Man, why don't scientists ever abruptly take me out of my natural habitat and give me laboratory-grade drugs?
Ikr
Thats the aliens job
Aliens just touch you inaPROBEatly.
This esculated quickly
That's why people experience being obducted by aliens...
Scientists take those people out of their natural habitat by first drugging them with laboratory-grade drugs and then putting them in their labs.
The labs are designed to look like a spaceship and the scientists wear alien costumes during their experiments on those poor people. When they get released from those weird labs nobody believes them even though they actually saw "aliens" doing experiments on them :/
I once bought a pair of shoes from a drug dealer. I don’t know what he laced them with, but I was tripping the whole day.
Stolen joke

@@ATBZ So? Original jokes are dead.
Funny
Haha! 😄
I worked with octopuses in a Aquarium and they all had very different personalities. One was a neat freak so I would change her toys all around and she would come out and put them back where they belong. One ate too fast and got indigestion so his food was put in ice to slow down his eating. One was a show off and would put his belly and tentacles on the from glass to make a display. They were very fun.
This was real neat to read! Thanks for sharing! :)
As someone with severe PTSD, it’s really encouraging hearing how much research is being done to develop better treatments for people like me.
I was thinking the same thing. So far nothing has worked for me. So I am hoping at some point there will be something.
It really is nice to hear there’s studies out there helping us out! Marijuana has helped me with CPTSD, but I did end up psychologically addicted, so maybe don’t use it every day 😅
how do you know its "severe" PTSD?

Is an octopus _not_ on ecstasy just as freaked out by an octopus that _is_ on ecstasy as I would be by a dude coming up and rubbing himself on _my_ enclosure?
If I was an octopus, I would be generally afraid of octopuses. I'm usually afraid of things that consider me to be a delicious meal.

Excellent Comment!
Lol nice
Rubbing what?
I have PTSD and taking low doses of shrooms genuinely helps the symptoms of my ptsd (usually just general anxiety, I have trouble being around people even if I know them) and it helped me quit taking Xanax and dxm.

With the rats, that's basically what suboxon does for opiate dependencies. One of the biggest issues still being faced is that a lot of people assume that if they do more of the drug, they will feel something. But just because it doesn't get you high doesn't mean it doesn't still effect your body. A lot of people will OD because the high doesn't tell them to stop taking more.
Good point!

I have always wondered where the scientists got the drugs from that they use in their experiments. Do the make them themselves or have like the chemistry department whip up a batch? Also if they are testing illegal substances, how do they get through the red tape to be able to keep the drugs and work with them?
Could be seased evidence from drug busts...
Look up, How to cover up a drug scandal. And who freeway Rick was. The DEA supplies the drugs, the CIA provides guns and money. Open your eyes.
There's a lot of strict rules they have to take in consideration. Getting permission is a massive chore to the point where scientists often just give up on certain subjects, or even move to another country where they can get permission. A lot of research simply isn't getting done because of those strict rules, which is why the medical benefits of various recreational drugs are only now being researched.
Well I know that you can buy psilocybin from certain sources for scientific purposes. It's probably a bit harder to get stuff like heroine and cocaine, but I'm also quite sure that it is bought from and regulated by whichever government they are working under. I'm also quite sure there is a lot of paperwork involved to keep track of how much was bought and how much of the supply has been used to help keep people from stealing it and selling it on the street. As a scientist you can get whatever you want for research purposes. It just depends on if the cost and/or potential benefits are worth it.
There are specific forms used to track the orders of illegal substances that is kept on record with the DEA. Similar forms and procedures for tracking are used in pharmacy for controlled substances like oxycodone, etc. pharmacies cannot access the illegal drugs no longer used in medicine but research facilities can access the drugs for their work. It's very heavily regulated.

I cracked up thinking of the rejected fruit flies drowning their sorrows.
In the forest of northern AZ you can find magic mushrooms by following certain deer trails. The deer love to eat them and they know where the patches grow. Me and my brother found a patch of amanita muscaria mushrooms that a deer trail led directly too. We had to get the ones that hadn't quite popped up above ground yet because the deer would eat all the ones above ground.
I just stumbled onto your channel by chance...glad I did this is quite interesting thanks for the info look forward to watching more
So basically the fruit flies who didn't get laid drank alcohol to get over the rejection? Sounds familiar.
So, humans are basically fruit flies with internet. Wild..
Yea but even those that are getting laid drink alot too. So not much of a difference lol

