The Psilocybin Research Team at Johns Hopkins needs your help.

Ad-RS-BadTrip Long-01

Our friends Roland Griffiths and Katherine MacLean are looking for a bit of help with their research, if anyone would care to participate here’s the information about what they’re looking for.

“We’re conducting an anonymous, web-based study to characterize difficult or challenging experiences that people sometimes have on psilocybin mushrooms (i.e. “bad trips,” whether the person later regards them negatively or positively).

“If you’ve ever had such an experience, we’d greatly appreciate it if you would take our survey. Importantly, if you know of others who’ve ever had a ‘bad’ psilocybin experience, please send them the link and encourage them to participate. This includes people who had a difficult experience long ago.

“As you may know, our team has conducted survey and laboratory studies characterizing positive experiences with psilocybin. You can see our body of work here: csp.org/psilocybin. This new survey is an important extension of our research on psilocybin. Here it is. Please share.
