Psychedelic Researchers at the University of Ottawa to see how psychedelic drugs affect people with psychosis or symptoms of psychosis. Psychedelic research is showing great promise for medical use for several conditions such as addiction, anxiety, and depression. However, virtually no data has been gathered on how people with psychotic symptoms respond and experience 

psychedelics since the First Wave of Psychedelic Research that occurred in the 1950s and 60s. It would be greatly appreciated If you could complete the survey and contribute to our further understanding of psychotic symptoms and psychedelics as we navigate new frontiers in psychedelic medicine.
