The theory at the heart of the research is that compounds such as MDMA, also known as Ecstasy, and psilocybin mushrooms, when taken in a safe setting under the guidance of skilled therapists, can yield powerful insights and disrupt harmful patterns of thought and behavior.

In the 1950s and 1960s, many scientists regarded psychedelics as a potentially revolutionary tool in the treatment of addiction and other psychiatric conditions. In one notable clinical study in 1963, patients at a Veterans Affairs clinic in Kansas took LSD to treat alcoholism.

Anyone here, ever did an acid, mescaline/peyote or mushrooms? I worked with a Navajo woman once and she told me they use peyote for their religious ceremonies?!! I hope the psychedelics helps the Vets too?!!
