Writer, editor, mental health advocate, psilocybin for depression participant, @PsyPANglobal co-founder. Proud part of @Oprah & #PrinceHarry's #TheMeYouCantSee
One of the biggest and strangest days of my life: #TheMeYouCantSee, the mental health documentary series produced by @Oprah and Prince Harry, has been launched. I'm in episode 5 along with #GlennClose and @sadam_hanjabam, which you can view via this link: https://t.co/d2HcLLa5lJ
I've been wanting to write this article about the cult of 'psylebrity' and its many dangers for some time now. What would you do (or already doing) to improve and shape the psychedelic community for the better? https://t.co/w2JPu6MD1k
Proud to have been part of this vital paper. Aftercare and integration are vital parts of psychedelic-assisted therapy, as is the right to safely access treatment again post-trial. Huge thanks to @eddietalksdrugs for all his hard work on bringing this to light
"When the Trial Ends: The Case for Post-Trial Provisions in Clinical Psychedelic Research" - new open access paper available in @neuroethics w/co-authors @BeinerMurphy@IanRou@ProfDavidNutt & Dr Meg Spriggs

Proud @PsyPANglobal were part of @psychglobal_'s #PSYCHSymposium last week, discussing the vital importance of therapists in psychedelic-assisted therapy with @LiamNadav @BeinerMurphy and @TimmyJSDavis. Here's a personal view on the therapeutic skills gap

Somewhat unbelievable that one of my old tracks has been featured on a documentary on @BBCRadio4 and, last week, on @bbcworldservice! All part of my work as co-founder of @PsyPANglobal and being a psychedelic-assisted therapy participant. Listen here: https://t.co/XnovvX474t
A new Health Podcast Episode is out! ⚕️
This week, @IanRou shares his insights on psychedelic-assisted therapy, its potential value to patients and what is needed to boost research in this field with EURACTIV's health reporter @GPeseckyt.
Chuffed to see my feature on @clerkenwell_uk, Europe’s first commercially funded psychedelic clinic, in the @theipaper. These treatments are still nascent and unpredictable but they could help fix our broken mental health care system. https://t.co/gLYCq6lYBb
Our appearance on the Proper Mental Podcast is out today!
Thanks to Tom @Propermentalpod for having us and for a great conversation exploring mental health, psychedelic-assisted therapy and the importance of the participant voice in safely delivering these treatments.
For those unable to get past the paywall, this thread covers parts of this week's @TheTimes article I was interviewed for about psychedelic-assisted therapy, my personal story and setting up @PsyPANglobal to help ensure others can safely access these treatments #psilocybin#PAR
Thanks to @DamWhit@TheTimes for countering some of the 'miracle cure silver bullet' hype around psychedelic-assisted therapy with this balanced article. Heartfelt thanks also for dealing with my personal story with such sensitivity and compassion #psilocybin#PAR
@machinewerks_ Hello! Just wondering if you know whether the CS X51 is compatible with the latest generation of Macs? Would hate for it to be redundant! Thank you
This is what I've been up to over the past year - setting up the Psychedelic Participant Advocacy Network (PsyPAN) with fellow clinical trial participant, Leonie Schneider. Animation beautifully created by Sasha Frost and made possible by @psilonautica#psychedelicsafeguarding
We're proud to share this video explaining who we are, what our goals are and how we plan to achieve them, together as one. Beautifully brought to life by animator Sasha Frost and made possible by James and Eddie @psilonautica – huge thanks all! #advocacy#psychedelicsafeguarding
@drjrucker @RCarhartHarris@drrosalindwatts@ProfDavidNutt@sgdruffell@MkRBol Thanks James. Very kind of you. The work you all do brought me hope when there was none, and I'll always be grateful for having you, Robin and Mark as guides - I was spoilt! Thank you all for taking the professional risks to help bring hope to so many living with depression
1/ It was a privilege to be part of @Oprah and #PrinceHarry’s #TheMeYouCantSee series and the time has finally come to do an overview of the episode I shared my story in: Episode 5 ‘This Is Me’ – watch it here https://t.co/aSaqK5u94K
@MkRBol@RCarhartHarris@drrosalindwatts @drjrucker @ProfDavidNutt@sgdruffell Thanks Mark, that's very kind of you. Yes, took part in the Compass trial Kings. Different outcome (no afterglow) but still set me off on a different therapeutic path so still some positives. Keeping 🤞 for a publisher (never easy!) How are you doing?
25/ My heartfelt thanks to @KimReynolds1 and Chelsea Adewunmi @radicalmedia and Director @sameblair and film crew for their support and sensitivity throughout the process and of course to @Oprah and #PrinceHarry for creating this vital, groundbreaking series.
