Within student life, it seems as though alcohol and drugs are often not considered a problem. But what is the actual prevailing norm and how do we deal with this? Lina and William asked students at the university (and at a party) about their opinions, and where they set their limits with drug use. They also interviewed Michiel van Elk, a researcher and psychology professor at Leiden University, about his knowledge of psychedelics, including their actual potential for healthcare. Lastly, they talked to a psychology student about his personal experiences with drug use, the pressure to drink alcohol, and his fascination with psychedelics research.
