From the first comment I read which was posted about 30 minutes prior to yours:
>And when people say someone has been transformed for the worse after taking Ayahuasca what does that really mean? Worse for who? What's really good and bad?
Your description of how he changed seems objectively neutral; but disappointing for you because you can no longer identify with him.
>he’s probably happier, but at the cost of transplanting himself to an entirely new friend group and lifestyle
Honestly I don't get how you can perceive that he's happier, but still see him as having changed "for the worse".

Well, from his perspective it's a worse change in personality, but from his friend's perspective he could be happier. So he's recognizing that his friend seems happier despite the change in personality he perceives to be bad.

Is it is "for the better" for someone to be happy and ignorant/naive/delusional or to be of sound mind and unhappy? Not that this applies to the OP's post, but I've known people that have changed (by drugs or otherwise) where they've become happier, but also less mentally stable.
