Woah woah woah, at what point was daily administration of MDMA a real consideration? I am genuinely curious, because I only ever heard of MDMA as a short-term tool for use in a therapeutic setting. It seems to me that people who distort the argument for daily use of MDMA are only trying to undermine its actual therapeutic usage. Maybe I am wrong, but I have personally NEVER heard of a proposition for MDMA to be used as a daily medication. I have heard of it only to be used under a therapeutic setting, only after significant trust and connection has been made with a given patient. Again, not once have I heard that MDMA should be a daily used substance. Personally, I think that might be one of the major miscommunications which undermines the legitimacy of psychedelic therapy. I don't think any logical researcher would be considering MDMA, psilocybin, or LSD to be a daily regimen. I feel like I Can't emphasize that enough.

See my comments above, they basically have proven this. I am so glad that there is a major community of people these days who are using psychedelic therapy in the ways that it should be. Massive amounts of historical context provide validity to the value of psychedelic substances when they are used as you have used them. Again, I really appreciate you pointing out that these substances don't "need" to be used in a prescriptive sense. Rather, prescriptive power should be used to help ensure the substances are given validity, as well as to ensure they are not used excessively (this abuse rarely happens as there is significant evidence to show they are not even remotely addictiveaddictive )
