LSD has risks, especially if you're already prone to certain kinds of mental illness (you might not know it), but addiction isn't really one of them.

Going for a walk can also rewire your brain, but doing so on LSD will probably rewire it more quickly. Whether that's good or bad depends on whether you do a good job with the rewiring. It comes down to how well you trust yourself.

Though you can have some solid hints. First it's important to say we are talking about psychosis related illnesses.

First one is nobody had mental illness in your family. Second one is your age : most mental illness develop when you are a teenager or in your early twenties. If you are 30+, you can consider that LSD will not reveal anything hidden.

Though you still get the risk of bad trip, which you can manage with a good set & setting and not being alone if you prefer.
