The Science Behind Psychedelic Healing
At Zero Dark Birdie, we combine cutting-edge neuroscience and ancient plant medicine traditions to help veterans overcome PTSD, TBI, depression, and moral injury. Here’s the research that drives our mission.
1. MDMA-Assisted Therapy for PTSD
In a Phase 3 clinical trial by MAPS, 88% of participants saw significant symptom reduction and 67% no longer met criteria for PTSD. Many were combat veterans. MDMA therapy is expected to receive FDA approval as early as 2025.
2. Psilocybin for Depression and Suicidality
Research from Johns Hopkins University found that psilocybin sessions significantly reduced depression and suicidal thoughts in over 70% of participants—within just days of treatment.
3. Ibogaine and 5-MeO-DMT for TBI & PTSD
Studies from Stanford University and VETS Inc. report major improvements in cognitive clarity, depression, and trauma symptoms in veterans who underwent treatment with Ibogaine and 5-MeO-DMT.
4. Ayahuasca for Emotional Healing
Veterans participating in supervised Ayahuasca ceremonies (ICEERS, Veterans of War) reported deep emotional breakthroughs, spiritual insight, and long-term reductions in PTSD and anxiety.
5. LSD Microdosing for Emotional Regulation
Early studies from University of Basel and the Beckley Foundation suggest LSD microdosing improves mood, focus, and emotional resilience in high-functioning trauma survivors.
