psycherelated

Psycherelated is a coined term used to describe phenomena, research, and discourse that lie at the intersection of psychology and psychedelic science, including the study of altered states of consciousness, the psychological effects of psychedelic substances, and therapeutic contexts.

The word blends "psyche" or "psychology" with "psychedelic," signaling a fusion of mental processes and psychedelic experiences. It remains informal and is most often used in academic, media, and community discussions rather than as a formal clinical or diagnostic term.

In practice, psycherelated discussions cover psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy, research into neural correlates of altered states, and phenomenological reports of experiences such as ego dissolution or spiritual insights.

Ethical and methodological considerations emphasize safety, informed consent, appropriate setting and dosing, integration of insights, and the need for rigorous trials to determine efficacy and risks.

Related topics include psychedelic-assisted therapy, neuropharmacology, consciousness studies, and psychiatric research; psycherelated serves as a descriptive umbrella for work that connects mental processes with psychedelic science.
