From LSD to Ecstasy, How Psychedelics Are Altering Therapy, with Prof. Harriet de Wit (Ep. 51)
Excerp
The latest research shows that there may be more uses for drugs like MDMA and LSD than sending people on mind-altering trips. In fact, they could radically change how some people engage with therapy. De Wit also examines microdosing, why it is so popular, and whether it does what people suggest.

I just wrote a research paper on MDMA-assisted psychotherapy for PTSD treatment the other day. The research is sound but there are many out there they are blaming MAPS for misrepresenting the data and doing harm to future research. The Heffter Institute is doing interesting stuff with psilocybin for addiction therapy that I hope makes some progress.
