A new study has revealed MDMA could help people recover from post-traumatic stress disorder.
Scientists in California recently ran a trial combining MDMA treatment in varying doses with psychotherapy on a group of military veterans, firefighters and police officers, finding at the end half the group no longer met the diagnostic criteria for PTSD.
Lead researcher Dr Allison Feduccia, said the “study suggests that MDMA might help augment the psychotherapeutic experience and may have a role to play in the future treatment of PTSD”, although the drugs should only be consumed with support from a trained psychotherapist.
