Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Why can't it just be a rare side effect of psychedelics?

I had a friend who freaked out on acid. They found him naked in someone's yard. After trying to break shit at a friend's house, he freaked out and ran away.

Why can't it just be that 1/10k people lose it after psychedelics?

Because there was a multiple day gap between him taking them and him getting on this plane.

I've personally had depression and anxiety issues after tripping.

I believe that someone could have trouble telling between dream and reality. I've been close. Isn't fun.

Maybe it's mental illness.
