A Therapeutic Revolution for treating Post Traumatic Stress Disorder: An estimated 8% of Americans − 24.4 million people − have PTSD at any given time. That is equal to the total population of Texas. Yet there is hope. Thanks to the efforts of Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies (MAPS), MDMA has been approved for final trials to treat PTSD before possible legalization. FDA could make drug legal by 2021. The potential for curing PTSD, Anxiety and Depression is huge.
