Hi, Hugh.


This is really exciting stuff.

Overall, what do you think is going with psilocycbin that it should be therapeutic for such a wide range of mental health issues? Ibogaine has been around for quite awhile, and there were many claims about its effects on a variety of psychobiological ailments. Wasn't it available in Canada?

Hi Scott,

Psychedelics give neuroplasticity a big boost, making it much easier for people to break their bad habits of thinking. As you know, during a bout of suicidal depression that I'd been trapped in for weeks, magic mushrooms ended my suicidal ideation within hours, and it would be years before I would become deeply depressed again. It was the most profound reaction I've ever had to a drug.

I haven't tried Ibogaine. It's available in British Columbia.

You're welcome, Scott. It is an amazing story.

I'm rereading Michael Pollan's How to Change Your Mind. He mentions a CBS News documentary from 1966 called LSD: The Spring Grove Experiment. I just watched it here:
