Drugs are bad... or are they? Razor examines the psychedelic revolution taking place in the fields of medicinal and psychological research, where it's proving to have a radical impact in the treatment of mental health conditions. 

Emma Keeling talks to Rick Doblin from the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies, who has just published the results of a successful Phase 3 clinical trial using MDMA to treat war veterans with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). We also hear from a reform activist whose own experience with depression was transformed by a psychedelic treatment.