I was diagnosed with complex PTSD, and in my 20s I spent 2 years taking either LSD or Shrooms almost every weekend. After about 2 years of doing this, I just kinda lost my desire to do it. I also stopped having the vast majority of PTSD symptoms.
Never messed with psychedelics until my 30s but a few shroom trips I’ve felt like my brain got rewired.
How often did you have sex on the LSD or shrooms
Cool but personally I am depressed either way :( I don't think a trip would be good for me nowadays because my state of mind is not good/positive and I fear that would cause a bad trip or something like a breakdown. After my little brother and mom died 5 months apart I was never the same. Too fragile for any bad trips

That sidenote about the octpuses on molly trying to hug another octopus in a container made my day. This is why I love science

Great information. As a former morphine patient and nurse, anyone who takes an opioid for an extended period of time will become addicted. A person that takes the same prescribed amount every day will become psychologically addicted. If they try to stop "cold turkey" they will go into withdrawal. This is the same withdrawal that an "addict" or "junkie" will go through (dopesick). What keeps most people hooked is the desire to not feel sick (it's like the flu multiplied several times over). Another spine injury patient described it to me like they "thought they were dying." I just wanted to clarify that it is possible to "use a medication correctly" and still be addicted. This is not uncommon in chronic pain patients.
You are absolutely right. Many of the soldiers that were wounded in Vietnam came home addicted to pain medication. Since there was really no treatment for this at the time a lot of them ended up as junkies dying as often as those who hadn't ever been prescribed opiates. I believe this has been true in plenty of other combat situations but it was Vietnam that brought it to medical and social attention as it was considered a "new" phenomena and was denied by the army doctors, (and by that time everybody knew that the army lied about everything).
"Play Solo with Chewie" is AMAZING
Magic mushrooms have enormous medical potential. The sooner we get over the war on drugs, the sooner we can use that utility.
Waiting for the day. Can't tell you how beneficial they'd be for the mental health society
I can’t find the report but it was rated as the “safest” illicit drug by ER doctors. By safest they cited the percentage of people who took them then required medical attention

i think the rat opioid one is problematic as a concept because people who need them after surgery or develop chronic pain may not be able to have those administered and work or there could be some pretty wild complications due to the immune response but i suppose they probably considered that

Former heroin addict and neurochem major here to let you know that while iv heroin releases some dopamine just after injection (during the "rush" phase) the primary neurotransmitter that heroin and other opiates act on is your μ and κ endorphin receptors, (pronounced "mu" and "kappa") also known as your opiate receptors which is what the primary addiction is to.

Incidentally, that “vaccine against oxycodone” one sounds a lot like the story of that tick that’s making people allergic to red meat. Basically, this tick bites animals often to consume their blood, including a particular protein known as alpha-gal for short (I need to jog my memory on the details). When the tick bites a human, this protein is injected into the body with everything else, and the resulting massive immune reaction basically makes the body enact a sweeping travel ban against everything that came in with the bite, including the alpha-gal. Thus, if the bitten person eats red meat after that, the alpha-gal will trigger an allergic reaction. You think a similar principle could be used with drugs? Though this one triggers a massive allergic reaction rather than simply blocking it with antibodies, and it may not even destroy the drug.
Gave my spiders weed all summer with out knowing. See, where I was smoking on my deck in the evening I noticed that many of the spiders were building webs underneath where I sit, with all the smoke going right up into their webs and let me tell ya, never got bit by one fly or mosquito all summer. The webs were strange in design( think right angle triangle types), but were better at catching food and thc because it was built by 7 separate spiders at once in a smallish area, little arses got creative lol.

psilocybin and MDMA have a positive effect on asthma symptoms. I have done those drugs in the past (not regularly but on a handful of occasions) and I had a noticeable and predictable effect on my asthma (I typically use an albuterol inhaler every day, usually once per day). My asthma symptoms became completely nonexistent. So this might be worth looking into.

This all sounds really cool, and I'm looking forward to more discoveries related to these things and for the potential treatments that come out of it. It would really be great to have a drug that's better at treating my PTSD.
I'd probably be willing to go through a drug trial to test the effectiveness of it.
If they start doing trials on a cannabis treatment for PTSD, I'd volunteer, because I know it helps me with my symptoms/the core of what causes my symptoms.
I should use weed when I'm doing therapy to relearn how to react to my triggers, since it surpresses the threat response in my brain, making it easier for me to handle those topics/situations/memories. It puts then in a better light.
Microdosing mushrooms or acid could help as well. Both have incredible potential to treat PTSD.
I don't know when this video was made but...... they do have a pill and monthly injection that negates opiates. Not arcane which is for overdoses but a drug that renders the user unable to feel the pleasurable effects of opiates such as percocet and heroin.

