The Truth About Psychedelics

Love your channel , can you do a piece on DMT with Rick strassman ?

Mushrooms are hands down my favorite drug of choice

I have taken shrooms once and it made my brain understand what made me depressed and how it isn't something to be depressed about. I feel pretty much good as new with only a small number of short lived depressive episodes wich I honestly think is nothing more than the effect of imposter syndrome or simply being tired.

I understand that it won't help everyone, but it was huge for me as someone with untreatable depression where no antidepressants made a blind bit of a difference.

"In this video, we'll take you on a trip" I see what you did there.

I study them all the time!

The great party scene is coming back then in 2 years..

na

Yes take us on a "trip" 😂

could these help people with brain trauma

Jesus started the first war on drugs by giving the lords commandments on given mind altering substances - they invite demons a.k.a. loss of thought energy control.

My question is........Have YOU ever had a psychedelic mushroom trip, if not it's hard to make a video unless you have.

Mushrooms opened my eyes to leave my abusive relationship. Mushrooms good

I gotta say, that was a very well timed and tasteful ad for Incogni. I'm going to check them out. Recently my identity has been stolen and it might be good to get my privacy back to a space of my own.

An amazing and informative report. Thank you for be transparent about both sides of the argument.

Just wanted to mention that Psychedelics are recreational in DC.

Something that comes from mother planet and is for your health eat it!!!!

have you tried it yourself?

Would be neat if it could help my panic attacks and ad lol. hey uk pls do more research into them

how can i get shrooms

Psychedelics definitely have the potential to deal with mental health issues like anxiety and depression, they really helped me.

About time! Pandoras box is open. Might as well science the shit out of it!

Psychedelic shrooms really helped me I tried taking them for fun and despite being dragged through the 4th layer of Hell I came out happier and healthier.

Not only has it helped with depression I’ve become more social and now use THC for medicinal purposes rather then smoke it until my lungs bleed and I start having an existential crisis

natalie portman?

yeah i stand by psilocybin. But Lsd Nah i just feel stupid after I do it like the simplest of tasks just make me feel like a 2 year old whos figuring out the world.

I honestly believe that all drugs should be legalized but with warning labels and oversight so people can make the best decisions for themselves and they can be monitored to protect the general public.

The most profound and beautiful experience in my life was taking LSD and talking to the light from the Sun and meeting God and being given a poem to share more than 50 years ago❤❤❤

I used to get the trippy effects of shrooms until I found my purpose in life a few years ago and now I just get a pleasant stoned feeling with no visuals, etc.

i should have subscribed to this channel along time ago. Keep it up Cleo! very entertaining and educational.

ive suffered from depression and anxiety until psychedelics changed my life for the better, however it would have been an absolute nightmare to trip in a medical setting, in my eyes the ultimate horror trip. psychedelics should be legal and accessible to anyone who know about the risks and dangers. if politicians want to gatekeep, they should create something like a driving license but for psychedelics instead of threating innocent people with fines and jail time

You got it right. Its based on fear and control. There isnt a war on drugs. Just SOME drugs. The best society to control is one who fears and depressed. Also unfortunately the worst existence to have which is where we find ourselves in now.

I don't know if they should be legal I took two grams the other night got up off the couch and thought I fell down a mineshaft

LSD cured my cluster headaches. 10 years pain free and doctors didn't have anything for me. found some small study and decided it was worth being a guinea pig rather than suffer the pain. No regrets here. Legalize psychedelics

Mushrooms are being sold across Canada and the police aren’t doing anything about it. I think society has bigger problems like the fentanyl crisis.

The only good drug besides weed.

If opiods are legal and alcohol is legal, both with serious toxicity than psychedelics that are much safer and have well documented healing properties should be legal.

100% advocate for legalization, took a single tab of LSD and it just reset me and my depression was gone

I would rather push for solving the root cause for the issues, rather than just trying to find a retroactive solution.

Can psychedelics have positive effects on dementia?

ive never taken drugs, but i do drink. i think we should treat grown ass adults like grown ass adults again. free to make their own decisions. they should be able to just go down and buy this stuff from wherever and use it at their leisure. heck, a lot of science these days is pointing towards drug use being how the human mind evolved the way it has in the first place. how inventions were made, civilizations built, art created etc. eat work sleep with no creativity or enjoyment is not the grey future we should be heading to. add some damn colour back.
this is a complete 180 on my views 5-10 years ago where i was very anti drug. i didnt even think cannibis should be legalized back then, now i do. 100%

Judging by the picture, she's holding a Death Cap Amanita.

Check your replies I'm not just an average poster. I am a published Medical Researcher and have Severe Complex Treatment Resistant PTSD. I also hold a J.D. and am admitted in two sates and all the way up he U.S. Supreme Court. I am published by the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime and a Former Assistant Attorney General. I hold dual nationally and and am a Swiss lawyer as well as having worked or been admitted in Singapore and Malaysia. I also had an "issue" with VP. I have managed to stay alive and had an issue with VP. That in itself is a miracle. I lost 15 years of my life due to ignorance and their destruction of my reputation and use of "psychological warfare" which my former boss heard about through his former Russian clients and told my docs and I knew but who would believe me...not now but they would have and do now but in-between....they are good at hurting your severely if they fail at killing you.

I practice the entheogenic rituals of the ancient Toltec shamans. I'm a psychonaut and I hope to one day become a psychedelic therapist

It should not be legal except for therapeutic use and medical studies and needs. We as a country are getting out of hand with legalizing a drug to enable new income without fully understanding the negative neurological and mental health effects in a long term study.

How many vets from the Vietnam war wouldn’t have killed themselves if they had access to these treatments? How many people would’ve lived fulfilling lives if they weren’t in jail for possession? Would there be so many young ppl on SSRIs and heavier pharmaceuticals today? Stopping/ slowing scientific research and sensationalism got us into this mess. Glad to see a nuanced coverage of this topic.

What is seriously lacking in this video and the conversation about psychedelics in general is the importance of cognitive liberties. These drugs were banned because the people who took them were going against the status quo, not because they are inherently dangerous. Psychedelic therapy is a wonderful thing, but is not the only context in which these substances are beneficial.

First/only time ove done shrooms i was handed a handful and no instructions so i ate said handful and it was one of the worst couple days I've ever had!

I took LSD and mushrooms about a dozen times when I was between 16- 19. I wasn't testing for scientific results, I was partying with my friends. It was 100% pleasant, except for being tired the next day. It's been 40 years since I've taken any, and there have been no negative side effects. It's the only drug that I might do again. None of the others hold any interest for me.

my personal interest is where the patient thinks they have done something amazing, no one can acknowledge it however just like an observed particle measuring it's existence changes it's location. In theory even if it just came down to a positive social experience how are we sure our manifestations aren't materialized in a spiraling duality.
