Clue: If they are a guy with long hair. Or if they are a gal they might have flowers in their hair
- swores 3y agoHaving known a few people of those two physical descriptions, and quite a few people who've used psychedelics, in my small sample set you'd be looking at the wrong people. Change "long hair male" to "dreadlocks on a white male" and you'd have a point, but the majority of long-haired men I've known either wouldn't do drugs or are into non-psychedelics. And having spent a lot of time in clubs/festivals/house parties around drug use, of the many many users and dealers of psychedelics I've met... I don't think I could narrow down a single "look" that's more, or less, likely than any other. On the other hand, a) there is "a look" to facial expressions (not dissimilar to a weed "stoned" or amazed expression) that can be quite recognisable of somebody being under the influence - aided by things like super wide pupils and b) there are activities - such as being in a place where people are dancing to electronic music of some genre - where plenty of people use psychedelics and those faces can often be seen (though easily confused with expressions caused by other classes of drug).
- capableweb 3y agoI'd probably go by more of non-visual characteristics (openness, uncommon worldviews, unusually emphatic and so on) rather than just visual clues, but YMMV
- toast0 3y agoIt's hard to identify people to start talking to with those characteristics, as many of them are only apparent after you're in conversation.
- pessimizer 3y agoBetter clue: if you're friendly with them and they've talked about doing psychedelics.
