Challenging Psychedelic Experiences Project

The Project aims to learn more about post-psychedelic difficulties and what helps people recover from them; communicate those findings to the general public; and support those experiencing post-psychedelic difficulties.

In the past three years the project has had 500+ attendees at their online support group, published 250+ stories on the Ecstatic Integration newsletter (18,000+ subscribers), had 1,500+ attendees across 11 Psychedelic Safety Seminars, and published 9 academic articles.

Supported by Anonymous benefactors, through Emergence Benefactors

The Director of the Project is Jules Evans.

July 26 Update

CPEP continues to publish papers on psychedelic harms and harm reduction – recent papers include a paper on beliefs in and experiences of sorcery among psychedelic users, and an analysis of adverse events data from the Global Psychedelic Survey. We’ve just launched a database and network for therapists and psychiatrists who work on post-psychedelic difficulties – part of a project to try and improve the evidence base and standard of care that those in post-psychedelic crisis receive. https://challengingpsychedelicexperiences.com/find-professional-support/
