One more anecdotal point: He arranged for a female spelunker to perform the same experiment later. She stayed underground for 100-some days. 14 months after her stay, she OD'd on barbiturates. There's a wikipedia article about her.

It doesn't seem like humans are designed to cope well with long isolation and detachment from reality, but deprivation tanks and other practices show significantly positive results.
