Many people with PTSD from war or police work end up with horrendous traumatic experiences, including abused children, anyone substantially emotionally damaged by rejection, bullying, injuries, kids on the school bus I drove for years would echo a YouTube video saying out loud "Emotional Damage"
Years ago I published a blog posting about using LSD to treat alcoholism, yet today evidence building that in a single dose, other shorter duration psychedelic drugs have the ability to create a stronger reset than lower dose daily psychiatric medications for depression.
Understanding Depression
Dr. Carolina Leaf published interesting books about how to achieve peak mental performance and health, exploring the underlying mental processes that either help improve your mood, memory, mental performance, or cause negative thoughts that are linking to causing toxic effect via degrading mind body relationships, moreover that if you have unhealthy thought life, those unhealthy thought become a chronic stress inside your mind, and because your mind entangled with your brain, and because your brain the master control organ in your body, any unhealthy thoughts if maintained can become toxic by causing regulatory dysfunction in the brain, which then creating regulatory dysfunction in the body.
Chemical Shortcut
A single strong dose of strong psychedelic drug effectively shatters the default mode network, DMN, and this important for treating depression because resetting the DMN, allows rapid injection of healthier modes of thought to reflect on, that break up the dysfunctional thoughts that dominate underlining mechanism of depression.
Negative News & World Realities
If a person studies reality enough to understand all the problems in the world, and knowledge of these problems becomes part of their normal thoughts, then frustration with government and industry failing to reduce pollution, unfair trace, crime, corruption, or other problems, such as the housing crisis, currency inflation crisis, US national debt crisis, insourcing and outsourcing, child trafficking, new forms of fraud and scams, in effect, if you only run negative ideas through your mind, then it will sour your world view and make you frustrated and angry and bitter and negative, which are the hallmarks of depression, not wanted to even engage in an unfair world with so many problems.
Zooming Out at Totality of the Evidence
Your personal life probably does not contain all those problems you read about or saw in a video online, and if your being honest, many of those things that happen in the past are no longer happening, and many of those bad things that happened to you were not your fault, and even if they were you fault, your not that person anymore. In effect, if you have depression, you need to develop a healthier mental model, your default mode thinking normal needs to contain happy thoughts, nice ideas, pleasant memories, go back in your head to happier memories, reflect on nice ideas, hold these pleasing pleasant thoughts front and center in your mind.
Gender Confusion Frustration Science Biology Faith Tradition
Maybe your like marriage, family, faith in God and traditional binary gender, and find the SJW WOKE transgender stuff in media annoying like me. You might wonder why any school counselor would groom a minor into gender change before the person old enough to understand, noting children can be easily steered by adults with words, so those counselors are manipulating kids, and when a minor chooses to undergo gender conversion, when they become an adult, it may not be possible to go back when they realize that was not really them, but instead it was the counselor persuading them when they were young and impressionable. This kind of reflection about Gender could piss someone off, make them frustrated, angry, and degrade the default mode network with negative thinking.
Alcohol Toxicity Increasingly Trending on Social Media
People under 30 are almost not interested in alcoholic beverages. Industry representatives of big alcohol are concerned, yet many are pivoting to making mocktails, ethanol free beer and wine, also known as zero beer, zero wine, na beer, na wine. Using low temp vapor distillation beer wine or spirits can be evaporated to remove most of the alcohol content down to less than half of one percent, or less than 1 proof. This is similar to a rotary evaporator used in science labs to remove solvents and isolate desired product.
Ethanol the active part of alcohol beverages causes toxic inflammation in the brain, liver, kidneys, gut membranes, and at higher doses alcohol can product fatal poisoning. Evidence building that ethanol and HFCS both acutely harm liver cells, and in some ways ethanol metabolically similar to pre-digested fructose, the sugar in HFCS, which means high FRUCTOSE corn syrup, invented in Japan 1987, and widely used as a sweetener in soda or pop.
Soda cold beverages in cans popular in Islamic countries, even though cold soda the leading cause of NAFLD non-alcoholic fatty liver disorder. Chronic soda consumption causing phosphate kidney damage because of phosphoric acid in soda pop. Phosphoric acid in soda also erodes toot enamel and dentin, causing oral disease acceleration. In many ways soda as toxic as alcohol, because people do not understand that soda toxic, that regular consumption of soda promotes obesity and metabolic diseases like high blood sugar and type 2 diabetes.
Cannabis, Magic Mushrooms
THC, Psilocybin, other psychedelics, chocolate, black pepper, cloves, nutmeg, morning glory seeds, bath salts, analogs of ketamine medications, 5HT-A receptor agonists, we see billions of investment, companies like AtaiBeckley of AB are commercializing psychedelic drugs, BPL-003, with break-through approval from the FDA, raising $300 million in capital quickly. My list of foods and common fun drugs, weed, magic mushrooms, that's because coffee, tea, kava tea, GABA supplement, L-theanine, many substances sold as supplements, even a multi-B vitamin, can be psychedelic, so can smoking tobacco.
The first time my wife and I split a cigarette we became high as a kite, it was crazy intense, we immediate wondered "no wonder drivers smoking do dangerous things in traffic, smoking deeply intoxicating. Princess Dianna died in part because the driver of her car was intoxicated from inhale smoking a cigar, which introduce a lot of CO and Nicotine to the blood stream, which could alter a persons ability to safely operate an automobile. Yet many consider that Dianna was murdered and it was made to look like an accident, because the Royal family wanted to get rid of her, so King Charles could get with his real love, you know the idea.
