The most important thing to remember, I think, is that when you're talking about a drug like LSD, you have to rely on self-reports.
Imagine finding a way to manage unbearable mood swings with something as unconventional as LSD microdosing. In this intriguing episode of 'Weekly Infusion,' Dr. Drew and Dr. Bruce sit down with author Ayelet Waldman to discuss her month-long experiment with this controversial technique.
Waldman, known for her candid writing, shares how taking sub-clinical doses of LSD brought significant improvements to her mood, marriage, and overall life, a journey she details in her book, 'A Really Good Day: How Microdosing Made a Mega Difference in My Mood, My Marriage and My Life.'
But the conversation doesn't stop there. Psychiatrist Dr. John Sharp joins in to weigh the potential benefits of ketamine therapy for depression and PTSD, adding another layer of depth to the discussion.
The episode also touches on broader topics like the war on drugs, the dangers of fentanyl and heroin, and the mental health struggles often faced by former meth users. This episode is a must-listen for anyone curious about alternative treatments for mental health. It's not just about the science; it's about real stories and real people finding hope in unexpected places. Whether you're skeptical or hopeful about psychedelic therapies, this conversation offers a fresh perspective that's both engaging and thought-provoking.
