A close family member of mine became a schizophrenic after doing hallucinogens. Last time I looked at some research it is suggested that hallucinogens can “activate” dormant mental illnesses.
- comfypotato 4y agoThat’s exactly the risk I’m pointing too. Ignoramuses in the medical community will occasionally go as far as to say “take these warnings with a grain of salt” trying to deem them coincidences. Any seasoned hippy (and many young people who frequent festivals and/or are experienced with the scene) will tell you to be careful. As the source I linked indicates, there is hard evidence behind the seasoned-hippy-wisdom. Most research these days is focused on the benefits of these drugs (and rightfully so; it’s promising research). That being said, there are risks associated with their use that are very different (and potentially more serious) than something like cannabis or alcohol.
