idle thought: the more women complain about men not going to therapy, the more therapy gets coded feminine
the more interesting move would be to tell men to meditate and do psychedelics (not a claim about whether this is more or less effective than therapy)

~2/3 of ppl tried therapy but only ~1/2 tried psychedelics?
guys this is nuts, for the price of one hour with a therapist you can get so much acid that it'll do a factory reset on the universe

yeah here to say this, especially to the women, what the hell ladies?
Also one dose of psychedelics can be equivalent to *years* of therapy.

There’s a ton of variation between people in how easy it is to set up the right set and setting. You really need to have a friend group that can support you through the process, so there’s a chicken and egg problem.

as much as i want to normalize talking frankly about psychedelics i can’t endorse them too full-throatedly without caveats - real risks of getting seriously destabilized that people need to be aware of and work with responsibly
