Magic mushroom use rises despite concerns about little known paralysis syndrome

"Psychedelic drug use appears to be increasing in Australia.

The latest National Drug Strategy Household Survey from 2022–23 saw the percentage of Australians who used a psychedelic drug rise from 1.6 per cent in 2019 to 2.4 per cent three years later taking the number of people who use these drugs annually up to about 500,000 people."

I wonder if this is because alcohol is harder to afford for many now ?
