Lol
Physicians should not be gatekeepers for psychedelics.
No shit dumb ass drugs are good
Johnny come lately’s
Psychedelics are way easily accessible for me from a mycologist who introduced me to dmt and other psychedelics products
Psychedelics have the potential to make a significant impact on mental health issues like anxiety and depression. They've been incredibly helpful for me personally.
I've been looking to try some recently, but I can't find anywhere to source.
dr.tonyshrooms is your guy. The best shrooms and psychedelics guy I know.
He's on instgram??
Yes
I had my first experience with golden teachers, it was really great.
I'm a veteran, was actually addicted to alcohol and cigarettes. I suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Got diagnosed with cptsd. Not until my wife recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 8 years totally clean. Respect mother nature and the only great magic shrooms.
Amen God bless people. Save your health save your mind. Life is better without heroin, cocaine, alcohol and cigarettes. And you have more money in your pocket. God bless everyone who has rejected the devils intentions to be addicted to alcohol and cigarettes etc which can cause so much damage to health.
Can you help me with the reliable source 🙏. I'm 56 and have suffered for years with addiction, anxiety and severe ptsd, I got my panic attacks under control myself years ago and they have come back with a vengeance, I'm constantly trying to take full breaths but can't get the full satisfying breath out, it's absolutely crippling me, i live in Australia. I don't know much about these mushrooms. Really need a reliable source!! Can't wait to get them.
YES very sure of Dr.alishrooms. I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD and addiction and Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today.
I'm really happy for you that your wife decided to help you...I hear about alot of family members or so called friends shutting an addict out of their life, which since most addicts do it to mask emotions to me is the worse thing someone can do to an addict.
How do I reach out to him? Is he on insta
Psychedelics have the ability to induce profound altered states of consciousness.
True, it helped me in facilitating deep emotional processing and introspection.
Do you know where i can get one? I really need this shit to clear my head.
I got mine from dr.stolly
Is he on Instgram
Yes, Dr.stolly saved my cousin from bipolar disorder and some addiction. It has a lot of potential benefits
People that have done psychedelics have been saying this for decades. It shouldn’t require millions of dollars to prove these effective. The government & pharma industry need to get out of the way. It also shouldn’t cost an arm and a leg to partake in psychedelic assisted therapy. Regardless, thank you guys for spreading the message.
Just posted a similar comment. People have known this since the 70s yet these scientists and the government know better! It's all for you protection as they wouldn't want you to harm yourself! That's why legalise alcohol & nicotine so you can slowly kill yourself. Alcohol is one of the most pernicious and damaging drugs out there, yet you can walk into any shop and get the stuff. But you're not allowed to take one trip of mushrooms or lsd and have one of the most profound experiences you'll have in your lifetime with the potential to lead to the cessation of these government controlled substances - along with pharmaceutical drugs. We know psychedelics are extremely low on the addiction chart yet they're still classed as a schedule 1 drug.
It only gets “officially” approved when the goverment finds a way to make money off it
Big pharma especially needs to FO!
You're not going to convince medical mafia to forfeit one of their most profitable rackets without a gunfight, and you're never going to convince the politiwhores to stop taking money from the medical mafia without a bidding war.
100% not a single doubt in my mind, that ppl have been using them for decades/ thousands of years, and I hoesntly believe many of the things that we have been taught even religion type stuff has been through psycedelics
Psychedelic mushrooms really healed me years back.
These are great healing compounds! When used in proper context.
I've been looking to try some recently, but I can't find anywhere to get them, anyone?
doc.jeanne_ is your guy. Got all kinds of psychedelics stuff. Guided me through my first ever experience
Is on Instgram?
Yesss.
I just had my first experience with golden teachers, it was really great! I loved it.
Psilocybin saved my life. I was addicted to heroin for 15 years and after Psilocybin treatment I will be 3 years clean in September. I have zero cravings. This is something that truly needs to be more broadly used in addiction treatment.
Psychedelics definitely have potential to deal with mental health issues such as anxiety and depression, I would like to give them a try but haven't found any legit grower to get it.
@@APOLLINAIREBARTHOLOMIEUYes, dr.sporesss
A lot of people have testified about this and I really want to give it a shot. I put so much on my plate and it definitely affects my stress and anxiety levels
@@eddiejohn8506Is he on instagram?
The Trips I've been having have really helped me a lot,I finally feel in control of my emotions and my future and things that used to be mundane to me now seem incredible and full of nuance on top of that I'm way less driven by my ego and I have alot more empathy as well
Psychedelics has changed my life, and literally saved my marriage! I’m so much more patient and caring now. I now love the outdoors and can appreciate everything in nature. Just got back from camping and I sat there most of the time observing the birds and nature’s dance. I’m so grateful
never taken any psychedelics but hopefully it opens doors for me to happiness
@@eyelikefetty4840 it's a powerfull tool, go at it carefully
I just start to interest in psychedelic. How long does it take your brain? And how many times you have to use it before your brain change?
What are you taking?? I'm really interested in saving my marriage too 😂❤
Me too!
Psychedelics saved me from years of uncontrollable depression, anxiety and illicit pill addiction. Believe it or not in a couple years they'll be all over for treatment of mental health related issues.

