The Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies (MAPS) has recently completed a study on LSD being used medically to treat end-of-life related anxiety. The study was a success in that all participants reported positive effects, and in that there were no severe negative side-effects – showing that such treatments can be safe in a properly controlled therapeutic environment. Hopefully this study paves the way for a further interest in the therapeutic use of psychedelics.
Thanks for the article, it was rlaely interesting. I think it is difficult to know how LCD affects each individual’s preception of reality and/or their spirtuality, but I do believe that it gives everyone a different perspective of the world and therefore can teach us something about our own existence, if we are willing to listen.
