psychedelics

Asking if psychedelics are safe is a bit like asking if exercise is safe.

You can have a bad trip, or you can break your arm at the gym, but in both cases, the potential benefits are worth the risk.

Won't have any effect and it may be unsafe.

The common wisdom is to quit SSRIs for at least two weeks, ideally one full month, before a psychedelic trip.

Could I get some feedback on taking mushrooms while on antidepressants? There's a lot of contradictory information on the Internet...thanks 😊

Bad trips opens new perspectives.

Quality analogy Paul! Hope your day is going well!

how are psychedelics worth the risk smh.

no one breaks their arm in a gym bad comparison

I think the difference is that you can't do much to prevent a bad trip, while by taking the necessary precautions at the gym (warm up, proper technique, knowing when to stop, etc.) you cab be fairly certain you'll be safe.
