaches Penis After Psilocybin-Induced Axe Amputation; Parts Stored in Snow
Sep 29, 2024, 12:27 PM
In an unprecedented case reported by doctors in Austria, a 37-year-old man amputated his own penis with an axe during a psychotic episode induced by consuming a large quantity of psilocybin mushrooms. After the self-inflicted injury, he preserved the severed parts in a jar of snow, allowing surgeons to partially reattach the organ. This marks the first documented instance of psilocybin-induced penile amputation, highlighting the potential severe psychiatric side effects associated with high doses of the substance.
