Australia has become the first country to allow the prescription of psychedelics to treat some mental health conditions. This is so exciting - any new treatment could mean freeing people from terrible, expensive conditions that severely limit their lives.

This looks interesting!
I’m a firm advocate for the acceptance that ‘love’ is a (sometimes pleasant) physiological state and should be treated like one.
The blurb has me a bit annoyed tho … “MDMA, the active ingredient in Ecstasy …” Ecstasy doesn’t have “ingredients”. Neither does, e.g., "Unicorn Vomit". It's not a thing. It's slang for a range of street drugs, not the name of a compound.

The #history of psychedelics includes centuries of spiritual use, and as a mental health tool, prior to criminalization. From communing with the spirit in various religious paths, to the creation of #MDMA and #Ketamine for use in psychotherapy, it is not unrealistic for conscientious people to at least consider #psychedelics a path toward mental wellness.
After decades of prohibition, the science of #PsychedelicPsychotherapy is just resurfacing. It has a way to go, but has already helped many.

New experimental drug can potentially be an antidote for #fentanyl and #methamphetamine overdoses; maybe even other street drugs like PCP, #cocaine, and #MDMA. Game changer, if it pans out.
