Psychedelics have a tendency to amplify whatever is already going on in your mind. If you're already feeling depressed or anxious you can be in for a bad time.

Psychedelics have a tendency to amplify whatever is already going on in your mind. If you're already feeling depressed or anxious you can be in for a bad time. Sometimes they can help you work through things like this. But I've had more than a few friends with predispositions to depression or mental illness take a bad turn after experimenting with mind-altering drugs.
I strongly advise caution to anyone trying to self-medicate like this.
