These days, adults. But I had a similar group of friends in High School and the people I was closest to - including a core group we referred to as the Fry Kids - are now all successful and well adjusted adults in their early 40s. I did mushrooms with one of them the other day! Though most of them do few if any drugs any more. As for "meltdowns" aka "bad trips", I have seen plenty and heard about plenty more. But what I never saw or heard about were long-lasting effects after the bad trip. I'd also note that DMT is known for it's intensity and dramatic after-effects. I wouldn't lump it in with those other drugs.
