Here's what psychedelics actually do to the brain Scientists looked at a wide range of brain scans to determine how consciousness gets so trippy on mind-altering drugs.

I find #psychedelicmedicine to be a fascinating area of research, which is why I continue to write about it for NatGeo and others. Here's my latest on research exploring the effects of a trip on the brain. (Not paywalled)

Psychedelics aren’t curing cancer — they’re helping people face fear, anxiety, and suffering at end of life with dignity, peace, and emotional relief. Compassionate care matters.

Will psychedelics ever live up to their hype? The mind-expanding drugs may help heal many mental health conditions. But studies haven’t actually proved that yet.

I remain intrigued by the #mentalhealth and #spiritual potential of #psychedelics, but the science just isn’t there yet to support all the hype. My latest for NatGeo is paywalled but I’m happy to sent it to anyone. www.nationalgeographic.com/health/artic.... #psychedelicmedicine

Have You Had Your Mourning Tears?

I’ve reached that point of my healing(?) journey.

Am I alone? I mean, I know I feel alone, but anyone else relate?

How a Leftist Activist Group Helped Torpedo a Psychedelic Therapy (Gift Article) The fallout from the F.D.A.’s rejection of MDMA-assisted treatment for PTSD worries researchers and experts who fear other psychedelic drugs in the pipeline could be jeopardized.

People from both sides— #MAPS & #Psymposia— managed to slow down the progress of #psychedelicMedicine, maybe for good.
I agree with @neselsd.bsky.social that, with a #Left tag on the title, it is a "transparently partisan attack on behalf of a #pharmaceuticalCompany".

When microdosing plant medicine came into the fray I was intrigued very open to it

MDMA-Assisted Therapy Transformed Her Life. So Why Did the FDA Just Reject It? Three sessions of the drug and accompanying therapy “brought down the curtains and let me see my experience for what it was."

For those who don’t closely follow #psychedelicmedicine, my latest for Good Housekeeping shows why the FDA denial of the first #psychedelic to seek approval in decades is a big defeat for people with #PTSD, who are mostly women www.goodhousekeeping.com/health/welln...
