How to Protect Older People From the Coronavirus #highriskcovid19 https://t.co/jBsNxHJ1wC

[Joshua Siegel @realJoshSiegel]

After a high dose of psilocybin, the brain desynchronizes at a massive scale, causing loss of our sense of self, time, and space. This may drive the burst of plasticity caused by psychedelics. The next day, brain activity has largely returned to normal, but an echo remains – a reset of circuits critical to the sense of self.

To everyone who goes:"I don't need to see a therapist,I can read a book&do it myself"

You can't.

I see a therapist&I am trained to do it myself& my therapist STILL finds connections in my life that I want to give her a standing ovation for....

Like...MAYBE I PRACTICALLY...did.
