Psychedelic frees up depressed brain, study shows

No.14387997 ViewReplyOriginalReport
Should I be hopeful or cautious about? I've suffered from MDD since childhood (teenage years to be exact), but I've also been diagnosed on the schizophrenic-spectrum (SAD to be exact), so I'm not sure if this can be counted as good news for me as these are still, well, psychedlics.
>Psilocybin, a drug found in magic mushrooms, appears to free up the brains of people with severe depression in a way that other antidepressants do not, a study has found.

>The results, based on brain scans of 60 people, mean the drug could treat depression in a unique way, the researchers say.

>Psychedelics are being studied to treat a range of mental health disorders.

>Patients with depression are warned not to take psilocybin on their own.

>A synthetic form of the drug is tested on people in trials under strict medical conditions, with psychological support from experts provided before, during and after it is taken.

>Prof David Nutt, study author and head of the Imperial College London's Centre for Psychedelic Research, said the latest findings on psilocybin were "exciting" and "important".

>With depression, the brain can get stuck in a rut and locked into a particular negative way of thinking, he said.

>But when given psilocybin, people's brains opened up and became "more flexible and fluid" up to three weeks later.

>This could be seen in increased connections between regions of the brain when patients were scanned. These patients were more likely to experience an improvement in mood months later.

>Similar changes were not seen in the brains of people treated with a standard antidepressant.

>"This supports our initial predictions, and confirms psilocybin could be a real alternative approach to depression treatments," Prof Nutt said.

Am I fucked?

No.14395049 ViewReplyOriginalReport
Sorry if this is the wrong thread but I don’t really know where else to ask. I assume I’m at least most likely to get a response from someone who at least knows what they are talking about on this board compared to any other I could ask this question especially /fit/

Basically at nearly 30 years old I’ve worked out on my own with zero help from doctors that I was born with Marfan syndrome. I have every ‘symptom’ but if you saw me with clothes on I just look like a tall Chad.

Everything I’ve read about it suggests without constant management of symptoms you’re extremely likely to die young, I’ve started getting some of the health problems associated with it too. So how fucked am I with 30 years of not seeing doctors or anything and how fucked am I if I don’t start now? Any advice on what I should do or what my future might look like would be really helpful.

Myopericarditis and vaxx

No.14392460 ViewReplyOriginalReport
Myopericarditis happens at elevated, but still statistically tiny, numbers after a covid vaccination. A Lancet study recently found this also applied for smallpox vaccines way back in the past.
My question is, what is the mechanism that causes this to happen?
