Turn on, tune in, chill out. Maybe...

Me? I'm still waiting for the flashbacks they told me I was gonna get from downing blotter, but that's a story for another day maybe. Anyway, according to this report, dropping a little acid, once a symbol of 1960s counterculture - the drug lysergic acid diethylamide, commonly known as LSD, is emerging from research labs as a possible treatment for anxiety.
 

Preliminary trial results published in the medical journal JAMA suggest that a single dose of MM120, an oral pharmaceutical formulation of LSD, can significantly reduce symptoms of generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), offering a potential alternative to daily medications.
 

However, experts caution that these are early results, and many treatments that show promise in preliminary trials don't always succeed in later studies.

  1. Psychedelics have been shown since the 1950s to be powerfully effective in CURING psychological problems of a widely varied nature. They are safe and effective when taken in an appropriate setting with guidance, the same way they have been used over the millennia by native cultures and their shaman equivalents. Indeed, reckless use of powerful chemicals that peel back the ego structure that defines our subjective version of reality can lead to problems. Proper use on the other hand should be considered a powerful tool to help all who need it. That our government claims to OWN all of us and deny everyone the right to treat their own bodies as THEIRS, just shows the tyranny we all live under. That millions are denied the right to CURE their disabling mental issues ALL TO PROTECT the monopoly and profits of BigPharma is truly disgusting. These CURE, while BigPharma merely treats symptoms for a lifetime. Thankfully RFK Jr and others are in support of this research.
