One personal counterpoint, as a non-user: I trained under an elite alpinist for 3+ years. This is is someone who'd achieved much in their field, was a happy parent and generally seemed successful and content. We had a lot of intimate conversations (daily check-ins, 365 days a year). On the topic of existential dread and depression, he stated that the single most impactful thing he'd ever experienced was one shroom trip. He wasn't a regular user; just this single trip had a lasting effect on him. I've heard similar from less familiar sources, who are similarly successful and aren't drugged out. That said, I appreciate you're being skeptical here. I know more than one "medical cannabis" user who became a deadbeat. Dosing control needs to be a thing in this space, it's just a free-for-all right now.
