I think the consensus is psychedelics can trigger or exacerbate mental illness you're already predisposed to. If your family has a history of mental illness you should probably avoid psychedelics. Even if they don't it might be wise to wait until your late 20s to see if any signs of mental illness appear.
But that's not really any different than people predisposed to heart disease smoking or drinking alcohol or eating McDonalds.

- dzelzs 8y agoThe psychodelics will not cause the illness in any way or form - rather the "experience" might trigger an existing one (that potentially can be caused by anything). Although thats still fits with the point about having a disposition to something and acting accordingly. AKA using common sense :D
