For example, preclinical studies have shown potent anti-inflammatory effects of 5-MeO-DMT (Dakic et al., 2017;Szabo, 2015), and cross-sectional survey studies have found reported reductions in depres-sion and anxiety among a sample of people who reported using 5-MeO-DMT in a ceremonial context Sepeda et al., 2019), and that people in the general population report improvement in several mental health conditions postconsumption, including improvements in depression, anxiety, PTSD, and addiction Cox, Moshman, Barsuglia, Lancelotta, & Davis, 2018;Davis et al., 2019). Furthermore, high ratings of personal meaning and spiritual significance, and moderate-to-strong acute mystical effects, associated with 5-MeO-DMT consumption have been reported , and recent prospective studies conducted in the natural environment have shown that 5-MeO-DMT administration is related to a decrease in depression and anxiety, as well as increases in satisfaction with life (Uthaug et al., 2019). ...
