I hear psychedelics (magic mushrooms) in a safe nature-setting has not only helped people heal but also helped them cure depression (according to research).

Honestly, I doubt psychedelics are that helpful when it comes to getting off stimulants. Opioids, cigarettes, other habit forming substances that work primarily on the somatic level - yes.
I would say being at University at 29 (no judgement) creates the right environment to party hard and in titillating ways (forbidden fruit and all that).
Buddhism is hard path to follow even for people who have a more settled and stable lifestyle. I suggest you reach out for help from professionals.
