Trump just signed EO to remove federal ban on psychedelic drugs.

It just seems to me that the last thing you would want to do to someone who's having a PTSD flashback, is give them something to make them more psychotic.

But that's just my humble opinion, based on experience. Psychedelic drugs do after all create a drug-induced form of psychosis.

Yet that is what they do. Those with severe PTSD swear by the treatment. If kept in a controlled environment, I need more to disregard it.

Half of you are clearly on Psychedelic drugs. Regardless… I generally trust Doctors over Politicians.

Worse case scenario: One more step towards Huxley’s Brave New World.

Yep, you certainly would know all of the warning signs, that explains a lot, but guess which half of us are perpetually out of contact with reality with crazy ideas living sociopathic lives chasing after colored rainbows?

Oh yeah. This half. The half that has been waving all of the warning signs in our faces for years. Remember, the psychedelic, hippie counterculture BEGAN in the 60's with the Left, these are the people now trying to run the world as adults and making a complete mess of it.

All rainbows are colored, genius.

Toofreak, I worry about you sometimes. I hope they are changing your adult diaper regularly and treating you ok.

Not if you only have monochromatic vision, Dew Drop.

Have no qualms, Bucky. When they do, I am always sure to have them stuff the dirty, smelly thing into your mailbox. In fact, I eat an extra special high fiber, diarrhetic diet so to be sure it is good and runny for you too. But at least now you know why your house attracts so many flies.

I'm right there with you ... except I've seen too many reports that it's done a lot of people good.
I don't get it either. I would think it would be the absolute last approach you would want to try. But under psychiatric supervision, I guess it can work?
