The Therapeutic Paradox of Psychedelics
This chapter explores the potential therapeutic benefits of psychedelics for mental health conditions like depression and PTSD, alongside the subjective nature of their effects. It critiques the pursuit of 'non psychedelic psychedelics' that aim to separate therapeutic efficacy from the subjective experience, questioning the motivations behind this desire. The discussion emphasizes the complexities of psychedelic research within the conventional medical framework and the importance of measuring expectancy in therapeutic outcomes.
