A Review of the Federal Drug Administration Pipeline and Proposed California Legislation on Medicinal Psychedelics. (PubMed, Perm J) - "The authors will include a review of the FDA's recent denial of the New Drug Application for 3-4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine with adjuvant psychotherapy for posttraumatic stress disorder from Lykos Therapeutics of San Jose, California (formerly the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies Public Benefit Corporation)...These legislative efforts reflect an alternative and less expensive pathway, but they do not make as thorough of an evaluation for drug safety. The authors will propose that the FDA remains the appropriate agency to evaluate and approve the use of this class of proposed therapeutics."

My Bad, You Got This: witnessing, therapist attitude and the synergy between psychedelics and inner healing intelligence in the treatment of trauma. (PubMed, Front Psychol) - "The MAPS (Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies) sponsored MDMA-assisted therapy protocol has had greater success in treating trauma in preliminary clinical trials than any prior psychotherapeutic, pharmacologic, or combined approach...This makes trusting one's inner healing intelligence a process of feeling witnessed. In both settings, the therapist's willingness to acknowledge her technical limitations or failings, coupled with a conviction that the participant/patient's primary need in processing trauma is to feel witnessed, facilitates the integration of dissociated experience."
