    i wish that they would also reschedule lsd and psilocybin to schedule III, but at least some progress is better than no progress

      And MDMA? It shows a lot of promise in therapeutic use. Schedule 1 is for substances with “no currently accepted medical treatment use”.

        Yeah, MDMA also doesn’t belong in schedule I, although it is definitely more risky than lsd and mushrooms

            Overdose of MDMA can cause seratonin syndrome, which can be fatal; and long term use might be linked to depression and anxiety (again, by the way it interacts with seratonin)

            It definitely should be rescheduled too, since it is not dangerous enough and definitely has potential for medical use (couple therapy was it’s original use)