This is fascinating stuff!
The psilocybin one has me interested because maybe it could be used to treat anxiety and/or depressive disorders too.
The psilocybin one was really interesting. I've often said that it's good to 'trip reset' once every couple years, because you eventually reach a state where you appreciate everything in life 'as it is' without negative judgements. I always thought that it was because the brain gets so confused during the trip, it resets all the habitual thought processes your brain had previously created. You move past fears like social anxiety, implementing a regimen without fear of failure -- just a general positivity for all things. But again, once every couple years. Oh, and there are microdoses that people use to manage innovation in a typical day.
I try to go every full moon, helps my anxiety alot.
My life has been pretty f*cord over the past year but when I took shrooms last a couple weeks ago I found myself able to lay down in my bed, look at my ceiling and think to myself with a genuine smile, “life is gonna be tough, but I’m ready”
I do shrooms/lsd once or twice a year and i find it helps me see a different perspective on whats going on in my life and how i can take further action to grow myself. I dont agree with abusing them like some people i know who take them almost every weekend and they're usually more miserable than those who dont even use them. Moderation is key
@@danielhanlon8438 I read so much positive feedback online but still the possibility of dropping into psychosis is too big of a risk for me. I wish science could find out either which people can and cannot tolerate hallucinogens or how to make a trip 100% safe.

I think every few months is fine too. At least once a year for that great reset and healing.

@@robertjarman3703 not sure if you're disagreeing or adding information, but yes. In double blind experiment, the researcher doesn't know whether which treatment group the individual is in - the group receiving the treatment or the placebo group - to prevent either group from acting differently.
Sanusha Galappathy I was concurring with you.

I have no idea why RUclips recommended this for me, but I'm glad it did.
Can anyone explain why they felt the need to give a placebo to the un-drugged set of octopuses?
Funny, was gonna write the same thing.
They needed a control set-up to compare the results.
The act of giving something to the octopus could change its behavior, rather than the drug itself. The control was to rule this out.
Sometimes, the act of giving something to someone, in this case the octupus, can alter their behavior. For example, if the drug was given through injection, the simple fact that they were injected could increase their stress and make them act differently. To make sure that the only variable affecting the behavior is the drug, you would give an MDMA injection to one group and a saline injection to the other group. If the behavior is different, then you know that the injection itself isn't doing anything since both groups received it. If you just do nothing with the control group and you see a difference, you have no way of knowing what caused the reaction (the drug or the injection itself).
I understand the concept of a placebo, but that would mean they assumed that the octopuses understood the whole concept of drugs, drug testing, control groups, etc. UNLESS it had been an injection - then I guess that would be understandable. But if they’re just slipping something into their food . . .
I know octopuses are extremely intelligent, but really?
Since we're being pedantic,
To all those commenting on the "incorrectness" of his usage of "octopuses":
*You* are incorrect! Octopuses is actually the correct plural, and the adopted "i" form (octopi) is now considered an acceptable alternative, even though it was originally incorrect.
Do your research!
I opt to use the word cephalopod instead 🐙
G N did you mean: cephalopods? 😂
Ganond Orc ... its the same word but you added and s at the end
Skyler The Bitchworm That's the joke. I was being extra fastidious with the plurality of it.
Ganond Orc Uhh, yeah, yeah that's what I meant 😫
I know someone who's uncle put a frog in a jar and blew weed smoke into it. Apparently it did a backflip
You seem very excitable and enthusiastic..... while presenting this fascinating feature..................

I'm more down with the octopus MDMA hugging session.

Ex causes empathy? Sounds like we need to forcibly micro-dose the entire government on a regular basis.
Stimulant micro doses actually have wierd effects like increasing dopamine receptors density by having the opposite effect they normally do. Really wierd nonlinear pharmacology, theres some really intresting studies on micro doses of amphetamine or methamphetamine on domapine receptor density in the brain.
This is how every addict starts an addiction. What if I just took a lil bit everyday cuz it makes me feel better. Myself included.
@@altoid8450 kinda but it's way different and just do you know I was an addict for 15 yrs so I do not put myself above you micro-dosing is using such a small amount that it rarely has any effect as far as a high but they have been finding out that the effect has been good and even great on whatever it is they are studying .....it's been on so many different topics and so many different drugs it's kinda cool man if the government is gonna allow it?? But like they say EVERYTHING in moderation!!!😁✌
Altoid 84 That's not how every addict starts.
That's how a lot start to justify it, but by the time you're needing to justify it you're already beyond a small dose.
A small dose wouldn't harm you physically, socially, nor financially, and if it doesnt bring negative consequences then it's not an addiction.
Addiction through the "just a little bit" pathway comes because people take "just enough to feel it."
@@altoid8450 lol my exact quote 6 years ago before I landed in rehab
I put this video in 1.5x speed and our host, Hank Green, seemed overly enthusiastic, as if on cocaine. Now we know why SciShow is so addictive, and why Hank keeps coming back to host the show. "5 Times RUclipsrs Gave Hosts Drugs (and What We Learned)"