I just had my first experience with golden teachers, it was really great! I loved it.
The use of magic mushrooms can completely help one get over addiction and depression. It totally rewires your mind
Can Wonkyshroom post to me in OH?
Psilocybin transformed my relationship with myself and has given me agency over a long standing PTSD diagnosis.
I came around to say something similar,
Ever tell yourself something but underneath you know you don’t believe it? Even if you knew what you said is true but the underlying systems don’t agree?
Having PTSD and taking large (controlled) dose of shrooms paired with (a lot of previous) cog. Beh. Therapy felt like 1000 hours of therapy.
In a sense, it brought everything to the same level of focus so I could pick what to keep and what to let go.
Jodi, were you in a good space when you did em? I need the breakthrough but I’m worried they’ll break me with my current head space 😅
Would you please describe the set and setting for your shroom trip? Asking to have an idea of how to go about one myself. I don't want to have to wait for those MDMA sessions tbh
Dmt did wonders for c-ptsd in particular. I think it really needs to be studied for that specific form of ptsd.
Phsychedelics helped me quit illicit pills addiction, I was messed up I was depressed and a danger to myself. Good videos and help like this should be seen always.
Is he instgram?
Sure, dr.blakee
@@zackmm4917is he reliable, I lost contact with my supplier
It ’s wild, everyone’s feel of shrooms is different though
I love myself when I’m on shrooms, lol everything feels right.
I have done shrooms in small doses a few times, but a couple days ago I took almost 4 grams and had my first actual trip.l believe I truly experienced ego death..
I remember having some minor surgery years ago and at that point I had never done any kind of drug at all. I didn't even drink small amounts of coffee or alcohol. They hit me with an intravenous dose of shrooms and I felt so good, so positive, and so thoughtful that I felt like I could've talked Hitler out of a wagging war.
I learned more about myself on one trip than I have through over a year of therapy.
Hey.. I'm interested in trying emm.. where do you fetch ?

My youngest teenage son seemed to mature almost over night early last year. Then I noticed him meditating. In talking with him I learned he had tried some mushrooms and it had changed his reality. The way he described it was to let go of everything and see it without any bias. I've been wanting to try them ever since. All this stems from my "stuck" son who is so depressed he can sleep for 16 hours a day sometimes.. I think mushrooms are quietly changing our world.
hey question what kind of mushroom did he use and how much i really wanne try this for my depression

Paul Stamets needs to be added to that list as well. He has paved the way for much research in mycology.
I’m not sure that he hasn’t disgraced himself by selling supplements.
Agreed. And what about Terence McKenna? 🤔☺
He just had a newly discovered Mushroom named after him. Psilocybe Stametsii!
@@pcaul8156 he sold garbage quality stuff, mycelium on grain instead of whole fruiting bodies.
@@TheCALMInstitute Paul sells top quality mushroom supplements that fulfil a great need. He is not just about Psilocybin. He is about all things mycelia.
Psychedelic help a lot and they’re like a cheat sheet to life, but you could also experience the same things. Psychedelic amp tf out whilst being sober, meditation and astral projection are key.//_
Psychedelics is a tool in which the universe uses to connect with us, we understand without words
We listen without distractions,we agree without arguments.
Psychedelics tend to fix problems at their core,unlike modern medicine which tries to fix the symptoms. This is why psychedelics work great for depression,addiction etc.
Ive always been open to try and see what is really beyond, what is brought out through atoms and particles in the reality of what we live in. And just open up my consciousness to a whole new plane, but how do you get ahold of em?
I’ll recommend you to a store I got my psychedelics products.
dr_xzavier.
Is he on insta, how do I get thru.?
this will truly bend the arc of history. I've been waiting for this moment for so long and I'm so happy you guys can finally speak about this to the world.
Bend history back to it was before western capitalism. Psychedelics were used all over the world. Celtic England and Germany, Americas, Africa etc
Huberman is late to the party. He even said it himself that he was scared to talk about this. Michael pollan has been talking about this for a very long time. Hamilton Morris has been talking about this for a very long time. Outside of the mainstream media has been having this discussion for a very long time. Now once huberman sees that these brave individuals have not been tarred and feathered he comes out to talk about it? He is not at the forefront of anything unfortunately, especially not psychedelics.

