For years the mainstream self-help gurus have been telling us all to...

DO PSYCHEDELICS! Psychedelics will make you more conscious, man... Psychedelics will help you overcome your addictions and transform! Psychedelics will help you find true happiness and your purpose in life...

Funny thing, Jordan Peterson was a big fan of psychedelics. He had it all, wealth, worldwide celebrity, a vast army of superfans, and best-selling books YET he apparently succumbed to Benzodiazepine drug addiction and almost killed himself.

Gee whiz, Why didn't he just do some of those magical mushrooms to deal with his anxiety? Instead of doing this extremely risky drug and then recklessly upping the dosage. I've known since I was about 14-years-old that benzos were bad and yet Jordan, a psychology doctor, chose to use and abuse them.

I've watched a number of Jordan's videos and it didn't seem like he was into Biohacking. A biohacker would use tools like meditation, exercise, and Adaptogens to deal with anxiety and vexations of celebrity. A Biohacker would have known to taper off Benzos with things like Selank, and maybe Kratom or Memantine.

This episode speaks volumes about pharmaceuticals and psychiatry. And should also make anyone doubt that Psychedelics are cure-all miracle medicine, they sometimes bear bad fruit.
