Abstract

In Basel, only a few hundred meters from where LSD was first synthesized, we tested LSD-assisted therapy for major depression in a randomized trial comparing two high doses with two low doses, each paired with supportive psychotherapy. This Backstory reflects on treating patients, long dosing days, and what remains uncertain.
