Can psilocybin help those with no internal monologue or imagination?

psilocybin

I was looking into stuff for my friend who apparently has no internal monologue or capability to imagine images which is amazing but I can't imagine a life with that. I knew someone years that also couldn't imagine images a few years back and asked her what would happen if they took psychedelics. It turns out they've been using something called psilocybin to tackle a range of disorders like the ones mentioned above, ptsd and ocd with some positive results. I feel as if it might untangle some stuff in our minds in order to see more clearly. The hallucinations of the psychedelics may purely be our brain reorganising itself. Thought it was interesting

hey! i was a research major in college and actually wrote a research paper for a class on psilocybin as a treatment option for ocd, ptsd, and addiction disorders. it completely remaps the brain synapses when it comes to emotions. If you search psilocybin on pubmed you’ll find a ton of peer reviewed articles from research studies. it’s incredible.

Yes, I agree, your brain is "reorganizing" itself. Remember my theory of "garbage collection ".. sorry just wanted to brag 😜. But for real, I concur with the fact it is a normal mechanism in the brain.

I agree with your theory but feel it's part of a bigger whole with my theory 😅 I think it's more of a retuning than reorganising. I like having someone to bounce ideas off

@Wolfram - It might be just semantics difference, I call it "recycling" memory spaces rather than "returning"...

Shrooms

Has anyone tried or looked into psilocybin treatment? I keep reading good things but the idea freaks me out. I tripped on acid once - long time ago and spent 12 hours in an OCD hellscape that took years to fully return from.

Microdosing

Hey guys, I know this is taboo to some people so ignore it and move on if you have a different view but, has anyone here tried microdosing with natural medicine for ocd? The kind that grows in the woods and can be found under decaying trees and cow patties. You know the kind…

Shrroms

Has anyone taken shrooms or micro dosed before? I’m thinking about it but idk how it will effect someone with bad anxiety and ocd
