Scientists Suggest Fresh Look at Psychedelic Drugs

[Jan Klimkowski]

Jeezus,here we go again!Let me repeat,"the last place I would want to trip would be with a Psychoanalyst".A sure fire way to a bad trip

This shows you have absolutely no clue about what these people are doing. They are not trying to perform "psychoanalysis" with their patients during the trip. They actually know about the power of psychedelics, and they understand that this can have value for many different kinds of people, but if you have some kind of psychological problem, it is usually necessary to have some kind of support when you go through what needs to be gone through in order to see your way out of it.

And there is no such thing as a "bad trip". Difficult experiences always has a great potential for learning, or even ecstatic potential, which I wouldn't exactly call bad. But of course, you're free to dismiss this potential as "bad" if you want.

Thomas - I'm afraid that I disagree with every word of your post.

Of course there is such a thing as a "bad trip".

As soon as psychedelics were taken out of shamanic set and setting and provided to CIA laboratories run by sociopaths such as Ewen Cameron and Louis Jolyon West, and to CIA sub-contractors, such as Manson and Leary, the "bad trip" became the near ubiquitous experience.

I would refuse to take LSD or any psychedelic as part of a shrink-run "experiment".

Of course, if the shrink was deep black and intel-funded, they'd likely administer the drug anyway.
