Scientists Need Your Help To Test Psychedelic Drugs Effects on Mental Illness

Huffington Post reports that leading psychedelic researchers believe that some psychedelic drugs can possibly have the "power to rewire the human brain and possibly revolutionize treatment for a number of debilitating mental health issues".

Nick Wing os Huffington Post reports that, "But thanks to a grueling approval process and the widespread stigma attached to these drugs, the path to officially recognizing their potential medical benefits has been difficult."

So what are they going to do? They are asking for help and people to donate to their crowdfunding page.

I know. It is crazy! Their goal is to reach for $2 million.

They will also be studying 3 different types of drugs and it's effects on the brain.

• Psilocybin

One study will focus on treating anxiety and the other on alcoholism.

• MDMA

This will be used to see the effects for treating PTSD.

• LSD

The scientists will be using LSD to test the effects on mood, cognition, productivity and creativity.
