Will never understand why the amount of psychedelics taken can be used as credential when discussing philosophical issues.

OK, I have come around on this, instead of Psychedelic-assisted therapy, how about how about Therapy-assisted psychedelic? Gives more emphasis to the drug component of the treatment.

@psybalazs Are You comfortable with “psychedelic assisted therapy” nomenclature? Some question the primacy it puts on “therapy”. Can we say yet which component is most influential?.

Interested in DMT science you haven't heard about before? . Reminder that @alieninsect Andrew Gallimore (the DMT researcher) will be at a meeting that's only for $PSY holders. Friday, June 6, at 7 AM Los Angeles / 2 PM London / 11 PM Japan. $PSY holders will, soon, be voting on.

We are now testing #psychedelics therapy for SSRI-resistant depression (i.e. patients who did not respond to #SSRIs before). But nobody is planning to run a trial on SSRIs for psychedelic-resistant depression (i.e. patients who did not respond to psychedelic-therapy before).

I dislike the phrase "treatment-resistant depression" (TRD) as it does not define what treatment was resisted. Was it some SSRI? Psychedelic- assisted therapy (=PAT)? rTMS? . We should be more specific and say SSRI / PAT / rTMS (etc.) resistant depression.
