Researchers went to festivals to study psychedelic drugs and found they left people feeling happy and connected hours after the high wore off
1,200 Americans and Brits self-reported feelings of positivity and increased social connectedness while on psychedelics. The study took place over a series of music festivals, where participants said they had transformative experiences. This is part of a resurgence in research on psychedelics and their possible health benefits. Visit Insider's homepage for more As psychedelics are being embraced as a potential treatment for mental health conditions, new research suggests that mind-altering substances like 'magic' mushrooms leave people feeling positive and socially connected hours after the high wears off. The study by Yale University, surveying 1,200 Brits and Americans at six music festivals, provided evidence to support lab-based research that psychedelic drugs can boost wellbeing. Between 2015 and 2017, teams of researchers set up "Play Games for Science" booths in busy areas at their selected festivals between 10 AM and 1 PM, encouraging people to come and speak to them. Participants spent 15 minutes filling out surveys on their use of psychoactive substances, as well as age, gender, level of religiousness, political orientation and level of education.
