    Welcome to Other People’s Problems - On Drugs

    With the growing acceptance of psychedelic therapy, questions arise about the ethics, effectiveness, and experiences it brings. In this episode, Hillary addresses those questions in conversation with Geoff Turner, the host of CBC’s On Drugs podcast. Through historical clips and moments from actual sessions, they explore how substances are reshaping mental health treatment — including Hillary’s own experience as a patient — to talk about how psychedelic psychotherapy works. Using clips of the upcoming episodes, they talk about the big ethical questions, the big scientific questions, and what Hillary sees as the enormous promise of psychedelics to help people with their mental health.  New episodes will be released weekly on Mondays.

    Brandi: Cult Control and Social Anxiety

    Brandi (not her real name) has social anxiety because she grew up in a cult where members gathered regularly around her family’s dinner table to talk about mortality and sin. To cope, Brandi hid at the top of the stairs in silence, afraid to even go get a snack. In this session using cannabis, she imagines herself and Hillary bulldozing into the room, taking a stand on the kitchen table together, and demanding freedom.

    Hillary: Pregnancy Loss and Nearly Dying

    In this Other People’s Problems first, Hillary lets us see her as the patient in this deeply personal cannabis session of her own. She feels back into the pain and heartbreak of miscarrying twins and a subsequent freak hemorrhage that nearly killed her. As she screams, “No!” and “It’s mine!,” she confronts the horror of watching first responders struggle to keep her alive and the feeling of losing control of what was happening to her own body.  New episodes will be released weekly on Mondays.

    David: A Childhood of Fear and Few Memories

    When David began to do therapy using cannabis with Hillary, he had very few childhood memories. So he was surprised to find a really big question about whether he was beaten surface in his consciousness. In this session, we hear David grappling with the truth of what happened to him.
