READ THE BOOK ---> https://a.co/d/4wOFNoJ
I decided to put the trip reports in a published book format. If you want to read my MDMA trip reports for yourself, A Trip with the Birds can now be purchased on Amazon!

I did MDMA therapy. TWICE. It sort of feels like a confession, and I suppose it is, but it has been the most transformative thing I have ever done in my life. I decided to try MDMA for PTSD and s*xual assault trauma. It helped me so much that it would feel inauthentic if I didn't share my experiences.

In this episode, I am talking as if we were talking over coffee, if you want to know what actually went on during my sessions please visit michaelapaluck.com/mdmatherapy.

I hope you find this helpful and enjoy the show!

DISCLAIMER:

This podcast and post is not a recommendation of any kind. MDMA is illegal. I’m not recommending you participate in any illegal activities or do anything without consulting your doctor or licensed therapist. I don’t know what’s right for you; only you know that. This journey is not for the faint of heart nor anyone looking for a first-class ticket to easy street.

I’m only sharing my experiences in this document. I won’t be explaining how it works, why it works, or anything else about the process. I have linked additional resources and books on the final page if you want to do more research about trauma or MDMA therapy.

I also go into details about the sexual assault I experienced in this post. Consider yourself warned.

Welcome to my new series called Thing I was Wrong About! In this series, I'm dive into topics that I was in fact, wrong about.

In today's episode, I'm diving into things I was wrong about MDMA Therapy. If anyone would have asked me 3-4 years ago if I would have even thought about MDMA therapy or any other psychedelic therapy, I would have said not only no but hell no.

Not only do I feel wrong about my judgment of MDMA therapy, but I believe it is anything but a drug--it's a medicine.

My hope in discussing all these topics is to help you unlock your next door for whatever that is in life, and I've always hoped in sharing my experiences whether in life or around trauma that I could ease the suffering of someone else even if it's only a little bit. 

If you enjoyed the episode, please leave a review and tell me what you liked most about it. :-) if you want to send me a DM on Instagram, you can do so by clicking here!

Welcome to my new series called Thing I was Wrong About! In this series, I dive into a variety of topics that I was, in fact, wrong about.

In today's episode, I'm diving into things I was wrong about around trauma. If anyone would have asked me 12-18 months ago if I knew a lot about trauma, I would have said yes without hesitation, and I did to a certain extent.

One could say I knew more than 'the average person' about trauma but what I was wrong about, was a missing key to unlock the next door in my healing journey.

My hope in discussing all these topics is to help you unlock your next door for whatever that is in life, and I've always hoped in sharing my experiences whether in life or around trauma that I could ease the suffering of someone else even if it's only a little bit.
