We dive into Dr. Ben’s personal journey with psychedelics, including his transformative experiences with LSD and ayahuasca, and how they shaped his path as a psychiatric pharmacist.  The conversation covers the therapeutic potential of psychedelics like psilocybin for a dysregulated nervous system, the complexities of using MDMA while breastfeeding, and the integration of psychedelics with traditional recovery approaches. We also discuss the importance of set and setting, the natural vs. synthetic debate, and Dr. Ben’s upcoming Clinical Pharmacology of Psychedelics course series.
