I saw a video where an anesthesiologist used 'Ketamine Therapy' to help people deal with depression. Its a real anesthesiologist who does a lot of videos about his work which usually is just keeping people under during surgery.

I hear what you're saying about LSD. Somebody else was talking about possible future treatment uses for DMT. Its all interesting, but it seems most of us have been born too early to benefit. Psychology is still trying to catch up with reality.

Born too early? As in too old to reap the potential benefits of the use psychedelics in psychotherapy? As far as I know, LSD and DMT in particular are currently being trialed as palliative medications that assist people who are terminally ill to effectively come to terms with their mortality and reduce anxiety surrounding death. Ketamine enthusiasts are interesting to me - and I can see why a lot of people with Bipolar and Major Depression might see the benefit of its use in a therapeutic setting; I don't really know so much about that. Might give it a YouTube at some point.

I agree that psychology/psychiatry really got a raw deal when being able to explore psychedelics. Like I said, it's disappointing that media and politicians and fearful maintainers of the status quo got in the way and stifled our ability to explore "the beyond within" as it was once described. Psychedelics in particular have enormous potential to straight up cure a lot of mental health maladies very quickly and effortlessly but the reason these methods are outlawed have far less to do with the possible dangers they present and far more to do with the fact that spending sometimes people's entire lifetimes chopping and changing ineffective psychiatric medications, exhausting insurance and personal funds paying for endless consults with various different health care professionals and inpatient admissions is far more profitable than some emo kid taking a trip or two at a party and suddenly realizing that life is beautiful and worth living without encumbrance.
