Mind Over Morphine –
Dec. 10, 2019 – Micro-dosing is a growing phenomenon that sees people use tiny amounts of drugs such as LSD to keep their addictions at bay during day-to-day life. This is illegal and can often lead to inadvertent trips. But the developers of 18-MC claim the modified drug has the ability to manipulate a person’s brain into hitting the reset button and turning off the sections responsible for cravings without these side-effects.
Private funding and animal testing has revealed it has the potential to offer hope for people battling with addiction to opiates, alcohol and nicotine. MindMed, a US-based startup, has bought the rights to 18-MC after the previous developer ran out of funding, and is bankrolling next year’s tests.
