Psychedelic compounds are gaining renewed attention across disciplines for their profound psychological and neurobiological effects. Emerging research highlights their efficacy in treating mood disorders, PTSD, and addiction by enhancing neuroplasticity and disrupting maladaptive cognitive patterns. From a psychological standpoint, psychedelics facilitate introspection, emotional processing, and therapeutic breakthroughs. Neuroscientific findings reveal altered brain network dynamics, while anthropological and philosophical perspectives contextualize their cultural and existential significance. In medicine, they offer novel interventions for chronic pain and palliative care. The present review article underscores the need for rigorous, ethically grounded research to explore psychedelics’ potential in reshaping mental health paradigms and cognitive science from a multidisciplinary perspective.