‘These compounds are going to change the arc of history’ Profound statement. Let’s make it happen.
We might want to consider getting the Medical Industrial Complex out of the way as a middleman (at least for anyone and everyone not in a clear and severely high risk mental condition). Trip sitter qualifications for 99% of the world: responsible-ish adult, sober, and awake.
The rest is pernicious money grabbing window dressing to enable the same industries that have saturated the world in ridiculous, designed to be habitual compounds (from lithium to benzos to SSRIs) that are either worthless, beneficial but addictive, or some combo of these).
Your.body. Your mind. Your consciousness. Your soul. Life is risk. Ingest whatever you like. Build whatever process to maximize the therapeutic potential, including professionals, but don't allow these powerful compounds to be doled out by the dastardly folks selling obesity drugs, statins, Vioxx, etc etc etc. Somehow, they'll fuck up a good thing and in the most idealistic scenario imaginable, they're drive the cost up 100x or more as the carve out there latest pound of flesh from a beleaguered, confused, depressed, traumatized global population.
Think about it..
hearing it said in those exact words gave me goosebumps... it is most definitely true
Psychedelics are just an amazing discovery. It's quite fascinating how effective they are for depression and stress..saved my life.
Psychedelics definitely have potential to deal with health issues like anxiety and depression, I would like to try them but it's just hard to source out here.
I'm feeling the same way too. I put so much on my plate and it definitelv affects mv stress and anxietv levels

Mdma showed me I could love myself at 17, when things in school and at home were really tuff. To know that you can love yourself is a blessing! Love the nighties :)
Thank you Dr. Huberman for having the bravery to tell the truth about psychs
Andrew Huberman- IT'S ABOUT TIME!! haha ;) I've been listening to you since the start of your podcast. I'm so glad to hear you're finding balance in your psyche via psychedelics. As a therapist myself, I see many high-achievers get to where they are because of a traumatic past; a sort of "flip the script" or "reverse the curse." The degree to which they achieve is of equal, b;ut opposite, order of magnitude congruent to their trauma. At some point, they reach a personal vertex only to realize they're still not happy. The use of psychedelics allows a type of "centering" that anchors people to their own calm middle ground; a place between what we perceive as our psychological extremes. We don't have to exist in a "0 or 180 degree" state; we can exist at 90 degrees, while also knowing we'll always have access to all degrees between 0-180 if we consciously choose to use those parts. With further growth, we realize we have access to 360 degrees of consciousness in our psyche, and then the dimensions expand from 2D to 3D; and we see ALL of ourselves within the context of our interpersonal relationship dynamics. I'm SO HAPPY FOR YOUR GROWTH!!!!
this is beautifully written!!

i love this analogy
I convinced my mom who has never done drugs or ever been drunk (she’s 68) to do mushrooms.
Truly what she needed. She said she wished all her friends could experience it. She called it “ a reset.”
I know personally it was one of the most needed and meaningful experiences I had ever had.
I would go every 6 months or so and do 3.5G alone, with intent.
I have no need anymore but do see the mass benefits.
It’s here on our earth for a reason. ❤
Same here. Great benefit for me when done with good resposnible intentions. I dont need to do them anymore either but i can reset if needed
Or just microdose frequently
What where how
Is it a center that u ho to
@@katemccrew no I just did it at my house with my mom. With myself I would go and stay in a hotel for a night. I like to set an intention and then go and be alone. Eye mask and headphones 🎧 and just let whatever needs to come, come.
If there was fear and you would want to be supervised I know there are some people who offer to “trip sit” and you would rent an Airbnb and have your experience there. They usually would supply what you need as well.
My son bought me a book called “The psychedelic explorers guide.” Could be helpful if you are just starting out.
Don't forget to respect the mushrooms, Golden Teacher basically,they have some very powerful potential. I just did about 7g on 4/12/2023 and it went well actually but barely escaped a bad trip.
It is absolutely beautiful how people talk so many things about psychedelic and magic mushrooms too..
Everyone focused on how magic mushrooms can change and also save lives.. I haven't try it but I deep down I really what to try it.. just looking for a reliable source..
Psychedelics drugs should be used
When people are in their right state of mind, alot of people abuse them..

