Psychedelics and Anxiety Relief

the researchers found that it's possible to target just the anxiety-relieving effects of psychedelics.

This study looks at how psychedelic drugs like DOI (a chemical similar to compounds in "magic mushrooms") can help with anxiety, but without causing the intense hallucinations usually associated with psychedelics. Researchers focused on the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) in mice, a part of the brain that plays a key role in mood and behavior.
