      Absolutely but it wasn't only Nixon it was a long line of assholes, racists, puritans, conservatives, ... Medications are and always will be imperfect tools - just like everything we make - so to stop research into it because of recreative abuse and overblown stereotypes, grown largely out of fantasies and ignorance is frankly disgusting. We're stuck in the 60s in important sectors like pain management and mental disorders. Forced to panickly and franticly prescribing anti-epileptics to schizophrenics and muscle relaxers to pain patients. And yes those do work for some people. But it sucks and the drug-drug interactions can be dangerous. Those two things (pain and mental wellbeing) devour quality of life and do lead to people throwing themselves out of windows or worse.

      Nixon was way off base on many of his policies, but I think he genuinely meant well and was just a product of his era. If you watch some of the videos from his legacy channel, your opinion of him may change as mine did. I was very surprised to see a thoughtful and well-meaning man in his post presidential interviews. LBJ was the real bad guy, and Nixon inherited a terrible war.

      Mushrooms are very medicinal. This is why anybody familiar with psilocybin and any other kind of fungi will tell you, "They are alive." They have a very ancient wisdom. To my experience, all mushrooms have always said, "Pay attention to your life. How you think, how you feel, and what will you do with the information that you always knew, but now are seeing in this point of view." This is why mushrooms are so respected in tribal cultures. This mental health treatment works for me too. Half micro doses do the trick for me. At least a few days at a time with lengthy time in between. Never addictive. Thank you for sharing this point!

      From my experience it really works excellently! It doesnt even need to be a full hit. With potent shrooms 2-3 small ones will still make a clear difference. It will be a few hour cosy rumbling moment around rest time, but afterwards its just calm and you feel amazing and gain your freedom. Psilocybin is different dudes, its the only "treatment" I would recommend to someone who genuinely wants to get better. There is no addiction, withdrawal, or negative side effects. It's just pure healing., far more effective than any anti-depressant and any other thing. I went on a microdose treatment for a couple of months and within the first week, every sight of a cigarette got me questioning why I was doing all that to myself. It really works. you can thank me later.

    It’s also fair to ask why so many substances that were available extra-legally and “aftermarket” historically now require private sector investors to spend $100 million on studies to justify monetizing a pharmaceutical patent for $50 billion? (A 50,000% return on investment). They could regulate quality control from a consumer-protection standpoint like supplements. I know the answer is to implement stopgaps to reduce the risk of Substance Use Disorder, but that’s A LOT of oligopoly to achieve that outcome- and the majority of that wealth is not going to frontline scientists and doctors.

      Supplements are actually not regulated and not required to have quality control unless the company that makes them decides to do this. When tested, many supplements were found to not contain what they claim to contain or have wildly varying levels of the ingredient used. Though I do hope that with all this research into psychedelics, governments finally also legalize the use of these substances in their "natural" form.

      That is the problem with these amazing plant medicines. We've been force fed absolute bollox from the government for decades about the harm potential of these molecules so they are frowned upon by the general public.
      This can also lead to people being in the totally wrong mindset if they are curious enough to experiment with psychedelics. A mindset of anxiety or fear when administering any plant medicines can lead to terrifying experiences.
      This is a huge step forward for humanity. Some people are able to achieve meditative states without the assistance of any medication, which is great for them, but due to the hectic and overwhelming environments a lot of people lead their lives in it isn't so easy.

    I've had problems with depression and anxiety most of my life, since I was young. In the 90s, my early 20s, I tried acid 2 or 3 times, and I want to share that looking back it's the one thing I'm glad I tried, it was definitely good for me. Ecstasy might have been good too, I tried that next but it became a habit and I think I did way too much of it, and that was definitely not good. Alcohol, I wish I had never tried. Anyway, I look forward to seeing it properly produced and used experimentally, finally. This is great news.

