Companion Tantalus

This isn't funny...and it does not surprise me either...still...

What hits me as funny is the dark humor of the whole 'daddy and nanny' state of affairs challenging us to exercise divine gifts of now-power, consciousness, judgement, freedom, and choice...and much and many more!  How much theraputic potential is buried in our backyards...and who has the courgage to dig up these pandora's boxes and genie bottles then dare to activate the wondrous possibilites...and risk being tantalized?

LSD helps alcoholics put down the botttle

" A single dose of the hallucinogenic drug LSD is an effective treatment for alcoholism - according to research led by a British doctor more than 40 years ago.Studies on thousands of alcoholics treated with the drug in the early 1960s - before it became popular as a psychedelic street drug - showed it helped trigger a change in mental attitude leading drinkers to quit. But, in spite of its promise, the therapeutic potential of the drug has been ignored since it was banned worldwide in the late 1960s as a threat to public safety.Now a historian who unearthed the research, led by British psychiatrist Humphrey Osmond and carried out in Canada, has interviewed the participants four decades on and says the results are dramatic."
