Two Models in Psychedelic Psychiatry: From Psychotherapeutic Tool to Experimental Psychosis in Spain and France (1955–1968)

TWO MODELS OF PSYCHEDELIC PSYCHIATRY: FROM PSYCHOTHERAPEUTIC TOOL TO EXPERIMENTAL PSYCHOSIS IN SPAIN AND FRANCE (1955–1968)

Early European psychedelic psychiatry was shaped not by a single paradigm, but by the coexistence of interconnected models emphasizing experimental psychopathology and biological psychiatry in France, and psychotherapeutic applications in Spain.

The aim of the study is to analyze the competing yet interconnected models of psychedelic psychiatry that emerged in Spain and France between 1955 and 1968, and to examine how these models shaped the therapeutic and scientific use of LSD and psilocybin. The methodology involved a comparative historical analysis of seven Spanish publications on psychiatric research with psychedelics during the 1950s and 1960s. The publications were classified according to the use of psychedelics as (1) a model of experimental psychosis, (2) a biological or pharmacological treatment, and (3) an adjunct to psychotherapy; the findings were compared with the 2023 review by Zoe Dubus and colleagues on the history of psychedelic practice in France. The poster presents studies conducted between 1953 and 1965 on a timeline organized by country and substance, including the work of Gastaut, Heim, Delay, Robert, Ey, Lanter, Weil, Quétin, and Widlöcher in France, and Rof Carballo and González Morado, Rojo Sierra, Ruiz Ogara, Granell, and Rojo Sierra and Seda Díaz in Spain. While French research focused primarily on experimental psychopathology and biological psychiatry, Spanish researchers placed greater emphasis on psychotherapeutic applications and the enhancement of affective communication. The authors highlight the existence of psychiatric circles in Spain that were open to innovative therapeutic and scientific approaches despite the Franco dictatorship, noting that the relationship between the political regime and psychiatric research was more complex than assumed. In conclusion, they suggest that similar substances acquired different meanings and clinical functions depending on local scientific cultures, institutional settings, and professional traditions, and that these historical trajectories may help illuminate the tensions between neurobiological and psychotherapeutic approaches in today's psychedelic renaissance.
