How about the possibility for HPPD, I think that's universal to all psychedelics?
- proverbialbunny 7y agoIt's so rare it isn't studied, so I can't say if 5-Meo can cause it. HPPD in theory is caused by a strong intense memory, and when something familiar to that memory occurs it brings that person back to that mental place. If this is what is going on, then you're going to have a hard time forming a strong memory to something when you're passed out or so out of it you're not paying attention to the setting around you. So, I imagine HPPD is not a thing in 5-Meo, but as I said there are not studies on it. HPPD is rare.
- enimodas 7y agoHPPD is not rare, and is not what you are describing. See for one https://slatestarcodex.com/2019/09/11/lots-of-people-going-around-with-mild-hallucinations-all-the-time/ https://slatestarcodex.com/2019/09/11/lots-of-people-going-a... , or the relevant subreddit.