How amazing to see Dr. Huberman so obviously moved by his personal, guided, experiences with psychedelics. Yes, finally thanks to MAPS and Co. there will be an astounding clamor for how these medicines are profound in their scope of provoking self-reflection on what this life is about. May the availability come sooner than later. The healing will spread far and wide.
@Amelia Golden ?info? 😂
Hi everyone. I did psilocybin last night for the first time. I'm 19 YR.
And trust me its like you reach out to everything you always wanted. Its like you meet the divine energy and higher power. And that loving energy comes from the mind. And that blows your mind. Its like there is absolutely no past , now , or future. Time doesn't mean anything if U R on the right does.
I’m really excited to see where the next decade takes us in this field. I’m glad to say that here in Australia from this coming July psilocybin and MDMA will be able to be accessed legally from licences psychiatrists for mental health issues. Very proud moment for us. First nation in the world to be doing so. This sets a precedent for the rest of the world.
Yep! I bet you'll have to jump through hoops to have access and I can almost guarantee your GP will have to get Government permission to treat anyone first as well, I have no idea though. Every Australian could do with a hero dose right now. Apparently 1 in 6 Australians have thought about suicide in the last year😢,( i have no idea how big the study was)
@@kerryangus3030 nah I don’t really think there will be any kind of hurdles like that, I think the part that will make it difficult will be getting in to see a psychiatrist without a 6 month waiting list because of how busy they all already currently are!
That is great! Gotta move to Australia!
> First nation in the world to be doing so
Ya know, other than all of the other ones where mushrooms were already legal
@@shardj5151 I'm talking about using psilocybin and MDMA legally in a therapeutic setting with psychologists etc. and not only in a trial setting. In those few places where mushrooms are legal to consume are they being used to help treatment-resistant depression? This is what I am referring to.
I feel intense positive emotions just from the act of remembering some of my most profound trips.
A very articulate and intelligent overview of the research on psychedelics as a medical treatment. Great respect to Huberman for his work and his commitment.
The great thing now is how much knowledge is available to we lay people. Bet we're ahead of most professionals. Not because we're smart but we haven't the "disadvantage" of old school teaching. Probably if I had spent all that money and time getting that paper, I'd stand by it also.
I LOVE this convo!! I'm late to the game too because I used to believe psychedelics would threaten my sobriety with alcohol so I just considered them off limits (plus they kinda scare the sh!t out of me after a huge mushroom dose I had as a teenager...). Now I realize that actually these visionary plants have the potential to heal a lot of what was under so many of our alcohol addiction in the first place; trauma, anxiety, depression...
So yea, the recent data helped me change my mind. And so a few months ago, at 13 years sober from alcohol, I went to Peru and drank ayahuasca for the first time. And honestly I don't think it would have been possible to heal and evolve in the way that I have from ayahuasca with any other healing modality. There's something deeply profound, beyond words, to experience what seems like existing as consciousness traveling through dimensions without a body, mind, personality, identity... and then come back. It really puts everything in a new perspective and has left me feeling very empowered.
Here we've got LSD, DMT, chocolate bars, shrooms varieties, psilocybin, best therapy for anxiety, depression, ADHD, BIPOLAR, PTS, we ship internationally
Shrooms nearly removed my social anxiety and alcohol cravings. Now I can drink a glass of wine and not finish it, whereas, before, I felt compelled to drink and not stop. I think that was driven by underlying social anxiety. I used to go to social functions, or the gym, and before begining the event I would sit in my car to psych myself up for social interaction. Then during the event I would feel very stressed, and my heart would race. Now, I feel fairly comfortable talking to, and being around, people.
Preciate your comment, I've great time while breaking through shrooms, shrooms and other psychs are readily accessible from this specialist I hooked with he's super reliable and also ship's discreetly worldwide..

