Hey #mdma for #ptsd researchers. CBT and EMDR with and without medicine with #ketamine by mouth as the active placebo.

Very readworthy, even though the paper's hyperfocusing on Israeli trauma while totally silent about the ongoing genocide against Palestinians appears obscene to me. Or is DJ Netanyahu about to send MDMA to Gaza prior to throwing the next rave of mass murder of civilians by bomb shellings?

#mdma + psychotherapy in phase 3 FDA clinical trials included a manualized form of psychotherapy and included an adherence manual used by independent raters who monitored filmed sessions, noting around a 90% adherence rate.

"Brendan was once a leader in the US white nationalist movement. But when he took the drug MDMA in a scientific study, it would radically change his extremist beliefs – to the surprise of everyone involved. Rachel Nuwer investigates what happened.
