The moment I got to this paragraph, I was a little worried about the overall message: But then the lady also mentioned in the end that she is not a scientist and that she would rather stay in the background. Which I totally respect! Then there were the talks about the benefits of recreational use. A discussion I keep having with a friend is about this halo effect. He says that taking the drugs makes you feel as if they helped you in something but all of this might be just placebo or even harming in the long term. Now I have talked LSD, MDMA, Psilocybin and smoke Cannabis. The things I experienced were mind blowing, amazing, hard to describe. After that, I was fascinated by the substances and I am actively working on building up an NGO for the support of psychedelic studies in Germany. I don't have the feeling that it was placebo. What about you Hubski? Do you think it could be all "fake"?“The video is frustrating in terms of public perception,” she says. “But trepanation has had subtle but definite benefits for me, and to the other people I know who have had it done. Jamie had chronic headaches until he was trepanned, but not since. I think it has a lot of potential advantages. My theory is that trepanation improves the level of blood circulation round the brain to that of childhood. You get more blood into the brain with each heartbeat, and also an increase in washout of toxins. I’d suggest that cannabis and psychedelics do the same thing, but at a higher level. There are other techniques that can achieve this, like yogic breathing or cranial osteopathy, but trepanation is permanent.”
