GOP:  The Party of Science
 

Well, more Sciencier than the alternative who can't even tell what a woman is.

Also Trump is expanding access to psychedelics for treatment of diseases like PTSD

This will do more to slow the veteran suicide epidemic than any gun law ever could.

"Nausea and vomiting can be severe.
Subjects may experience extreme confusion and/or a depressed mood.
 Nausea, headaches, and other side effects linger.
Insomnia, irritability, and mood changes are often seen, including depression and sometimes mania. 
Depression can persist well after 36 hours, known as a "grey day"; the effect is well-recognized
 significant acute and long-term adverse events (especially cardiac issues like QTc prolongation), including fatalities
 Ibogaine can cause various cardiovascular changes (e.g., slowed heart rate, blood pressure shifts), neurological effects (ataxia, tremor, mania), and rare but serious complications, including arrhythmias, respiratory failure, and death
A 2022 review found 58 ibogaine-associated emergencies, including 38 deaths


While I agree of the use of psychedelic drugs for the treatment of psychological issues, this drug seems more of a profit maker at the health expense of those treated.
Why not go back to that good ole Lysergic acid diethylamide 25, or the organic Shrooms and Peyote?
Never heard of any of those bad side affects in those, cept maybe some nausea on the shrooms

My friends who do it beg to differ....

There was a docu on shroom and a guy who had constant migraines.  No RX helped him, he took shroom cause someone mentioned it.  Although he was tripping balls, his migraine was gone and for days.  IIRC he does shrooms once a weeek, but has to factor in his face melting for a few ours after consuming.

First, over-the-counter drugs are not included in the DOJ Drug Schedule lists. Some OTC drugs do present a risk of abuse, such as taking more than directed or using it for problems unrelated to the drug's intended purpose.  We see tha with cold and cough medicines.

Second, the DOJ schedules are supposed to be based on the potential for abuse of a drug, not really whether it's a hallucinogen etc.

Pot is still considered a gateway drug for teens.  Once they abuse that enough times, they may start seeking out more dangerous drugs to achieve the same level of euphoria.
