Forgive me if I'm being simplistic and/or ignorant about it, but can psychedelics such as LSD not also result in somewhat of the opposite effect, e.g. psychosis? (Though it seems to me that if ECT is considered, calculated risks are on the table already.)
- TheAdamAndChe 6y agoYes, LSD and other psychedelics can trigger psychosis. There's definitely a risk-vs-reward calculation that must be made. I'd either be dead or be a ne'er-do-well without intervention though.
- anyfoo 6y agoCertainly a better outcome indeed. And in that calculation not very different from things like chemotherapy or other cancer treatments after all.
