An amazing medicine , with life changing effects .
Trump is stupid and totally ignorant of health issues .
No thanks! I'll stick to real medications.
"Scary for us in the _ community" is a sentiment driving a lot of regulations. Need a better balance of worldviews among the gatekeepers.
Coming to your local dealers 2026
How is Trump making millions this time?
Wouldn't trust anything he puts his vile name to
After Covid I wouldn’t trust any new meds .Do your research for yourself first.
Is it just swapping one addiction for another. And what are the long term side effects mentally and physically.
One of the only positive things Trump has done in office
My friend in the UK mentioned the name Ibogaine to me must be about 10 years ago. It's been around a long time.
Just do shrooms it’s cheeper
For people who are already suffering and dying slowly, why not, if it helps them? “
People drink alcohol which is extremely damaging to the body and society. Rather than exercising and eating well, people take Mounjaro and Wegovy for weight loss which seems to cause hair loss as a side effects. We should continue testing this drug which treats mental illnesses and depression, but be open minded as it seems less harmful than the drugs I previously mentioned with very good benefits.
I mean, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is Secretary of Health, and Trump thinks we can inject bleach, and they think paracetamol causes autism, so this isn't that surprising.
Don't do it ! Will make mental disorders worse.
How much was the Deluded Lady paid to wake talking twaddle about seeing Ghosts from her Past? If Trump is making Money every Fool is useful.
