The safety and efficacy of {+/-}3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine-assisted psychotherapy in subjects with chronic, treatment-resistant posttraumatic stress disorder: the first randomized controlled pilot study.
Discussions reflect a nuanced view, highlighting both the promising results of MDMA-assisted therapy and skepticism about the strength of formal evidence, as shown in comments about the research being 'light' due to Schedule 1 restrictions. Emotional language appears in posts advocating for veterans, indicating a desire for tangible social impact beyond academic findings.
AgreementModerate agreement
Most discussions acknowledge the potential benefits of MDMA-assisted psychotherapy based on existing research, though some express skepticism about formal studies and legal barriers.
InterestModerate interest
There is moderate interest shown, especially with mentions of veteran struggles and ongoing research, but some participants dismiss the topic due to perceived overexposure or legal issues.
EngagementNeutral engagement
The engagement levels are mixed; some posts briefly reference the study and anecdotal evidence, while others, like the call to action for helping veterans, show deeper emotional involvement.
ImpactModerate impact
There is a recognition that this research could influence treatment options and social discussions, evidenced by calls to action and references to veteran suicides and existing promising results.
Abstract in brief
This study is the first to evaluate the use of MDMA as an aid to psychotherapy for patients with treatment-resistant posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), showing promising results in reducing symptoms.
Participants were divided into two groups: one received MDMA during therapy sessions, and the other received a placebo; the MDMA group showed significantly greater improvement in PTSD symptoms at multiple follow-up points.
The treatment was generally safe, with no serious adverse effects or neurocognitive issues reported, suggesting MDMA-assisted psychotherapy could be a helpful option for patients who do not respond to traditional treatments.]

@cremieuxrecueil My guy, it’s all over. There are hundreds of first hand experiences out there, TONS of books covering it. Formal studies are light, Schedule 1 and all, but come on
