Description

In this episode:

  • Are we on the brink of a huge paradigm shift in the way we think about mental health disorders and how we treat our patients?
  • Current psychiatry is essentially symptomatic treatment mainly because our understanding of mental illness is still rudimentary and mostly conjectural…. psychedelics involve a completely different approach
  • Psychedelic therapy may offer patients access to treatment that will allow them to safely grow through disorder and possibly achieve a genuine cure

 

Host: Dr David Lim, GP and Medical Educator
