Title: Clusters mentioned in Wired Magazine LSD article
Post by fubar on Jan 17^th, 2006, 1:45pm

LSD: The Geek's Wonder Drug? (http://www.wired.com/news/technology/0,70015-0.html?tw=wn_tophead_3)

"...But Doblin notes that a group of people who say LSD provides relief from their cluster headaches have organized online and are pushing for a study at Harvard to explore a possible therapy using the drug. If Harvard accepts the MDMA study, Doblin says it could pave the way for the symbolically important return of LSD research at Harvard that halted during the tenure of Timothy Leary. His goal, says Doblin, is to secure an LSD study in time for Hofmann's 101st birthday."

Quote from Page 2 of the article

"Dr. Sewell says people who have underlying mental disorders should not take LSD because it could make their symptoms worse. "

When in CH cycle, we ALL have mental disorders. Does this mean we don't qualify??? :-/

Reminds me of a speech by Dr. Charles Grob, a psychiatrist at Harbor-UCLA Medical Center, at the MindStates conference last year. He spent more than a year getting FDA and DEA approval to use psilocybin to treat existential anxiety (fear of death) in late-stage cancer patients. The FDA wanted him to change the protocol so he could only administer psilocybin to "healthy people". He finally got approval to use psilo with terminally ill cancer patients.

"Sansert" which was prescribed for me when I was 24 years old came from the "Sandose' Pharma Company. It was worked on by Dr. Timothy and it came with huge side effect print-outs !!!!!!!!
