Psychedelics, THC, and SSRIs - Oh My! feat. Dr. Conor Murray
Update: 2022-03-08
Description
There's been a lot of talk about psychedelics, micro-dosing, and THC lately, so Steph decided to have on a neuroscientist to explain how these various drugs act on the brain. Dr. Conor Murray is a neuroscientist, and his main focus of study is neuropsychopharmacology. Some of his latest work includes a study on the effects of THC on the adolescent brain vs. the adult brain.
Conor and Steph discuss:
- How THC effects adolescents and adults differently: performance, cognitive functioning, and other measures
- How psilocybin and LSD on the brain
- Could psychedelics and LSD potentially be a new, safe, treatment for certain psychiatric disorders?
- What's safer? Unregulated medicine from the earth or pharmaceutical medicine?
- How SSRIs work
- The future of brain health and diagnosing psychiatric disorders
