I enjoy exploring altered states of being and the first time I tried LSD, after maybe a week or so, I discovered I was suddenly capable of saying no to people. Before that I’d sacrifice my own wellbeing just so I could help another person with something minor. During the LSD trip I remember seeing myself in my mind and the other me told me “love yourself more”.

This is one account of hundrets, if not thousands, of ones similar to mine. LSD (and psychedelics in general) most certainly has properties that can be incredibly beneficial for mental health.

Per weed it helps you chill out lol, not much to say here, it’s alcohol lite but without being physically addictive. Wonderful for anxiety, just not long term most likely.

This is all awesome but any mind altering substance really needs to be used with a therapist when we are talking about average people in a large population. I’d also argue they both have benefits but their drawbacks are just too strong.

Weed is mostly non addictive but comes with other issues and isn’t perfect. Heart issues? Family history of schizophrenia? Either of those could be really bad. Is this a good argument for legalization and harm reduction? Yes. I’m not sure about widespread psychiatric use though. Perhaps more with a therapist but that therapist would be key - similar to the shamans of indigenous cultures.

I also totally agree with these not being long term. I love weed but the “420 smoke every dayyyyyyy” culture also ignores the need to work on yourself and do the work with a clear head. I think that internal (ideally drug free and sober) work gets you to the point of not only benefitting from these drugs but avoiding their abuse.
