| | Treatment of Alcoholism with Psychedelic Therapy |
 | | Psychedelic therapy refers to a form of psychotherapy in which hallucinogenic drugs are used in a particular way to facilitate the final goal, which for alcoholics is sobriety. |  | | The psychedelic therapist works with material that the patient experiences and discusses, and helps him resynthesize a new model of life or a new personal philosophy. |  | | Psychedelic therapy is the only therapy that has prepared alcoholics to become responsible members of AA, when previously they had been unable to do so. |

| | Psychedelic - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | A psychedelic experience is characterized by the perception of aspects of one's mind previously unknown, or by the creative exuberance of the mind liberated from its ordinary fetters. |  | | The impact of psychedelic drugs on western culture in the 1960s led to meaning drift in the use of the word "psychedelic", and it is now frequently applied to describe any brightly patterned or coloured object. |  | | Science and Consciousness Review, The Neurochemistry of Psychedelic Experience: http://www.sci-con.org/editorials/20030603.html |

| | Science And Consciousness Review |
 | | Scientific and clinical work with psychedelics was interrupted when the drugs were outlawed in the U.S. in 1965 as a response to their growing non-medical use, but in recent years, renewed scientific interest in consciousness has led to a small revival of psychedelic drug research. |  | | Psychedelic means "mind-manifesting" and refers to the ability of these drugs to illuminate normally hidden aspects of mind or psyche. |  | | However, as the psychedelic experience or “trip” does not resemble endogenous psychoses, this interpretation was later discarded. |

 | | In publishing this practical interpretation for use in the psychedelic drug session, we are in a sense breaking with the tradition of secrecy and thus contravening the teachings of the lama-gurus. |  | | The psychedelic drugs are in the United States classified as "experimental" drugs. |  | | The authors were engaged in a program of experiments with LSD and other psychedelic drugs at Harvard University, until sensational national publicity, unfairly concentrating on student interest in the drugs, led to the suspension of the experiments. |

| | Psychedelic Pioneers |
 | | Whereas most psychedelic therapists were prepared to assist their patients should difficulties arise, Dr. Salvador Roquet, a maverick Mexican psychiatrist, consciously sought to induce a bummer as part of his "treatment." Roquet utilized various hallucinogenic drugs, including LSD, psilocybin, mescaline, datura, and ketamine. |  | | In a similar fashion the psychedelic evidence challenged the entrenched world view of the psychiatric establishment, and proponents of LSD therapy were summarily denounced and ridiculed by those who were fixated on the model psychosis concept. |  | | Psychedelic therapy, developed by Captain Al Hubbard and popularized by Dr. Humphry Osmond, was geared toward achieving a mystical or conversion experience. |

 | | Secondly, the content of the psychedelic experience was to be explained by the Freudian theory of the unconscious. |  | | Psychedelic drugs attach you to medico-biologic introspection, evoking active concern with your biochemistry, etc. (In contrast, when psychic energizers kick in, they lessen anxiety, and you welcome their effect without reservation.) It is difficult to refrain from probing for unseen (material) causes. |  | | This psychology of the psychedelic experience is a review of a session of my own, and of sophisticated, detailed accounts of experimentation by five of my acquaintances. |

| | Medical Possibilities for Psychedelic Drugs |
 | | Other scientists are focusing their psychedelic research on learning more about the human brain, discovering antidotes to drug overdoses, and relieving pain in cancer patients. |  | | According to Yensen, researchers also observed that many cancer patients receiving LSD reported that their desire for addictive pain medicines, such as morphine, had diminished or vanished, along with the pain. |  | | Early research suggested medical promise for psychedelic drugs. |

 | | The minimum requirements of a successful guide are experience with psychedelics (not necessarily extensive experience, but some nonetheless and the more the better) and the ability to handle whatever crops up. |  | | As a guide, your role is to _guide_ the others, to make sure that they come to no harm and that everything is OK. This also means that you have to be able to suppress your desire to have fun and your desire to control the actions of others so that they suit you. |  | | The objective is to free you from your verbal mind for as long as possible. |

| | "What is 'Art Psychedelic'?" |
 | | Judge for yourself, though; on the one hand such classifications are highly subjective, but on the other hand this is something that I've studied extensively. |  | | Here is a link to more specific examples of artists which I, personally, consider to be psychedelic (as well as some related terms). |  | | Psychedelic, which means "mind-manifesting", refers (in this context) to anything reminiscent of the psychoactive effects of entheogens (formerly known incorrectly as "hallucinogens") such as LSD, mescaline, psilocybin, DMT, etc. However, a person doesn't necessarily have to have tried any of these mind-expanding sacraments in order for them to appreciate psychedelic artwork. |

 | | It is often inspired by the experience of mind-altering drugs such as cannabis, psilocybin, mescaline, and especially LSD. |  | | Their music, however, grew more psychedelic and experimental, perhaps due in part to writer/producer/arranger Brian Wilson's increased drug usage and burgeoning mental illness. |  | | However, an inner core of the genre that came to fruition in 1967 can be recognized by characteristic features such as modal melodies; esoteric lyrics often describing dreams, visions, or hallucinations; longer songs and lengthy instrumental solos; and recently invented "trippy" electronic effects such as distortion, reverb, and reversed, delayed and/or phased sounds. |
