Nature put the trip in on purpose. Aren't we now trying to 'save nature'?

Boringgggggg

The trip is the best part.

All drugs give you a trip even Pharmaceuticals if they're taking a drugs

What’s the use of you get there without the trip?

If it fix gender dysphoria I'm all for it!

nahhhh.. natural is the way, fuck pharma

yes make addictive psychoactive drugs without the fun part.... lame

there you go big pharma…make drugs that heal instead of kill.

I don’t trust them - they’ll find some way to get people addicted and reliant on their drugs

Ridiculous

Lame

Of course there will be side effects with the pharmaceutical version.

.. but what if the euphoria/psychedelic effect, combined with set/setting and proper “container” is what gives psychedelics their therapeutic efficacy 🤔?

I'd be Leary of these. 🤣

Will not work as well - if at all.

Great plan - take the legalized drugs and become psychotic so the drug companies can sell you anti-psychotics.

Big pharma trying to patent micro-dosing Fk big pharma

_yesbut_ 🙌🏼

Fuck treat - i choose a trip!

The research suggests that having a spiritual experience, aka “a trip” is responsible for positive outcomes. Big Pharma will not be able to replicate mother nature’s remedy.

This will be a great way to see if people who advocate for shrooms and the like really just want to get high or actually want to help people.

The trip IS the treatment... It shows you where you're going wrong in life

Just a way of big pharma to cash in. No way to replicate the experience that is part of the therapy without the “high” but need to make money off this so this

Yeah...why would we want to take the real thing, and get the full effect, when we can take a synthetic version that the drug companies can make billions off of?

Way to take the fun out of it

Coming soon: non-alcoholic beer

where's the fun in that

These will almost certainly fail compared to taking actual psychedelics. The “high” is the entire point. It rewires your perception of reality so deeply that people are able to break out of short circuiting mental loops and rutts and engage with the world from a new mindset.
