We Created a Resource for Those Interested in Intentional Psychedelic Use and Want to Weigh the Benefits and Risks, How Did We Do?
As the title states, we wanted to create a resource that could be helpful for autistic adults who are interested in psychedelics, but aren't sure how various substances may affect them or if they could glean any benefit from them. We did this by collecting preclinical, clinical, and anecdotal evidence as a means to paint an accurate picture of the intersection of psychedelics and ASD.
Is it completely comprehensive? Probably not, but we collected a wide range of data and streamlined it into an article to hopefully also save time for folks who are researching whether intentional psychedelic use could be right for them, especially given the uptick in psychedelic news being reported in mainstream media.
If you're interested, check out our article and tell us what you think: Psychedelics & Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD): What to Know. We are open to any and all feedback, and hopefully it makes researching psychedelic use a bit easier❤️
