Shaking the SnowGlobe
The re-birth of psychedelics.
I’m glad psychedelics, both micro-dosing and, macro-dosing, are becoming more of a topic of discussion. They’ve been unjustly vilified for too long — vilified by the people who could most benefit from ingesting them.
Many of these drugs were created and used medically until they were made illegal. There was and is growing medical data to strongly suggest their benefit. If you need proof, there are ongoing studies that prove their worth.
Psychedelics like LSD, Psilocybin, Ayahuasca, Peyote, and MDMA are showing positive results in treating depression, anxiety, PTSD, addiction and aiding people with a terminal illness. The research is ongoing…and being performed by reputable institutions like Johns Hopkins, NYU and Yale, among other private studies like MAPS.
I’m a fan:
Yes, there are stories of bad experiences. While those stories are unfortunate, they’re far from the norm. But you know what? There are bad stories about people drinking or taking Penicillin…or Nuprin.
