  1. This is a good move. But please don't try creating synthetic drugs of natural occuring substances.
    It's not logical. Science is an amalgamation of all virtues/levels of being. But slowly but surely, due to slicing of the study of science itself into various disciplines, and not understanding the interconnected nature of life, science is just another buzz word, and not real science.

  2. Great insightful words about the way psychedelics can help treat human broken minds or traumatic experiences. It's a shame the video hasn't reached an wider audience.

  3. There’s a lot of potential in psychedelics, I can’t wait to try any of them mushrooms specifically but it’s just so hard to find a reliable source over here, I’ll be glad if anyone can be of help..

  4. The root of the problem is not in individuals. It’s in our culture and our society. Blaming the individual during a mental health crisis is bananas.

  5. I saw also much misogamy growing up more so than of late… well I know too many guys that are so off, but they have been programmed! IU really wish we all could use this to get beyond! TOTALLY I LOVE THAT!

  6. I have opiate addiction and it sux . I have been on suboxone and wish I could use micro dosing to wean off somehow.. break the patterns THANKS!! you guys are on the WAVE!! I LOVE YOU !! THANKS I am praying this will blow up and I saw AOC is also fi9ghting for it

  7. The use of psychedelic products as regards to treating depressive disorders and other mental health issues is unmatched…
    You can reach out to the store on my YouTube handle to get psychedelics.

  8. Making everything about racism/sexism/homophobia/whatever does nothing but propogate these things. This is a mental health problem, not a "ism" problem. Let it go, its 2022.

  9. It is absolutely beautiful how people talk so many things about psychedelic and magic mushrooms too.. Everyone focused on how magic mushrooms can change and also save  lives.. I haven't try it but I deep down I really what to try it.. just looking for a reliable source..

  10. Mushrooms have helped me beat my addiction with heroin, my ptsd, anxiety and depression have never been better! I’m so happy that this is finally becoming a thing and becoming less taboo.

  11. People that are fed up with the pharmaceutical industry and it's long list of crimes and lies are turning to entheogens to help heal themselves of their afflictions.

  12. You guys and gals on the west coast are so lucky to have psychedelic therapy. I'm stuck in the midwest and a conservative area. We did manage to get medical and recently recreational cannabis so maybe there's hope for entheogen therapy. 🙏

  13. I have been depressed for a long time, but after taking mushrooms few months ago, l feel much happier and highly motivated and my ADHD gone , lost a ton of anxiousness and had a few epiphanies about how I should live my life. I decided to buy an ounce for backup, but haven’t yet felt the need to take any more since then.
