I don’t see what your issue is with this process. You seem a rational person so it’s confusing to me.
These compounds may or may not work better than traditional AD. The only way to figure out is by doing these trials. If they don’t work then it was worth trying, that’s how you progress. If they do work that’s awesome, we now have a better tool to fight against mental health issues.
- jokoon 2y agoI have nothing against trials, but to me the title is a bit editorialized. Summarizing a study that is not a very interesting breakthrough smells like it attempt to promote something, but at least the article talks a lot about caution. It's okay to talk about studies, it's just that it is a controversial subject, in my view, and the internet is not the most skeptical place, especially when it comes with medicine, which involves the health of people, which matters, unlike the earth being flat or round. That sort of article will usually be shown by some people as a scientific proof that justifies their consumption of psilo instead of listening to a doctor, which is the real thing that bothers me. Believe me, I want psilo to be an antidepressant as much as everybody, but I want doctors and institutions like the FDA to validate it. It's the same for everything. If 1/3 of the scientists in that field would sign a letter that says psilo is a viable antidepressant and a treatment, that might change my mind too.
