Anectodically, this is pretty rare. I know quite a lot of people who used psychedelics, and they are fine. I think some important safety points is to know family history of mental illness and not do then until later in life.

And obviously, start low and see how it goes.

Anecdotally I know so many people thrashing their lives and this of loved ones with alcohol and antidepressants while I can’t immediately think up of even a single one, okay I know one guy who was doing everything altogether, who went so badly down the spiral thanks to acid. And this one guy actually had a horrendous childhood with lotta abuse so perhaps was already scheduled for a cathartic experience.
