Psychedelic therapy should be trialled and rolled out.

We need out of the box thinking.

As a proponent of psychedelics, this can't be the solution. The fact that 25% of the population is impacted enough to warrant a prescription is scary, but psychs won't fix it long term. The underlying societal issues need to be tackled.

As I heard Psychedelics can work great in terms of curing mental illnesses. But you're rright. When you have such an obvious Problem with mental health, you can't give everyone the stuff they need to be happy. Its fighting the symptoms, not the cause.
