As a parent of a neurodiverse adult, I immediately thought of the possible benefits of using psychedelics for him after using them myself. It will be interesting to see how this progresses. I will be passing this information along to him. Bravo for starting the Autistic Psychedelics Group!

I’m so glad this has been brought up! There are so many neurodiverse people out there that could really benefit from these kinds of interventions. My brother has cerebral palsy and is severely mentally handicapped as a result. He gets really bad anxiety and panic attacks sometimes, so my family and I have been working with CBD and other cannabis products to help him and it seems to work so far! I have really high hopes about psychedelics opening so many doors for high functioning, neurodiverse people, as well as inviting more research, public education, and a better understanding of what makes these people so unique.
