@Serotoninluv Where else do psychedelics belong other than in spirituality.

I don’t consider psychedelics to “belong” to anything. Intentions for psychedelics include: recreational, therapeutic and spiritual. No intention is more valid than another intention  and one can transcend all intentions.

@Serotoninluv Of course we are talking about in personal development. I doubt anybody would use 5-MeO recreationally. As for therapeutic uses, there are far better techniques for that. Why waste psychedelics on something you can easily do drug-free.


"Not believing your own thoughts, you’re free from the primal desire: the thought that reality should be different than it is. You realise the wordless, the unthinkable. You understand that any mystery is only what you yourself have created. In fact, there’s no mystery. Everything is as clear as day. It’s simple, because there really isn’t anything. There’s only the story appearing now. And not even that.” — Byron Katie

@Serotoninluv I love this attitude, couldn't agree more. So many people think their particular way of using (or not using) psychedelics is the only right way.

For some, a mild dose of 5-meo is very pleasing. Some use it recreationally. 

Therapeutic *is* personal development. The intention is to create a healthier *person*. Spirituality goes far deeper than the person. The person is within something deeper.

Regarding psychedelic therapy, various studies consistently show staistically-significant benefits. In the U..S., were are now at phase III clinical trials for MDMA therapy for PTSD. 

The stage II trials involved severe PTSD patients in which no other form of treatment worked. After a few MDMA sessions, 2/3rds of patients no longer qualified as having PTSD based on DSM criteria. Three-year follow-ups showed the effect is long term. They were cured of PTSD similiar to how one is cured of cancer.
