With possibly great reward comes relatively great risk. Anybody currently mentally unstable or with family history of these things shouldn't touch psychedelics, or any other drug including higher doses of alcohol, probably ever. There are not that many people in the western world who never ever got drunk. During one of few mushroom experiences I encountered, i was lying in the bed, alone, eyes closed. I gradually lost all the sensory inputs from whole body, perceiving via some sort of 'inner vision'. I got dissolved into white mist of atoms and just swirled around in an endless dance to the tune of some relaxing music playing in real world. When coming down, I literally slowly assembled myself back to original me, atom by atom, first the mind, then rediscovery of body, eyes, taste and so on. I felt very strongly that if something was broken in me, this assembly back wouldn't work very well, or at least it would reveal some dark spots in my personality. Maybe not trigger them, who knows. I could break the experience anytime if I wanted, but there was no need, it was beautiful all the way through.
