Yeah thats not what happened, if we are referring to the same incident.

He had had a close friend pass recently and he had, within the last few weeks, used mushrooms to help treat the depression/grief. Ie he did not crash the plane mid psychotic break slash psychadelic trip.

I never claimed that he was mid-trip? But by his own admission, the use of mushrooms induced some form of psychosis that distorted his ability to perceive time or understand what and what is not reality. I fully support decriminalization of psychedelics, but I also don’t think they’re free from harms, especially for those with mental health problems.