I am microdosing atm and it has changed me dramatically. It has helped with my panic attacks and chronic migraines. It makes me think in a different very constructive way. It makes me think about me. I am exercising, eating a wonderful healthy diet and no junk food to speak of. And it has stopped from procrastinating. That issue died. This just an amazing transformation!
Please can you say which one, mushrooms? I'm struggling with junk food!
i think joe rogan deserves a lot of credit for providing a platform for popularizing the idea of taking psychedelic intervention in order to navigate traumatic experiences. i've been a pretty straight arrow my whole life; i've consumed alcohol less than the number of fingers i have on my hands in my whole life. but making this stuff legal and accessible means there's a potential new perspective out there when it comes to the shitty experiences many of us have to carry with us
Thank you, from my heart. Both of you are really inspiring and you've changed my life in a profound (and positive!) way. Wolf
Psilocybin is helping release and navigate traumatic grief and loss of my only child, my daughter Kaylah Orban at age 22. I have struggled with depression all my life and it’s helping realize so much more about Spirituality and Consciousness as well as Heal the past by releasing it. Thank you for sharing.
NN DMT helped me go through a 30 years never ending mourning of my grand mother. Instantly! I can't explain what happened in my brain. But I have to say I am happy I found it
Kind of amazing how if you take something that kills the ego, you can actually process stuff you've been stuck in for too long.
I micro dosed mushrooms after fighting depression for over 7years, being incapable of work for the last 2years.
In shot summary I became depression free within a couple of months and still I'm 6months later it saved me.

Andrew and Tim are such a gift to humanity. What an exciting time.
I am new to the psychedelics and have only tried psilocybin for a couple of months now. In my career as a hairdresser I have seen and heard so much traumatic stories of my clients and I truly beleive that combined with the right doses, education on the matter and some deep work integrating music, journaling thoughts after each session and a few other tools that psychedelics have the power to heal humanity and this world. It has really helped me accept my negative self talk and thoughts due to ADHD. Lets hope we are smart enough to have a open mind.
Psilocybin helped me kick alcoholism, healed my anxiety, and changed my life. The world needs these now!!!!
But they can Create schizopherinia ✌
@@aymalkhan5781 I studied extensively and have a fair amount of observational experience. I have never seen evidence of them creating it. However, they could exacerbate the condition. I would never recommend someone try them who has been diagnosed with that condition.
I am so grateful to be witnessing the change of mind many health professionals are now realizing and supporting the use of these medicines.
8 years ago they literally saved my life. I was also overjoyed in your statement about music being an integral part of the process as I am now and have been for several years the provider of music for ceremonies utilizing these medicines.
Thank you so much. Your belief and support is going to be very appreciated.
Much love
I'm so happy to hear Andrew change his stance. I was confused when he was against psychedelics.
Talks like these are instrumental to the “bending of the arc” that Tim mentioned. These things are powerful and not to be conflated with the broad category of “drugs” that people use solely to have a good time or escape real problems. Psilocybin is powerful and has been very important in my own growth and development and I can’t wait for more to be discovered about these mystical mushrooms.
I truly appreciate the changing conversation around psychedelics and I am grateful for anyone who keeps doing the important pioneer work to show people their true nature and potential. That said, a few things that were said in this talk don't sit quite right with me.
Thanking the people who pushed for legal research, etc. is very much warranted and important. But imo it's just as important to thank the people who've risked their freedom and in some cases even their lives to bring these substances to the people while a large portion of the population condemned them due to their own misconceptions. We also have to thank the people who truly pioneered the research throughout the past century, both legally and illegaly. Those who weren't afraid to stand by their experiences and beliefs in the face of massive negative propaganda.
The emphasis on only taking these compounds with licensed medical personell, while aiming at harm reduction and safe use, which is commendable, doesn't do reality justice. I've had massively therapeutic, transformative experience with psychedelics with some good friends out in nature and to me that is still one of the best possible settings one could wish for. Of course not everyone is lucky enough to have friends they can be 100% themselves and vulnerable around and I get that even today being very careful about how you communicate your stance around this topic is important, but I couldn't let that stand on its own.
