Its a schedule 1 drug for a reason. Many people have used psychedelics and have had permentant changes to their personality.

I think the hippie stereotype is indicative to how damaging psychedelics have on the mind. You look at these people they are happy but something is clearly wrong.

Ketamine is schedule 3. It is regularly prescribed.

Schedule 1 substances basically can’t be prescribed without very special circumstances and permission. (Marijuana is in this class in the USA, strangely enough, along with MDMA.)

Even methamphetamine and cocaine aren’t Schedule 1.

Ketamine is actually a Schedule 3 drug. Schedule 3 drugs have strict regulations but are not on the same level as Schedule 1 drugs. Schedule 1 is the most severe in terms of regulation.

Adderall is Schedule 2.

And marijuana is still schedule 1, surprisingly
i envy those people so very very much. i don't care how wrong it might seem to appear happy, sounds awesome.
