SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Global Psychedelic Survey 2025
DESCRIPTION:This talk is part of the Michigan Psychedelic Center's 2026 Seminar Series: Psychedelics — From Cells to Society. Learn more about the series at michmed.org/rwYjR.\n\nBackground\nPsychedelic substances have been used for millennia among communities around the world. Understanding the diverse lived experiences of people who use psychedelics is critical to inclusively advancing psychedelic-related public policy\, harm reduction and clinical study design.\n\nMethods\nThe Global Psychedelic Survey (GPS) 2025 is an online multi-lingual cross-sectional international survey developed by over 80 academic collaborators and 40 non-government organizations. It gathered details on characteristics\, psychedelic and other substance use\, and associated self-reported outcomes among a global sample of people who use psychedelics. \n\nResults\nGPS 2025 recruited 9087 respondents (mean age: 41.8 years) from 105 countries. Most respondents had used psilocybin (87.3%)\, LSD (73.4%) and MDMA (71.9%). Personal growth was the most cited reason for use (85.7%)\, followed by recreation (61.5%)\, and general wellbeing (61.3%). We found significant regional differences in primary variables like access (e.g.\, more regulated access in Canada/USA\, online dealer access in Asia\, spiritual leader access in Central/South America)\, substances used (e.g.\, more nitrous oxide and ketamine use in Canada/USA and Oceania\, synthetic tryptamine use in Asia)\, and reasons for use (e.g.\, more use for mental and physical health in Canada/US\, boredom and productivity in Asia).\n\nDiscussion\nGPS 2025 extends our understanding of global psychedelic use\, revealing a complex and heterogeneous global community that spans continents\, languages\, and traditions. Continued efforts to integrate community-based evidence with clinical research and international policy development will be essential to optimize the potential personal\, public health and therapeutic benefits of psychedelics\, while minimizing associated risks and harms.\n\nSpeaker\nPhilippe Lucas\, PhD\, is a cannabis and psychedelic researcher and a lifelong safe access advocate. In 1999\, Philippe founded the Vancouver Island Compassion Society\, one of Canada’s first medical cannabis dispensaries\, and he was founding Board Chair of the Multidisciplinary Association of Psychedelic Studies Canada. Following a term on Victoria’s City Council\, he worked as VP\, Global Patient Research & Access at Tilray\, where he oversaw a comprehensive international clinical and observational cannabis research program. Currently\, he is Director\, Research & Safe Access at MAPS\, and a Research Affiliate at the University of Michigan’s Psychedelic Center\, and his studies include the Global Psychedelic Survey 2023/25.
