How many of them get there from intentionally jumping of a roof or carving up their arm? I suspect most are simple dumb accidents, like people have with alcohol, but of a different variety.
- mycodendral 1y agoHave you been around someone experiencing psychedelic induced psychosis? They are often quite a danger to themselves and others. Usually requiring sedative/chemical restraint & police intervention by EMS. Ask any EMT about this.
- s1artibartfast 1y agoYes, I have seen several, including one that had to be forcibly sedated in the dirt. I have also seen many drunks fighting others and police. Over 15 years at burning man, I have seen many people injured and maimed doing stupid things while high. That said, the type of intentional self harm described above is basically unheard of. Mostly dumb accidents and some suicides. To the extent there is any unique risk, it is more about long term psychiatric issues
