so 84% had a positive response?

  84% positive and 16% worsened mental health is not the same thing as 84% and the rest neutral or mild side effects.

  No.. 16% had a negative response, 28% had ~no response, and 55% had a positive response. I think people would be much more hesitant to try psychedelics for their mental issues if you told them it was a coin toss whether it would help or not -- and was an unlucky game of Russian Roulette from making their mental problems worse.

    People take prescribed drugs for less than a 25% chance that it helps and a Russian roulette of side effects. Does sexual dysfunction improve depression?

      I, for one, would like the same standard applied to psychedelics, instead of worrying about whether bad results lead to its continued prohibition It seems that right now people are too worried about a bad result messing up their ability to talk casually about their trips I just want side effects to be based on less conjecture science lets its beliefs die, faithful die with their beliefs right now, psychonauts seem to be in the latter group and its not helping the science form at all
