Molly Wants to Talk About Your Trauma
Manage episode 491909569 series 3640536
In this feel-good episode (literally), we dive into How to Change Your Mind by Michael Pollan and explore the powerful therapeutic potential of MDMA for mental health. From the dusty shelves of the Merck company, to Sasha Sulgan's re-synthesization, to dance floor to the therapist’s couch, MDMA—also known as “Molly” or “Ecstasy”—has transformed from party drug to promising treatment for PTSD, depression, and anxiety.
We unpack groundbreaking research led by pioneers like Dr. Shari Taylor, Rick Doblin (founder of MAPS), and Dr. Ben Sessa, who are pushing MDMA-assisted therapy into the mainstream. Learn how this psychedelic compound is helping trauma survivors, breaking down emotional barriers, and creating breakthroughs in mental health care.
