Big result here. Baseline expectancy for efficacy of psilocybin-therapy in depression was NOT predictive of actual response to psilocybin therapy. Conversely, expectancy for the SSRI DID predict response to the SSRI.
Wonderful to have been a part of this new study 🔭 finding evidence of expectancy predicting dep response in the Escitalopram tx arm, but *Not* the Psilocybin Therapy arm Led by @psybalazs & @RCarhartHarris @DavidErritzoe @_fernando_rosas @ProfDavidNutt pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3824…

Very interesting study and thread! Shows the importance of the therapy in which the psychedelic experience is embedded.

What happens when corporations are in charge of psychedelic therapy. Psychedelic assisted therapy should be available for free through the public health system for all patients who need it. #psychedelic #psilocybin
