What was said

"February the 3rd, it was 2023, we're standing in the kitchen and my husband goes, "It's been rescheduled." And I just said, "No, can't be serious.""

Mind Medicine Australia co-founder Tania de Jong describes learning on 3 February 2023 that Australia’s regulator had “rescheduled” the relevant medicines, saying she read the document at home and celebrated with her husband as international headlines followed. She adds that subsequent rule changes allowed psychiatrists to apply to the Therapeutic Goods Administration for authorised prescriber status and begin treating patients in clinics under controlled protocols.
