Of course, doing anything in moderation is obviously important.
As long as it were an optional thing (i.e. not forced on people like the traditional dystopian take), I don't see how letting people choose to change how they see the world would be a guaranteed negative outcome. Especially since that's pretty much literally the advice in every self-help book: look at things from a new perspective, get a new perspective on life, surround yourself with positive things, go where the scenery makes you most happy, be more cheerful, fake it 'til you make it, etc.
Obviously it could be abused by some (overstimulation/desensitization don't sound so bad compared to alternatives), but I imagine overall it'd be a net positive on the lives of more.
I guess we'll just have to wait and see!
