Healing Wounds: Trauma, Psychedelic Therapy, and Cannabis Insights

Part of it, I revisited that situation on this medicine and was able to kind of replay it a bit and detach from the fear response and go more into how I actually did something that saved this person's life and I could have left him behind and ditched him there, and I probably should have on a safety level.
In this episode of 'Flight of Thoughts', Jake reconnects with Charlie Bronson, a paramedic and former 9-1-1 call taker with a background in Biomedical Sciences and Psychology. They delve into the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on the rise in violent workplace incidents, sharing firsthand experiences from the frontlines. Jake opens up about his recent battle with post-traumatic stress injury and the crucial steps he took to address it before it overwhelmed him.
One of the standout moments is Jake's recounting of an MDMA-assisted therapy session that helped him release significant trauma, guided by a supportive friend and counselor. The discussion also touches on the benefits of cannabis for health and wellness, offering practical tips for enhancing its enjoyment. As they share intense stories from their emergency medical services careers, they emphasize the importance of harm reduction and community crisis work.
The episode is a candid exploration of trauma, resilience, and unconventional therapies that provide hope and healing for those grappling with mental health challenges.
