Reframing Psychedelic Regulation: Tools, not Treatments

In this new article, we propose to regulate psychedelics as psychotherapeutic treatment tools rather than as treatments in their own right.

The use of anesthetics as treatment tools in surgery is a useful analogy.

I'll be performing at Psychedelic Science with Ripples, 18th of June, 19:00, Denver. Collective Liberation Ritual held by Palestinian and Israeli artivists. It will be deep and meaningful, so do come if you are around

Many thanks to @leorroseman.bsky.social for his musings on psychedelics diffusion during our b2b (boat-to-boat) call.

It sparked some thoughts, below (post includes a link to Leor’s excellent ICPR talk):

A perspective piece of mine of paradigmatic tension between biological psychiatry and psychedelic therapy, as reflected in the FDA regulatory process (yes, it takes that long to publish in academic journals, even a small opinion piece).

My academic work moves into art. It's a huge honour to perform with Ripples Collective - a group of Palestinian and Israeli activists and artists. The performance is called Collective Liberation Ritual, and carries the audience through a process from grief to solidarity and empowerment. More to come

I had an Imaginary interview with Martin Buber (based on excerpts from I and Thou). A Weird dialogue with the past about psychedelics, mystical exp, relations, alienation, the state of the world and more. As usual, he was full of critique, wisdom, and compassion researchgate.net/publication/...

1) Interdisciplinary researcher, currently focusing on social-political-communal; teaching at MSc Psychedelics at Exeter

2) A non-profit called Ripples for psychedelic peacebuilding; and Palestinian-Israeli performance named Collective Liberation Ritual (gofund.me/d3a92973)

Just arrived, it feels like a mixture of a cute reunion with the naïveté of younger days, together with the hope of finding a platform for wise and mature knowledge exchange and communication.
