Psychedelics Are Now Legal in Australia-With a Catch

Australia is a nation known for its conservative attitude towards drugs. So the approval of psychedelics for use in psychotherapy in 2023 came as a shock. Maybe more shocking was who got it done - an opera singer and her former investment banker husband, who kicked up no shortage of controversy along the way.

@shanessinging Ай бұрын

There is a serious problem with this media outlook and info being put out by this video and also misleading title. MDMA keeps being repeated in tandem with the research and use of Psilocybin which is incorrect. theyre 2 completely different drugs and also used for 2 completely different mental health related things so shouldnt they be reported as such, individually? and not combined into 1 video? People are gunna get confused. For example: mentioning people dying off of the use of MDMA in festivals and then talking about psilocybin research at 4:00 this is improper reporting and shows lack of knowledge; in context with this comment: there has not been a single known reported death from psilocybin mushroom use. There is no clear differentiation between the 2 by the journalist which is my issue.

Shrooms changed my life for the better. I was just recreationally trying to "trip" in the forest with some friends. I had no idea what would happen. It was/is the best experience of my life, full stop! I did em when i was 18 or 19 yrs old and till this day the wisdom, compassion, love, insight, presence, and patience I came to know then still guides me in my thoughts and actions with myself and with others. From what i understand it wasn't as grand and sweeping for my friends. But i think there's something to be said about the fact that forests/woods nature has always been my happy place. And unlike my friends, I came to the experience with no forced expectations just a curious and open mind.

Of course, when people take it in unsupervised situations, not knowing what they're doing and not being mindful, these things can be dangerous or even lethal.. People should drink plenty when they use xtc/mdma, no other drugs, and there should be an experienced (and ideally sober) friend present to keep an eye out. Many people know this, but not everyone. Including apparently that guy. We don't know how it works? We don't know how alcohol and caffeine work either, not _really_ . We should be mindful and careful about this, the medicine is powerful.

Do you really think psychiatrists and by extension the state should have these available as a weapon ?

If something is heavily regulated and obscenely expensive then it is not 'legal'. It might be an adjustment of pre-existing legislation but it's still legislation. It's still the government deciding the degree to which an individual may have access to, a relationship with and experience of the natural world. It is still a group of people deciding under what circumstances an individual may have this experience, and surprise, surprise! - it's within a clinical setting, with someone who doesn't really care about them, with large sums of money involved! Well, what better way to achieve an understanding of one's own integral part in the tapestry of the universe that facilitates the healing of psychological trauma than within the confines of a heavily regulated capitalist infrastructure?

Bruh, vaccines led to mass immunity and that's what led to the fading away of Covid. Otherwise, it would have killed a few 100s of millions more before it faded away. I'm not sure if the lockdowns helped, but the vaccines saved a few hundred million.

Legal psychedelics in some cities, even in the US, like Denver. But Australia is the first Country (not city) to do it. Governments want money, and there is tax revenue in legalizing drugs. Doctors will become profiteers, prescribing to anyone that pays them - it happens in the US now.

These politicians and whoever else are finally catching up to what many people have known for decades. Psych mushroom/MDMA are powerful healers. Very low risk in comparison to alcohol and other substances. You don't even need to go on them as a regular drug. You just eat a bunch of mushrooms, bond with the universe, have a cry, and come out with a wider acceptance for your situation, what you've been through, etc.

@elijones2321 Ай бұрын

They didn’t need to, have you seen the Japanese public? They were wearing masks when they had a cold decades and decades before Covid was ever a thing. They didn’t have a mandate or lock down because their population actually listened and stayed home and everyone got the vaccine of their own accord. Like they have one of the highest rates of Covid vaccination in a country that historically was on the fence about vaccines. You absolutely have no idea what you’re talking about. Japanese culture is very very different from the West.

I have been practising psychedelic therapy for years. One session is not enough. Without discipline and integration work it is futile. The pain that aggression of hyper masculine culture has created is not easily healed. Mother Nature is hurting and the whole society is constantly being retraumatised by ruling overlords. If ever psychedelics make us more awake and even more depressed, because we can see how broken the system is. It’s a never ending process of healing.

Shrooms are a powerful psychedelic with a long history of recreational, medicinal, and spiritual use worldwide. Still, psychedelics can be unpredictable, and experts advise anyone interested in using them to start with a low dose and seek counseling from a medical professional.

I don't think it's high as 1 in 20 unless you count minor and short lasting cases. But I do think it's bad for some people, particularly people with hereditary mental problems related to hallucinations. For example if you have schizophrenia this will probably make it worse. No drug is for everyone, as some type of person will often get a bad effect from it. Most western medications are like this too.
