Just as respectfully -- neither does anyone in this thread. People are speaking very confidently about things that they have no basis to. For instance, are your mental health problems really solved, or only mitigated? If you stop taking the hallucinogens and the problems return, they aren't solved.
Obviously, I'm happy that you're suffering less. However, I'm highly skeptical that hallucinogens "solve" problems, instead of merely masking them. Hallucinogens may provide you with a feeling that you have a place in the universe, but they cannot provide an actual place for you. It takes work to find and create purpose in life. You can't create purpose with pills anymore than you can create strength with synthol injections.
Which is better -- a feeling backed by reality, or a feeling based on chemical reactions in your brain induced by a substance?

There are a hell of a lot of assumptions packed into this sentence. I encourage you to go research the current understanding of mental health. There is a lot we don't understand, but I think what we do understand certainly doesn't support the perspective you are presenting.
