Summary
- LSD shows promise for anxiety treatment. A Phase 2b clinical trial found that 100 micrograms of MM120 (pharmaceutical LSD) reduced anxiety significantly with lasting effects
- Study results were encouraging. Researchers noted that 65% of participants experienced clinical response at optimal dosing, with 47.5% achieving remission that sustained through 12 weeks of follow-up
- Safety profile was manageable. Most side effects occurred during dosing sessions and resolved quickly, with visual changes and nausea being most common under medical supervision
- Note that LSD remains illegal. It is currently classified as Schedule I controlled substance, accessible only through approved clinical trials, with results of Phase 3 trials expected by 2026
- In the meantime, natural anxiety alternatives exist. Breathing techniques like nasal breathing, horizontal breathing patterns, and controlled breathing practices can help manage anxiety symptoms without medication
