Building on this, if someone is scared of the 'psychedelic' part then there is also MDMA which too lifts 'filters' and makes the subject aware of those thoughts and emotions so they can be processed, but takes away the fear and anxiety.
MDMA is not classified as psychedelic and currently studied for treatment of PTSD (among other diagnoses).
Psychonauts found a way to combine those effects: candyflip (a combination of LSD and MDMA) or hippieflip (psilocybin and MDMA).
- deepnotderp 3y agoAlso 2C-B is a psychedelic with a entactogenic (think like mdma) effect. It’s much more manageable, calmer and reliably positive than psilocybin or LSD

- snapplebobapple 3y agoMdma utterly jacks my cardiovascular system. People with high blood pressure or other cardiovascular issues should be careful using that.
- tpm 3y agoYeah, people with high blood pressure or other cardiovascular issues should be careful using all psychotropic drugs, including psychedelics - some if which are 5HT(2B) receptor agonists, and those receptors are expressed on the heart valve. But MDMA has still more dangerous physical effects than LSD/psilocybin.
