Today is International Harm Reduction Day! Let's revisit the first peer-reviewed study to investigate the effectiveness of the Fireside Project's psychedelic support line. Working with data collected by@firesideproject between April 2021 and September 2022, UCSF researchers analyzed anonymous survey data from over 800 Fireside callers. According to the authors, "to our knowledge these are the first data suggesting that a lack of support during the process of psychedelic integration may lead to harm." As discussed further in the paper, these positive findings are similar to data drawn from other community mental health support hotlines. According to the researchers, the Fireside Project has been effective in reducing the risks and harms of psychedelic use. Noting the limitations of self-reported data and Fireside's data collection processes, the authors conclude that there is an "ethical imperative to delineate responsible solutions to reduce the risks associated with naturalistic psychedelic use". #harmreduction #firesideproject #psychedelictok
