Abstract
Adults with alcohol use disorder who received two sessions of psilocybin-assisted therapy demonstrated personality shifts toward normalization of abnormal trait expression, a secondary analysis of a randomized trial has found. A decrease in impulsiveness was found to be associated with reduced drinking post-treatment, with the strongest effect for psilocybin-treated individuals who had engaged in moderate- or high-risk drinking before treatment.
