Final major project (The Benefits of taking drugs) - Research part four

Instead of focusing on the negative effects of drug use, my teacher told me to stop being vague and also include the facts that some drugs are used to treat people medically. This post is not to promote people to take drugs its just presenting how these drugs  have minor benefits when consuming it.

MAGIC MUSHROOMS 

ALSO KNOWN AS PSILOCYBIN MUSHROOMS 

From the last research that I had done, I discovered that Psilocybin mushrooms cause people to have colorful hallucinations even if you ingested tiny amounts of it. Despite the drug giving people hallucinations it is said to help benefit people by decreasing the signs of cluster headaches, OCD and depression. This drug has a underlying impact on the brain that it has to be significant. Research that was submitted in the British Journal of Psychotheraphy in 2012 discovered that participations had enhanced recall which made the drug play a effective addition in psychotherapy. 

People even studied and found out that psilocybin mushrooms lessen the activity in the frontal of the brain that are hyperactive when a person has depression. 

ECSTASY

ALSO KNOWN AS MDMA 

Despite Ecstasy leaving abusers to experience hallucinations and a high level of energy, it is said to have some benefits. The same hallucinogenic and high energy properties is which what makes this drug so popular in party scenes, and what makes it suitable in treating PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder)

Some researchers have discovered that ecstasy even has long-lasting anti-cancer belongings for leukaemia, lymphoma and myeloma and in 2011, researches from the University of Birmingham uncovered out that an altered form of ecstasy was 100 times more overpowering in killing cancer cells than MDMA.

COCAINE 

Cocaine is also said to have a lot of benefits too. This drug can be used as a vital part of anesethic for surgical procedures because of its fast responding numbing properties. If cocaine is even mixed with other substances such as TAC it could treat skin lacerations as the drug is effective in narrowing blood vessels.
