- Using psychedelics to treat depression and trauma has just become legal in Australia. Offering hope to many, it’s not without risk. While many report life-changing benefits, others do not, and many scientists in the field fear the move is premature.
Dr Paul Liknaitsky from Monash University is running a clinical trial looking at psychedelic assisted psychotherapy, with promising results.
Professor Susan Rossell, Swinburne University of Technology, is running a trial with psilocybin, the active ingredient in magic mushrooms, for treatment resistant depression. They’ve had a mixed outcome.
Some are experimenting and using psychedelics illegally. Writer Tim Baker went to an underground practitioner to use MDMA for end-of-life distress.
Vietnam veteran Roger Priest is hoping to be one of the first to legally use psychedelic assisted psychotherapy for treating PTSD with his psychiatrist Stuart Saker.

looking at the good effects of psilocybin mushrooms on depression I had a test, the effects of just one dose of psilocybin mushroom gave me an
amazing healing..
Psilocybin mushrooms can help us break down the barriers between ourselves and others and foster a sense of empathy and compassion.
When taken under supported conditions, psilocybin mushrooms can cause self-described spiritual experiences that generally result in positive changes in the person's attitude, mood and hehavior

Psilocybin saved my life
Would you mind sharing more? I’m looking into it for myself but worried about a bad trip.
How?
You owe it to us kindly to not leave cliff-hanging and instead teach us your sharing experience.

Bad trips are learning lessons @@PWH59

how would thy get hold of of dimitri ??🤔?? @@Sophia-mn5mb
Yes, but they legally sell them here in the states now, but I think that's a little bit irresponsible with the info they are putting out about their effects on mental health, but not allowing people to know how to heal themselves at home.. I worry that more people might accidentally traumatize themselves further by using them improperly.
Why do people accept 3rd parties regardless of their "EXPERTISE" telling them what they can or can't put into their own bodies? It's not just pathetic,it's draconian in the extreme.
It is called…”my life I do with it what I want”…..and….it’s called “having a choice” too.
@@CatsJP Well said.
Psychedelic feelings is the best

Please post an update, especially with Roger.
Thank you. 🌊
@@Franklin-kh6up What is it mate?
Dr Paul is very impressive, he and other experts in this field are opening a clinic in Abbotsford, Melbourne, (Clarion Clinics) looking forward to learning more about this :)
24K AUD over 9 months - well impressive
It's help for the rich but pain for the poor
@@Mannsy83 I'm not sure where you live but here in the U.S. you can go down to your local smoke shop and buy a legal psychedelic called Amanita Muscaria. It's a type of mushroom that looks like the mushroom from Super Mario. It was used in Siberian Shamanism for thousands of years and it works. It usually goes for around forty or fifty dollars. 🍄🍄🍄
@@poor_impulsive is it 9 months? How is that possible unless it's multiple dosing sessions?
Thank you so so much Roger for your service. I’m sorry you have had to go through the horrible mental sides effects of war. My grandfather unfortunately took his life after suffering the same as you on his return after WW2, after 30 plus years he couldn’t do it anymore. I have also suffered from
Depression/anxiety/ptsd for many years and most antidepressants also have sent me over the edge and in a downward slope. 15 medications I have tried with no real success. I say give people like us the opportunity to try this stuff, we have nothing to loose, only our luves❤

24K AUD over 9 months - would be easier for you to just travel to the Netherlands
I’m with Tim 👏🏼 best thing I ever did… if it was easily accessible to treat mental health I would’ve been cured many years ago
It’s a shame it’s so expensive but at least it’s a step in the right direction.
Psilocybin Mushroom saved my life from depression and Anxiety, I microdose psilocybin every day. One ought to take the right dosage, below is where I usually obtain mine, and could guide you through if you are a newbie?…..

I personally suffered years of depression and ptsd. After the use of ayahuasca the derpressions never returned. The ptsd took a bit longer. Now i take psilocybin mushrooms ones or two times a year, to remind me of the wisdom surounding these natural substances.
How did it help the depression? Did you see things in a new light or was it more fixed your chemical makeup
@@Mannsy83 It was a very strong experience. But immediately afterwards it felt like the missing chemicals were ballanced again. In the three months after i had to work trough emotional challenges. I've still got the recipe if you are interested. Don't do this on your own though. Find someone who's an experienced and safe facilitator.
@@izzydawiz7486 thank you. I've found a therapist that offers it. To be honest I'm so worried I'm going to have to end my life. I'm so messed up, every day is depression and I can't do much more. Was your depression bad?
@@Mannsy83 I've experienced depression for 25 years, with some periods being particularly severe, including hallucinations and a belief that it would never end. Interactions with others would send my mind into chaos, leaving me feeling completely lost and lonely. But let's talk about you.
Hang in there. Ayahuasca is unlike any medicine we're familiar with; it's closer to a magical potion than a pharmaceutical drug. Ayahuasca led me to a point where I had to release everything and simply allow it to happen. I understand this may seem counterintuitive in your current state of mind. But remember, Ayahuasca isn't human; it doesn't make mistakes.
Since I stopped trusting people completely, Ayahuasca became my only option.
If you're interested, I can guide you through the process afterward. Trust in the journey and take the dieta sirously. If you need any other info just ask.
let luck guide you. J

The woman in the thumbnail looks like that missing girl “Emma“ - can’t remember her last name - she was the girl who was living in/out of women’s shelter, was in to photography, very pretty w/ a free spirit. She was last seen on the street acting afraid , barefoot and had a welfare check on the street corner but legally they had to let her go. Anywho. That pic where did it come from?
Which experts? Hmmm? There are mo experts that they can source. They made that up?

Poisonous mushrooms are natural too
No one is advocating taking poisonous mushrooms. What are you trying to say?

It's a shame you didn't interview anyone who is against psychodelics. The dangers were highlighted for about 5-10% of the article and I thought they were sugar coated when talked about.
Do some reading..they are not as bad as the old wrap they got back in the 60 and 70s…take it from one who lived that era and used them.

🍄 > any pill. Forget about Isd.
Grow. Yourself.
every drug can be dangerous & every drug can be safe. It all depends on you & your correct dosage. I use delics every week & I've never felt more like myself.
when nothing else works what do u do ,have you ever taken seriously? talk about poison that stuff is poison. one pill and your done , unable to function. get ready to stay in bed. gee that's helpful for someone who already can't function
seroquel not seriously 😅
