We also discuss the profound impact of high doses in alleviating conditions like depression, anxiety, and PTSD, emphasizing the importance of setting and intention for effective therapy. With promising findings from clinical trials on substances like MDMA, we highlight how these therapies offer hope to veterans and others suffering from long-term PTSD. Finally, we explore the shifting legal landscape, focusing on places like Oregon and Colorado, where plant medicines have been legalized.
