Ever wondered how MDMA could be used as a therapeutic tool? In this episode of MINDBEND with Matthew Dunehoo, Jonathan Robinson, a seasoned psychotherapist and best-selling author, shares his extensive experience with MDMA therapy. Robinson's latest book, 'Ecstasy As Medicine', dives into his 40-year journey of using MDMA to treat PTSD, anxiety, depression, and trauma. He’s not just another voice in the psychedelic community; his methods have reached millions globally and are even set to align with FDA approval soon.
Robinson explains how his approach to MDMA therapy differs from traditional methods. Instead of merely following protocols for FDA approval, he integrates therapy to achieve more profound results. He shares anecdotes from the 800 journeys he’s led, emphasising the importance of 'set and setting' and the integration of new habits into daily life. The conversation takes a fascinating turn as Robinson discusses the challenges and misconceptions surrounding MDMA therapy.
From the chemical imbalance debate to the side effects and contraindications, he paints an honest picture of what to expect. You'll also hear about the innovative 'mocking movie method' that helps neutralise traumatic memories by adding absurd elements like Mickey Mouse ears. If you’re curious about how MDMA could potentially transform mental health treatment or are just intrigued by the broader implications of psychedelics, this episode is a must-listen.
Robinson’s candid reflections and practical advice offer a fresh perspective on mental wellness. So, why should you tune in? Because this episode isn't just about MDMA; it's about breaking down barriers in mental health treatment and offering hope through innovative methods. Could this be the future of therapy?
