A Brief History of the Prohibition, Decriminalization and Efficacy of MDMA with Clinical Therapist Charley Wininger
-
サマリー
あらすじ・解説
Many still think of MDMA as a substance used by people in their early 20s going to festivals and raves. But new research has revealed MDMA's promise as a treatment, amongst other, for PTSD and depression. And our guest today sees it as a medicine that can be used to foster connection and enliven and deepen relationships, all through the adult lifespan, even and especially in advanced age.
Charley Wininger is a licensed psychotherapist for over 30 years whose mission is to prove MDMA's efficacy as a therapeutic medicine, saying the so-called chemical of connection can offer emotional as well as social benefits to people in all stages of life. Charley is the author of Listening to Ecstasy: The Transformative Power of MDMA. Part memoir and part guidebook, Wininger describes the profound effects MDMA has had on his practice as a psychotherapist, as well as enhancing his personal life and relationship with his wife Shelley, while providing data and advice for safe use and integration.
