[quote=Anonymous]I am 46 and don't smoke cigarettes, despite living my childhood in country where many people around me smoked, including my parents, don't drink, despite many people around me drinking, and don't do marijuana in any form, psychedelics or anything other than caffeine... which is also a legal addictive stimulant. No one I know well takes marijuana or psychedelics. Everyone I know drinks coffee or tea.

I'm a research scientist, my husband is a doctor, and we are fully aware of the medical risks of these substances, as well as the benefits. For everything except caffeine, the benefits do not outweigh the disadvantages.

If you have PTSD or intractable pain that cannot be managed any other way, then that would be good reason to take substances medicinally, with the approval of a doctor. It's ENTIRELY DIFFERENT from making an uninformed, risky, non-medically approved decision on your own, to take such substances. Notably, for marijuana and psychedelics, sourcing is risky. The substances of today are not the same as those of yesteryear.
