Psilocybin's Erasure of EGO
The Psychoanalytic Review December 1, 2023 Gary Ahlskog 2 citations
A psychoanalyst describes his own psilocybin experience and compares it with the psychoanalytic journey, noting that both reveal unconscious dynamics. The article explores similarities and differences between the two types of journeys and suggests that psilocybin can deepen psychoanalytic understanding while psychoanalysis can help interpret psychedelic sessions. Patients may benefit from integrating insights from both approaches.
