Summary
AI-generated from the abstractPosthypnotic suggestion can induce experiences resembling those produced by MDMA, including feelings of empathy, openness, and emotional warmth, without the drug itself. The observations suggest that the subjective effects of MDMA may be partially replicable through psychological mechanisms alone, raising questions about the role of set and setting in psychedelic-assisted therapy.
