Psychedelic therapy. Ketamine, psylocibin, LSD and MDMA treatment for PTSD, depression, anxiety, addiction, OCD etc. Lowan H Stewart. Episode 72

Lowan H. Stewart shares his research results and personal professional experience with therapeutic use of psychedelics (ketamine, psylocibin, LSD, MDMA) in treating depression, PTSD, anxiety, addiction, pain, OCD etc. 

 

His research is financed by the Norwegian state. This isn't a hippie thing anymore. It is hard core facts and research done at Harvard and Yale. 

 

He was demotivated working with the symptoms of his patients and started seeking ways to deal with the root cause of peoples mental health conditions. 

Depression in the leading cause of disability in the world. 1 million kill themselves every year. And that is just the people going through with it and succeeding. 

That is more than the amount of people dying from war and natural disasters combined. 

10 times more (10.millon) tried to kill themselves. 

10 times more (100.millon) want to kill themselves, bit didn't try.

That's just depression.

 

Lowan want to prevent these numbers. Deal with the burden and river of suffering which just keep on pouring, because we treat it with a bucket instead of fixing the leakage, the cause of the running water. The leakage of the sinking boat.

 

What does the research of Harvard and Yale say about the use of psychedelics in therapy? 

 

More effective than electro shots.

Long lasting effects.

Immediate effects.

Less side-effects.

None addictive.

No need for continues medication.

 

How this treatment helps your body heal itself, at the core. The body is doing the work, the medicine (psychedelics) are just there to help you find the answers you need.
