I see the same thing happening in people smoke marijuana where any claim that it can have harmful effects for some or with abuse is met with “yeah well what do you know, i read this other thing and i never had issues myself”.
- JohnMakin 2y agoIt seems to me that in this case the issue was someone out of their mind high on shrooms had immediate access to a gun, not the “mentally ill person does drugs and dies” trope which is quite tired and I’m pretty sure not backed by any kind of science. I only posted my reply because comments like these add to the stigma of mental illness and may make people who are suffering less willing to try these types of treatments.
