My topic I chose is: Psychedelics can help with the treatment of mental illnesses. I basically need you to write a paper siding with the side that psychedelics can be used to treat mental illnesses.
This paper has two sides, and I chose in favor of psychedelic, but you can also include a paragraph on why people may think psychedlics are bad and may not work with the treatment etc. (like one paragraph that's skeptical towards the idea of it WITHOUT SHOOTING DOWN the complete argument of why psychedelics can treat mental illnesses such as depression etc.
If you don't feel comfortable writing this please reach out. If you have questions please reach out. I WILL NOT ACCEPT PLAGIARIZED WORK.
