Psychedelics and PTSD
Rick started down a long path to become a psychedelic assisted psychotherapist but he realized his dream couldn't come true if these drugs were illegal. He founded a group to help legalize psychedelics for medicinal use. It all started with one particular drug MDMA and Rick's friend named Marcella. She suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder from a violent sexual assault. Now 35 years later after Marcella's treatment she's actually a therapist training other therapists to help people overcome PTSD with MDMA.
