Ibogaine FDA approval today in the USA

This isn't really all that great of news.
It just puts the drugs into Big Pharma's hands. And the government will "control" it. Probably cost a fortune to try it.

And it's BULLSHIT. These claims that psychedelics can "cure depression", "cure anxiety", "cure addiction", is just flat out deceptive marketing.
No amount of psychedelics or dissociatives even have ever made me stop wanting opioids or feeling depressed.

Do I think psychedelics should remain illegal? No of course not. But I also think it's bullshit that the government gets to "control" everything that helps people. Not to mention all the people with depression or addiction who might try it, only to find out their problems will be back not long after they're done tripping.

I know some one who's gone to Peru dozens & dozens of times for their Aya ceremonies & they still struggle with the same issues that they went there to "cure".

I think fanatics of psychedelics (like Rogan) are pushing this "cure for depression/anxiety/addiction" angle in order to get their favorite class of drugs more legally recognized. But they're also gonna throw the rest of us drug users under the bus by being all like "it's safer/better than taking opioids!".

I don't trust psychedelic proponents because they often slam the rest of us drug users in favor of getting their favorite drugs legalized.

I've been on 50 LSD trips probably in just the past 4 years & I'm still an opioid junkie like I've always been.
 
I would describe myself as a venture capitalist. I'm trying to help the poor class, or at least look out for them.
Drugs is cheap. that's why the poors do them. And having access to stuff that might help instead of masking the underlying traumas many of us face.
The richards that I don't care for simply use money as a drug and think drugs should be illegal.
Ibogaine would be a harsh first step into psychedelic therapy. Having access to cheap weed that is gas is good start. But in PA we don't have legal weed only a shitty highly marked up medical program. That doesn't help the poors because most can't afford the medicine. For opioid addiction ibogaine is promising. Just wish that MDMA, LSD, and Psilocybin were of high quality and OTC. It's a pipe dream I'd like to see happen in my lifetime.

The very vanguard of scientific and medical community experts in America’s most highly regarded states for drug treatment are chomping at the bit to begin the best president in histories historic executive order commanding that someone do something with ibogaine.

Should they not?
 
Hey I just deleted a lot of off topic posts. Let’s keep this thread on topic and try our best to be decent to each other.