I think the emphasis of using these as medicines in a professionally regulated environment comes from caution. Caution not to awaken the fear of the powers that be (corporations, government, inherent human conservativism "it's always been classified as dangerous for as long as I and my parents remember so it must be dangerous"). It needs to be a step by step process, starting with proven, publicly repeated over and over again therapeutic successes until it can start to become truly socially acceptable. This is to avoid another big crackdown Nixon style.
Nicely put, I agree very much. One thought I had, reading your comment: could it be, that even in this phase that we're in, concerning psychedelics and for the sake of creating public support, it would be wise NOT to overstate the recreational use but rather the therapeutic use first?
I mean, coming from condemnation and labelling, maybe the contrast to openly advocating for recreational use might just be one step too far, imho.
Again, don't get me wrong, I 100% relate to your experience, I have had the great fortune of having the greatest experiences myself also with like-minded friends on both MDMA and psilocybin and unless contra-indicated for medical or psychiatric reasons, I would in fact recommend anyone to also have these experiences outside of a controlled, "therapeutic" setting, because imho, these compounds bear in themselves the therapeutic qualities already 🙏
@@1samm1 my thought exactly 😉👇
"licensed medical personnel" were the ones carrying out mk ultra, abusing large numbers of psychiatric patients and using these substances in the development of the USA's torture program during the 60s. I fail to see how being part of the medical establishment is at all related to being trustworthy or a good therapist
I'm just glad everyone is starting to wake up. It's very hard to control people if they are robbed of tools of enlightenment.
Just want to say thank you Andrew. I've been listening to you more these days. It's fun for me being a psychologist to listen to a neuroscientist.
Thanks to both of you for making this more known. The used dosage (equals about 3g dried psilocybe cubensis) is not yet heroic dose, but high enough to push trough most of defense mechanisms.
Psilocybin has helped me a LOT, especially those higher dose introsprect trips, and also low dose nature trips.
(Also had a so called "horrortrip" because I wasn't able to let go... so it's not allway fun)
Hopefully Psilocybin assisted therapy will be No.1 treatment for depression.🙏 Can safe many lifes.
Im an executive at a large behavioral healthcare company, and I can tell you the smart psychiatrists out there arent ignoring this information. We need clear trials with outcomes to provide the treatment with these drugs, but all that is in process. Very exciting to see this work coming to fruition
I work with a treatment team that offers this and the results have been so compelling ❤
Where is that treatment place Jessica ?
Set and setting is crucial!
I've found listening to enlightening discussions more impactful when on psilocybin.
The pioneers are the shamans that have been facilitating these treatments for hundreds of years! This realm will be just fine with you or without you guys.
@Glowi Main buy ?? Buy plants and medicine that everyone can grow ??
Indigenous People always have known the Truth, and the Truth of Nature. The West is far behind.. Which explains the disconnect and spiritual warfare in America. Your right.
psychedelics saved my life. i wish my grandpa who died of depression had access. thanks tim for being one of the first people to get me thinking about them. and thanks andrew for all your work and influential conversations. you both have helped me so much!
Psycedelics have helped me alot, I was already a pretty open minded person,but before doing psycedelics I didn’t believe in a higher power but they helped me breakthrough a lot and confirm a lot of things that I believed to be true,
So it made you believe in GOD?
Isn't it fantastic that instead of fear, now insight and knowledge actually determine the way we as humanity now look at these psychedelics and discover their meaningful uses! Great interview, holy smokes! I bet McKenna, Hofmann and Shulgin are smiling, watching all of this unfold, from the heavens🙏
VERY interesting potential, Some details will be great. What type and grade of trauma? How is a clinican guided session looks like, etc… We all wanna help ourselves and our communities…
It’s about time that people are allowed to try things to help their lives, when other things don’t help.😊
we always have.
Really excited to see where this goes!! I have severe anxiety and ocd and would love a cure.
5:49 first time I tripped at 15 years old, I watched Fantasia. Life altering! Joy, fear, tears, calmness, every feeling!
Love this

