Thank you! I share your hope that medical research will improve access to pharmaceutical-grade psychedelic medicines while also increasing support systems of psychologists for those looking to work through trauma in a clinical setting. As you pointed out, the black market is hardly an ideal place to source drugs, but yep, that's what's available now and I thought I may as well do a harm reduction post for people looking to trip but not knowing where to start.
I made a brief mention of seeking out a trip sitter, and you're right that some people would definitely benefit from a comforting presence and light supervision for backup.
Great points, thanks for sharing!