    Thank you Dr. Marks for all the info! This new development ought to help a lot of people who are currently suffering, because trends show that depression/anxiety are on the rise. Psychedelics have radically altered my life for the better, with LSD basically "curing" my alcoholism and decade-long depression. Psilocybin, the small few times I tried, helped me achieve significant, deep philosophical insight into the nature of existence, spirituality, and love that I'm eternally grateful for. But it would be irresponsible to tout the benefits without cautioning people to be safe and do ample amounts of research before trying such powerful substances. If strong positive effects can happen, then strong negative ones can too even if they may not have an equal likelihood. Plus overall, the neurochemical benefits of psychedelics can be achieved through meditation and the other things mentioned, which I do nowadays to maintain peace of mind soberly. Whatever anyone does, hope they are doing so in a safe, healthy way 💜

    As a Psychedelic nerd and advocate, I have issues with this. MM-120 and LSD 25 are wild, crazy, not for everyone. You can fudge studies to say whatever you want to get your patented drug approved. They should use better/milder lysergamides like Al-Lad or Mipla for this sort of treatment, things that don't send you into a state of mind that can easily teeter into psychosis. Things that don't induce heavy anxiety. This study about MM-120 is kind of BS. If LSD cured anxiety, I would've been anxiety-free 20 years ago, but now, finally I'm finding some things that actually work. And it was Mescaline that really showed me how to face my anxiety and stay busy and focused through each moment. The fact is, these companies are pushing LSD cuz there is room to patent. Let's focus on the safe stuff first, mushrooms, cactus, mdma, etc.

    Hi Dr. Marks, I really enjoy your videos. As a woman, I feel ignored and dismissed by the medical community, for both physical and mental symptoms. The distrust I have for most doctors has only gotten worse since I became "sick" with ME/CFS and have gained a lot of weight. Have you done/ will you do an episode on Gender Bias in mental health treatment- specifically concerning the use of psychedelic/ "street drugs?" I've been suffering from depression for decades and I desperately want to try something New. I have literally a bucket of psych meds that I tried, some worked a little or never worked, and then quit after 6 months+ because they weren't helping. Do you have the data that shows how many women vs men are approved for these treatments? I wasn't allowed to have my tubes-tied until I had a kid, which inevitably happened but was not in my plan. I feel like the medical community doesn't treat me like a person. How can women advocate getting new psych treatments?

    Even as a kid i always saw myself as a combat organism what with being male, but i never really stopped to realize that that was a warped self identity due to all the violence i faced growing up
    I have been struggling due to the very emotional opinions conventionally brained people have towards BPD people, they all think we are monsters, but in truth i cant help entering a state of secondary psychosis, and it leaves me not knowing weather to blame myself or those around me...
    I hate feeling like a human landmine, but your videos have been enlightening me of many coping mechanisms which i will be sure to make use of in the future.
    Thanks for all you do!

    The strongest medication I took was for schizophrenia when I had a massive panic attack. Took it for a few days and it helped me calm down to regular anxiety. Now I take a different anxiety medication.

    Thank you for this very good and very informative video. I hope the psychedelic treatments will be available very soon. But one thing is FDA apporoved in America, and available there. I live in Norway, and we might not get it approved or available here as soon as in America. But in the meantime, I will do excercise, meditation, omega 3 and so on as you suggest + metacognitive therapy. I strongly belive in metacognitive therapy, but have yet to try it myself.
    Thumbs up for a great video, and thumbs up for psychedelics as a treatment option!

    I don’t know. I had some pretty bad trips on acid as a depressed teenager and one from of mine from high school ended up in a live in mental health facility from taking LSD.

      It's funny how these cases are completely omitted in these kind of campaigns, or they minimise the harm with statements like "you took too much" or "maybe this drug isn't for you"

    I really look forward to one day trying these therapies, once they're widely utilised and once they're actually affordable.

    Microdosing occasionally allowed me to decide to just have one good day every so often. And I really needed that. A day when I felt connected to nature and my pets and just more grounded. Until I could get the right therapy and time to work through my life.

    you know, when i 1st looked @ your 'comments' before i watched this vid, it seemed like everyone had drank the cool aid in signing off--but, actually, after watching the vid i sign off. i've had GAD throughout the decades w/not much co-morbidity & the THOUGHT of something i take once & it works for 12 wks--rewiring my brain & making me 'clearer'--sounds . . . WONDERFUL!! 'gad' is like some thing @ this point i don't even notice & am so used to, i've never even thought about what life would be like w/out it.
