amber Lyon used to work for CNN
as a correspondent and journalist and
apparently she started experiencing some really serious symptoms
up depression and post-traumatic stress disorder
because of her work so she says quote for me
I was out in the field for 10 years covering violence fighting slavery
non sorry covering violence fighting
slavery drug abuse the underbelly of society I saw the worst of the worst in
my career and I was kinda absorbing the pain of others
I started to have problems sleeping problems with short term memory
it got so bad that I could write and I'm a writer that's why I knew something was
wrong
so what happened is she became very interested in
a psychedelic drugs she first heard about them from
but Joel Rogin she was on his show
recently in he discusses them quite a bit also when they had a conversation
about them so she said fuck it
I'll let me try she actually hopped on a plane went to the middle the fuckin
jungle somewhere in
one on one of these the trips going through like a whole shamanistic ritual
and according to her I think she did a few of those trips I'm not sure whether
the drug specifically was Iowa's go or DMT
from which are both a slightly different psychedelic compounds I think but
she now says that it legitimately changed her life
like she was able to the hit the reset button
on her life and kinda wipe the slate clean and her mind in a guy ready for
anxiety in her depression and her PTSD
so she decided to do now is she married
her two worlds together so she started a website called a reset dot meee
reset doubt me it's an independent psychedelic
journalism website according to her and its gonna give people
all of the information that they need about all of these different drugs
specifically again psychedelic drugs or hallucinogens whether it's DMT your
Iowa oskar even psilocybe in mushroom stuff like that
and this is really interesting man this is really
arm this really peaked my interest for a few reasons I mean
you guys know I always talk about drugs on the show here
and I'm one of those people who
I'm a fan of drugs that are
that are more pharmaceutical grade I know a lot of people like to
Turkcell after those drugs but that's really
because some people abused and the thing called are all bad anything that like a
scientist cuts and pace in a lab is better now wrong
I'd rather have scientists involved in the making up the drugs because you know
their pharmaceutical grade he knows the real shit
and you just need to make sure of course they don't use too much in your nine
idiot with them
and you know you don't get addicted but so I anything that he would bring me
up or bring me down so whether it's stress reliever or
something that's an upper like a you know at a roller something like that
which people always take to study I used to take his house
you know what go out partying it was fucking or made easy
it's very similar to cocaine basically it's like cocaine in a pill form that a
doctor approves
so I was Osama Sandoval those kinda drugs and of course I like alcohol and
stuff like that but I always for whatever reason I always had this
ornamental block when it came to
psychedelic drugs are hallucinogens because to me the idea of altering your
mood in one way or another is appealing
okay I'm fianna I'm feeling a little tired let me take this thing to pat me
up
are a.m. really excited by rather be mellow right now just lay back and watch
TV show take some to bring you down
but the idea of like let me take something and fuckin party with Scooby
Doo and Pamela Anderson in my room even if they're not there
that strange to me right but
up from reading with a lot of people say about the psychedelic drugs are
and hallucinogenic Sen aren't learning more about them
that's really not necessarily the case images makes you see shit that's not
there is supposedly opens up new pathways have thinking in you start
viewing things in a totally different way
and it really does in many cases hit the reset button
again her website called reset dot me. so it's appropriate
and the that's interesting so to have
in outlet now where people who are really into the psychedelic movement in
the
hallucinogen movement it
that's good like I see that as a very very overwhelming good thing because
there's so much information out there now
about da uppers and downers in the pharmaceutical drugs and even marijuana
and some other stuff but there's doesn't seem like there's as much
information and is not as socially it's not as socially acceptable to talk about
the psychedelics and thats I i think that's a problem I think
you know people are always gonna do them so then the question becomes where they
going to gather information from happening or they're taking is good how
do they know what to expect when they do take it
you know what kind of a trip is is a good trip like and what a bad trip like
in
I mean you can go down at least bullet point to fax and explain these things to
people
and give them more knowledge in knowledge is power of course and then
they can make him but more educated decision if they do take and when they
take and how they take it in this and that
so I think it's it definitely a good thing it's definitely an interesting
thing its about fuckin time that
you know we kinda we try to mainstream
the idea of all these different drugs because look at my saying that all drugs
are
good now are there some drugs a really bad yes and especially the ones that are
caught with
you know bit ridiculous shit like gasoline diesel fuel nail polish remover
I mean you name it news leaders like Crystal Method talking about a crocodile
which is like the poor man's cocaine or the poor man's heroin right
but those drugs you exist because drugs were illegal
if you actually had legal cocaine and legal opiates then
does wouldn't exist in the first place because there wouldn't you will need a
cheap alternative
June go to store and buy it you know you know regulated place and there would be
no
week would be illegal to cut wood diesel fuel eccentric center-right
but it's good to have more information about all these different drugs whether
they're stronger ones are weaker ones were middle-of-the-road wander ones that
are used a lot and I use a lot because information is always better
and a or you go girl thats all have the same
ember lying because this seems like a very revolutionary idea and one that the
internet
can really get behind it really make it successful
