Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy to treat treatment resistant depression

[jdguerra203]

I want to hear everyone's opinion about Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy and if you think it is effective and safe or not when compared to traditional antidepressants.
1. The administration process
2. Side effects and safety
3. Long term results
Do you agree that this form of treatment is safer and more effective than taking antidepressant pills?

I watched a video about this earlier. The psychiatrist in the video mentioned psylocibin as holding the most promise. Isn't it just at the clinical trial stage?

I saw this article on Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy. It's a very long article, so I didn't read it to find the important information in it. I suffer from treatment-resistant depression, so I'm interested in knowing what the article has to say about it. As I mentioned, it's a very long article, but I did see discussion of the pros and cons of this therapy, so it might be an un-biased review of this therapy.
