RE: Psychology Addict # 60 | A Journey Through The History of Madness.
Coincidentally, I had a conversation with someone tonight regarding their stay in a psychiatric ward and he praised his doctors for sincerely trying to discover a cause for his behaviors. He's fine now and although they misdiagnosed him and failed to treat any of his problems back then, he was impressed with their methods and their desire to find a cause. Lately I've been interested in learning more about how psilocybin can heal trauma. Definitely a journey.
I'm pleased to hear about this case @geke. And thank you for taking the time to contribute to our discussion with it. It's a shame they couldn't diagnose him accurately. But, then again, there is still a long way to go. I suppose that in the end what matters in this instance is that he is better, and felt he was treated with dignity.
I'm familiar with psilocybin as a means to treat depression. I know very little about its use in the treatment of trauma. I could do some digging and look into some research. And, who knows, I might even write about it in the future? :D
Thank you for stopping by Geke :* <3
