| Sheesh. Call in Dr Carlos Castaneda, stat! I, um, happen to know that a healthy dose of psilocybin relieves one of almost any symptoms, except mebbe the Galluping Giggles. You're just so there, man, y'know? The whole thing, man, is there... and it's all, like, all connected, y'know? And it's purdy cool, man. It's like, groovy, man. |
Dr. Francisco A. Moreno led the first FDA-approved clinical study of psilocybin since it was outlawed in 1970. The results of the small-scale study are published in the latest edition of the Journal of Clinical Psychiatry.
Moreno said the study's intent was only to test the safety of administering psilocybin to patients, and its effectiveness is still in doubt until a larger controlled study can be conducted. But in each of the nine patients in the study, psilocybin completely removed symptoms of the disorder for a period of about four to 24 hours, with some remaining symptom-free for days, Moreno said.
