Study finds lsd therapy strikingly effective at reducing anxiety and depression

…published in the journal Biological Psychiatry, a team of Swiss researchers administered 20 participants, who were diagnosed with a life-threatening illness, and a further 22 participants with a mental disorder, significant amounts of lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD)…

Participants of the study received either LSD or a placebo over three visits covering a 24-week period. The ones who received LSD were administered 200 micrograms, the top end of the range for therapeutic purposes. “LSD produced strong reductions of anxiety, depression, and general psychiatric symptomatology compared with placebo in the first treatment period,” the researchers write in their paper. “Effects were maximal 2 weeks after the second LSD session and sustained up to 16 weeks.”
