It is worth noting that the tether to reality is consensus-based, and that noone really knows why the drugs work. For example, consider philosophical idealism as compared to philosophical dualism or materialism. Besides materialism the other two frameworks have a long and respected history. One could say the medication is a transpersonal mental process as seen from across a dissociative boundary. So reality should really be in quotes.
