psychedelics

Does anyone have any links to papers about using psychedelics, LSD and Psilocybin in particular, to help rewire the brain to improve certain tasks or make certain neural networks weaker?

Here are some key papers on how psychedelics like LSD and psilocybin may rewire the brain:

	1.	Psilocybin for treatment-resistant depression - This study shows how psilocybin alters brain connectivity, potentially weakening negative thought patterns.
	•	Link: PubMed
	2.	Psilocybin’s effect on cognitive flexibility - Explores how psilocybin affects brain networks to improve cognitive tasks.
	•	Link: Frontiers in Psychology
	3.	LSD and emotional processing - Discusses how LSD enhances creativity and cognitive performance by affecting neural connectivity.
	•	Link: Nature
	4.	Psilocybin-induced neuroplasticity - Highlights psilocybin’s potential to promote brain repair and improve learning.
	•	Link: Nature Neuroscience

These papers explore how psychedelics might enhance cognitive functions by altering neural networks.