Psychedelics we're one of the major things that helped get off opiates...It made me fully aware of what I was doing and helped me change
Congrats ❤ happy for you! Keep it up
Ayahuasca and psilocybin saved my life. These conversations are so important to reach those who really need it
i had a different experience in highschool acid kind got me to get my act together to realize i can put forth thee effort and whent from failing two years to graduating 2 years years early and getting a job at a farm and ranch/hardware store to keep building my self
Nothing but good things to say about this clip…AND, the high emphasis on medicalization and use for psychiatric conditions is a bit narrow ❤
The critical scope of his profession is narrow. He's not sharing personal opinion. He's sharing professional opinion.
I was at the first VETS fundraiser in SD. I never bothered to come say hello as I respect people's privacy. I appreciate that both you and Andrew were present to show your support and I look forward to saying hello in the future. Your voices are so important to cracking apart the paradigm of negative info surrounding these plant medicines.
Thanks, Tim!! ❤🍄
Amazing episode! Amazing humans
Psychedelic's definitely have potential to deal with mental health symptoms like anxiety and depression, I would like to try them again but it's just so hard to source here
The psychedelic experience is temporary but many people have permanent results.
My first shrooms trip was really awesome, it felt like i was deep into the sea

Got psychs
Last year, I took shrooms at Las Vegas thinking it was going to hit like an edible or something. Shit was scary at first but amazing once you start getting deeper into your thoughts
@@Philip36075 Where to search?? Is it IG?
I had an experience with a high dose of Mushrooms (almost 4 grams).
It was not a pleasant trip (I "died" several times, among other strange experiences), but after I've ended up with a solid idea: suicide has no sense.
So, yes, psychedelics can be a strange but good way to deal with depression and related negative mind states.
Why did you come to the conclusion that suicide had no sense?
Dr. Please consider doing a teaching topic on Pysylocybin for Brain Cloudiness from long haul Covid. Tks
You gotta love huberman 🎉
Nothing better then an open mind
I've been very interested by the topic as a fan of the whole psychedelic-induced aesthetic of the 60s, but also because I know some people for whom this might be one of the possibilities of effective treatment. Unfortunately we're in Europe where research is also happening, but slower. How I wish we could have safe controlled access to these a bit faster, lives are literally depending on these possible new treatments. If there is any way to make a donation to those research I'd be glad to do (can't spend money on a monthly fee but one donation would be totally possible). All my admiration to the people doing the research and people spreading awareness about this !
I had great experiences with LSD. Still have great experiences with psilocybin once every couple of years
Microdoing has been helping me a lot with depression and anxiety, haven't tired the heroic dose. I have been microdoing for a few months, 1 day on, 1 day off, when I stop the depression comes back about 2 weeks later until I start again.
Depression haunted my life from a very young age, and I was put on a bunch of SSRIs as a child in attempt to deal with it. None worked.Psychedelic mushrooms was brought to my attention. It was the first thing that actually had real effects. They should only be used with great care and respect.
Been through this conversation before. But someday i wish to experience this when I'm not so terrified of it.
I actually just started the research process of microdosing and all that. Im to the point where I want shock treatment.
dr.perryshroom is your guy. Got all kinds of psychedelics stuff. Guided me through my first ever experience
I find it funny if there's any psychedelic therapy 0nline
Of course iG ,he is dr.perryshroom. There's a lot of potential in psychedelics
Thanks for this video! Love Andrew and it's so interesting to hear this. Would love to be able to do theraphy in Argentina with MDMA

Psychedelic helped me elevate my depression, anxiety and living in a constant state of fear. My first LSD trip brought back a lot of happiness and calmness and eliminated all the suicidal thoughts. Such a beautiful expression.

One thing I really hate to hear when it comes to science, is that even in the science community there are barriers created where it is hard to question certain subjects. Dr. Huberman even states here that if he were to talk about this 10 years ago, it may have trashed his career. Maybe sometimes those barriers can be good, but doesn’t that hinder the progress of science?
Science is as corrupt as politics et al
Yes it does! that's why there's a movement about this, science is not scientific.
Yes but we are in a very different time now and things are shifting fast
It's not a science community problem, it's a political problem
@@liteoner science community bears most of the responsibility. The incentives in the social system are not conducive to truth searching, scientists protect their carriers, are afraid for their jobs, what their colleagues will think of them, they need to suck up to the right people in the hierarchy, ist the right words to get the grant money etc.
I can't fathom why Psilocybin is illegal in places, the peace you can get from such a small does is immeasurable.
Yet people can walk into any store and buy a drink that will potentially make them violent with a high probability of hurting someone or worse and this is fine.
Believe it should be said: the REAL HEROES of this story are the Indigenous practitioners, shamans and medicine men/women that have not only had the courage to preserve the medicinal plant practices of their culture in the face of insurmountable challenge and existential threat from outsiders, but also the wisdom, grace and humility to pass the knowledge on to those same interlopers despite all the violence and hostility they have endured.
Much love and respect for the original stewards of plant medicines, as well as those who continue to bear the torch 💕
We have known that psilocybin used with the proper dosage and intention is a gift in a big way since Ram Dass and Timothy Leary. You have been limited by your institution in exploring it, at least mentioning publicly. The handcuff of institutions. Your influence keeps growing 👁️🙌 Ben would be proud.. This is a big one.👁️
Yeah, psilo and other psychs are readily accessible from this specialist I got hooked with he's super reliable and ship's discreetly 💯

