The conventional treatment methods for chronic pain aren't without drawbacks. In today's video, we explore the question, "Could psychedelics be used to treat or reverse chronic pain?" The science here (so far) may be relatively bleak.. but it is no less promising.

I've never made a yt comment before, but after seeing your videos and that you only have 6.72 k subscribers, I felt inclined. You put out great content and should keep up the good work. I really enjoy how you explain things using scientific studies and information. It takes courage and discipline to speak on things like psychedelics. It takes courage bc the misguided views, and it takes discipline bc it's such a delicate topic. You do a great job of presenting information rather than just making baseless claims and I like that you don't generalize your personal experiences, but instead you make an effort to explain what works for YOU. Logical explanations grounded in facts are key to helping change the public perception on psychedelics. My friends and I are starting a Students for Sensible Drugs Policies chapter at my University to try to help educate people on the reality of the situation, but it's going to be difficult considering social stigmas. You provide a great example of how this sort of information should be presented, so thank you.

I really appreciate your thoughtful, precise content. I have had treatment resistant depression/suicidal ideation since I was a teenager and ruptured 3 discs in my lower back in 2011. A few months ago a friend gave me some psilocybin mushrooms and I noticed a huge improvement in my mood and pain level. So this season, I went picking azurescens each weekend for the past couple of months. I took a dried ounce and made a batch of .14 gram microdoses, have been taking one 2-3 times a week in the evenings after work and the improvements in not only my pain and mood but in my mental functioning and reduced social anxiety have me very optimistic about this solution. I can't say how it will work long term yet but compared to all the various medications and counseling methods I've tried, the short term results have been miraculous.

@JulianneKeu 3 жыл бұрын

That’s amazing. I hear so many accounts like yours and it really gives me hope for what the science might uncover/validate. (Also.. part of me wants to go “who cares what it might do to you long-term if it’s helping you now!”) Psilocybin is non-toxic. I can’t see how they’d be detrimental long-term. I haven’t encountered a single person who is dependent on this medicine.

If you have chronic pain ppl assume you're a drug addict instantly and assume you abuse your meds and just want to get high, it's the opposite, you suffer every day and often can't do house hold duties like washing dishes and laundry, you suffer every second of every min of every hour, every day, every week, every month, year, and etc for decades. Drs often assume your a drug addict first and you're there to get more drugs. Urine tests are random and at their timing and you have to comply or be kicked from their care. I have a decent pain management dr thankfully, var shots into car body areas that help to a degree but I am always in pain no matter what. I'm watching this vid as part of finding out more.

@JulianneKeu 3 жыл бұрын

That’s so frustrating to hear... because pain can’t be objectively measured, some people might assume you’re just making it up. That’s a terrible thing to experience when you’re already going through pain. Glad you found my video. Out curiosity, did you find me via search?

I have lived with chronic pain for a long time. The opioid I am on do not help the pain very well. I would love to try the mushrooms but they are illegal where I live. My son has pain too and he decided to try growing our own. I am excited to try microdosing them . My only fear is I will test positive for something that is going to get me kicked out of my pain clinic. If the mushrooms help I won't need the pain clinic, but before I can try them I need to continue at the clinic till they kick in to help. Thank you for your video. It was very helpful. My son-in-law suffers from cluster headaches really bad with no relief from conventional medicine. I am excited to pass this information on to him!

I witnessed this my self. Psychedelics highlights the area where the pain really origin from. Sometimes it actually feels like pain can increase during the trip or use of magic mushrooms or lsd. I had problems with ringing in my ears after a lsd trip and cured it with a mushroom trip later on 👂 🎶 so it can go both ways, be aware of that.

Thank you for the info! I found this video because today I micro dosed 2.5g of psilocybin mushrooms. I did so because of the mental benefits, but what surprised me was I noticed the chronic pain I've been experiencing in my shoulders for almost a year now is much less noticeable. I had to "Google It" and see if I was "tripp'n" lol or if this is for real. This is very interesting and I will continue to micro dose. I believe that health begins with a healthy mindset. Health is a spiritual discipline and that challenge is to turn off our identity of pain, suffering, or whatever, and then create a new self from within. Easier said than done. Meditation has helped and I think the power of a substance, especially natural, like psilocybin to dim down our default mode network and let us re-experience life afresh. They help us remember what being at ease actually feels like and we learn from the lesson. It's amazing and I'm glad the culture is opening up to true science around this kind of stuff.

Thanks for the good information. From my own experience, pain and depression is a vicious cycle. One of the biggest problems I see with psychedelics is the extreme stigma that has been placed on them. I will completely honest, I have never done psychedelics, yet, but I am absorbing all the information I can. I also have never used cannabis either, can it be used for improving health issues? I am invested and follow the company Mindmed which is involved in using psychedelics in the treatment of mental health and health issues. I understand any information received from anyone is for my own research purposes only. Thanks

It certainly beats any prescription or OTC sleeping pill, that’s for sure. All of these holistic interventions ... are really just there to help us counterbalance our “unnatural” 21st century lifestyles .. don’t you think? So anything to help us feel more at home in our own mind, body, and spirit .. is a good thing, in my opinion
