The future of psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy | Rick Doblin
Could psychedelics help us heal from trauma and mental illnesses? Researcher Rick Doblin has spent the past three decades investigating this question, and the results are promising. In this fascinating dive into the science of psychedelics, he explains how drugs like LSD, psilocybin and MDMA affect your brain -- and shows how, when paired with psychotherapy, they could change the way we treat PTSD, depression, substance abuse and more.

Mushrooms helped me
Rick Doblin, thank you ❤
Google psychedlic assisted psychotherapy and the first result is for 988, the suicide hotline in America.
That's wack…
Hope it’s really that good and help people. Too many people are suffering these days, mentally
What a LEGEND ! True Hero. Thank you Mr. Doblin
I’m a psych major about to graduate with my associates and after I receive my bachelors I’m getting my certificate as a clinician to administer MDMA and marijuana to help patients suffering from PTSD
I have to say that psilocybin and LSD are completely unique substances. I, as a clinical psychologist, never interested in Yoga in my life until the event I took huge dose of psilocybin. During the trip I somehow "remembered" how to perform Yoga. The first time in my life I performed Yoga for over an hour in a park while under the effect of psilocybin. This miracle happened 5 months ago but also I had so hard time comprehending what's going on really. After a long consideration I started to upload on Youtube (I am still very amateur but whenever I take psychedelics I am able to remember more and more from my past life. )
Too dramatic! Can't take it seriously

MAPS, ZENDO, BURN MAN ARE SATANIC CULTS AND DRUG DEALERS AND THIS IS BAD FOR HUMANITY.

Legalize psychedelics completely, not just for medical use in clinical settings. Legalizing them for medical use only is a bad idea. Clinical settings aren't the best place to trip.

My first experience with shrooms cleared my mind and I started seeing the world on a whole new level
Rick, if you’re reading this I just want to say that you are awesome! I almost cried when you spoke of the great success that you had with Tony! I can’t even imagine the number of people that will ultimately find significant benefit from your achievements!!!
the face of a real saint
I have been micro dosing on the batch of mushrooms I got from one guy online for the last few months for depression and anxiety and the results has been immeasurable. The world has beauty again whereas before it was grey and painful.
Sometimes it can be a curse to have to much awareness.
At 14:25, everyone in the audience is like, OMG did Rick give everyone an eighth of shrooms?