Thats great, but what I would love to hear more about is the subjective change of daily moods of people who has tried microdosing, because thats what I would try as I do not want to experience a "trip" but just a small increase in my daily well being and mood.
I think the depression relieving properties of psychedelics are definitely a result of the trip itself and the introspection.
It isnt. I de-hydrated some golden teachers that I grew, I take 1 gram at the weekend in an effort to do really small doses. I've kept depression and anxiety at bay since I started and I've never taken anywhere near the amount to give me any form of trip.
The peace I feel in my body half an hour after that 1 gram is lifechanging.
@@steb1012 Sure, but with 1 gram you still feel different a bit. Also, you do that every weekend. 1 single trip on a high dose can relieve depression for months and years.
@@steb1012 small dosages might help treating symptoms, but a full trip is what some people need to really get their life together, to really see what's wrong and what's the solution as clear as day, once and for all.
@@ConnoisseurOfExistence Yeah totally, that 1 gram is certainly noticeable even without any form of trip. Its been about 4 weeks now and I'm gradually increasing doses every week so I can start to experience trips. I've heard of the long lasting benefits of a good dose, but while I'm new to it I'm gonna slowly get the grams up and learn what works for me.
@@steb1012 Good luck! I haven't tried shrooms, but I've experimented with different doses of lsd. Could feel it even with 10 ug, which is 1/10 of a dose. Been at work on 30 ug, it was super easy and enjoyable. More than that, I'd get paranoia that everyone thinks I'm behaving weird :D lol... On free days, I've had trips with up to 300 ug, I found it extremely therapeutic, introspective, profound, creative, transformative, and so on...
Music in the distance, slowly coming in, followed by an instrumental period, then a transition out. If only there was an electronic version of that, that thousands of people across the globe felt magically connected with each other while listening to it.
Beautiful.
jerry garcia and owsley stanley should be on that list... they tried to wake people up about psychedelics since the 60s
The day i tried magic psilocybin truffles i realised how profound and life changing these can be. This is from someome who was diagnosed with autism later in life. They are amazing tools to explore the mind. We know very little still about the human brain. I believe that if they were legal and studied we would understand the human brain more. If u like mdma then mda is even more fun!
Well those are neuro toxic .. you need some san pedro cactus 🌵
@@machinegunhippy have two on my windowcill ha!
FINALLY! WE ARE SO GLAD Dr. Huberman has kept an open mind, did his research into the modern research, and shared what he has learned! No mention of Dr. Paul Stamets? The Stamets Stack to treat neuropathy via neurogenesis.
Using now and finding out a lot about myself but also have a lot of questions.
@FlorenceUdo-si6iv I'd be grateful, just starting this journey and I'm looking deep within. Guidance is a good thing, and this can be a hard thing to get others to understand and can get complex quickly. Thank be safe.
The fact that these professors were fired, paired with the fact that psilocybin is this thousands year-old plant that people have been using for such a long time just begs soooo many questions. How can we have a conversation about mental health if we can't place all the facts about the timeline properly? All of this stuff has to be looked into and then we can really have genuine and fruitful dialogue about what mental health is.
For most of us who have “traveled” these paths there was NOT a SINGLE clinician or therapist anywhere near us at ALL in ANY WAY and we’ve known this for THOUSANDS of years. If you think we’re waiting on the “experts” for permission you’re delusional, utterly. “Turn on, tune in, drop out”-Dr. Timothy Francis Leary
Shout out to East Forest being up on this years ago 🤗😎
MDMA literally changed my life. I'm lucky to not have any psychological issues but after one session I was a different, and better person.
Whats so sad I am a combat vetran and struggle with quite a bit and I wish I had the ability to try some of these treatment modalities. Maybe one day 😔
You can still try them out

@1:00 can we address how this is an issue for not just psychedelics but with anything "edgy". Why should someone lose their career for having alternative opinions to the status quo? I think our institutions and society at large has failed if we can't explore uncharted waters. Sticking to that metaphor, had humanity never explored literal uncharted waters, we would never be the global and united (mostly) species that we are now. I find most people's capacity for seeing the big perspective is really really limited, and then those same people make laws which holds back the entire human race just because their thinking hasn't caught up yet. Not to sound overdramatic, but I can't think of a worse crime against humanity than that, and I would be willing to remove those people who stand in the way of progress by any means necessary. There, I said it.
Well said. The policy makers are usual scared people, with big egos, covering their own ass and therefore play safe. It is indeed immensely damaging.
How we can turn the tide.
Well, you didn't say it completely. Not until you check out Timothy Alberino's Birthright book, or talks, THEN you will have SAID IT, in its entirety.
There, I really SAID IT.
This is so incredibly interesting
