> in my experience drug addicts are not very good at hiding it when they lose control

Not sure if it's relevant, but psychedelics (mushrooms) broke a college friend after minimal recreational use. Like, maybe twice, with zero past history of any other controlled substance.

His delusions were similar to what you described. In hindsight, I wasn't qualified to handle his deeply troubled mind.

You did the right thing contacting family and seeking professional help.

If he harms himself, it's not your fault.

Did your friend suffer permanent harm?
Terminal, sadly.
Oh my. Hard to contemplate.
