Sažetak

Background: In the last few years, the use of psychedelics for therapeutic purposes has become an increasingly popular topic
in psychiatric science as well as in society in general. Because of that, this paper aims to discuss the current trends surrounding psychedelics
and their use for therapeutic purposes.
Method: We have made an overview of the available literature on psychedelics.
Results: Although some research on the use of psychedelics for therapeutic purposes gives promising results, they are still not
solid. The social context in which the discoveries related to psychedelics are interpreted is dominantly optimistic. However, potential
problems and pitfalls await us in the process of legalization and introduction of psychedelics into clinical practice.
Conclusion: Current knowledge about psychedelics still calls for caution. Maintaining a critical view and leading a wider social
discussion is necessary.
